Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

CanadaAttention to detail goes a long way. I stayed in the back without pool view for economy. The lights need to be replaced, dark entry. A green scrub pad and cleaning needed throughout. Coffee cups, water jug and mirrors were coated with dirt and stains upon arrival. Small things that can easily be improved. I recommend the spot, just hope the owners improve what is inexpensive to fix. Ps. Skip Macho Scooter rentals.
The pool area was excellent. Property is well maintained and has seating and drying racks outside. The airport transfer included, lovely. Towels and sheets, great. Location, just at the beginning of the right side of the airport. A few minutes walk to a couple of spots and 15 min walk to the core. Also, I used AB Car rental, they were awesome and priced right. VIPDiving next door...AMAZING company!

Bonaire St. Eustatius and SabaNo complaints. Its worth the price :)
Check-in process went smooth, nice staff. It was really quiet and peaceful. You get what you pay for, it is not absurdly expensive compared to other accommodations on the island. Rooms are very clean, no bad oder. However the furnitures are just a bit worn out but again for the price you pay this is not a big problem. The pool is also well maintained.

United StatesIt was a bit far from the town area. So with the hot weather it was harder to walk there than I anticipated. The mattress was very uncomfortable. There was a coffee maker, but no coffee.
Aqua Viva was a very fair value. The other available hotels in the capital were ridiculously expensive ($400 per night). I actually have a very high budget, but that was too much. The room was basic. It was very clean. The hotel is family run and the owners were very kind. The drivers who picked me up and took me to the airport were punctual and courteous. The pool area and garden were lovely. It was obvious that the owners really cared and were attentive to detail.

United StatesThe walk to downtown was a bit longer than I'd expected. I'd absolutely stay here again, but next time I'll probably rent a golf cart to get to and from restaurants, shops, and grocery stores.
Clean, convenient location to the airport, downtown, and numerous dive shops. Staff was extremely helpful and professional. Beautiful, well-maintained property.

United StatesSuite #2 has been smoked in (despite the no smoking signs). Room freshener doesn't address it. I would not stay in that suite again.
The common area, with a pool and chaise lounges, and beautiful palm trees, is lovely. The room is large and comfortable for 2 people and the kitchenette worked well for meals. The staff were friendly and helpful.

NetherlandsMy main gripe was that the room was dated, the location is just a little too far from city centre and no real amenities provided. For example, there is a very basic coffee pad machine in the room, but you have to go out of your way to and buy the coffee yourself. No breakfast offered.
Staff was nice and check-in was good. I liked the pool and one of the better priced places in Bonaire. They offer free transport to airport.
