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.).

Australia2 things I found negative were the size of the TV in our unit was ridiculously small 🥺 I think it was like 32” it was very hard to really see much on a small screen, we did notice that the villa next door had a large TV screen & the air-con in the second bedroom didn’t work very well & it was noisy plus it didn’t help that all the fans also were on one speed - slow, I did mention this to the caretakers that were there everyday but nothing changed up to the day we left. I was also very disappointed that we never got any fresh beddings, I did ask if we can get clean sheets/pillow cases & I was told by the man looking after the place that we had to wash our own bedding if we wanted fresh linen, that is not acceptable ….for the amount of money we spent you would think fresh linen would have been dropped off considering how hot TI is, you wake up hot & sweaty…for the 2wks my daughter did not get good nights sleep in the second bedroom that had the non-working aircon…not good or comfortable 🥺
No breakfast, location was good short walk to the Main Street/shops/beach, bed/pillow was super comfortable…I loved the separate shower/toilet. The kitchen had most of the usual utensils to cook & dine…I really loved the set up of the villas

AustraliaMain television was too small and could have used a t.v in the main bedroom.
Property was clean, all ammenities that were listed were there. It was perfect for our family of four. Shops were within walking distance and the view of the ocean was beautiful.

AustraliaTariff is steep for what you get, expected a far nicer outlook. View is ordinary to say the least. I know the owners have no control over the adjacent property. However be prepared to walk on to your balcony from Villa 1to the sight of a derelict house. The "water view" is a wonderful elevated view of Villa 2s balcony with water glimpses. gardens appear unkept. 9:00am check out is a bit rough in my opinion. We had a fantastic time on T.I. The locals are laid back nice people. This accommodation in itself is very good but just don't expect panoramic water views from Villa 1 at least.
Location was good. Decor and furnishings comfortable and attractive. Cleaning staff were lovely people.

AustraliaThe walk up the hill is a little steep, especially if carry heavy bags & of course this is extra difficult due to the humidity, but this isn't the Villas fault. Tastefully decorated in easy Island style.
Great elevated location with a view - very comfortable accommodation with everything I could need. Great airconditioning & the deck was an unexpected surprise. Bedrooms and 2 bathrooms were fabulous.
