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 StatesI can’t think of one thing.
I loved everything about the property. It’s right near the beach, and it’s at the quieter end of downtown, so it was perfect for us. We never heard any neighbors the entire time we were there. I was there with my daughter and we each had our own room and bathroom and it was just perfect. Lucas is an amazing and responsive host.

IsraelI liked everything:)
Lucas the host is very nice and welcoming. He has explained me exactly how to get to the apartment in advance and also how to get to the central station to get the bus to the airport. Moreover he has been waiting for me until 22:00, even though I should have arrived before. The apartment was very convenient, big and with air conditioning in both rooms. The location is perfect as it is close to the beach, the center, but in a quiet street so we could get rest perfectly

GermanyLocation right at the beach and close to many shops and restaurants. Off street parking was very handy as you otherwise must pay for parking in central Playa del Carmen. We took the ground floor apartment, which had a patio with direct pool access, which was great for the kids. The host very kindly was flexible with the check out and occupying the parking spot as we did not fly out until the evening.

SloveniaIt is a huge apartment with a great terrace with a pool view, two big bedrooms and a spacious kitchen and living room. The owner was very helpful with all the information what to do, where to eat and what to see in Playa del Carmen. He also provided us with water in the appartment so we didn’t have to buy it. He also helped us with ordering a taxi for going back home which was very helpful.The appartment is on a great location,just 3 minutes from the beach and 5 minutes from famous Quinta Avenida. It is very comfy and safe place to stay in Playa del Carmen, I highly recommend it!

CanadaThere are 3 units for rent, but pictures for all of them which is confusing. Find out which unit you are getting. There is no elevator. We were on the ground floor which is about 8 stairs up. There is no hairdryers, ( although Lucas gave us one to use for our stay), no clothes iron although we bought one and left it in the unit. You must pay cash in pesos for the unit when you arrive, which you must be prepared for. We were, but others may not be. It would have been great if there were beach chairs, umbrellas to use or rent from Lucas as the beach is close by. We were there for a month, having them would have been nice touch. We did use the Encanto beach club a few times, which was good. Having some blankets for the beds would be nice. Just a sheet, but was good most of the time.
The 2 bedroom / 2 bath was in a great location, just 2 blocks off 5th avenue and 1.5 blocks from the beach. There are lots of restaurants and shops within a few blocks. A large Chedraui grocery store is within a 14 minute walk. The Las Brias complex has 4 buildings surrounding a swimming pool and large palapa. Our condo was located on the ground floor and had a large terrace, complete with hammock and patio chairs. The suite was very spacious with large bedrooms, bathrooms, well equipped kitchen and living room. Each bedroom had air conditioning. (* Note there are 2 other units for rent on the 2nd / 3rd floors). Our property manager, Lucas was responsive and easily contacted using WhatsApp, if we required any info surrounding drinking water, transportation, cleaning, laundry, restaurants, etc. Please note to bring mosquito repellent with you or purchase some while there. They exist in the area.

SloveniaA large and luxurious apartment with a wonderful view of the pool. The location is excellent, 3 minutes to the beach and 3 minutes to 5th Av. In the morning there is a wonderful view of the rising sun through the palm trees. We are travelers from Slovenia, without a plan and luckily we met the host Lukas, who deserves all the praise. He helped us with all the tours, excursions, beaches, restaurants and further destinations we need to visit. If you have the opportunity to book this accommodation, I highly recommend it.

United StatesFinding the entrance was slightly confusing - the name written on the entrance to the hotel was "Las Brisas" and not Marisol Beach. The cab driver didn't know of the place but dropped us around where the GPS told us to be and even a concierge at the hotel across the street didn't know of Marisol beach when asked. Shortly thereafter Lucas, the owner, arrived and then everything was all good. He was very nice and accommodating once we found each other. One other small thing - we could've used more blankets, only a sheet was provided.
The condo was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. It was a great place for making day trips to the beach as well as the local shops and street life, both of which are only a few hundred feet away. The balcony was awesome!! Lots of chairs and a great spot to unwind at the end of an action-packed day. Nice showers and bathrooms and a great kitchen, it even had an automatic lime juicer - many margs were made! The beds were 2 kings and they were very comfy. Wifi worked well.
