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.).

IndiaFinding the place is a challenge - not enough sign boards given that the approach road is not very exciting. The restaurant menu needs to be enlarged extensively, as the number of people who would venture out for food given the location might be low.
Ambience of the resort by the river. Great service by the restaurant staff. Lovely pool, would've loved to have brought swimwear.

IndiaThere was a lizard in the room. The air conditioning was malfunctioning.
Loved the property. It is right next to the lagoon waters offering a picturesque view. I booked a pool view room which was quite spacious and comfortable. The infinity pool was clean and well maintained. There were a variety of indoor and outdoor games like archery, badminton, air hockey, pool, table tennis, foosball, Jenga, carrom, etc. that made it a fun stay. You could even cycle along the lagoon waters. The breakfast had a variety of South Indian, North Indian and English breakfast items. The staff was cooperative.

IndiaBreakfast needs improvement. Like the toaster was not working properly. Very few fruit options
Very good property at a good location. The rooms were excellent and very clean property. Lot of activities like speed boating , jet ski , table tennis table and lot of activities for children to keep you busy. The swimming pool was very clean and good size. Breakfast could be improved. One small thing I noticed which needs to be addressed. There was no shower curtain in the bathroom because of which the bathroom gets wet after the bath. Overall a great experience.

IndiaThe location of the hotel beside the lake was the best feature. The strong winds blowing throughout the thoroughfare beside the lake were enjoyable, especially in the early morning and early evening. The staff was very friendly and ensures that we had no problems with our accommodation.

IndiaThe last 1 km approach to the resort is a bit like off road and makes you wonder if you are on the right way. The staff informed us they are working on an alternate path to enter the property easily.
The resort location is perfect and very scenic. You can enjoy a calm and relaxed evening alongside backwaters with tea and snacks. They have many amenities to keep the kids entertained and provide boating options as well. The food was delicious although they didn't have much of South Indian options for lunch/dinner. The staffs were very courteous and super caring.
