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 KingdomSome more food options would be nice, esp. for breakfast. The market and “Starbucks” shop used the same register so it got quite busy and long wait in the morning. Restaurant did not open til 11am. Little truck with the steps to rooms if you are elderly or have heavy luggage. May want to ask for ground level room (not upstairs or downstairs) if you have either of those concerns.
Beautiful property! Only stayed 2 days for a nearby wedding. Clean, beautiful villa with all the in room amenities to get you started. Held an event at the restaurants patio that was fabulous. Danny (food and Bev manager) was attentive and made sure our event was successful.

United StatesOur room had a lot of broken maintenance items- the dryer didn’t work, the shower was clogged so you would be standing in water every time someone showered, the bedroom light flickered so bad you couldn’t turn it on as it looked like a strobe light. I believe these items should be caught upon someone checking in. They are basic and noticeable, yet were dismissed by housekeeping staff, therefore it made for an unpleasant experience for guests. Especially, not having a dryer. When you are on vacation you don’t want to put maintenance requests in and make sure someone came by to fix it, if I wanted that I wouldn’t have left my home.
Location and views were beautiful!

United StatesNo elevator to 2nd floor, right at 959 the staff housekeeping started banging on our door, we were ready to leave just using restroom and halfway putting our stuff into the car when we heard a banging. It was a bit scary. It was the staff trying to clear our room and clean it. It wasn’t a knock it was banging. Really felt like you were getting kicked out.
It has a mini kitchen and everything you need to make a meal

United StatesThe older parts of the resort are in need of work. Our 2br/2ba Villa was nice but little things were disappointing, like one shower was missing a handle, different light bulbs in dining room chandelier, bedroom tvs not operational, window screens missing, but mostly the outside front entry to the unit was filthy.
Excellent amenities, clean and comfortable, valued and staff is amazing. Villas are accommodating for groups and kids love the pools & slides.

United StatesI didn’t like seeing open trash bags outside the villas when walking around the property. I also didn’t like having to use some of my paid stay time to clean the villa before we left- that’s part of all the fees we get charged for. I would have preferred to relax more instead of cut my stay short to clean.
The villa inside was clean and nice

United StatesDuring the early morning hours (0500–0600), I enjoy sitting on the patio with a cup of coffee, taking in the beautiful mountain view and surrounding nature. However, the loud traffic noise from the nearby highway significantly detracts from the experience. In previous visits to this resort, the traffic noise was much more subdued and did not interfere with the peaceful atmosphere.
Convenience and location. It is best for me to stay due to reasons of my family living nearby, about 12 mins drive.
