Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesCheck in staff was so rude and unhelpful. The pool is tiny and there's only 1 real pool. Why??
Nice entertainment. Staff seems pleasant. Food at the buffet was better than many other resorts.

Ukraine1. Room could be cleaner. I think the cleaning staff missed on bathroom when preparing the room. Had to clean it ourselves as we didn’t want to waste time explaining what’s wrong. 2. I wish staff was smiling more. It feels they don’t like their job. I hope it’s because it’s very hot and they are tired and not because they are paid really low. They smiled when we tipped them. 3. Check in process took too long. Our room wasn’t ready at 15. No apologies were offered. 4. I wish there were bathrobes in the room.
1. It’s very green, beautiful landscapes. It feels like u live in a botanical garden. 2. Beach is amazing and we were lucky with lack of sea weed. 3. Food was good, but it’s hard to book restaurants if u stay for a few nights only.

ColombiaMost of the staff is quite rude, unless you tip them they don't listen to you and have a dismissive behavior, it seems that they don't want to work in this place. The only exception is the staff at the pool bar. The facilities are very nice but lack maintenance, the paint is lifted, the pool is missing tiles, the facilities look very worn and full of mosquitoes. The Italian restaurant and the sushi restaurant are of low quality, you can find better food in the buffets.
I really like the confort of the room, the buffet restaurants and the beach its beautuful.

United KingdomAir conditioning was making loud noises. Wifi was terrible and not working for 80% of the time there. Staff was uninterested , and not kind or polite . 6/7 days there was a seaweed in the sea and it was just disgusting. I know its not hotels fault , it's just pretty disappointing when we booked this hotel because of good reviews saying the beach is pristine.
Proximity to the beach, train system, rooms were spacious clean and modern Drinks! Piña coladas were amazing Paellas were delicious Asian restaurants exceeded our expectations, food was stunning!

United StatesTake long time for the personalized meals on buffet : omelette line, pasta line, steak line, crepe line, run out of Nutella. Specialized restaurants are very difficult to book, you have to do it 24 hr in advance (so the first day more sure is going to be buffet dinner). From 3 nights we could only book 1, was good Teppanyaki(hibachi) Japanese style. Staff not as friendly as I remember from others staying DR (everyone is expecting to be tipped. Night entertainment was also basic,not big shows or amphitheater like other resorts. No disco or nightclub. Beverages are very basic, not great mixology. Poor beer selection. No premium liquor selection. Local brand Classico sucks. Pool is small and shallow (less 4 feet deep) Family side Good for families with small kids <10 y/o Adults exclusive area good for couples. Not good hotel for adolescents.
It’s the Caribbean and is hot, but Room is comfortable, excellent A/C, spacious, include minibar and very clean. Buffet food is very diverse. Nice coffee shop. Entertainment crew very nice and cheerful. 24 hr food and drink available.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful. The food and drinks are OK. Lots of restaurants I think 14. Rooms are clean and very comfortable. The hotel is quiet.

United StatesThe towels were clean but old they really needed to change them. The room had an awful humid smell, we couldn't sleep so we asked if they could help with that and they put a humidifier in both rooms... and that helped tremendously. The smell went away. It's very confusing how to make reservations on the app, and the wifi was horrible.
The food was good, not great, but good... It's not as horrible as the reviews say. The room was comfortable. The resort had lots of foliage .. peacocks and ducks walked freely. The beach was beautiful.

BrazilThe hotel is not clean. The floor is engord, a lot of insects in the restaurant, the employees are unpolite. It is my worst all inclusive experience. For exemple, sparking water they gave just for who give tips. The beer was hot and they never give you a bottle of soda ir water. The gave a glass full os ice and nothing of drink inside the glass. In the restaurant, if you give tips, the food arrive quick. Ir not, it is necessary order 5 times to receive the wrong plate.
The restaurant is dirty. There are Cockroaches and flies walking above the food. The employees see and do not do anything. My family had feed intoxication.
