How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewKas Hamaka was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived, the experience exceeded all expectations. Audrey met me at check-in and spent nearly an hour walking me through the apartment and sharing her personal tips for making the most of the island—which were incredibly helpful. The apartment itself is spacious, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything you could need: fridge, stove, cooler, beach chairs, and more. It’s located right on the water with a private dock—perfect for swimming or snorkeling just steps from your door. The location is also ideal—within walking distance to great restaurants and close to the boulevard, which is perfect for a morning jog or an evening walk along the sea. To top it all off, the property has a friendly resident cat who might come by to say hello, and you’ll likely spot plenty of lizards grazing in the sun. It all adds to the relaxed, island vibe that makes this place so special.

Verified reviewThe atmosphere, decor and location were ideal for me especially as I was arriving by boat and the dinghy dock is very close to the property. It was so easy to get my luggage from my boat to the room which is often a logistical nightmare.

Verified reviewI enjoyed a 10-day stay at Kas Hamaka, and it exceeded all my expectations! This was my second visit to Bonaire and my first time staying at Kas Hamaka. From the moment I arrived, I immediately felt at home. The location is absolutely perfect—close to everything yet peaceful and quiet. The property is impeccably clean, and the atmosphere is so welcoming that it feels like a home away from home. Every detail seemed thoughtfully arranged to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay. I truly enjoyed every aspect of my time here and can confidently say I will be back! Kas Hamaka has set the standard for my future visits to Bonaire. Highly recommended!

Verified reviewWalking distance to multiple beach entry points to swim, snorkel or dive, close to fishermen who might allow you to go fish with them for a fee. Close to a bakery with the best pistachio pastry, Mexican restaurant, Indian restaurant with delicious butter chicken and garlic butter naan. The apt has 2 outdoor sitting areas, 1 upstairs with a great obstructed view. Very nice ceiling fans and a/c in the bedroom upstairs. The bathroom is downstairs. The apt has a safe and full size refrigerator with ice trays, ice packs for the cooler, water pitcher and multiple dishes if you want to cook
My stay was cut short due to Crowdstrike. I love Bonaire and enjoyed my stay here.

Verified reviewClose to the sea, centrally located, free easy parking at all time
The airco did not really cool the room enough. This is because it has to cool too big area. I.e, since the bedroom is upstairs but not really closed off/ separated from the rest of the appt, it will never be able to effectively cool the bedroom. Furthermore, I traveled for business. The assignment was planned for 5 days. We finished the job in three days. I stayed for for nights, had a reservation for 5 days. But due to the renting conditions the traveller cannot cancel or make changes to the dates. Hence I got no discount or refund
Hey Dennis, You booked the apartment for 4 nights (not 5) on a booking platform (which I pay a commission for). Then on the 3rd day you inform us you want to leave a day earlier. We only have 5 apartments, it is our livelyhood. I would never been able to rent our the apartment to somebody else. We also have a minumum stay of 4 nights. And I gave you a 25$ discount on your last night. So I think that was fair enough. Concerning the airconditioning: The bedroom is pretty big so we have installed a big fan and a big aircon. The aircon iin combination with the fan should cool down the apartment to a comfortable level.

Verified reviewWe enjoyed 2 wonderful weeks at Kas Hamaka and recovered wonderfully and brought back many unforgettable experiences and impressions from our stay. Kas Hamaka is perfectly located: The sea, including fantastic sunsets, is right on the doorstep. The accommodation is well equipped and we loved enjoying breakfast on the terrace and having a delicious barbecue in the evening. The hosts are super friendly and very helpful and have lots of good tips.

Verified reviewExcellent host, amazing accommodation, clean, stylish, excellent facilities. Close to marina and restaurants.
We liked everything and couldn’t fault it. The only minor things were some cracked bowls and an odd kitchen item was missing, only 1 large cup so husband used a glass, no chopping board etc, but if we asked Audrey she would have sorted it no problem. We didn’t bother asking as managed without, it wasn’t an issue.
Thanks for your nice words Joanne. And yes we have plenty cups, chopping boards etc on stock. So I will check the apartment and make sure the kitchen is stocked again. Was great meeting you and Jon!

Verified reviewIt was quiet and right on the water. A little oasis tucked into the Boulevard. This will be where we stay the next time we are back on the island. While the main host was away a friend (Joyce) was able to help us with check in and check out. She also gave us a ton of information about the island and what to make sure we did and what to avoid.
Zero complaints at all. That we had to leave and go back home.

Verified reviewLocation was great. Walked to all of our dinners in town. Great snorkeling right across the street. Drove to further sites out of town with plenty to see within 15 minute drive. After seeing the area where the inclusive resorts are I was very glad we were where we were and not by the resorts.
