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.).

CanadaMy family had a wonderful time staying at this property. It's only a 2 minute drive from the main town of Chachagua and about 20 minutes to La Fortuna. It is clean, bright, and spacious. While rustic, this is the perfect place for guests who are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the town of La Fortuna and have a more authentic experience of the region. There are so many little nooks and crannies to explore within a 5min drive but unfortunately we ran out of time! Loved being able to BBQ while the kids played in the pool, and sitting on the lovely back terrace in the evenings. The best part of this rental is the owner Carlos, who is a caring and attentive host that makes sure you feel right at home. We had a private tour of his family farm and my boys had so much fun learning about plants, handling the cacao beans, and making sugar cane juice. He is very passionate about his projects and it really shines through. Highly recommend!

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike.
From start to finish Carlos was the perfect host. Before arriving he answered any questions I had. He come to greet us on arrival and talked us through a few things about the house. The house itself was spotlessly clean and for family of 5 adults it had all the facilities we needed for our 3 night stay. The outside area was amazing with all of the different trees and plants. We managed to spot some birds. The pool area was great with an outdoor kitchen. Which we had a bbq one night. We also went on a tour of Carlos Cocoa farm. He showed us around and we got to taste different herbs that he grows and drink freshly pressed sugar cane. We took part in grinding the beans and drinking hot chocolate as-well as making our own chocolate bars. It was such an authentic experience and very informative. My son planted a tree on his farm which he hopes to come back in a few years to see how it is growing .

AustraliaIt was really hot when we stayed and quite difficult to get cool in the house even with fans. Needed to sleep under mosquito nets as the house is open, which tend to be hotter.
Lots of space. Enjoyed all the outdoor spaces and seeing lots of birds and iguanas. The pool was nice for cooling off. Carlos was lovely and helpful and quick to respond to any questions

United StatesI loved this house so so much, I enjoyed being surrounded by nature, the privacy of the pool and how cozy this house was. Very comfortable. Not too in the country but not in city. It's a perfect location we had a bakery and market just a few minutes away which were perfect. Fenced in yard was also a big deal for me for when my son wanted to play outside.

United StatesThis place exceeded my expectations: The space is HUGE (we almost felt guilty for having so much space for just two people) and the price is super affordable, it was almost too good to be true. Carlos arranged a taxi for us whenever we needed, as we did not have a rental car (I would recommend getting if you are trying to go back and forth between here and La Fortuna), but honestly we didn't want to leave the property. The pool, hammocks, pork, lights, and plants in the garden where everything we needed. We even had a sloth neighbor to watch hanging out in the trees! Went on a wildlife tour in La Fortuna, but honestly we saw all of the animals right here at the property! Had a night tour to ourselves at the house haha. 3 days was not enough time here, really really cool Costa Rican house, and Carlos is awesome!!!!! I've stayed at dozens of homes, hostels and airbnbs over the last 15 years, and this is my new favorite place ever.

NetherlandsThe house has quite a ‘do-it-yourself’ feeling. E.g. Showers weren’t great. All walls are ‘open’ towards the road so you hear everything- and on this quiet road surprisingly much heavy traffic, and barking dogs. So ear plugs highly needed. It is further from town than I had expected. That is mostly my bed when booking it. It was not a real biggy tbh.
Nice hide away in the green Carlos is superkind and helpful!

IrelandFly nets on windows had holes . No fly net on back door just open to the elements and bugs . Mosquito nets also had holes . All furniture worn . Very rustic setting. very far from La Fortuna due to conditions of roads. Some families will enjoy the authentic experience of living in a Rural setting but it was not for us.
Out door above ground pool was small but pleasant, views from back garden ,big fridge and tv ,wifi coverage in the house .Washing machine.
