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.).

United StatesThe plumbing is horrible. Toilets are so loud and seem like they’re going to explode when you flush. No water pressure for the shower. The restaurant being closed was not fun.
The pool and the beach location. Normally I would say the diner like restaurant and the burgers at Tiki Hut, Flippers. Those are the main reason I booked at Dolphin. The renovations caused both of those options to not be available.

United StatesThe Dolphin Resort hotel is currently undergoing a lot of renovations and parking right now was a little more burdensome, but we still had good parking out front. There's a lot of painting and remodeling going on right now, (September/October 2024). The main restaurant was closed right now. Still really enjoyed our 4 night stay there nonetheless.
The view of the Gulf of Mexico from our 3rd floor, balcony guestroom was simply fabulous! Beautiful, amazing view of the beach, the ocean and was just spectacular! Loved the balcony and the room was very nice and comfortable.

United StatesWe never had our room cleaning during our 4 day stay which made the room pretty dirty being on the beach. Just had our towels replaced. Had a mini-kitchen with cabinets and drawers but no plates or silverware to use it.
The beach access and pool were great. The staff was friendly. The food was decent. Good value for money.

United StatesRoom was not that clean! A/C vent was fifthly, glass door looked like it had not been cleaned in forever. Room phone was broken, internet not hooked up so TV didn't come on. Had to walk down to Ray at the front desk to report it, By the way, Ray doesn't know how to smile and greet anyone. I experienced this twice with him. They did come up and fix the internet, so that was good. The stairwells stink!! It would be wise to deodorize them with something! Sucks that the pool bar doesn't open until 11:00AM. No one can get a bloody mary while on vacation with their breakfast!
Had a beachfront room, it was a beautiful view.

CanadaSecurity issues - few times I saw outsiders who came from public beaches spending time in the hotel swimming pool. They do not look dangerous, but they still do not live in this hotel.
It has a perfect location, a big beach with a complimentary cabana.

United StatesInstallations could be better maintained, the whole place would benefit from a new painting and carpets on the corridors - or at least a good, deep cleaning. The room was clean but corridors not that much, with old carpets, painting and some stains that left a not so good impression. But I think it kind of matches what we should expect based on price - which was actually very good.
Location is perfect, in front of a beautiful beach. Nice swimming pool though a little bit crowded when we went (well, not their fault I believe since it was a summer weekend). Free, convenient beach facilities (tent and chairs).
