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.).

GermanyYou will not get good value for money at the Beach Restaurant or Beach Bars (I recommend the Restaurant and Pool Bar). The Sun chairs that range in price from 40-60€ are a joke.
The beach is very beautiful, the staff very helpful and welcoming. I can especially recommend the restaurant and Pool bar staff. The Breakfast is sufficient. The Mini-Market well stocked.

GreeceOverpriced for its services. Breakfast is awful, staff is non existent and indifferent. Only worth it to be right on the beach and take a swim whenever you want. Bad beds and mattresses, cheap linen and pillows. No room service. Leaking air conditioning machines.
Suites located right on the beach. The only ones worth booking.

United Kingdom-superior bungalow was similar to regular room that my friend got...unsure that's the value of paying any extra money. -50€ to use the hammock by the beach. should at least be included in a superior bungalow... -restaurant has new owners and the service was VERY slow. sometimes you order and by the time they got to cook your order the product was out of stock. by the end of the stay the self service was back and running again which was a relief
-very clean room. -front desk staff very nice. -able to rent scooter to see the island. -cool Pool bar (overpriced but as expected) -friendly and convenient supermarket with a wide range of opining hours

GreeceFrom the beginning everything was great! They picked us up from the port and also returng at the end of our holiday (free of charge). Everyone at the hotel was super nice and friendly made us feel so comfortable. Breakfast was simple but good! Pool side is fantastic, barwoman at the pool is really great with her cocktails ;) One more last thing there is a shuttle to Naoussa which was a perfect and nice service of them. I would totally recommend this place.

United StatesThe breakfast is ehhh. It’s definitely a budget accommodation (camp sites there, the camping toilets are basically holes in the ground).
The location is unbelievable. Beach is so amazing! Booking the executive package gets you access to beach chairs everyday. The shuttle that takes you into the city each evening and picks you up from the ferry is such a nice touch. The pool with swim up bar is also lovely. For the price, this place is a truly excellent value.

South AfricaThe location was quite far from the restaurants which made it difficult to go out to eat and come home on the bus. The local busses stop at 8pm and the free shuttle stopped at 22:00 so if we wanted to stay out later, we needed to order a taxi
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There is plenty to do at the resort and we loved the pool area. Super close to the beach as well. The resort also offered free shuttle services to the airport and also a free shuttle to town at 19:00 and back at 22:00.

United KingdomThe showering in the room is a dated over bath mixer tap and there is no fitting on the wall so you can't have a proper shower. What you have to do hold the head after soaping yourself and that is so old fashioned. The breakfast was very simple, nothing fresh apart from the yogurt, the coffee was awful and I think the orange juice was powdered, it tasted like Sunny Delight (revolting).
The accommodation was comfortable and kept very clean as were the grounds. All the staff were very kind and friendly.

BrazilYes, renting chairs or cabanas at the beach is expensive (30/50 euro) and maybe the the hotel should make it seems like its "part of the package" as the photos suggest, but in the end its your choice... you can enjoy the beach without it :)
Our 3-nights stay was better the expected. Contrary to mentioned in the last reviews, all the facilities were opened, the breakfast was fairly decent and everything went well. It is a great value for your money.

CanadaThere was no safe in the rooms. There is a mini fridge, but it won’t work unless you are in the room with the key, which defeats the purpose of having a fridge. Nothing stayed cold, our food went bad :(
Nice & quiet, the staff is very friendly and helpful. At night, the starry sky is incredible- head to the beach and be amazed. The breakfast included is nice- yogurt, cereal, coffee & tea, bread, boiled eggs, cheese and sweets. The water pressure in the shower was great! They change your towels and sheets daily. The daily shuttle to and from Nauossa is GREAT!
