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.).

A great sunset view from the balcony, and you can have your dinner and cocktails there too. Small but clean pool, also close to a nice beach for swimming (dont walk drive).

United KingdomThe wifi was not very strong.
I liked the fact that it was not a large hotel. The service was very personal. The food and the cocktails were good. One could walk to many other facilities in the neighbourhood. The sunset was fantastic and we saw a few animals while sat on the balcony.

CanadaOur standard room had a noisy air-conditioning unit. However, when speaking with other guests who were in the oceanview suites, their aircondtioning units were quiet. If we were to return, we would definitely book an oceanview suite. The potted plants in the pool patio area needed some attention.
We loved our 3 day stay here. Excellent location overlooking a cove with lovely ocean view and spectacular sunsets. Close to stores, restaurants and transportation to Manuel Antonio Park and only a 20 min walk to two beautiful local beaches. During our 3 day stay it was a haven for wildlife encounters... 3 toed sloth, monkeys and various birds. The restaurant was situated to take in the amazing ocean view. Our room was spacious and the bed comfortable. We enjoyed the small pool and surrounding patio spaces.

United StatesOverall the property needs refreshening. Towels were frayed, in room amenities were very limited, furniture could use refinishing and that sort of thing. It appears they are starting to do so; the railings were getting painted for example.
Beautiful views! Lovely staff. Great surroundings.

GermanyThe view is breadth taking, and the restaurant is good. However; the room is not what I was waiting for. It has in the middle a tube from the air-conditioning that was dropping. The water in the bathroom has a problem and it comes only hot, even in the toilet. The chair in the balcony is broken. The sofa is extra used and not really comfortable. And some other things, for example, the door is very difficult to close.

United Statesthis hotel has the best of white Costa Rica has to offer. You’re in a mountainous jungle overlooking the ocean. The room we stayed in had two glass walls. It made you think that you were sleeping in a tree. The staff was very nice and accommodating. A truly unique experience. We were lucky enough to be there when the dates on a palm tree were ripe. Enjoying our breakfast on the balcony overlooking the jungle and the ocean, we watched six red macaws and a monkey eating their breakfast.

AustraliaThe rooms were great with heaps of windows, but that also meant it was very bright and there were only sheer curtains. Would have been great if the curtains were block out.
We had a great stay at Mango Moon! We saw some animals right at the hotel, including a sloth, monkeys and toucans. The room was clean with great views & the breakfast was really good too.
