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.).

SwedenIt is quite pricey and you can hear noise from the outside at night.
Location is brilliant. We are usually not into resorts but this one didn't feel like the classic resort type. Choice of restaurants near by is great. Bus into town available infront of the hotel but the hotel offers shuttle services too. Rooms were super nice and clean

United StatesGreat location and beautiful grounds. It was nice to have so many options for restaurants to walk to at night. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The beach area and views are beautiful. The only negatives was the king oceanfront was a little small. The pillows could use an upgrade and were not very comfortable. The seating in the room was also not very comfortable. We were short on things like kleenex, toilet paper, and a bath mat at times. Hot bathroom because there is not an exhaust fan but a window vent. We wanted to get a bigger room but they booked up many months in advance. They do have free surf safe lotion on the beach, ability to fill your water bottle every day at the towel station. Wait staff are available for drinks and snacks on the beach. There is a very pleasant and calm area for snorkeling. Even with some of the dislikes in our room, we were very happy that we stayed at Lions Dive. We loved to beauty of the beaches in Curaçao. The town of Williamstad is lovely and very close by to visit.

CuraçaoServer on the beach who was very rude. When I went to get some food he had pushed my beach chair with all my belongings from under a palapa claiming that that was their station even though there was no sign saying that and two of his colleaugues had seen me sit there for 30 minutes already and hadn't said anything. After being rude he turned back to his two colleauges to continue chit chatting while I was left with my hands full with food and my belongings to figure out where else I could find a spot in the shade to sit (the beach was packed). I ended up having to go to my room to eat as there were no more spots to sit comfortably.
Lionsdive is a beautiful resort and is very well situated on the island. Lots to do in the surroundings. My first encounter with Hemingway was at first a unpleasant one. I had a bad experience with a server on the beach (very rude Dutch young man who recently started working there) on Sat. Feb. 15, 2025 which left my quite upset. I have worked for years in the Hospitality Industry in different roles and would never have even thought of treating a guest as badly as this young man treated me. I gave a complaint at the Frontdesk with Sergio who handled it like a charm as he listened to me and connected me immediately with Michenoe (the Restaurant Supervisor on Duty). Michenoe was absolutely wonderful and handled the situation perfectly. In the evening I had dinner here and Didi, my server, was very attentive, she did a great job at providing me with a wonderful experience. Because of the bad experience I had, Michenoe made sure to comp my partner and I 's breakfast on Sun Feb. 16, 2025 where Nina and the rest of the breakfast service team took amazing care of myself and my partner. Thank you Sergio, Michenoe, Didi, Nina & the breakfast service team for turning my bad experience around to a positive one. I will be back for sure. Ms. Chirino.

Sweden- Everything spotless apart from armchairs that were ready for a deep clean. - Nemo, the asian restaurant, failed to impress sadly. - Club night (1 out of the 4 nights we stayed) at Seascape, is pretty loud, even though it's several properties away from Lions.
Room was spacious and well equipped. Great bathrooms with plenty of hot water. Comfortable beds. Quiet room on the whole. Got a suite with stunning ocean view. Lots of space outside. Good ac in all rooms. Breakfast was great with lots of choices. Lovely to have it outside by the sea. Restaurants are moderately priced and serves the usual mix of international dishes with some local additions. Pizza place was the best imo but wasn't open all nights. Hemingway had the best service and location. Good fish and veggie food. Beach is perfect for families. Shallow. Clean. Clear water. The small beach has some snorkling opportunities but boats pass close by. Beach wasn't crowded, service was good and some beach chairs are reserved for hotel guests. All in all, a perfect stay with lovely touches from the staff such as dressing the room on account of honeymoon that we hadn't announced prior to arrival. Very grateful!

IrelandSome of the seasonal staff spend more time chatting amongst themselves than being attentive to bringing you a drink.
Really great place. Has everything you need to not leave the resort but if you wish it's only 5km from Willemstad. Plenty of choice for food and drinks any time.
