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 StatesThere could have been more lounge chairs available on the lawn. We were able to find a couple regular chairs but they were not comfortable.
The staff were very friendly, both at reception and in the restaurant/bar area. The views of the ocean and proximity to the beach was great. The dishes we ordered for dinner were really quite good, above our expectations.

We've been there a handful of times. It's small. The beach is for the most part empty. The food is very good and reasonably priced as are the drinks. It is quaint & lovely. It's been there for 20 yrs & the owner lives onsite. We'll be going again next year hopefully.

United StatesIt's not really a "resort" the way someone from North America might view a resort. But if you've done your research and looked at the photos and the reviews, you'll have appropriate expectations. It's tucked away, and a little difficult to find (we had a local friend who picked us up and dropped us off, so it was fine, because she knew the area. The road is full of pot holes, so just take your time driving and you'll be fine!
This place was everything we needed in late August! Quiet, just a few people staying. Walk to the beach from your breakfast coffee and you could see the water from almost every room. The pool (I didn't use it) was perfect for lap swimming and very, very clean. No obnoxious smell of chlorine, so not sure how they cleaned it, but somebody obviously did, we could see him maintaining it every day, and the water was always immaculate. The restaurant is open air, so got a little sticky and we took a couple showers every day despite the cooling breezes available all day and night. There's a shower to rinse off the sand or sea water before getting in the pool. Our room was very spacious, with a safe and a big TV (we didn't watch it). Lots of hot water and great water pressure. Very, very CLEAN. Powerful in-room airconditioning. Hammocks right outside our door. Food at the restaurant was excellent, reasonably priced, cocktails were also very good. The staff, although somewhat limited English, bent over backwards to serve. They were very professional, friendly, and the food was well presented and generous. We would definitely stay here next time we're visiting our friend in Las Lajas.

PanamaThe glass doors/windows could be cleaner, when it comes to enjoying the view from the room. Lots of fingerprints and dirt. The hotel has a more simple setup compared to some other hotels in the area. Could do with some more lighting in the beachfront area to enjoy the beach at night for example. Perhaps some small tables to put drinks/food on too. Menu surprisingly has very lackluster fish/seafood options. No whole fish for one. Unfortunately very basic TVs. Not smart, so they don't have Netflix or any streaming services. However the cable worked fine for our stay, and you can switch between languages on some channels if you play around with the settings a bit. The hammocks on the balcony are a nice touch, but it's a bit of a shame you can't really see the beach too well when laying on them, as the big perimeter of the balcony obscures the view. Not the hotel's fault, but the lady in the room next to us was very noisy when she was outside for a good few hours and took away from the enjoyment of the sounds of the ocean. The king suite has a shared balcony, so this is unpredictable who you will share that space with.
Great views, delicious food and drinks. Staff were very friendly and helpful when making any requests. Some lovely little dogs around that the owner understandably chased away, but for us added to the positivity of the experience. Well maintained surrounding area and part of the beach. Clean and neat presentation. Extremely comfortable bed, some of the best sleep I've had in a while. Bathroom was very well stocked with different shampoos, conditioner and facial care products. A nice change from the small little packaged products you can find provided in many hotels.
