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 StatesAbout a 20 min drive to Playa Espadilla and the majority of the restaurants. Wish the room offered two beds instead of a bed and soft couch. Lights on our patio did not work. Wish they had a restaurant that offered more dinner options given how far they are from town.
Staff was very welcoming. We had a room right by the pool which was great. We loved the property and got to watch all the birds fly around every morning. The breakfast was amazing, my son loved the coconut and banana pancakes. The waterfall on property was great! Would 100% stay again.

SwitzerlandThe rooms are a bit dated (although still clean and comfortable). The parking lot was too full at times. The apartment we were in needed a few more cooking implements in order to be really functional (but they let us borrow what we needed from the hotel kitchen, so that solved the problem!)
Good location if you want to be able to walk into Quepos. The service was excellent - really friendly welcome and good communication by what’s app before arrival and help booking tours (we booked a tour of Manuel Antonio park via the hotel and it was great). Quirky and original design.

PolandI believe the lady at the reception needs a raise as she handles so much from reception to breakfest service and I think more people should be employed as the waiting time for breakfest was more than an hour.

CanadaThere was a limited bar menu and for such a lovely place there were a couple of minor fixes needed - running toilet and lights that flickered.
Really nice property, walkable distance to town of Quepos. Bed really comfortable, A/C great, and comfortable sitting area.

NetherlandsRestaurants are 15-20 min driving from the hotel (sometimes on pitch dark roads) - that was not an issue for us but i guess you need a car if you stay here. Make sure to let the staff know if you have mobility issues - the way up to some of the studios is easy but you need to take some stairs (heavy suitcases can be problematic). We booked The Nest and it was quite small but comfortable overall (the sliding door from the bathroom was broken so the door was not closing all the way).
We saw quite some wild life on the hotel premises: different types of monkeys and parrots. You could see the sea in the distance. We spent time on the terrace, was nice to have one (we booked The Nest). The staff was nice and they have 2 really chill dogs.

United StatesThis wasn’t an issue for us, but there are a lot of steps depending on your room choice.
Very unique boutique family run hotel! Loved the creative design integrating the hotel into the landscape , wonderful views & location surrounded by trees. We stayed in the Nest, which was small but had great views & a little outdoor seating area. Hotel has a refreshing small pool with waterfall. The sons of the owner that worked there were extremely kind & helpful. They were accommodating - allowed us to drop our luggage off early before check-in & packed some fruit for us to take on an early morning excursion. Walking distance to Marina & Quepos.

United KingdomToThe single negative for me was that at times the Internet went down for an hour or so. Maybe this was the heavy rain but I could not have done any work if I had needed to at these times. Luckily I was only there for 3 days so it didn't really affect me too much. There is nothing else negative to say, this was an incredible hotel with great staff and food. Absolutely refreshing and peaceful.
An incredibly beautiful place in the middle of a mini jungle! Monkeys running around the tree tops and all manner of birds everyday. Absolutely tranquil place to spend 3 days and unplug from the rat race. My suite was like a tree house built into the side of the mountain. Great breakfast included with my room, choice of foods, a nice swimming pool and towels by the restaurant. Attentive and friendly staff who gonout of their way to make you happy.

Costa RicaIt was not entirely clear from the ad how steep the walk was to the room. It would be helpful to advise older customers or people with disabilities that there are no easy ways to the room other than climbing steep hills.
The staff was very helpful. We enjoyed the bar and the pool. The room had a nice balcony.

United KingdomThe hotel is a little bit 'tired' and could do with sprucing up, but this did not detract from our enjoyment of our stay.
An absolutely lovely place to stay. Great location in Quepos but tucked away from the town, beautiful room with a view of the mountains and our 'own' personal macaws, good breakfast, nice pool. All the staff were brilliant especially Dylan and Daniella.

United StatesRoom wasn’t the one displayed online. Very overpriced for what it is. Dirty, uncomfortable, broken and stained sofa, kept falling apart. Broken items in the room, lights not working, cockroaches in room and ants in the sugar. Outdated. Dark and dingy. Peeling paint. No door handle on front door and wouldn’t stay shut, had to find a big rock to use to keep shut. Broken door latch. Lost electricity. Limited breakfast choices. Mediocre breakfast, burger buns for toast. Check out was complicated, was being charged for drinks and food we already paid for. We didn’t want our friend sleeping on the terrible sofa that was falling apart so the only other option they would do was to get her own room for full price. No compensation for anything on their part. We wanted to leave but they said booking had the no cancelation policy. They still got all the money from us and more for an extra room. Needs serious updates and better management of the property. Before this during our trip, we stayed at amazing places that we loved for much cheaper than this place.
Integrated into the nature, pretty pool, animals around the property. Cocktails were good. Some of the staff were friendly.
