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 KingdomReally nothing. There is a steep walk between the pool and the cottage we were staying in, but the higher up the hillside you are, the better the views! And the pool is so beautiful, it’s a must to enjoy it.
Everything! The location, the pool, the apartment and the hosts.

United KingdomYou have to be well prepared, no breakfast facilities and the property is 1k away from the nearest supermarket up a very steep hill. We did not mind but it would not suit everyone. The host offers a complimentary lift service at set times during the day which is excellent. The wonderful stay is worth the strenuous exercise!
The cottages have been very tastefully designed & our spacious. They are situated in the middle of a tranquil wood/olive grove on the side of the hill 1k from town. We had a large balcony overlooking a lovely warm pool with a panoramic view over Skiathos town. We were blown away by the setting & overall experience. We watched the sunrise, boats & planes take off & land in the distance

United KingdomThete was bot anything I did not like. It was a fab stY all round.
I felt the location was great, however it is a little out of the way and is surrounded by rolling hills. However the great thing about these cottages. The owners are very conscientious regarding that it is a little remote, they iver private shuttles back and forth to tne Town and they are willing to help when and whete they can. This is within the price of stay

United KingdomOur only slight downside was the steepness of the hills to the property from the town. It is walkable but quite an effort due to the incline. The hosts offer complimentary lifts in the morning and evening for dinner. This is the compensation for an amazing view!
Beautiful view of the Aegean from the bedroom and patio. The apartment was comfortable and true to the pictures. The location is quiet and tranquil. The apartment itself is secluded and private. The hosts Apostolos and Litsa were friendly, welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. They puck you up and drop you at the port or airport which makes for a seamless yransfer. There is an honesty bar at the infinity pool which is fabulous. The pool itself is clean, quiet and has great views over Skiathos Town and the sea. Thank you Litsa and Apostolos for making our stay as easy as possible!

United KingdomWe would have preferred a 2nd bedroom for my 2 daughters.
The cottage was really lovely. The views were just stunning, the pool was great & although the location was up a very long steep hill, it was never too much trouble for our host to give us lifts to & from town. We would definitely like to visit again. 😊

United KingdomWe liked everything! But the hillside is steep, even walking between cottages and pool, so would not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
Cottages high on a hillside with spectacular panoramic views over Skiathos town towards the sea. Our cottage was very spacious and comfortable with everything you need and a lovely balcony for sitting outside. Cleaned daily to a high standard. Regular lifts provided by owner to town and airport. Lovely infinity pool with comfortable sunbeds. Would highly recommend!

Amazing views, quiet, very clean and often had the pool all to ourselves. Great apartments with large balcony and fully self contained kitchen. Appo and Litsa were very friendly and hospitable, we would definitely recommend the Garden cottages to our friends and family!

United KingdomThere is nothing I didn't like. There are a couple of suggestions as in to have some cleaning items in the cottages as in brush and mop. The cottages are cleaned on a daily basis but as a family we do also like to keep where we stay, tidy. Oh and sorry I did think the mattress was a bit harder than I would normally have. But it wasn't to bad. I would suggest that you hire a vehicle (we hired a quad) as its very steep going up to the cottages but the positive is that the owners do transfers to the town etc also will go straight to your cottage.
The infinity pool with the most stunning view The privacy of the cottages How helpful the owners where The layout of Rose Cottage Cleanliness of the cottages and pool Air con which also had heating (temperatures declined for a few days)

United KingdomI think for some the cottages may be located on a bit of a steep slope and the walk into town is hilly on the way back. We didn't mind it at all and appreciated being in such a secluded spot, yet so close to the Skiathos town.
Beautiful place, lovely cottages, everything you could wish for in terms of equipment, comfy bed. Cottage was cleaned every day, the pool area was immaculate and nicest we have come across. Stunning views, and the hosts met us and took us back to the airport at the beginning and end of our stay. They also provide lifts several times of the day and evening for those wanting to go in to the port - although it was only a 15 minute walk anyway. Couldn't have been more helpful.
