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.).

CanadaThere was nothing we didn’t like, however for others it is a bit of a golf cart away from the city of San Pedro but it is closer to Secret Beach
The property is beautiful and well laid out. All amenities are close together but not cramped. The restaurant is one of the best in the area, the staff and management were wonderful. Accommodations are very comfortable with amazing views. The toiletries hand crafter and beautiful quality.

Staffs here treat you like a family, we were sad leaving at the end of our stays. The property is very clean, secluded, you feel like on a private island. Very quiet and private, it gave the true serenity we were seeking. Cabanas are roomy, ours had two queen beds with rooms to move around. We truly enjoyed the facility, the food was the best on the island.

United StatesThe only thing that we didn’t like were how bad the mosquitoes were. We didn’t realize they had a thing to light to repel mosquitos that they kept at the front desk that we could have used in our rooms but no one told us about them! Other than that the stay was amazing.
The food here was amazing, it’s a very pretty resort with great staff and we loved the pool and being able to do excursions from the dock at the resort.

United StatesWe were bummed that we couldn't use the beach due to the seaweed, but that was an issue all along the east side of the island-- not resort-specific.
The resort was very picturesque, well-maintained, and comfortable. The staff was friendly and responsive. We had breakfast there daily and dinner one evening, which were tasty. We rented a golf cart, which we used to get around the island. I recommend that since the resort is about 30 minutes outside of town.

The Portifino restaurant had excellent breakfast, lunch and dinner. They had fresh fruit and freshly caught seafood. The service was excellent and the prices were fair. They had direct access to the beach. The pool was beautiful. The rooms were generous in size. Daily housekeeping. The property was well maintained. It was quite but very nice. I would definitely recommend this property.

United StatesThe room cleaning staff was weak. Toothpaste was left on the facet several days, we had to ask for clean glasses. One day a empty bottle was still on the shower floor when we came back. It would have been nice to have the bottled water replaced in the frig. The food was certainly good but the menu was limited.
The wait staff was wonderful, all levels! From the person who seats you to the server. The view was terrific as was the pool. Both the bed and pillows were dreamy, wish I could have taken them home! Coffee and breakfast was my favorite!

United StatesOur unit (sunflower) had underperforming AC, so the room never got below 25C - not a big deal but made sleeping a bit tough. Little to no hot water in the shower. Drinks are pricey.
Best service I have ever experienced. The staff really makes you feel at home, always going the extra mile (Mark in particular was exceptional). Overall such a beautiful, relaxing place to spend some time. big plus having a dive/tour center on site - the trips we took to Mexico Rocks and Hol Chan/Sharkray Alley were awesome! Food was great and drinks from the bar were excellent and strong. Bar is a fun place to hang out. The upstairs suites (like Sunflower) are huge, with expansive outdoor patios great for hanging out.

United StatesThe bed was not as comfortable as the reviews had made it seem. The duvet itself was nice but the mattress wasn't the most comfortable. The sheets were are scratchy and not of the highest quality. I would have also preferred to be told ahead of time that there was going to be a wedding on the property the last night of my stay. I did not know that until I was on site and the rehearsal occurred. The wedding party was perfectly kind and quiet, but I was a little upset that the hotel did not inform me that there would be a wedding on site. I couldn't access the beach in the area that I liked to lay the two final evenings I was there because of the rehearsal and wedding.
Kindest staff I've ever experienced. The property was gorgeous and right on the water. The food was incredible. The rooms were large and quiet. I also had access to snorkeling, fishing, and other activities at the dive shop right on the property. As a solo female traveler, it was important that I felt safe at all times, and the staff at Portofino could not have done a better job taking care of me! They even booked my flight from Belize City to San Pedro and back again after my trip. My whole point of the trip was to relax and not have to think about anything for a week between jobs, and it is exactly what I needed!
