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...).

United StatesEverything was perfect- not ONE bad thing to say!
Absolutely gorgeous bungalow, beach was pristine, water was crystal clear. Every single thing about our stay was above and beyond, from the room service for every meal if we wanted (the room service breakfast on our private ocean view patio was our favorite!!!), the outings and parties and activities all included, like kayaking, snorkeling, catamaran, the Mexican party with Mayan dancers and mariachi and authentic Mexican cuisine, the staff were all absolutely amazing and kind and went above and beyond, especially Alberto, Will, Danny, Leobardo, Josue, Marlene, Shirim, everyone was just so kind and friendly and the attention to detail in every aspect was incredible. The outdoor shower, HUGE jacuzzi, private pool on our deck, private tanning deck with sea stairs into the ocean, the bed was so comfortable, we just felt like royalty and never wanted to leave. We will be back again and again!!!

Everything! Literally everything!! The property is gorgeous, the staff was amazing and so welcoming and so attentive! I absolutely loved the stay and will be coming back!! This was the most royal 5 star treatment. I can’t say enough great things about this resort! Enrique and Fernando were the most amazing hosts/butlers! They need to be paid more because they deserve it 100%! They made our stay there so much better.

United StatesNothing really. We went on an all-day excursion to Isla Mujeres and we were very disappointed. We should have just stayed on the property all week!
Palifatos Overwater Bungalows exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we arrived, the 24/7 butler service made us feel like true VIPs. The food was absolutely 5-star, with every meal being a culinary delight. The location is perfection—crystal clear waters, vibrant marine life visible through the glass-bottom floors, and stunning views at every turn. The private cabana service with picnic lunches added a touch of luxury to our beach days, and the evening entertainment on the beach was a perfect way to unwind. The spa experience was nothing short of incredible—pure relaxation! Every detail of our stay was thoughtfully planned, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel special on our anniversary and throughout our trip. Palifatos is a true slice of paradise, and we can't wait to return!

United StatesThe lighting in the bathroom and dressing area was terrible. We had to use a flashlight to find cloths we put in the closet. The patio and deck furniture was uncomfortable and dated as well. Our plunge pool kept running low on water and made loud sucking/gurgling sounds and kept us awake or woke us up. Adding water didn't fix the problem. The "Butler" concept is poor. We had several different butlers and we didn't know the proper one to call or text. The only way to get room service was through the butler so we went without. We weren't notified of special events on the property or adjoining properties. A daily flyer or some method of notification aside from the butler would have helped.
The location was nice and the beaches beautiful and well manicured. The bungalow was of decent size but the furnishings dated. The food was good and the service acceptable.
