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):
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 StatesIt could have been cleaner. There were remnants of bugs, dust, and the haphazard lizard. The towels had the mildew smell at times. Bedding was very basic (thin sheet and thin comforter on top). In room coffee not provided
The staff were very kind and accommodating. If it wasn’t for the staff I would have given it lower stars. The food at the restaurant was really good. The hotel is about 200 feet from the ocean which was wonderful.

BulgariaThe facilities were starting to get old. The door was a bit hanging - it was hard to open and close and left a hole big enough for geckos to enter. The coffee machine didn't work well and we couldn't make a good coffee. The breakfast was poor. Even though we were there at 3 pm we had to wait a bit for our room to be ready. All of these were relatively small issues but worth mentioning as the hotel was more like a medium-range rather than cheap.
It was a beautiful oceanfront resort where you can experience the tropical mood. It was a resort of small houses surrounded by tropical trees. You just step out of the front gate and you are on a beautiful Pacific beach with soft sand which dark color we find charming. The rooms were spacious and clean and there was even a coffee machine. It's a bit remote which makes it super quiet and relaxing and means that the beach is almost yours. The staff was very friendly and the service was overall good.

CanadaThe toilet and plumbing had some minor problems. Signage to find the place was confusing. The hotel still seems to be identified by its old name, so when you arrive you need to ask if this is the right place.

United StatesThe dinners at the restaurant.
Loved the bungalow style of the hotel. Very quiet and clean. The pool was amazing. The beach is very nice but the waves are quite large and at low tide it’s a long way to the water from the hotel. We did go in the water which is very warm and has a nice sandy bottom without rocks. The beach is almost deserted and very walkable. The sunsets were gorgeous! Staff was extremely nice and friendly, Renzo, Randall and Roberto were great. They put up with our not so great Spanish and made great drinks! The on site restaurant is very nice, the included breakfast was good but both dinners we had there were mediocre. We really didn’t feel like driving anywhere and there are no other options within walking distance.

GermanyThis hotel is direct on the beach. Very quiet no traffic no noises. Beautiful sunsets and we were lucky to see a sloth. The rooms are spacious and have super comfortable beds and a big bathroom. You have a little patio with a view to the ocean. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Easy checkin and checkout.

United StatesSome facilities were pretty worn out or broken. Our room had a window shade/curtain that was broken as well as an inoperable vent fan in the bathroom. Pool area was nice but many deck chairs were slightly or severely broken. Restaurant was fine but food was only mediocre.

United StatesLoved this hotel. No complaints.
Loved the location of the hotel - it's right on Esterillos Beach, with some amazing sunsets. The pool is nice (a little small, but nice). Gym has great views of the ocean. The rooms have this classic hacienda style, with a really comfortable mattress. Staff were super friendly at reception. The restaurant is outdoors with views of Esterillos beach.

United StatesThe hotel tried to overcharge us. We paid in cash for a shuttle driver and the hotel added the shuttle costs to their bill as well (160 USD) It seemed that we were also extra charged in food. Felt like a rip off unfortunately. Also put shower was poorly fixed and very cheaply set up.
Beautiful beach and nice hotel complex, nice staff at the restaurant and front desk. Great pool. Recommend this place for familiar and people who do not care about culture or specifically Costa Rica and it's tradition. Great for resort vacation
