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 KingdomThe breakfast buffet food was great, but the layout could have been a bit better if I really wanted to be picky!
This was a beautiful oasis in the north of the island, perfectly located near Fiskardo, a lovely port to wander around. Swimming off the white rocks then having a drink overlooking the nearby islands was a great experience.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff, excellent location. We had the best time at Emelisse Nature Resort. On arrival, the staff were very friendly and showed us around. We stayed in an executive suite with a sea view which was perfect for us. The hotel has a fantastic swimming pool overlooking the sea, a bar and restaurant next to the pool which is excellent. We had dinner in the restaurant one evening which is well priced, the food delicious and the atmosphere was lovely. There is an hourly shuttle mini-bus going to and from Fiskardo which is a pretty seaside town with great nightlife. The breakfast is fantastic - there is something for everyone. We had the most amazing time and would be back in a heartbeat. Thank you!

United KingdomThe bed / pillows were a bit uncomfortable & the food at the restaurant wasn’t great for lunch or dinner. Breakfast was good though, with beautiful balcony views.
Our room was spacious & had a fabulous sea view! The pool area was amazing with incredible views out to sea. Lovely staff, easily accessible car park on site. Short walk down to “Emplisi” which is one of the nicest beaches in the area with crystal blue water.

United KingdomSmall Glass of wine was €12 at the pool bar which seemed really steep compared to other really nice restaurants in the harbour where a glass of house wine was €4 /€5. As a result we didn’t really order much by the pool and avoided the restaurant as didn’t want to be ripped off. Also Got a strange hard sell about going on a speedboat tour organised by the hotel for the extortionate sum of €200 pp, which felt a little bit like the hotel was trying to make squeeze us for money.
Excellent breakfast and perfect location a few minutes walk from beautiful fiskardo harbour , best part of the island. Lovely pools not overcrowded. Lovely room and comfortable beds, helpful and friendly staff

United KingdomThe housekeeping staff live in the centre of the resort and are often outside the rooms smoking and chatting and their laundry could be seen drying from our room. They could be provided with a space of their own.
The location, facilities and views are all exceptional. There is a quiet pool area if wanted and easy access to the sea for a swim in the clear blue waters. The staff are cheerful and professional. Food in the restaurant isxexcellent.

United KingdomThe only downside is that it’s about 1.5 hours drive from Kefalonia airport via lots of winding roads. But it’s definitely worth it!
The pool area is absolutely perfect - the pictures don’t even do it justice! And the staff were so friendly and helpful. It’s a five minute walk from a beautiful fishing town with lots of restaurants and you can hire boats there for the day.

We have just stayed 6 nights and we had a sensational time! The Emelisse Nature Resort is top class. The staff are all excellent and very helpful in any way you need. Especially booking drivers, restaurants and providing information about shuttle service and things to do in surrounding areas. The facilities from the spacious rooms to pool areas are exceptional! Also I had a 90 minute treatment at the Day Spa and it was the best I have ever had! And finally we went on a day speed boat tour and it was excellent, going to private islands and beaches only accessible by boat. Thank you all, we will be back Suzy and Tim

United KingdomSometimes the service by the pool can be a bit slow. The pizza evening was not very adult focussed - pizzas were awful with little taste and we were sat at tiny tables and chairs which were super low down. Would not recommend unless you have kids.

United KingdomApproximately 90 minutes transfer time for the airport but with plenty of great views along the way. Rooms are adequate but quite small.
Superb place for a family holiday. Excellent staff, very friendly and attentive. Rooms, although not spacious, were perfectly adequate, very clean and well serviced daily with clean towels and replacement toiletries. Very good breakfast area with excellent quality food to cater for all tastes. Beautiful sea views from the main pool area. Plenty of sun loungers to cater for busy periods and well appointed with no daily rush for the best spots. Less than 400 metres to a great beach, albeit very busy. Up there with the best sea swimming with easy access from the beach or directly from the Emelisse pool area. Fiskardo is a short distance from the resort with a free shuttle bus. Our family group with ages ranging from 7 to 62 preferred the 10 minute walk. Fiskardo is a bustling and beautiful authentic Greek harbour with interesting array of boats ranging from superyachts to small fishing boats, with a very good choice of places to eat (bookings required for the popular times).
