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.).

KenyaThe property has its own charm as it matures, perhaps needing a touch of updating along the way. It carries a cozy, rustic feel, but in a way that adds character rather than detracting from the overall experience. So, while it may show its age slightly, it certainly doesn't hold back on providing a delightful experience for all who visit.
The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, always available to lend a helping hand whenever needed. And let's not forget about the incredible cook who treated us to delicious local cuisine, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to our experience. While the proximity to the beach was a definite highlight, I couldn't help but wish for an ocean view from the balcony. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed my time here.

United StatesNothing that had anything to do with the Beachalets.
The location is stunning! Waking up to a view of the Indian Ocean was incredible. The grounds are nice, if you're lucky you can observe Colobus monkeys in the trees, the owners and staff were so helpful and nice! This was so much better than staying at a high-priced resort.

KenyaSome of the bed sheets looked old and worn out and had some spots. Luckily we could leave that room as the spare room.
It's worth the money you spent. Provides basic accommodation but the best ocean view and easy access to the beach. We felt safe taking a walk at night.

SwedenMaybe the opening hours of the reception, while the guards were always present many of them spoke limited English and so at times we couldn’t communicate with them properly. Also, while this is to be expected, there were quite a lot of ants so maybe a more permanent solution to them than spray could be useful.
The location was very nice with the beach almost in our backyard and the houses surrounded by trees. The houses themselves were also a positive surprise as we expected very basic cottages but got proper well furnished houses. Also, as guests from Europe we found the monkeys that basically lived around us absolutely adorable, even though one baboon stole our grapes.

ChileThis a hard one, because it was beyond my expectations. A bit far, but after getting the handle of how to get to places was very fine.
It was self-catered, but restaurants are very close, just a walk down the beach. Fantastic beach, well taken cared of property with excellent security, very safe. I liked the quiet nights, far from clubs, but you could get to them if you wanted. The sea is warm and you can swim, plus go snorkeling for a few hours on a boat.

United KingdomNothing that stands out to me at all with the BeachChalets, but the beach sellers were very full on this time around. I have been to Diani several times and this was late in the season (but very hot still) and they were everywhere even after you have bought things from them. Don't let this put you off though as you just need to be polite but firm with them.
Not sure where to start... Diani BeachChalets exceeded every expectation I could have had. It is more beautiful than the photo's can show. We had the sea view chalet which over looked the garden and then the beach and sea. Being able to wake in the morning walk onto the patio and see the sunrise over the indian ocean is a view you would never bore of. The Chalet is basic but well equipped. I have travelled lots with work all over the world and I like basic and raw and this place hit the spot.
