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.).

United StatesI didn't like that we had to leave so soon!
Steps from the beach and several restaurants, but far from the rest of town. It wasn't a problem for us, but it might be for some although there are plenty of guaguas that go by. As the name implies, lots of kite surfers from different countries.

The room was spacious and clean. There is a Yale safe which is good. The Air conditioning was good. The facility is right on the beach. Kenny was very hospitable.

CroatiaNo grocery stores close by except a small one opposite the street, no offer of food or drinks at the hotel, but the Kite Surf Club beside had wide offer of food, drinks and desserts. The beach is really crowded with kite surfers, and waves and currents are strong, so it is not the best place to swim.
Hotel is located on the beach just beside a kite surf club. Hotel is good and clean but need some adaptation. We stayed in Triple Room with Balcony, kitchenette and balcony and one wardrobe. Room was spacious, the cooking area was basically equipped for 3 persons, fridge was new and clean. Bathroom with shower, towels and one bottle of shampoo and one soap. Balcony not possible to lock, safe available. No cleaning during our 4 nights stay. Smart TV, lousy WiFi in our room. Pool area also need adaptation, we did not try the pool. There was also a shower and a public sitting area under the roof beside the pool, and another one looking at the beach with some basic tables and chairs. Staff was helpful. Payment in cash or Paypal. The Kite Surf Club beside the hotel was very nice.

CanadaMy patio door didn't seem to lock properly, as a solo traveler this was slightly unnerving, I didn't inquire with the staff about it because I didn't want to draw attention to the fact that my room was not fully secured while I stayed there.
The location was amazing, even though I had no intention of kite surfing it was very cool to watch other people do it. A walk to town (Cabarete) along the beach was about 30 minutes, and when you're on vacation that's a relaxing part of the experience. The staff were friendly and helpful with suggestions for restaurants and stores. Clean room, with a view from my balcony of the waves crashing. The property was secured with a locked gate(at night) on the street side and a staff member keeping an eye on the beach entrance. Seriously a great location.

CanadaNot very close to supermarkets or the main strip in cabarete but this isn't a negative really its personal preference! It is just nice to have the option to be very close to a lot of things.
Manager Kenny was amazing. He was so helpful and knowledgeable. If you're into kite surfing this is definitely the spot for you! Also, I like how the TV's are smart TV's and if you're feeling tired from the sun and want to login to your Netflix account you can! More expensive places have terrible TV's with local stations on them. Also have a microwave and hot plate if you want to make some food in your room, which is especially handy if you're hungry outside of regular restaurant hours.

United StatesThe hotel was fairly empty when I went so it felt a bit like a ghost town. Its location at the hotel beach, though great for kiting, wasn’t convenient for going out to dinner in town. The internet almost never worked for me.
The room was very clean and the staff extremely kind. The hotel was also right next door to the kite club, which has lockers to leave your kite gear and a good restaurant.

United StatesAll the staff was great, but the manager in particular was fantastic. I forgot his name, but he is Haitian Dominican. He was very attentive, gave great suggestions about what to do and how to get around, and helped me to get a last minute room at the hotel when they had a cancelation. I don't know how one guy is able to manage the whole hotel, but he did. And he did a great job. He is interested in computer science. Best of luck to you as you study!

United StatesRust on the balcony railings needs fixing & the beds need better pillows.
Right on Kite Beach! I loved sitting on the sand watching the kite surfers. They kite surf during windy days from morning until evening. Cabarete center is a 5 min drive where all the gift shops & beachfront restaurants are. A local bus can drop you off there (50 pesos a person each way). There's a small store across the street that sell things like water, milk, bananas, coconut, bread, cake, chips, soap etc... There's also a restaurant right across the street that serves Dominican food (250 pesos a plate.) Kite club is next door & Cabarete flying trapeze circus right next to it. You can see the aerial acrobats practice from the ocean view balcony rooms. The hotel staff was friendly & helpful especially the front desk representative, Kenny. He was amazing!
