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...).

AustraliaGreat cabins, with large beds a comfortably sized bathroom and shower. There was an A/C and no issues with insects in the room. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. Staff were super friendly and helpful (especially Laura and Ines!) and the included breakfast had several great options, also vegetarian that were not too heavy. No lagoon access, but we knew this already, and used a couple of day passes to other places during our 4 night stay, plus had a small pool to enjoy onsite when we were feeling lazy. Located lightly south of the main town area (30 minute walk, 5 minute taxi)

Very nice place with lovely people. We really liked to private little houses next to the swimming pool. Great location if you have a car. Would recommend to do a boat trip on the lake, eat at La Playita en visit Los Rapidos.

BelgiumThat we can not give more stars
If paradise exists, this place is definitely part of it! After a long day walking around Calakmul and then a long drive getting to Bacalar, we arrived at Zensus. Both exhausted we had the privilage to be welcomed by Ines. She gave us the warmest and sincerest welcome, explained us all about the town and gave the best recommendations. During our stay her and her staff were always there do give you the best holiday experience you ever had. Definitely recommend! It doesn't get better then this...

Lovely individual rooms around a pleasant pool surrounded by tall trees at the quiet end of Bacalar. Great reception staff who helped with laundry and organising trips, and the room was kept spotlessly clean with daily cleans. Good bed, and quality linen and towels.

MexicoUnfortunately, the rooms do not have a mini fridge and it felt like the hot water was solar powered because in the mornings it wouldn't warm up. The breakfast is from 8:30 to 10. For us that was a bit late specially when we had to.leave early for activities. While the hotels looks close to the lagoon and is physically not far all access across the street from the hotel is blocked by other hotels and you have to pay for a day pass on order to acces the lagoon near by. The day pass is 450mxn pesos. There are some club muuyal charges 200mxn and can be used towards consumption. It is 16 minute walk though. The free access is downtown 30.minutes walk downtown. They do not provide free bikes or rental of them.
The staff is so kind and helpful. The rooms and pool is always kept clean.

AustraliaVery well kept gardens and lovely set up of the cabins. The little room was small but super cozy and tidy. Very clean place and good lighting. The aircon was fantastic and the shower with the a little private garden view was a nice treat. The place is in a main road across the lagoon, very accessible and quiet. Walking distance to Maracuya a public lagoon access and a bit of a long walk to town like 20 minutes. The bed was comfy and because they’re little cabins you don’t hear the neighbours. Breakfast was included and it was delicious, they catered for vegan options with no issues. All the staff was amazing, so helpful and kind. We’re definitely coming back any time!
