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.).

PortugalWe were unlucky with our bungalow. It was very old and uncomfortable. They are renovating the resort but some bungalows are still very old. It was a little bit expensive for the room that we got.
The staff is very nice and helpful. The restaurant is very good and the breakfast too. Everything was clean. Beautiful island with a very nice, quiet beach and outstanding views.

United KingdomMost staff were amazing, but the lady that checked us in was a bit useless. We gave her our check-out/ onward boat details but on day of departure, noone knew a thing etc... Location is great for total isolation (when the tide is fully in, tgere is no beach - you can chose to get wet (to your waist) and wade down to the beach area, oe just chill at the resort, or go kayaking... but some of the resorts further down don't get cut off at high tide in the same way. (Ans these resorts are set up, so that you cannot walk from one to the next easily) Food options were a little inconsistent. Some great meals, and some mediocre ones.
Beautiful location, lovely room overlooking the sea. Staff were friendly, and helpful. Should out to M who was amazing!! Ans the lady running the restaurant, she was awesome too. Nice extras, like massage on site, Kayaks free to use. Resort didn't feel too big or busy, which helped give a nice relaxed feel.

United KingdomSun loungers as well as deckchairs would be good. There are only nine beach front villas so it's hard to get one but we liked the view from our upstairs room
The people are the best and treat guests like family. The accommodation is basic, dated, but comfortable, and the aircon worked well. The situation and the view are the best

We enjoyed the semi jungle setting of the bungalows and the environmentally friendly theme. The resort has got a very relaxed feel. We enjoyed the breakfast selection with lots of fresh fruit, Thai food and options for cooked eggs. All supplies arrive by boat and we were amazed by the selection of foods for lunch and dinner.

Poland- Poor value for money as with this price we would demand more amenities, eg. pool and overall better ambiance - Room full of mosquitos at night due to leaky windows - Lack of proper beach within the resort - Overpriced restaurant, given other food options on the island - Some breakfast options were missing if you come late (9 am in our case)
+ Seafront house are wonderful, spacious and include very nice terrace, sound of sea heard even at night :) + many sunbeds, swings, etc. by the sea where you can enjoy the island + Great location of the restaurant just by the sea + Very helpful and kind staff, including medical services which were unfortunately needed

NetherlandsThe resort is a bit outdated. The beach right in front of the resort is too shallow to swim during low tide, so you have to walk quite some distance for a dive in the water. When we were here it was low season, when there is no island hopping boat, most surrounding places are closed and when also at this resort various things were not available and they are gradually renovating the place, which did not add to the atmosphere.
This resort is nice and spacious place directly at the beach. The snorkeling in front of the resort is ok (they do damage with the boats and fishing unfortunately) and the cabins do blend in ok with the surrounding jungle. The rooms are as presented, with a good bed and well functioning airconditioning, unfortunately we had a cockroach in our room when we arrived, other than that the room was clean. The staff is friendly and some speak some English. Koh Ngai has an amazing view on the Andaman sea with various rock formations in sight from the resort.

SwedenLong swim for snorkeling. The beach around has some jellyfish purple, but i don't thing they are harmful.
The room was really nice ! Large bathroom and cozy. The bed had a mosquito net which is really enjoyable. In front of the beach , we could enjoy an amazing view with some trees. You have to swim a bit far for the snorkeling for a fee if you wanna equipment provided by the hotel. The restaurant was good and affordable considering the prices that you may see in other areas around or Phuket. The restaurant's staff was really nice ! The hotel is located on a beach were other restaurants are reachable by walk, so this is a great positive point if you wanna eat somewhere else. The place is charming and quiet in the evening. In overall, in an island like Koh Ngai, i may come back to such hotel.

United KingdomThere was a long delay on processing our check in which was very tedious after 5 hours on four ferries. We were so tired and relieved that at least there was a room for us that we just accepted it. However, when I rechecked by booking they had placed us in a lower grade of accommodation. They agreed to move us that night, but we were too tired. They would not refund the difference, but proposed a reduction in our food bill of the price difference for the first night. Which just about acceptable, but no other compensation offered for their mistake and our inconvenience. Come check out I could not believe that they had not deducted the amount promised. It was very unprofessional that I had to point out that we were allocated a lower grade room, and I had to point out that the agreed bill reduction had not been made.
Very friendly staff, excellent evening meals, idyllic location
