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 StatesBreakfast was a 5 on a scale of 10. Don't know how to cook an egg and the food quality was ho-hum. The wait staff lacked any sense of urgency, and one had a resentful attitude.
The location was excellent. the beach was the best we experienced on the island...superior to the other 6 we visited. It was super convenient to the hotel too.

United StatesThe hotel is only accesible by stairs. No elevator. Our room (201) was above the bar and the staff made bothering noise at 06:45 am while preparing the place for their daily tasks. Also, the restaurant’ service was quite slow (45 minutes waiting for our meals and we ate there three times during our stay)
Location, surrounding environment, close by to a quite nice beach.

Beautiful property and beach. Hotel has a lovely atmosphere, with wide spaces, comfortable rooms and amenities. Staff was very kind and welcoming. Would definitely recommend staying here as a couple or as a family. Easy access to a beautiful beach with lots of beach chairs and service. I forgot my kindle at the end and they took it to me at the airport - really went the extra mile.

FranceYou are basically located into a closed area where there is not much to do without a car. The grocery store is >4km away… Too bad you have a nice golf area but it is not allowed to walking around. Too bad

BrazilThey shouldn’t advertise the pool. It’s a little bigger than a jacuzzi. But who needs a pool with such a great beach just across the parking lot??
Nice bed, room and bathroom with good amenities. Great semi private beach. One of my favorites in CUR. Small but decent gym.

United StatesWe were so spoiled at Bayside with a wonderful room, excellent location, and fabulous beach with crystal clear water. We really enjoyed the option of several restaurants on site. But the exceptional attentiveness of the hotel staff was what made us feel spoiled. We lacked nothing, and the staff made us feel like we were the most important people in the place. If we return to Curacao, we will stay at Bayside Boutique.

United StatesThe toilet paper. When you are staying in such a nice place where they pay attention to detail the fact that the toilet paper was worse than a public beach was disappointing. The restaurant food was good. The service was slower than any other place we ate the entire week. But it was onsite so we ate there 3 times.
The front desk staff! Renee is absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed the size of our room. Chairs were very comfortable and the ability to log in to streaming services on the television was a plus as we like to watch a little something before going to sleep. Beach access to Blue Bay was a short 1 min walk! We rented a car and had read reviews about location. We liked the location, it was 20 minutes to downtown and great restaurants one way and 30 minutes to Cas Abao the other direction.

United StatesNo complaints at all. Quite a few steps to get to upper floor. Would recommend that a guest with any kind of mobility issue should book their room on the pool level.
Lovely. 100 yards to a beautiful beach, front desk staff very helpful. On site restaurant was good, (The restaurant on the beach was excellent.) Housekeeping staff is very good. Room was large with very nice balcony overlooking the pool.

The staff were exceptional, knowledgeable, friendly and eager to help. The food was good and well priced. I loved the courtyard with plants and shade and the lobby was delightful. It's a very short walk to the beach and beautiful water. Try Brass Boer for upscale chaises and a gourmet dining experience.
