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.).

CanadaStaff would give contradictory information. When we arrived no one explained what is available at the hotel, hours of restaurants, sites available, a la carte restauranrs, etc. the snack bar closes too early, food depletes early as well…
It was very clean, well kept. Great beach, great drinks.

United StatesImpossible to get a restaurant reservation unless you book a week ahead. Towels were constantly out. AC in the room was incredibly loud. They kept running out of cups for drinks and were serving in coffee cups. Buffet was good but took a long time to refill as things ran out.

United Statesone of the rooms assigned to us was already assigned to somebody else, we received a key that was able to open somebody else’s room. I didn’t like that there was nothing going on, no events like water exercise or teaching people how to dance, nothing at all, it was just everybody sitting by the pool with low music coming from afar.
I really enjoyed the food of the place, a lot of variety and good flavor.

CanadaThere are no ice machines in the guest room buildings. Our room was very far away from the lobby but that's where we had to get ice. The pool table, ping pong and fooseball are all great amenities - but all were in poor condition. The beach in front of the hotel is mediocre. We were there for 3 nights and upon checking in, could not get a reservation at any of the ala carte restaurants - that was a huge disappointment. The evening entertainment was also mediocre. The pool towel exchange was the worst. We were told it's only open for 3 hours in the morning and then again 3 hours in the afternoon. You simply couldn't get a pool towel between 11AM and 3PM - the hottest part of the day - where most people are at the pool. The food at the buffet restaurant was good and I found to be satisfactory. Quite a selection, and some items were of high quality - others were middle of the road.
We had a beautiful room (1221). The resort itself is lovely, as is the staff. The buffet restaurant is good - but I wouldn't say great.
