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.).

ColombiaThere are some activities in the night that could finish earlier and not disturb the guest who are near the pool. Beer didn’t tate really like bear, I think there was some water in there
Beach and facilities in general are good. The menu of the restaurant by the beach could have more options.

United StatesThe beach wad dirty. Couldn't use it. The food can use improvement and variety. There's a restaurant with NO kitchen. It's also advertised as Dominican cuisine but the food served is far from it. That shootings definitely be closed down

CanadaWe were not impressed by the staff, in particular the entertainment staff, they were not friendly or polite with us. The entertainment in the evening was also a little disorganized and not as good as other resorts where we've stayed.
What we liked most was the little cafe. Also, the food at the a la carte restaurants was really good! The path down to the beach was really nice, although it was my first time staying at a resort that wasn't right on the beach.

United KingdomWifi was poor. Entertainment crew tried hard but options limited. Music very dated. Breakfast not great.
Breakfast was the poorest meal of the day as far as hot food goes. Lunch & dinner improved considerably. The Mexican restaurant was good as well. Wifi throughout the hotel inside & out was poor. Kept dropping all the time. Nice facilities though although they were closing the day we left & moving to another location. Considering some staff were losing their jobs, they stayed professional & tried to keep us happy. Location was good, nice beach. We asked for a quiet room & got a noisy one to begin with close to the kitchen & nightclub so asked to move. They moved us to a much better room, no complaints there with the service.

PolandCheck in was very stressful.The gentleman at the receptin,despite my request for a quiet room,gave me a room by the kitchen,with no view what so ever and at my request for a change,he stated that they were all taken.Only after the intervention of the supervisor,I got a new room in half an hour.It was not a dream room with a view,but at least quiet one.It should be added that I bough a larger room to ensure myself comfort ,unfortunately it was not worth paying extra.What a pity....It was very stressful for me and not professional. The quality of drinks in the bars was bad. Animations at a very weak level. I bought a Puerto Plata sightseeing tour at the hotel. It was supposed to be from 9am-1pm.It turned out that it was a taxi driver and not a guide and after 2 hours he said we could go back to the hotel because we had seen everything...Waste of money.
Breakfast was good,lots of dishes,variety of fruits. Possibility to use various restaurants without reservation for dinner. Nice staff in restaurants. There was a nice short walk from the hotel to the beach

United StatesThe restaurants wouldn't allow us to sit all together, but that could've been due to covid.
We went for a bachelorette party (group of 8 girls) and had a fantastic time. The breakfast was our favorite part along with the funny and super friendly staff. Definitely recommend for a mini girls getaway.
