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.).

VietnamI would have loved to have had a small fridge and a kettle in the room, there are no TV's in the rooms and that was off-putting at first but I soon learned I could do without it. Sometimes the service was a little slow, but I guess that's just fiji time. The bed was a little hard for me, and only a few lights worked.
I loved this resort, it was beautiful and a fun place to stay, I was sad to leave. There was always something to do but also if you wanted to do nothing you could plop yourself in a hammock with a book and just let time drift by. I loved the outdoor showers, the pool is beautiful and the grounds and facilities are kept so nice. Things are planned well here, heaps of tours and activities to choose from, meals were really enjoyable and staff are great and very helpful. There is a bus stop just out the front and a lovely coffee shop where you can buy gifts on the grounds. Wifi in the common area helps people gather to socialise and it feels like a family after a while. Would 100% come back. Westside transfers who the resort recommends were also fabulous, I felt really safe in the hands of my driver.

AustraliaI think that the rooms should be cleaned daily at least. Especially during the wet season when people accidentally walk in things from outside. And guests should be given new towels daily. I stayed for 6 nights and by the end was annoyed at the mess of the room.
I loved the relaxed vibe of the place. Really gorgeous property. Very relaxing. The daily dinners at the restaurant was some of the best food I’ve eaten. Really amazing

New ZealandI was pretty happy with the place, I visited another resort and sure the place was fancy and bigger but, it wasn't as friendly and fun and it was over priced. My family and I missed the people at Beachhouse and seeing the other kids running around so we went back.
I stayed at Beachhouse with my son, brother, his partner and their three boys. We all loved it! What stood out most was the atmosphere and the fantastic staff. They were all lovely, easy going, and fun to be around with, but most of all Duxton. You were amazing with the kids and are a genuine fun person to be around. You taught me to be brave in the water and were great with the kids, and our family as a whole. I found it hard to say goodbye and my son says he will miss you too. I hope to visit again. Thank you to all the staff at Beachhouse and for all the wonderful memories.

Set in beautiful gardens and upon the beach, Beachhouse Resort was a lovely place to spend a couple of days relaxing and as a base for exploring. Amazing staff, great food and bar, a variety of people coming to stay, as well as plenty of opportunities for exploring Fiji’s coral coast.

AustraliaThe dinner both myself and my partner got was very average. I ordered steak rare and it came out extremely well done and barely able to cut it with a knife I exchanged it for a new one and it wasn't much better. My partner got the bolognaise which lacked any taste unfortunately.
Room was lovely and the outdoor shower was an added bonus. The hammocks were super comfy on the beach front. Nice bar and cheap cocktails.

CanadaThe actual staff working here seemed fairly apathetic. They weren't unfriendly but also not overly helpful or friendly. When asked several times about various activities or things to do, we were just told to "consult the board". When we landed on some activities we wanted to do, most of the events weren't even happening and we were told "not today, maybe tomorrow". It was incredibly wishy washy to get anyone to commit to any activity and we organized an island visit ourselves by recruiting 5 other people and telling the resort that 7 of us wanted to go to visit the island. The price also varied wildly for everyone on the trip. These should be posted on the activity board along with the itinerary. The food was also really disappointing and you are fairly locked in to eating at the resort as there are no other options nearby. It's not terrible, but not good by any stretch and could be improved significantly.
The resort was in an excellent spot for beautiful tropical beach access. The water was crystal clear, the beach was a long one for walking and the water was shallow a long way out so you could swim for hundreds of feet. A little raft in the ocean also made for a good lounging spot. The resort had access to kayaks and snorkels, which was awesome. The resort grounds also had lots and lots of hammocks, chairs, tables and other areas to hang out all day long. We really enjoyed that aspect and spent most of our time lounging on one spot or another. Meeting people here was also extremely easy with lots of solo and couple travelers open to chatting and having dinner together. The owner and a few of his pals (we're not sure whether they worked there or not) were also very friendly and welcoming. They had lots of good tips for things to do in Fiji and were happy to have a chat.
