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 are 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 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.).

CanadaA bit fussy. For example, pool towels were more decorative than water absorbent; dining room pleasant but too formal for our tastes; dinner menu had no vegan options or even vegetarian. Simplify the experience.
Overall impression was one of casual comfort and sophistication. Staff were excellent - friendly and attentive.

BrazilFor those that cant live without a tv, this will not be a good experience... tv´s are not an option. The same goes for wi-fi. It was only available, at pitiful speed, in the reception area. Not an option if you have to keep up with work. The showerhead was the largest one I have ever seem and promised a great shower but when turned on, very little water came out. The solution was to use the douche. And, incomprehensibly, there was no soap dish. Shampoo and soap rested on the ground!
Very, very nice hotel! Excellent taste in the overall decoration, every little detail was well thought of. There are two restaurants, one for breakfast, with a nice predetermined menu with small changes every day, and also the a la carte option with additional cost. The dinner restaurant is in a beautifully decorated area and the food and the wines are excellent. Everything, even the wines, comes from the Masseria grounds. Service is exceptional, everywhere in the hotel. It seems like everyone at the hotel is prepared to make your stay into an unforgettable one! Even the two mean looking dogs are nice and ignore guests. The hotel offers some activities but you need to access the site to find out about them. Do it in advance and be prepared. On our last day we found out about the cooking class and, although it was a Sunday, Nicola was very nice to organize one for us. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it. And after learning how to, that will be your dinner!

AustraliaMy husband and I stayed here for a couple of days while we were travelling Italy. This Masseria was the highlight of our honeymoon! It was just perfect, the service, the people, the design of the rooms ect was outstanding. The food was grown & produced on the property. It was all organic & super delicious. The property is surrounded by beautiful fruit trees and nature. So much thought has been put in to it. The pool was a dream! Perfection. Thank you so much for making our stay amazing.

United KingdomMagical place, perfect for those that seek some peace in the beautiful Puglia. The amenities are luxurious and clean. I used the yoga shala in the morning as well for a sunrise practice. The natural swimming pool is unique and I particularly enjoyed the sound of the waterfall in the background. The entire staff was excellent as well. The location was perfect as it allowed us to visit the surrounding towns and beaches. Totally recommend.

SwitzerlandMore vegetarian options on the menu would be nice, as well as a regularly changing menu which would encourage guests to eat more often at the Masseria. Despite dinner being very good, the menu is very overpriced and should be tempered a little both for dinner and for the breakfast “extras”.
Stunning property with incredible swimming pool and wonderful, quiet, relaxing surroundings. Friendly and welcoming staff. Clean and comfortable room with well functioning air conditioning. Lovely welcome.

IrelandWe enjoyed everything
Breakfast was lovely - very authentic and the masseria offers really nice touches. For example we had their home made granola one morning with their own Kefir. The pool area is a gem - fabulous place to relax. The staff is so welcoming and they did everything to make our stay memorable. The on-site restaurant is worth visiting and we had a great meal there. The surrounding countryside is idyllic.

CyprusIt might seem as exaggeration but as much as you try there is nothing negative about this place…
Masseria San Paolo Grande is a place for those who seek the experience of South Italy compressed in one single place. Calmness and intense flavors are surrounded of olive trees in this 14th century walls which magically derive the character of all these centuries. Highest quality of service in all levels…Thank you Francesco, Sami and rest of the staff for the worth remembered hospitality! A blind folded recommendation!
