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.).

The room lacks aircondition, which means it is extremely hot all the time even though there is a fan.
The hosts are amazing and very helpful. We found mazunte quite uncomfortable but this place was a nice oasis a small walk from the Main Street. The rooms are beautiful and the bed is very comfortable. Very nice small pool.

No AC but didn’t need it-open air with fans. One temp water, fine for the hot days. Steep hill from town.
Beautiful setting, only 3 Cabañas , very private. Nice shady patio with chairs and hammock. Small but nice pool for cooling off. Right across from the trail to punta cometa .

Cabañas Amaia is located on a hill above Mazunte. The grounds of the cabañas are beautifully landscaped, with lots of lush green, flowers and shade. We loved to cool off in the small pool. The cabañas are very spacious and have a private feel to them. We enjoyed our stay very much.

I would love to have the option for breakfast and food available, but it is small and I knew when I booked it that I would need to eat all my meals out. It needs a couple tables for drinks and coffee at the pool, but that's such a little and easily fixable thing.
I liked Julien and Adriana very much although I didn't see them much. Julien was attentive to needs and was always available via WhatsApp and helped arrange some things for me. Imelda who is there all morning is very kind and helpful and served up a nice cup of coffee. I liked the design of the cabins and secluded peaceful feeling of the place and its close to Punta Cometa for the sunset and two beaches as well as to town.

We had a wonderful stay! The major highlights: having a pool to relax in (which was always quiet so felt like a private pool!); very friendly and helpful staff who provided recommendations and advice (and replied to any messages during our stay very promptly); well-located with quick access to two main beaches and a sunset viewpoint; next to a shop for supplies; only a short walk to the main street in Mazunte with plenty of restaurants, bars and shops; the property was peaceful and the rooms were shaded and cool. Would definitely stay again if we return!

We came in the rainy season but despite this, we enjoyed ourselves and were happy and comfortable in the cabana.
A lovely, quiet and private garden oasis with a comfortable king bed. Amazing value for money. The hosts went above and beyond in every way. Special thanks to Julian for being attentive to our every need, booking us taxis and reservations and generally being super responsive and looking after us. And to Imelda too!

Nothing any human can control, but you’re in the jungle…so keep your citronella handy! :)
STUNNING cabanas in Mazunte. Honestly, don’t read any future than this sentence…just book it. Immersed in nature, in the perfect location a few minutes walk into the action, the pool was a dream. Really super lovely owners as well. I totally fell in love with Mazunte, and this was the dream spot to enjoy it!

The cabins are incredible! Beautifully built and there are so many amazing details. They are also really private so you feel like you have the place to yourself. We loved an evening dip in the pool too. Great location! Julien gave us lots of great tips to make the most of our time there and it was the perfect base to explore other towns nearby.

I don’t think there was anything we didn’t like!
Super lovely place to stay. The cabin was impeccable and made with quality materials and eye for detail. It’s much nicer in reality than on the websites photos. Bed very comfortable, loved the little terrace and hammock outside. There is a locker for your valuables. The dipping pool was nice to cool off at the end of the day. The cabins are very secluded, it feels like you are the only guest there. Free drinking water and also tea and coffee in the mornings. The location is good: a little way up a side road from the main road, so it’s still close to bars and restaurants but far enough away to be very quiet. I’d say it’s maybe about five minutes walking to the main road. It is also opposite the trail head to the Punta Cometa, so it is easy to visit early in the morning for sunrise. The host was very friendly and helpful.

The fact we had to leave...:)
It might look as we have given standard tens, but this isn't the case. This cabana has really exceeded our expectations. It is'nt the cheapest of the area but what a wonderful place!! Julien & Andriana are very sympathic hosts and they do all they can to make your stay really prefect. Beautiful cabanas, an amazing garden and a very nice swimming pool. So nice to cool off in the pool several times a day! So, really guys, you've done an amzing job here and we will spread the word to our friends to stay with you if they come to Mexico.

Nada.
Thank you Julien for a wonderful stay at your cabañas. We looked at lots of other hotels but chose Amaia because of all the great reviews, and we were not disappointed! Such a beautiful property. It's far enough away from Mazunte proper to have lots of peace and quiet, but close enough to enjoy everything that there is to do in the town. The property was immaculately clean, and the pool and outdoor shower was a lovely thing to come back to after a day on the beach. Julien is a brilliant host, who has a lot of care for the property and the surrounding area. It's the perfect place to stay in Mazunte. Do yourself a favour and book it!

We had a perfect stay here at Cabañas Amaia, probably the most comfortable stay we have had on our whole trip. The pool was lovely on the stormy day when the swell was too large for swimming, the morning coffee was so welcomed and the bed was very comfortable! Plus Julien and Adriana were super lovely hosts and very welcoming :-)

A beautiful bungalow ensconced in tropical gardens, lush with bird of paradise in bloom. A hammock and comfy chairs on the deck, inviting you to wile away an afternoon, or a day, absorbing the wonder of it all. An almost private swimming pool steps away. It felt like it our own private retreat. And Julian, the creator, always available to help or chat in Spanish, English or French. A special person who is a pleasure to meet.
