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 StatesWe were told to grab a towel in the morning and then go to the beach to get a palapa. I assumed the towels would be ready by 7am when I tried to go over to get a Palapa but they were not ready so I waited - believing that I didn't need to be in a hurry to get a Palapa since I thought they were held for MVC Eagle Beach hotel guests. Ultimately, the towels weren't ready until 8:30 or so and by that time all the palapa's were gone. It did not seem like the palapas were being held for hotel guests. It would have been really nice to get better information from the registration desk on when towels would be available and how to ensure getting a palapa. Kind of minor I guess since there is plenty of shade all around but still it was a minor inconvenience to a really nice stay.
It was small, lovely, comfortable and not "resorty"... I just appreciated not having so many people everywhere. The place was quiet and peaceful. The breakfast was different than what I expected (traditional american breakfast) but very nice and very fresh!

United StatesThe room is a bit small. The pool is also tiny. I feel like a bigger pool instead of a tennis court would be a great upgrade. There is also no ice machine so you have to go ask for ice when you need it. The bed is extremely hard, which some people love, but i do not. Nothing bad that made me not want to return tho
Amazing location right on Eagle Beach. Free chairs and beach towels are included, and if you get out early enough, you can also get a palapa. The breakfast, tho small, is also Included. It is pretty much the same each day with tiny variations. Everyone on the staff is super friendly and fun. They were always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our stay was comfortable. The room as well as the rest of the grounds were kept spotless. Daily maid service, which is hard to come by these days. The value seems to be unmatched on the island. We are already considering a return trip this year because we enjoyed it so much

Our stay was wonderful. The hotel staff was super friendly and accommodating. The hotel was only a few steps from the beach, you can literally see the ocean from your room if your on the top level. MVC was also super quiet and so quaint. The breakfast was perfect! I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who goes to Aruba!

United StatesThere wasn't an iron in the room. Instead, there was a shared laundry room for all the guests with a single iron available to use. It got the job done, but it was a bit inconvenient to have to go there whenever I needed to iron something. The staff told me that having an iron in the room would be a fire hazard. The included breakfast is not a buffet/self-service. You sit down and are served your coffee/tea and an assorted tray of breakfast items. It was an adequate amount for breakfast, but don't expect any bacon. :)
The location was perfect - right across from Eagle Beach. The rooms were super clean and all the staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. There are some very nice places nearby for dinner and drinks. There is a big supermarket not too far from the hotel and you can easily take the bus or a taxi to the Palm Beach area or into town. A special shout out to the beach umbrella guy (I don't remember his name), who always went out of his way to find an umbrella and chairs for us, even when we got the later in the day. Thank you!

United StatesThere could be more shelves or drawers in the room, but otherwise everything was great.
Eagle Beach, which is beautiful, is right across a typically quiet street that is easy and safe to cross. The location is great, as it is along a quiet stretch that extends south to the city and north to the high-rise hotel district. There are a variety of restaurants within a short walk of the property. The room we had is on the small side, but fine for two people to share. The pool is tiny, but with the ocean beach so close, it did not matter. Breakfast was included and was enjoyable and a good start to the day. The staff are very helpful and friendly.
