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 StatesCheck in took 2 hours the staff friendly but totally unorganized for a Higher end accommodation. Booked a taxi to leave, never showed up. The hotel offers breakfast but on the Lower end for a luxury hotel. Hard for transport to room. Walk or wait for ride. Look for another hotel if you expect service.
Nice location. Cabin older but it works.

United StatesThe hot water did not work properly. There was no cleaning service. Lots of bugs. The property is a bit remote with mostly dirt/gravel roads. They seemed a bit understaffed. The house/cabaña could use some TLC/maintenance.
Well located, great view, lush landscaping, spacious and comfortable. Friendly and attentive staff. Great breakfast. Good restaurants on property.

United StatesI'll take full responsibility for not doing as much research as I should have prior to booking this property. We got caught up in the pictures & were very surprised by a handful of things I would highly encourage you to consider prior to booking. The cabanas are spread out from the main facilities being the restaurant and hotel/pool. You have two options to get around - walk about 10-15 minutes through a hilly environment or rely on the tuk tuk drivers to come pick you up and shuttle you around. While the rooms are gorgeous, they have no AC. AC would have been nice during the day but the nights are cool enough where this wasn't the end of the world. The windows have no screens and thus we had lots of bugs coming in as we were trying to cool down and sleep. There were two bottles of water provided upon check-in, if you wanted more they told you to go to the restaurant. They provided us with two pods of coffee, it was decaf, when asked for caffeinated we were told, again, to go to the restaurant. There is a hotel on the same property called The Brown, when you check in they notified us they had a pool but to our surprise it was $25/person for the day to access even when we came at 4pm. Again i'll take responsibility for not doing enough research and if my Spanish was better we might have had an easier time understanding the in's and out's but we had a difficult time getting a handle of this place.
The location, views, and patio are truly amazing. The cabana itself is spacious and the living area is great for multiple guests. You overlook Embalse Peñol-Guatapé and from our view you could see piedra del Peñol. The staff shuttling you around in tuk tuk's are wonderful and work very hard to help you get around the property. The restaurant had good food, drinks, and the staff was very pleasant.

ColombiaThe cabins had very restricted access to the hotel faciliti es. We went for a swimming race that advertised the cabins bur when we arrives to the cabins it turned out that theyhad no transport to the race and no breakfast that matched the hours of the race. The staff did not find solutions to any of them.
The views, them room and the bathrooms.

IrelandWe were very disappointed with our stay. The check-in process for the cabana was very slow and the check-in desk is a basic outdoor hut with no shelter (it is different to the hotel). After waiting for a long time there, we were told our cabana was not ready yet. Reception told us to wait at the restaurant and they would collect us from there when it was ready, however we had to go back to them to follow up 3 hours later. During our stay, any time we requested assistance from reception we either did not receive a reply or we were given wrong information. The roads around the property are in very bad condition, however we had to walk them a number of times because the Tuktuk we booked did not arrive. The staff at reception are nice but were unable to efficiently help with any of our requests. Also, just to mention that almost none of the staff spoke English. This is our fault, not a fault of the accommodation of course, but English-speaking tourists who do not speak Spanish should be aware (particularly because the resort is quite remote and you are reliant on reception for booking airport taxis etc).
The staff at the Praia restaurant are friendly and the food there is good. There is a beautiful view from the cabana. We did not stay in the hotel side of this accommodation, but we went up to look and the pool area looked beautiful. Also the hotel reception staff member we spoke to up there was friendly and helpful.

Costa RicaThe lobby and the Staff… the lobby it’s not what you expect for a “luxury” experience. The staff were rude doing the check in, make signed terms and conditions and then they said those terms were old and charged us more. The reception never answer our calls either our WhatsApp message. We had to asked 3-4 times to turn on the fireplace and took more than 3 hrs to get the “service”. With current staff is way far for a “luxury” experience.
The Cabañas were as the photos and nice view to the lake

United StatesReally my only recommendation would be that they pave the dirt roads for the safety of the guest and the transport equipment because we park our cars offsite which is really nice. Any special requests we had after arrival we met immediately a big positive!!!
I rented the two bedroom two bathroom cabana with complete kitchen fireplace on the patio. It came fully stocked, ready to go more impressive than any Airbnb that I’ve been in. The furnishings and all the kitchen, etc. were top shelf. Beds were super comfortable. I’m an experience traveler…. I will be back. It’s also a very beautiful place in Colombia.

United StatesDespite its enchanting ambiance, a few hiccups affected the stay—hot water glitches in the main room, non-functional coffee pot and microwave, and a bumpy road to the cabins. Additionally, the requested 6 AM car failed to arrive, yet the overall charm makes it a place I'd will be revisiting.
The cabin was a haven of beauty, adorned with a stunning view and fantastic amenities, including a delightful hot tub. The staff's unparalleled friendliness added a warm touch to the experience, making it truly memorable. Without a doubt, I would eagerly return to this wonderful retreat.
