Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

MexicoThe food was a hit or miss. And the draft beer was really bad. Also, the towels you had to borrow for the pool were kind of weird. Usually these type of resorts have a bunch of towels at the pool area where you can grab them and leave the dirty ones. Didn’t like the whole dynamic you had to go through with the towel situation
The pool area was great! Staff were very polite and happy to help. The beach privacy was great and the area was very comfortable.

CanadaWifi was not reliable in the rooms. Starlink is the way to go.towel hangers should be in the bathrooms, as I didn't need fresh towels everyday.a door from the pool to the washrooms would be good, so you don't need to walk up by the restaurant in your bathing suit. How about a bar set up near reception (business area), so we can enjoy a cocktail in the evening instead of going all the way down to the ocean bar.
The pool was lovely, staff was wonderful, rooms were cleaned well each day, stunning views of the ocean, buffet breakfast was usually very good.

CanadaIncreased shuttle service is recommended to transport guests to and from the restaurant/pool/beach areas to hotel. We found the breakfast to be very satisfactory with the exception of the amount of bees the food was attracting. Ate at the evening buffet once, food was great but overpriced.
Beautiful property with amazing ocean views. Rooms are large, layout is great and beds are very comfortable. Wonderful and very friendly service especially from Jazz at the front desk and Joel in the restaurant.

MexicoThe staff weren't very nice. I traveled with my mom, who has difficulty walking, and the path to the beach, pool and dining area was very steep. The receptionist never told us there was a shuttle that could take us down. There were two other families with similar issues, two of them used wheelchairs and they weren't told about the shuttle. Another time, we requested the shuttle and were told it had gone out to get gas and they made us wait 30 minutes but I could see the shuttle from the reception area. Also, the WiFi never worked, we took a Chromecast to connect to the tv and could never set it up because the WiFi kept disconnecting.
The private beach is beautiful and the rooms are very comfortable. The beds were really soft.

CanadaNEGATIVES: Ok, aside from them going all inclusive, we were on a free breakfast plan, so we found the meals after this frustrating. Menus were odd, overpriced, small selection, inconsistent. Because the hotel is a taxi drive away from town, it sometimes felt they knew they got you, so they would overcharge these meals. Their NYE party buffet is 2280 pesos! That is a bit of a grab. We could easily go to town and pay 1/3 that. We also had undercooked fish, 1 of our 2 pizzas was cold and undercooked, and we had a plain salad for 210 pesos! This is all moot though if you get the all-inclusive plan now…which would make the experience better. The margaritas we had also were too sweet, could be better. Another issue for us was the room in general. This entire resort has white lights. It needs more warm/soft lighting, especially in the room!! It was harsh to be around, and I personally feel international travellers would much prefer this. The room had a very sterile feel to it. Needs some art or something to make it feel cozier. Wifi…VERY spotty. In the room it never worked, but on the balcony, it did. All in all, we enjoyed our stay. We feel this hotel has potential with some small changes or refinements.
Let me say before getting into the pros and cons, this hotel seems to be going through a transition over to all inclusive, which I think will solve many of the issues mentioned. PROS: The staff! Wow, all staff were fantastic! From the waiters, to the cleaners, to the front desk, to even the gardeners, all looked invested in the property. It truly showed everyone here wanted you to have the best experience possible. The view here also exceeded our expectations. We had a partial ocean view room, and it was more than good enough…amazing sunrises every morning. The proximity to great, underrated beaches was also another positive. The hotel beach in my opinion is underrated. Some reviews here say it’s rocky and not swimmable. I disagree. It’s an amazing beach, quiet, great sand, and even decent snorkelling. Loved how it always felt secluded…I wouldn’t change a think….maybe more chairs with sun covers Another favourite was Tajon Beach, only a 15 min walk away. Some other small positives that didn’t go unnoticed…great shower pressure, good quality towels, comfortable bed (though oddly short if you are even a little tall), everything here is quite clean (you see staff always cleaning throughout the day), pool was great, lots of great hang out areas. Breakfast buffet every morning was also good! Last, I appreciate the efforts made to always improve. You can see they are making upgrades (pool access from hotel), or tweaking things to appease the guests reviews…thank you!

CanadaThe beach itself is rocky and good for snorkeling but need caution when swimming. The beach set up is very small barely has enough chairs for 8 people. However, there is one more beach access that was not clean, plastic and trash all around. Management requires to send staff on a regular basis to clean both the beach side and garbage bins. One more very important and annoying issue during breakfast, especially for those who are allergic to bee stings. Bees are all around during breakfast on the plates in your juice drinks, anything that has sugar. Very poor bee management and the property needs to do a better job controlling the bee population, or set up bee feeders.
The property is in a private setting with its own private beach access & 8 min by taxi to town & less than 30 min to the airport. It is a lovely place on a hilly terrain which requires the hotel shuttle to access the one restaurant, Corales, and the beach. It is less than 5 min walk from the room to the restaurant or beach. The king bedroom was very comfortable and large. The staff is great, the property is clean, safe, and the breakfast is plenty. Depending on the vacancy and season there is sometimes a breakfast buffet. We enjoyed our stay on this trip and chose to return for the last two nights before flying back out. A good place to enjoy for few days.
