Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesNo complaints.
The pool was a lot bigger than expected! It was a beautiful seating area around it, and the owners were very kind. Our room was nice and clean! The doors were beautiful! They take pride in their property, and the grounds are beautiful! It is a very convenient spot on the island to stay. We will book here again.

CanadaThe only thing we didnt love was the roosters (they are everywhere on the island). Learned on the first morning to have music play overnight and that worked! We also would have loved some room darkening curtains, the ones they have are very cheerful but dont block a lot of sun.
The pool area is fantastic, the bed is comfortable and the kitchen had all the necessities to make our breakfast and dinners. The very nice man across the street drove us to the airport (he offered) and wouldnt accept any money. The staff answers all inquiries instantly, even when we said no rush (request for replacement garbage bags).

United StatesLocation is 3km from ferry terminal and Playa Norte, where most of the commercial activity is, although there are great restaurants and less crowded beaches nearby.
Very clean. Convenient kitchen. Supermarket in walking distance back toward centro. A/C in bedroom did cool entire apartment. Jorge, the property owner was very friendly and worked hard to communicate with my elementary Spanish. He even offered us a ride to the ferry when we checked out. Arturo, the apartment owner and primary online contact also helped with golf cart rental, although Jorge apparently owns a competitor, which I didn’t discover until his free tour of the island on the way to the ferry.

United StatesWe enjoyed the pool but wish it hadn't had a sun cover so we could've spent more time there/lounging in the sun. That being said, we can understand why some people might want the pool to be protected from the sun.
We received efficient and friendly help every time we reached out to Villa Pajaros with a question or request. We had a group of 10 staying in various suites during our time there and it was the perfect set up for us. We got a lot of value out of our stay at Villa Pajaros and would, without a doubt, stay again.

CanadaIt was a bit pricey, but it was probably more expensive because it was peak season. There is a rooster than crows in the morning, but that's pretty much the only annoyance about the whole place.
The place was lovely. We really appreciated how well stocked the apartment, especially the kitchen was. The apartment felt extremely safe and we appreciated how lit up it was at night. It wasn't super close to downtown, but cabs were 6-8 bucks CAD each way. There was a lovely little restaurant half a block away that we ate dinners at several nights. The bed was super comfy!

CanadaFound the bed to be a little uncomfortable, the room was small and the construction all day wasn’t great for relaxing by the pool. My only complaints, the pros outweigh the cons.
The grounds were well maintained, the communication with Frank was great, the pool was refreshing and we enjoyed the lounge chairs. The multiple terraces within the facility was something we also enjoyed. We could see the sunset and sunrise from the rooftop each night if we wished. The room had everything we required on this trip.

CanadaI was supplied with a small jug of drinking water on arrival but it is quite inconvenient to buy drinking water from the Chedraui. You have to take a taxi to get it, and it causes to much plastic waste. To me it is inexcusable that Villas Pajaros does not supply water in the large, reusable 5 gallon jugs.
This unit was an apartment with equipped kitchen. The king bed was comfortable and although it is located just off a busy route, it was quiet from traffic. The morning roosters were another story..... ear plugs help but I got used to them. Villas Pajaros is located mid island. The public bus goes by roughly every 30 minutes (10 or 20 pesos) and it's easy to flag a taxi as well. Villas Pajaros has a beautiful pool area and ample areas to relax, eat al fresco and charcoal grill if you're inclined. There is a laundry service just around the corner which was wonderful. Walking distance to mid island restaurants (e.g. Oscar's is 300 meters) and about 300 meters to the Chedraui, the major island grocery & liquor store. It is certainly possible to walk to centro and I did this several times for exercise, but renting a golf cart or moto would makes sense. I found it best to walk on the other side of the island. Management was responsive. There are a lot of stairs between the apartments and the parking / pool area.

CanadaUnfortunately, there was construction going on building the owner's new home creating unpleasant noise for relaxing by the wonderful pool. Looking forward, when this is finished it will be a great place to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the island. The other concern were the neighbourhood roosters! Bring ear plugs and you will sleep better. This is quite common everywhere on the island.
We were greeted on time upon our arrival to Isla Mujeres by the manager, Frank, who provided a complimentary shuttle to the Villa. He introduced us to the room and provided the keys. We refreshed ourselves shortly after in the wonderful pool. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. The kitchen provided the basics we needed to prepare the meals we chose to make at home. The property is well maintained, perhaps given that the owner lives in the new home adjacent to the rental units. We travelled around the island using taxis and the public bus. You do not need a golf cart if you choose. Frank arranged an early morning departure taxi shuttle to the Ultramar Ferry for us that was on time. Overall we were very pleased and would stay at Villa Parajos again.

CanadaThe water supply went off three times during the week. The staff responded quickly but it was a nuisance. One shower stopped working completely on the last day. There was construction noise right next door and the workers played loud music all day. There was a lovely outdoor area for congregating and grilling but no working grill. The pool shower had no water. This was a shame because a great deal of work has gone into creating a beautiful outdoor space by the pool. It has enormous potential but needs a little work to finish off. I hope they fix up these little things because it is a great pool area and outdoor space and we spent a lot of time there. It's quite beautiful and clean. Lots of pluses.
Lots of room, lovely pool area, clean facilities, pleasant staff. Easy to get to by bus or taxi and walking distance to a terrific supermarket at Chedraui and to Oscar's restaurant.

CanadaWater stopped working now and then but it was always fixed quickly. Bathroom was very small..Kitchen plates and bowls and cutlery were dollar store quality but they did the trick. Weak internet. TV but not a smart TV so no options for Netflix or English programming. Inside seating was table and 2 chairs. Chairs were just wooden fold up chairs and were not comfortable..
Great location mid island. Set back from the road so there was no road noise. Close to the islands main grocery store though the side walks to get there would be tough if you had any mobility issues. Stairs to second level.had a 4 inch rise so easy to climb. Had everything we needed including beach towels. Beautiful wood carved furniture..pool and grounds were cleaned daily. Nice shared patio spaces. Lots of storage and closet space. Very safe area of the island. Very comfortable king sized bed and pillows. Air conditioner was newer and worked well. Check in was very easy and quick, right across from the ferry terminal. We were then taken down to the unit by golf cart.

United StatesLocation is not really near any attractions and the area roadways are not having continuous sidewalks or lighting—and there is animal waste on pathways, so be careful! Management is NOT on site which is inconvenient for checking in/out (which differs from instructions on Booking.com). Although a 24hr guard at gate was mentioned at check-in, s/he was never observed at all for the whole week! Note there is no shuttle to anything. No smoke detectors in rooms, which is worrisome. Water pressure in shower and kitchen sing is very low—just better than a fast drip. Housekeeping is only weekly and there was insufficient toilet paper. All door locks were loose. No strongbox for valuables present in room. Management should provide each room with an information card having: (1) Address of property; (2) Phone # of manager for emergencies; (3) Phone # of local police; (4) Phone # of fire and paramedic for emergencies; (5) Location of trash bin; (6) Phone # for taxi service at night. (7) Location of a coin laundrette. All this aside, stay was pleasant and relaxing. Nice to experience this aspect of island life, but I wouldn’t stay again. Definitely not a 3-star experience.
Friendly and quiet place with very nice and relaxing swim pool. Bedding was comfy and AC worked. Affordable island bus line stops at driveway (flag the driver to stop) and plenty of taxis if you are in a rush.
