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 StatesIt says it is in Esposende but it is in Ofir a few kms away. No problem except when you are doing the Camino de Santiago and think you are close to the hotel but had to walk a little bit more
I like the hotel and the breakfast buffet

AustraliaEverything was great!
A wonderful oasis of comfort on our Camino! 😍 We were warmly welcomed by the receptionist on arrival. The location is perfect — so close to the sea, with amazing views from many rooms and the restaurant. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, with a super king-size bed. The hotel offers excellent facilities: a large outdoor swimming pool, direct beach access, a bowling alley, all set in beautiful grounds. There’s also a great pizzeria next door, and if breakfast is anything to go by, the food here is superb. We highly recommend this hotel — especially for Camino walkers who deserve a touch of comfort!

United KingdomStrange pillows - almost inflatable, they would slowly deflate when leant against. Bathrooms weren't super luxurious, felt a bit tired. But all clean and perfectly serviceable. No kettle in room. Evening meal options not very exciting and restaurants around the hotel are variable, some are pretty dire although seem nice from the outside.
Hotel setting was lovely, very green and natural, lots of seating areas with plenty of shade. Pool was pretty with (mostly) plenty of sun loungers with umbrellas. Don't think the hotel pictures do the pool justice. Direct access to the beach. Breakfast buffet was well stocked with lots of choice.

PortugalAlthough it’s been recently renovated, the exterior of the hotel looks a bit dated (not a fan of the colour used) which was disappointing at a first sight. One side of the hotel is older than the other and the rooms reflect this.
Great location, right next to the beach. Nice pools, playground for children and two tennis courts. Very friendly staff. Hugo from the front desk was an absolute star, he went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Good breakfast with a beautiful sea view. We went to Ofir to Kitesurf but unfortunately there was no wind during that weekend but we managed to do lots of other activities. The hotel can offer information about other sports/activities. They offered kids activities during the weekend. Free parking, a huge plus in the area!

AustraliaThe positives: people are nice and polite. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Breakfast is very good. The hotel surroundings are indeed very nice. Bathroom is very spacious but the bedroom is a bit narrow and overcrowded with furniture. Not much space to move freely. Wardrobes are huge. I would had prefer smaller wardroe and smaller bathroom with more room in the bedroom itself. Kitchen is listed in their website but there is none in the hotel rooms. (maybe the hotel have apartments with kitchen? I do not know). It is not in their website, but It would have been nice to have a kettle in the room with some coffee and tea to start the day.

IrelandLovely experience staying with my 11-year-old. We enjoyed the clean pool and the lounging area around it, the free tennis courts and rackets/balls, closeness to the beach, view of the sea from our room, breakfast and dinner overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in the hotel restaurant, helpful friendly staff, lovely massage in the spa. It's not a 5-star hotel, it's not brand-new, but it's been refurbished and is really nice and good value. Comfortable room and beds with fridge and safe in the room. The hotel is the heart of a quiet resort beside the sea with just the hotel, some surf schools, some restaurants - not too much else - which forced us to relax! Just 30 mins (about €65) north of Porto / Porto airport by taxi. Most guests seemed to be from Portugal / Spain.
