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...).

United KingdomOnly slight thing I could say was maybe a couple of small bottles of water in the fridge. But for the price that would be me very picky
Good location, straight across from the Marriott which you can walk through to get to the beach path. Clean tidy and has everything you need if eating in or eating out. Would definitely stay again and look for availability on my next trip to Aruba

This was the most fantastic find in Aruba. We stayed from the 1/5 - 12/5/2024. We loved it from the moment we entered and were sad to leave. Peter,Omira, Didi and Vera were very welcoming and made you feel very much at home. We had the one bedroom apartment and it was very big,clean and comfortable. We slept well every night. The air con is super and really works. Everything is provided. Vera the housekeeper is amazing. One of the outstanding aspects of this property is the outside area. It has plenty of shade and believe me you needed it and the really cool beach area! The pool was good and we loved the huge pink flamingo ! Its location was excellent with in easy reach to the beach and the bus stops. We used to walk to the supermarkets in the morning not far at all. At night it was quiet. Again we were so pleased with our choice and its amazing price point. Our first visit to Aruba and would come back to Sandcastles without a doubt. Thank you so much for letting us be your guests!

United KingdomNothing to dislike!!
So close to the action, yet so wonderfully quiet! Better value than any of the high rise hotels where the staff are faceless, the service soulless and the pool shared with literally everyone. I met a couple on a tour who were complaining about their fancy hotel and after I told them about mine, they said they’d book it next time!! Don’t question the decision, book it.

United States of AmericaRiri and the team were super nice. The apartment was clean, cute, stocked with coffee, a cooler (which was great to take to the beach), beach towels, shampoo and conditioner. We were a quick walk away from the big resorts- amazing value for what we paid. What I really loved was having the private patio with a pool and number of chairs so we could relax after our day out. 10/10 would recommend.

BelgiumThis was the 4th time we've stayed here. We wouldn't stay anywhere else on the island 😊 This time we had the bigger apartment, which had a little more comfort than the poolhouse (where we stayed the previous times). As always, everything was perfect, Peter and Omira were super accommodating, and we had a great time. Highly recommended!

CanadaRoom was small with kitchen in it.
The place was a nice small room with kitchen with the beautiful pool and a nice area to sit outside. This property has everything and very close to all the big hotels. The owner was nice and he greeted us and was kind to give us our room earlier than the check in time. Didn't use the kitchen but they had a good microwave, fridge and a small gas stove. Not sure of the pots and pans as didn't look at them. Overall good value for money.
