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.).

Everything was absolutely lovely! The location of boca Simón is perfect wrt. to many aspects: you can reach everywhere on the island very easily as the next Bus stop is only 2 min away (at the church), there is a supermarket close by, it’s calm at Night and there is even a small snorkeling Spot at the beach 200m away. There is also a nice pool which you can use if you want to have a quiet day. The biggest plus of boca Simón is Magdy, the owner. He will help you with everything you Need and more. He is not only a great host but an awesome human and friend that will make your stay in Curacao special. I can 100% recommend Boca Simón to fellow travellers.

Trinidad and TobagoI dont like that they didnt change the bed sheets at least every other day. My sheets got soiled accidentally which was a 25 USD charge but they didnt bother to change it for the duration of our stay.
I really loved the location. If you dont plan to rent a car and you are relying on public transportation, this location is perfect. The supermarket is walking distance and you can take the bus to take you to mambo beach or the sea aquarium or into the city. The place looks just like the pictures. The room was a lot smaller than I anticipated but that didnt bother me. It was functional. Everything was clean and tidy. I enjoyed the pool. It was a really decent size and I enjoyed relaxing there on the days I didnt plan to go out. Magda and the other members of staff were very courteous and welcoming. Even showed me how to get food delivered. I would definitely stay here again if im ever visiting Curacao.

Owner was the kindest soul accommodating to all my needs as a concerned parent whose teenage sons were working on the island and came for a visit. They were free to visit me and use the facilities.

ItalyI was here in June 2023. I travel a lot for my job and I am quite selective. What I look for is the "soul" of a place, its identity, its unique character. I would not change Boca Simon for anything else in Curacao. Why? For here you feel at home. Besides, clean, equipped, spacious , excellent position, choice between private kitchen or fantastic common one

CanadaUnfortunately, our original flight got canceled so we arrived one day later and still had to pay for a 5 day stay even though we were there for only 4 days! We felt cheated! Also website claims there was a washer & dryer facility but was verbally told there was none for the guests
Clean room. Appreciated the kitchen area in our space and the balcony outdoor eating area.

United StatesUnfortunately, our stay at Boca Simon was not pleasant. Firstly, we received a room that looked very different from the image. The image had two windows, lots of light and an extra sofa. Out room was way smaller, with one small window, plus the bathroom had dangerously hanging ceiling corners that aimed to hurt our heads. Such ceilings would fit very short people. Also there were no soap. My friend's bed sheets smelled with sweat, and it seemed like they weren't changed. She had to go and ask in the office. The pillows were super bad. No soundproofing at all. We heard conversations and also felt the smoke coming from people below smoking. The location isn't the best, but it doesn't hurt if one has a car. Even if the place offers cheaper stay, we only ask for accurate images on Booking and fresh sheets. It isn't much to ask for.

United Kingdom-We arranged a pick up from the airport with the hotel. The driver they sent was very friendly but did leave us feeling very unsettled when he advised us to be careful of an area next to the hotel where "people hide behind bins and bushes and will jump out on you with a knife or gun to mug you." It left us wondering what we had arrived to? We felt on edge walking past there to the main area the following day but all was fine. We walked that road numerous times- day and night and just kept our wits about us- again, all was ok. We appreciate him looking out for us but it was very daunting hearing that and was not the start to our holiday we had anticipated. -Under the bed was very dusty. -There was no hot water.
-Room was comfortable. -Although we never used it, the pool area being available was a nice touch. Same for the kitchen area.
