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...).

United StatesWe were frustrated with the booking process. We asked for two connecting rooms via booking.com and after we booked, we were told the rooms would not be connecting. That was not ok for us as we have two children under 5. We were not allowed to cancel the reservation - even though there is clearly a glitch in the way they are advertising room options on booking.com. Fortunately, we were able to come to a compromise but this was a really frustrating process and would cause me to pause on booking here again.
Staff was extremely helpful. Specifically Jonathan. He helped us navigate a misunderstanding with our booking and made sure we didn't need to wait a long time for it to be resolved. Having two small children, we appreciated his attention to our needs. He was also helpful with recommendations for activities.

IsraelNo kettle coffee tea etc. in the room or at the lobby. Shower hardly works - lack of water pressure. Breakfast mostly sweet.
The people are amazing. We could use one of two nights due to health problems. They did not refund us, since it was last moment. But they gave us their best room (Vila medeterain) and let us check out late. Nice people. The ocean view is unforgettable. Comfortable huge bed. The second bed is not if the same quality

A very nice variety of breakfast options. The friendly staff took orders for omelettes. Each table was beautifully set and many tables looked over the lovely beach. What a great way to begin the day. I loved the convenience of my first floor room and the clothes line to dry everything after a day of fun. I really appreciate having a pitcher of filtered water in my room as I'm a huge water drinker. The towels and linens were of high quality and I enjoyed having use of a complimentary robe. The lodging was perfectly situated and met all of my needs; easy walk everywhere. The happy hour drink and tapas were a perfect way to relax upon conclusion of an active day in the sun. The staff were warm and welcoming as well with an excellent recommendation for daily excursions too.

United StatesI did extensive research on hotels, and Casa de Marita is by far one of the best in the town. I will say, I think a big difference is beachfront vs inland rooms. When I looked at the reviews, those who had beachfront LOVED their experience, and those who got inland rooms without a view thought the rooms were moderately overpriced for what you get. My suggestion: get the beachfront view. The cost-benefit is worth it for those rooms.
It's hard not to like Casa de Marita. It's right on the beach on the far side of the small town - so it's quiet on the property but easy to walk to everything. It's one of the closest hotels to the ferry (10-min walk). The staff was extremely attentive. Our room was clean (and spacious). Breakfast in the morning was included, and pretty extensive. We had dinner there two nights - both meals we really enjoyed. They helped connect us with a local tour guide agency, so we felt confident trusting the company to book/pay for tours in advance. Bonus: we paid for the jr suite, but were upgraded to the master suite because the hotel was only half booked.

PortugalThe evaluation and price must be mostly based on the other rooms as previously commented. Our room was pretty basic and not worth the price at all, breakfast was average (eggs not available not due to their fault), some of the staff wasn't so nice. It does have the good points stated, making it acceptable but not more than that. Book one of the other rooms if you are interested in this hotel.
Good location, hot water, wifi in the room, ar conditioning, clean.
