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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

IrelandThe hotel don't make any effort to get people their room before 3pm. So it's a downside when travelling with kids . Plus one the reception staff didn't really know what he was doing during check in . Which is a shame cause all the other staff on reception where brilliant . The quality of the food in the restaurant isn't worth the price of upgrading too .
The room was very modern and clean . The hotel has lots facilities for children . The cleaner who looked after our room during our stay was fantastic and very friendly with our child .

IrelandThe que for the bar in the dome was very long with only two staff so turned us off going for the entertainment in the evenings.
The room was absolutely amazing, so comfortable, spacious and modern, kids loved the TV with YouTube and Netflix, great for when they wanted a break from the pool and sun. Reception staff, cleaners, first aid and snack bar staff were all very nice and very helpful. We will definitely be back, the property had everything you could need and so much more!

IrelandWiFi wasn't stable and dropped easily whilst streaming. TV cable channels dropped 3 days into trip and never came back again. No TV in bedroom, only main living area. Beds in couch in living area were not comfortable. Wouldn't be able for good sleep for more than a week. No kitchen soap or scrubbers provided for the cups and plates etc.
The pools were great. Nice size for each section. Opening time of section pools were not strict and there was enough pool loungers for everyone who wanted one. Main pool was lovely for a change of scenery and was slightly deeper. Baby pools were well placed and well shaded. Meals were fresh and plentiful. Times for meals were also well suited to young families. Taxis were readily ordered from reception and usually at the door within 5 minutes. Dining in the town had plenty of variety. Towels changed every day. Bed sheets only changed once a week. Air-conditioning in room was good. Crepes van was a nice surprise!

United KingdomLocation, it's a good 20 minute walk to restaurants if eating offsite. To get a drink or food from the pool bar you're looking at a a 10 to 20 minute queue - should be a separate queue for drinks.
Nice and clean. Good selection of pools. Friendly staff. Nice grounds.

IrelandRooms are little dated and need some updating bathroom and kitchen areas especially. Our sofa bed was broken at the side but didn’t effect use. The big pool with the slides into it was too deep for our kids at 1.5m deep throughout unfortunately.
The pools and facilities are great for families and kids. Selection of pools and splash park area is great.

IrelandI had other family members staying in the premier accommodation which was well below the Deluxe standard. Ants were a bit of a problem but on the plus side there were no cockroaches. The on site supermarket was adequate for basics but that's all.
The pool facilities were excellent and the overall ambiance of the complex was peaceful and safe.

United KingdomThe hotel grounds are very, very large which makes it difficult when the main road and reception/half of the rooms are so far apart - having some extra gates closer to where people walk from the beach/shops would’ve been helpful. Walking to the nearest bus stop takes 15-20 minutes - while we didn’t mind all the walking, it can become strenuous overtime in the heat. Although there is a complimentary bus service to the beach 4 times a day, the schedule was awkward. The kitchen lacked dish washing supplies like soap and sponge.
The hotel grounds were really well kept - all the plants were not only gorgeous but looked after with care. The room we had was basic, but perfect for a couple days with limited cooking facilities. The 16 swimming pools were a nice surprise and always clean with plenty of chairs to pick from. Surprisingly, we were happier with a garden view over a pool view as it was substantially quieter. The staff were attentive and helped us with any requests or questions - we really appreciated their patience after all our trips to reception.

IrelandThe only suggestion I can make would be to have some kind of shade on the terrace - it can get quite hot and there is no escape from the sun. Even a table with a parasol would be nice, Otherwise no complaints :)
The complex is beautifully laid out, with lots of green space and plenty of meandering pathways to stroll along. I enjoyed ambling around and visiting the Cactus Garden, tucked away in a quiet corner of the complex. The pool areas are very pleasant and were not too crowded when we visited (Easter 2024). The pool bar is a lovely place to sit and enjoy a drink or snack. The staff are great, friendly and efficient. The complex is spotlessly clean, with staff constantly tidying up. And speaking of staff, every single person we met was friendly and greeted us. They made us feel truly welcome. The accommodation (1 bed pool view apartment) was great. The apartment was what you expect from a 1 bed holiday apartment and every one of our party of 3 was comfortable for the 10 days we stayed, We were missing a toaster and reception had brand new one delivered in minutes, The location of the complex is roughly a 10 minute easy walk to the town of Playa Blanca - there is a back gate into the complex and this is the quickest way to get to town (key available for €10 deposit at reception). Playa Blanca is a nice laid back town with mostly restaurants, along the front, and shops behind. There is also a port where you can get the ferry to nearly Fuerteventura (a lovely day trip, recommended). The staff everywhere are very nice and accommodating, extending that feeling of welcome. Busses are readily available should you wish to visit other towns on the island- and an this point I'd like to give a shout out to the cafe inside the bus station who serve the best coffee (Americano) in town (and the cheapest!). I took a 1/2 day South Island bus tour to visit the Timanfaya National Park (Volcano and Camel Ride) and I'd really recommend taking a tour rather than going in your own car- the queue for private cars to get it was horrifying!! The tour busses get to skip this queue :)
