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.).

NetherlandsThe amenities may be a bit more practical and comfortable. We were with 2 persons and had only 1 chair in the room, 1 plate. I had to ask for a blanket. No closet for clothes. Clothes hanging on a rack under the airconditioning makes the room look not very neat and organized.
The surroundings are really beautiful. The landscape is amazing with beautiful palmtrees and other tropical plants. The pool looked just perfect. I liked the friendlyness of the owners, hardworking down to earth people. Very kind and helpful. I also liked the security of the doors and windows. I felt safe.

United StatesThe room had a slight smoke scent - most rooms are non-smoking, ours may not have been. Check when reserving your room. Parking is usually available on site, we had one night where we had to wait for a spot.
The room was quite large with a balcony, the bathroom was modern and clean and spacious (although the lack of a door between toilet and the room was interesting). Snorkel gear rental from the hotel was convenient along with washing and drying stations. The pool courtyard was a nice space for relaxing. Location is an easy walk to restaurants. Staff was friendly and helpful.

United StatesBeet and Corin were exceptional owners and hosts. Great breakfasts to start the day. Beet cooks wonderful dinners as well. Nice little walk to the docks and shops. Really need to drive to get to the national parks and beaches. Snorkeling ok but better reefs on other islands. Great stay here. Quiet, peaceful, wonderful.

BelgiumMosquitos. Hovering around our patio. We were not able to sit right outside our room. Nothing to do with the hotel of course because it was our choice not to spray ourselves with these aggressive products.
Adults only hotel. This suited us perfectly. Nice pool. Nice staff. Owners were fantastic.

United StatesA little noisy some evenings due to street traffic but not horrible. Would have preferred a patio facing room.
The property was secure with code access only. The pool and restaurant areas were shady places to spend afternoon down times. Outside facilities for scuba and snorkeling equipment were well organized and clean. Patio room facing the pool would have been a nice. Easy walking to beaches, restaurants, town and snorkeling sites.

NetherlandsAs the room had no cutlery whatsoever, the occasional takeaway food is a bit difficult to eat. The prices of renting scuba gear and tanks are a bit higher than the other providers on the island. Having said that: you get the comfort of renting at your accomodation with that, so the choice is yours. Apart from that: nothing to complain.
Beat and Corinne are very friendly, very helpful and always open to questions. The rooms have a lot of space and a huge balcony. The accommodation is situated just south of the main tourist area, but the walk there is short. The rooms are cleaned every 2 days (mostly in the afternoon), which should be more than enough for the average guest. That's a big plus compared to most hotels where sleeping in is impossible. Adults only, so the pool is a calm area. Scuba gear and tanks available onsite, which makes it easy to explore the island waters bij yourself.

NetherlandsIf there was something, we just reported it/asked it and it was taken care off. So no complaints.
A nice small hotel with personal attention to make your trip/holiday perfect. Willing to help you with everything, so you don't need to think about it. A nice room with enough space for you luggage and a very nice bed to have a good sleep. Just a 5-10min walk to kralendijk centre, where you can find all the shops and restaurants. Not only for guests, some evenings they are serving a dinner. The menu is announced upfront and a reservation is highly recommended, since it is winning popularity. The owner is cooking/preparing everything fresh in the afternoon, so it can be served in the evening.
