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...).

South KoreaThe only problem was the minibar that was filled with some drinks and food, but there was no price or notes about it anywhere in the room. It could make you think you could get at least the water, but after contacting the reception I found out any of them should be paid and the prices were absolutely high (coke can $4, 600ml water bottle for $3 etc).
Incredible place in a very good spot at the beach. Other options we considered were far from the “center” what would make it more tiring to move around to restaurants and shops. We were concerned it would be noisy and crowded but for our surprise it was very calm and relaxing. Everything was great, from the rooms (ac, showers, bed, decoration etc) to the swimming pool and chairs outside. We would definitely go back there in our next trip to Venao.

United States of AmericaVery, very remote. 5 hour drive from the airport. Not the property’s fault. Lol
The property itself was immaculate and obviously well maintained. The beach had a lot of trash though we found that to be the case across Panamá.

IsraelIn the beginning I got a room in a place with no Wi-Fi signal and the safe didn't work. When the guy came to fix the safe, he told it is none the Wi-Fi is not working in this room - so why did you put me in the room for the first place if you know there is no Wi-Fi?? But fortunately they had another available room with Wi-Fi signal. The restaurant is not so tasty... and I would expect discount for who is staying in the hotel A very loud groups of people that not staying in the hotel used to come inside in the middle of the day. They played music and really interrupted the chill wibes
Great stuff - really helpful with everything The pool and the view is stunning

Panamafor the amount I paid I would expect my room to be cleaned every day without asking me every time. and i knew that breakfast was not included, but.. the hotel has its own restaurant. when the customer pays 200+ per room, I believe the hotel can make the breakfast for 10$ complimentary:)
beautiful view, huge balcony, great location!

The staff was really nice, friendly and helpful. The room was small but convenient, ours had no view but we were still close to the beach. The swimming pool is fantastic...you have the best view over the beach/ocean, surrounded by palm trees...it's paradise.

KosovoThe night lounge was empty so had to take a short stroll to wao venao to get some vibrancy...but definitely not a deal breaker, we'll return here again!
Great spot right on the beach. Traveled with a family of 4 of us. Staff was very friendly and it's a 5 minute walk down the beach to the Wao Venao with all the cool restaurants bars etc...so proximity is perfect! We really wanted to stay an extra day because it was so relaxing!
