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.).

GeorgiaThe only thing I did not like was the limitation to use paddle boards and kayaking. Most people go to this place for sports activities. The paddling is only available from 9 AM, which is already late and hot, would be great if people had access to paddles earlier until the sun is too strong. Even the paddles are available from 9 AM, the hotel employees brought them from 10 AM and there is no sufficient equipment, they have only 4 paddles. The other problem was the taxi arrangement, on arrival we paid different amount, on departure, we were told to pay half of the amount, while taxi did not even come on time and we had flight to take in the airport. Would be great to have timely organized transfers to and from airport and consistency in price.
I loved the space; it was amazing. I loved the concept, I loved the food, the lake was amazing, the rooms are comfortable, beautiful, and in the middle of a jungle. The rainforest was amazing, loved the green, and being in the middle of the forest.

United KingdomI would say the only thing is they didn’t have enough para soles for everyone to use one on the deck when it got hot!
So peaceful and tranquil. Amazing to have free activities such as yoga and Pilates and paddle boarding . The massage was amazing too! Best full body massage I’ve ever had. We also had an amazing Mexican flavours 4 course meal, for Independence Day and a live band which was fabulous.

ItalyAbove our expectations. We reached Our Habitas by car from Tulum through a highway which was well maintained. The staff is very welcoming and friendly, overall the place is naturally magical: the hotel faces the laguna which is an incredible natural place with fresh and crystal clear water. The hotel makes available to guests both paddle boards and kayaks to take during the entire day, among other activities e.g., boat tour, yoga and dance classes. The rooms really contribute to the experience, being them A-framed tented rooms with outside showers. Food is amazing as well, breakfast is included with many savory and sweet options. Highly recommend

AustraliaEverything was just gorgeous - from the staff, the rooms, to the food. We lounged by the water, swam, had cocktails and read books. There was free yoga classes and other awesome stuff on site as well. Bring bug spray - obs you can't be this close to fresh water with beautiful lush greenery and not expect them.

United StatesOur arrival could have been greeted nicer. Gaby was kind but the woman sitting next to her didn’t even bother to look at us or welcome us. No welcome drink was offered. The WiFi sometimes didn’t work. One night when we came home the gulf cart battery had died and it was suggested that we drive our car towards the chalet with no direction and it was quite dark. It’s too long to walk from the entrance to the chalet. For the price that you pay you would expect 5 star hospitality. The front desk definitely needs better training on how to welcome guests and the gulf cart should never die.
The Lagoon! The colors! The chalet was really amazing! Extremely comfortable and earthy!

MexicoWe are Mexicans, the food is made for United States people. Even when we asked for spicy sauces they were mild. The region has amazing food, none of it is on the menu because it is to elaborate for the Americans that visit
The place is beautiful, the rooms are equipped with everything you need to have a nice time. The rooms have an outside shower that is amazing. We enjoyed the yoga classes. The staff was always glad to help and made our stay special

United KingdomThis hotel is the dream. Book it, disconnect, enjoy life. The location itself is breathtaking and is away from the crowds, you feel that the lagoon is only for you. It is warm fresh water and so transparent. The hotel is extremely quiet, you are surrounded by birds. The restaurant and bar serve delicious, fresh and local food / drinks. The room are very comfortable and the outside shower is amazing and has good pressure! The staff is lovely and caring. Book a massage, I had the best massage of my life there. We did the sunrise paddle which was worth waking up early to see animals and enjoy the los rapidos without anyone else. We stayed 3 nights and we are so glad we did, it was an incredible place to stay at and we are now hoping to visit other hotels from our habitas.

MexicoThe amount of shade in the common areas is not enough for all the hotel guests and the dining areas in the deck are also not enough. Also there are not many options of food… with a three day stay it starts getting repetitive.
The location it has is perfect and the rooms are with a good construction that feels safe and natural.
