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 KingdomIt was all excellent, no complaints
The villa is gorgeous, perfect for a family like us. Set on a hill with stunning walks straight from the front door. Beds are super comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. You feel very safe as the property is gated. Minas the owner could not have been more helpful. We arrived at 1am and he was there waiting for us. He was always available on the phone for any questions. Minas really did go above and beyond for us.

United KingdomCan not come up with any!
Wow! What a fantastic experience we had during our 1 week stay in this beautiful home! We've been greeted(and given a full tour of the house) on our arrival by most friendly and helpful Host we've ever met. It felt very homely immedietely! The fact the house was very well equipped and stocked witrh many necessities - nearly all the toiletries and foods(succh as salt, pepper, many other dry herbs and spices, water, juice, yogurt and so on) - was one off, for sure! Some of it lasted us for nearly all our time there:-) Very generous indeed! hat was totally unexpected, therefore came as a cherry on top! Three of us( a couple and our adult son) had plenty of space in and outside of this wonderful place; two of us were working some hours online every day - WiFi is strong and consistent and office upstairs served us splendidly too:-) We did some cooking and found the kitchen fit for purpouse well. However, we did enjoy very much our walks(Yes walks) to Cato Archanes nearest village through the forest to the local tavern(25-30 minus on foot), which was fun! The food there is fantastic and very cheap! It also a family run place and very traditional, so it is a must to visit! There are a few short/medium and longer walks you can do immedietely from the property, - just ask Minas, - he is very friendly and ego to help! The sleep quality is always a tricky one if you are away... Well, this place ticked this box for us too! We slept verty well indeed! Do not be put off by the proximity of a road(which is not even busy during a day time) - we had no noise comming from it overnight at all... I can write more and more about the good things in Minas' s wonderful place but the bottom line is you have tio come here and try it for yourself! It is well worth it! If we had a question - our Host was quick to reply and, on a few occasions he even came over to help and sorted it out:-) Thank you very much for making our stay one of the most memorable we ever had!

United StatesThe Villa Fyllosia is in a peaceful location atop a ridge with wonderful views. The house is very large and stays true to the pictures and descriptions. Our host Minas was the best we had during our trip around Crete- very kind and helpful. The trip was to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and he provided some nice surprises to celebrate! Wonderful. We hope to return someday, and give this place our highest recommendation.

Starting with the owner, I can only say a wonderful family. After a long journey we had to the house, we found almost everything for the first days. This was more than a welcome package for us. The house is fully equipped. In the kitchen you will find everything you need to feel comfortable to cook. The villa has an extra grill house which we did not use as we were only there for a few days (we will definitely use it next time to have a grilling contest with the owner ;-) ) In this villa there are many balconies to relax and watch the sea, Herakleon and the surroundings. Behind the house there is a large garden. We could use many herbs, vegetables and fruits when they were ripe. We would like to thank Minas and his wife for our wonderful stay and will definitely return to their villa and meet them again.

The house is excellent, 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 spacious bathrooms, large garden with vegetable garden that you can use yourself and the house has 6 different terraces outside. Also the owner is very friendly.
