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.).

United KingdomKalufa House is the best place I could choose for exploring Lanzarote. The house is well equipped with everything we needed, clean and spacious, a lovely garden and swimming pool. Kalufa has a special energy and offers a very welcoming space thanks to the amazing hosts Laura and Roberto. The place was perfect for us because it’s out of the beaten path but at the same time very close to the beach, amenities and the beautiful Timanfaya national park.

United KingdomNot a negative, but as described in the listing having your own transport (car or bicycle) is probably a good idea.
We had a fabulous stay at Kalufa! We loved the house, but, even more than this, we found Laura and Roberto to be the most incredible hosts. They really made the stay special for us. We enjoyed the company of other guests and I think that it is the type of place that attracts relaxed and interesting people. If we were to return to Lanzarote, we would definitely want to stay here again. Thank you!

ItalyNothing relevant, just go with the flow of Lanzarote and reach out to the owners if you need any suggestion or help!
We booked the suite and I think it's a great option, you have a lot of space, a walk-in closet, a panoramic glass door looking at the pool and your "personal" outdoor chillout armchairs. The common kitchen has really everything you may need, and the overall decoration is really, really nice. It's easy to reach every part of the Lanzarote island by car from there, and there is a convenient private car parking. We booked a surf lesson at Famara beach through the owners and it was easy to organize and fun even for very beginners!

NetherlandsReally nothing. This place is really well designed, just go and experience it. You'll like it for sure. Make sure you have a car though, the island is much nicer to discover this way.
The whole vibe of this place is perfect. You feel like you're invited to a family vacation villa. The house is super nicely decorated, it's amazingly well done. The outside area around the pool is so nice that you feel like relaxing there all day. Inside, the kitchen gives a very homely feeling and guests often run into each other and have a talk. It will depend on the other guests how close you get, some people are into that, some people are not. But the house facilitates meeting each other. The rooms are also very stylish and clean.

United KingdomNothing at all, I enjoyed every second of it. If I was here with my family I would have felt very out of place, but that's absolutely fine - everyone was quiet and calm and adult, so this was perfect.
The house is stunning - remarkably clean and very quiet and tranquil. I highly recommend it. There are very nice cooking facilities, the pool area is incredible and I had the best room ! with a balcony overlooking the pool.

This place is ideal for couples who want to have intimacy with a nice comfortable room and bed, but also open to meet other travellers and make friends to go out for dinner, beach days etc. The house itself is like a villa with amazing pool and chill out areas, bbq, full kitchen, place to leave your surfboards, parking ... and just a few minutes from the best surfspots. Laura and Roberto are great, helpful and kind. Thanks Guys, arrivederci:) We felt like in a home with new friends

United KingdomMaybe a few more tea bags and coffee for guests.
Spotlessly clean house, beautifully decorated with a lovely garden and pool. Super comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen and plenty of space for all the guests. It's perfectly possible to get around by bus and it's quite safe to walk although there are no actual pavements on the road out of El Cuchillo. Tinajo nearby is a lovely little town with a couple of good bakeries with cafes which stay open late. There's a great bar which brews their own beer. It's a nice walk on a Sunday to Mancha Blanca where there's a little farmers market. Bike Stop cafe in La Santa is great too. Buses are cheap, reliable and even play 1980s music from the UK. Save money on hire cars and take the bus!
