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.).

JamaicaI wish there was more nightly entertainment that appeals to the younger crowd. Most activities seems more for middle aged and old people. The internet is very slow and spotty in some areas There were no free water activities offered by the hotel by the beach; you had to pay for all those activities if you wish to participate in it. We got locked out of our master suite on night 2 and our door gave problems ever since. It was fixed and the chip was changed but there were times when we had to repeatedly hit the door to get the sensors working so we can get access to our room. While breakfast was always great, most days the menu seems repetitive. Limited options for room service menu (for food). We were aggressively haggled by vendors who tried to force items on us by the beach even when we repeatedly said no. We didn’t enjoy the beach so much for that reason because we hardly could peacefully enjoy the day so we rarely went to the beach in the days. Instead, we walked the beach at nights because that’s when it was most peaceful since all vendors are gone and we can soak up the moment.
The food tastes excellent The staff is very friendly and professional Our room and the hotel grounds were always kept clean Our personal concierge was very nice and ensured we had a great stay at the hotel throughout The gym was a nice feature The mini safari they have on grounds was also beautiful The minibar and snacks were always stocked We loved how spacious our master suite was from room to bathroom. We had two jacuzzis so if either of us wanted some alone time we could both use the jacuzzis at our own leisure. The shower is ask very spacious with two shower heads so a couple can bathe together without bothering the other.

United StatesRoom was way too cold. Requested blankets which we never got. Ask staff to assist with the air conditioner but got no help. We left the slider open to warm the room. Very very uncomfortable because I did not pack warm clothing. Had to buy a long sleeve shirt. Service could be a bit more accommodating.
Breakfast was adequate…restaurants adequate as well. The maid was very very good. The staff that stocked the minibar was wonderful!!!

United KingdomThe room we stayed in was damp and had a musty smell, the cleaner left us air freshener as they could also smell how bad it was. My clothes started to get damp and smell. I’ve left with a very chesty cough. This is something they should address for the next guests. each resort had different events on in the evenings but we had no way of knowing what was on - an itinerary would have been useful. We got engaged on the beach while there and paid extra for a romantic dinner but the hotel did not make any acknowledgement of our engagement.
The grounds are beautiful, we had access to other resorts which was great! We went golfing one day and the course was great The service provided by the staff was amazing! Leo had us very well looked after everyday. The food was ok and the we had some good options. Beach access was easy - just a 5min ride in the buggy and the beach is beautiful. Food was also available at the beach.

United StatesWhen we left the resort, both my spouse and I were covered in itchy rashes and bites we believe to be from sand fleas and uncleanliness. Our bed in the suite seemed to give us an allergic reaction, and the day beds outside didn't seem to be very clean. Also, Karnica was horrible. The steaks were cooked until they were rock hard even when we ordered them medium rare because they wouldn't let us order rare. We hated that some hecklers were working on the resort that wouldn't leave us alone trying to sell trips off the resort. We tried one that was not fun, so we wouldn't do that again.
The staff was exceptional in their service and constant greeting. They seemed to enjoy their job and made the experience wonderful. Many of the restaurants were very good, and we loved taking advantage of the included room service. The pools were amazing, and it was great to be able to stay on the resort and not get bored. We want to especially thank Gustavo with The Reserve management, Esaie Weche with the H2O bar, and Leonardo with the Hydrogrill. They were incredible and truly made our stay.

CanadaAt the time of booking we didn’t know there this property is one of a few under the same umbrella yet had different privileges. Educate yourself before booking as there are some restrictions on the beach that you might not like.
the grounds are large and beautiful. Meticulously taken care of, felt so good walking and admiring palm trees and so many flowers. there are many swimming pools and the beach is very beautiful
