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.).

CanadaIt’s a huge property, most rooms are across the street from lobby / beachfront. Very secured and organized but don’t get it wrong it’s a 200+ room facility…
The area by the beachfront is best in town with pool, lot of seating options. Surf lessons were very cool!

United StatesThe oceanfront rooms are really outdated. The bathroom is tiny, really too small for a couple to share. The rooms are also noisy with very poor sound insulation.
The resort is beautiful, the included breakfast was excellent, the views are stunning and the location is perfect.

United StatesWay over priced, the quality of the room was a $250 a night place, not a $500 per night stay. Resort needs to be updated seriously. Ocean view room was a partial ocean view. Owners should consider providing a couple of bottles of cold water per day for the room. Bathrooms and bedrooms are straight out of the ‘70’s. Small and outdated.
The location is fantastic. Breakfast was good. Free parking.

United KingdomThis was a very nice resort hotel in tamarindo. It’s great for recovering after all the hiking and sightseeing in Costa Rica. The grounds are beautiful and there are plenty of monkeys and animals in the trees. The 3 pool areas are great and getting a sunbed is not a problem. You can get an Uber to the airport which is 10 minutes away.

NetherlandsThe rooms are not isolated very well, but luckily the road becomes very quiet after 10 PM. If you are not a surfer and are coming to enjoy the beach, then Tamarindo is the wrong location. The sea is completely black. You have to drive to Playa Conchal for a clear sea with white sand beaches.
Breakfast very good. Beautiful view from the whole hotel. Swimming pool clean. Room very comfortable. Very clean hotel. Top service. This is probably the best hotel you can find in Tamarindo.
