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 StatesThe restaurants are ok. We have never been impressed with the food but . They need to do better. My husband’s meatloaf was like overcooked cardboard. He should have returned it.
The room was great and we loved having a patio that we could sit out on. The casino and hotel property very nice in a beautiful setting.

United StatesMy sister and I were night owls and the only restaurant that stayed open till 2 am served shellfish. As someone with a severe shellfish allergy I didn't feel comfortable eating there. So we had to pay for Uber eats which was expensive because of the location. That and the toilet paper is extremely thin which is something I wouldn't have expected from a resort like this.
It felt luxurious and clean. We even got a free $20 dining credit for breakfast. The casino was great and staff constantly checked to keep it clean.

United StatesI wish there was a better range of food options. We ended up going into Santa Fe more than I wanted. The restaurants seemed pricey for limited selections. I wish they had a buffet! I saw what looks like a setup for one but maybe they don’t do it anymore. I also wish they had a ceiling fan in the bedroom.
The pool and hot tub options were great! Beautiful location. It felt comfortable. Our room was huge!

United StatesThe Coffee shop hours didn’t accommodate our schedule. We get up at 5am (live on the east coast) and have to wait till 6:30 before anything opens. I drove out to Sante Fe to get coffee and breakfast for the family.
Very quiet, lots of things to do, pool/gym was great. I would love to come back and play golf when I have more time.

United StatesI arrived (stayed) at the property to attend a concert. In that regard, I felt as though the acoustics at the venue, which was a ballroom, left a little to be desired. As Awesome as the property is, it would be nice, in my humble opinion, if there was a venue specifically designated for music, i.e. a theater or possibly an Amphitheater.
Exceptional staff

United StatesNo choices for food. Their website is not up to date as far as choices and variety. One of the lounges on the website is listed as serving food, including a menu, they no longer serve food. There were only two places to have a sit down meal unless you wanted a deli sandwich. I went into one of the restaurants to treat myself to a grilled ribeye with grilled asparagus. Although this is still on their website as well as advertised in the facility it is no longer available. The menu at this restaurant has changed and it’s for someone with rich taste and a hefty wallet. They are remodeling, but that is not an excuse for inaccurate information on the website for food choices only to find they are no longer available. They need to reflect the changes. I made my choice to stay here based on having places to eat without having to go out.
Staff was very courteous and helpful. Room was exceptionally clean. Grounds and common areas very clean. I was granted an early check in for no charge. There is only one restaurant for breakfast. Both mornings my food was great.
