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.).

CanadaRoad in from Michamvi is in rough shape and lodge would be hard to find without a local driver like Mr.Price.
It was laid back, staff and food were amazing! The beach was only 2-5 minute walk away and was stunning. Very secure. Good value for the money.

For a single night spent at this property, i declare myself grateful for everything Milele lodge offered us. The staff are particularly kind, check-in was quick, the property has a well-maintained garden full of palm trees and is located near the beach. Dinner and breakfast served at the property's restaurant were delicious, and the avocado-lime fresh juice it was insanely good. Thanks guys!

NetherlandsSomething was wrong with their power generator so the electricity was very weak or dropped constantly. This made the music from the bar a pain to listen and also shut down the water pump. So when the power was down, we couldn't flush our toilets or have a shower. The power outages would sometimes last for hours.... According to the staff this problem had been going on for a while already so they definitely had a chance to fix it.
The place is a 2 minute walk from the beach. All the staff we met were just lovely. The main guy, Godlisten (yes, this is his name) went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant. Cheap drinks and excellent food for a lower than average price! Many people came here just to have dinner.

CroatiaMilele Lodge is located in a really small village and there are not many things to do around here, but it's amazing if you want to relax. They have a nice restaurant and a great place to hang out in the evening or during the day. The staff are really nice and they are cleaning your room (if you want that) every day. We had really nice stay here!

GermanyI must say I was a little bit fooled by the pictures and the rating of 8+. I should have thought twice about the price, but I just thought it was an amazing offer. The Lodge is more a hostel than a hotel, the outside space has some nice spots to relax, but chair and desk in our room appeared to be sized for children. The beach is a short walk away and quite dirty, but during low tide, it is possible to walk down the beach a bit and find a better spot. The staff was what disappointed me the most. I often felt, as if I was disturbing their peace and quite of watching movies on the phone, while their Englisch appeared insufficient at best. Still, they had to manage the reception, because the manager was not in and the owner seemed to live on the mainland. We left the lodge early after two of five night and did not do any excursions there, since we heared other guess talk about their disappointing snorceling trip organized by the Lodge. If somebody is traveling on a budget and is fine with a hostel, it might be alright, but don't Bee fooled by the 8+ Booking-rating

NorwayMost friendly staff ever! Great vibe in the evening with music and bonfire. A very chill place to hangout, everyone is so accommodating and helpful. We were allowed to move our booking without any problem and even got a better place to stay than we had ordinarily booked. Location is perfect as it is super quiet in the area and the beach has the softest sand you can imagine. There are some differences in the tide, but it is always deep enough to dip your body in and when the tide is low the water is so salty and fun to float in, a truly magical experience. The sunset from the beach is breathtaking and there is often entertainment further up on the beach. Michamvi and Milele Lodge is one of the calmest and most magical places I have visited, thanks to the amazing people there. A special shout-out to the waiter and waitress who were so nice all along. Asante sana!

The windmill is less than a meter above your head, you have to be careful when sitting on the bed. Dirty bathroom and the drain clogged. Old and torn towels. Breakfast very modest. Staff nice but does not know english. I do not understand the rating on the booking. I would definitely give 3. Price inadequate to the standard. I do not recommend and I will not go back there.
