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.).

IsraelIt seems that the hotel is still in running period. we had a very bad experience during dinner, we had to wait for the first container do 2 hours and than we just left without Waiting for the rest of our order. At the time no one came to apologize and after we left 2 more table did the same as we did. I must say that the management of the hotel come to us the next day to refund us for breakfast and late checkout.
The location is amazing and the decoration is very nice. we had a room with a great view of the beach. The photos of the hotel in booking are not as good as the reality. The gym facility is great.

United StatesAbsolutely amazing hotel. Loved all of it. Just be sure to make reservations for certain activities and restaurants. We were not able to eat at Humo while there because it was fully booked. Make a plan, don’t just decide on the fly. If you want to relax in a beautiful hotel, beautiful area, deal with friendly laid back staff, stare at the ocean from a lounge chair while sipping on a beer or cocktail…this is the spot!!!

United StatesThe food and beverage prices are definitely US or European prices. We paid much less for same quality food in Cartagena or Medellin
Beautiful Resort! We were able to completely relax and enjoy the beach, pool and spa. Rooms were comfortable and good size. Food was great, reservation are needed for some restaurants, so make those in advance. Staff was very attentive.

United StatesA little hard to get to (but great once you are there!). Reserving dinner for our group took a bit of effort. Rooftop bar was closed for a private event; wish they had left part open for other guests.
Setting and views were beautiful. Staff was lovely and delivered great service. Food was excellent; top-notch breakfast buffet. Water sports were well run. Rooms were beautiful. Beach was great, with shade trees and hammocks. Lifeguarded. Boat to the airport was the best way to go.

BrazilThe prices in restaurants are overpriced. also, all the prices were shown without taxes and service charge, so everything was 20% more expensive at the end
The structure is truly outstanding and the staff was incredible. Both the pool and the beach were great to rest and relax.

United StatesFront desk staff needs improvement. Definitely not up to Sofitel standards. Road access is pretty bad — unpaved — but the hotel does offer alternatives and we are told they have plans to pave it.
Great facilites. Modern rooms and several options of restaurants and bars. Cocktails offered at the beach bar were great. Food was very nice at the restaurants we visited. Beach is kept very clean and for hotel guests only. Restaurant and bar service was good. Excellent Wi-Fi coverage and speed.

Sweden- food is good but not fantastic - to much stones and shells on the beach - options foodwise is sparse if you stay more than 3-4 nights
- design - nature - the possibilities despite being 30 min from closest civilization - overall a really special stay

IrelandThere is service charge on everything as well as a hotel service charge, perhaps one or the other would be better. They default to the most expensive option if you ask for something like Water. The shower power could be better. Regardless of these comments, the hotel is amazing and we would defiantly recommend. It’s beautiful. One note, getting there (by car) the road is TERRIBLE, so prepare for that. And if you go by sea it can be rough.
The pictures don’t do this hotel justice, it’s so much nicer than you expect. Everything is of a very high standard. The staff are very helpful and nice. The decor and the rooms are gorgeous, all rooms have a sea view but would definitely recommend a room above the ground floor as they’re a bit exposed to other guests. The pools are spacious, lots of beds, same on the beach which you can walk right on to from the pool. Everything is very accessible. The food is of a good standard. The prices are a little high for things like ‘French’ water, so make sure to ask for the Columbia brands as they’ll default to the expensive one. The water sports are fantastic! definitely recommend.
