Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaThe listing states "airport shuttle" which as a regular traveler, I interpreted as the shuttle service being included in the booking of the room but it was not ( It's an additional cost.)
The resort was nice overall and in a great location in front of the beach and close to a few restaurants and souvenir shops nearby. I wouldn't mind staying again now that I know what to expect.

CanadaFirstly, I have travelled to 43 countries and I work in the hotel industry and this was by far the worst experience! We tried to check in at check in time of 3pm for our 3 night reservation, the receptionist had no idea what was going on, and each room is owned by different people so we had to wait for the property owner to get back to us. We called the property owner who did pick up, and they assured us that the housekeeper is on their way and will be there in "a minute" to check us in and show us our room. We wait for 2 hours before the housekeeper came, and the room still wasn't ready. Housekeeper only just started to clean the room when we met her at 5pm. Shortly afterwards, the housekeeper hands me her phone to speak with the owner and she asked me to LIE and tell the owner that we were happily checked in (which we were not), we were still waiting for our room to be cleaned.. When the housekeeper finally came to show us the room, she still had to finish cleaning the bathroom while we were unpacking and didn't have any privacy and it was 7:30pm. We missed our dinner reservations, our "view" was the parking lot and dumpsters so we didn't use the balcony. Mirror was broken on the closet doors, one light wasn't working in the bathroom. We asked for a quiet room, the room was close to the pool where they had a DJ playing loud music into the night. Then there were BUGS crawling on the floors and on the dining table!!! I messaged the owner the first night that we were going to leave a day earlier because of the bugs, he refused to refund us the last night even though we didn't stay the last night and the room literally had bugs. The housekeeper our second day was interrogating us about leaving early and made us feel super uncomfortable. Absolute disgrace for the hotel and travel industry. DO NOT STAY HERE.

United States of AmericaNo complaints!
Hotel right on beach, easy access, loved the shower they have after ur swim & it’s free to get in. Location is right in the middle of almost everything shops, restaurants & activities. The restaurant inside the hotel is very convenient for breakfast! They also have a small kitchen by the bar. The cook makes TASTEY food :) & the bar area is awesome. They had a DJ on the wknds who played great music, nothing but good vibes. Our host Paulette was so kind and helpful, she cleaned our room every day. The hotel is gated so we felt at peace knowing our rental was safe at night :) I would recommend this hotel clean & affordable. Definitely staying here again!

United States of AmericaOnly place I will stay in Ochi. I usually travel solo, and as a young female I have always felt safe and secure here. I have stayed at Sandcastles several times and it is the best!!! On the beach, centrally located, great price, and the rooms have all the comforts of home! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful from the front desk to the bartender at the pool bar. Pauline was exceptionally great, my flight was delayed and she waited hours for me to get there to check in, and was so accommodating. ❤🇯🇲 Sandcastles mi soon come!!
