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 KingdomSmart, comfortable apartment on first floor. Very clean and well appointed. Aircon was welcome. Second bed is off the sitting area with heavy curtains that you draw across for privacy. Nice pool, well maintained. Bit of construction going on in the vicinity but not a problem for us. Close to beach and you need to walk along the beach for the best swimming areas (not when tide high). Easy to jump in tuk tuks to get up and down the strip. Friendly management. We hope to return and would recommend.

KenyaThis was a special trip for me and it was even made better with an amazing apartment. I really like how they pay attention to the small detail. The communication leading to the stay was perfect and helpful. The cleaning and pool attendants were also kind and helpful. The property is also close proximity to the beach and the shops.

United StatesThere is nothing wrong with the property, I would stay there again. One thing to note, however, is that the property’s private beach access is just an access point — it is not access to a private lounging area on the beach, but rather you can lay on the beach on the pool towels provided by the property. If you want access to private lounge chairs on the beach, you will need to find a different place.
The property manager was very friendly, responsive, and always available to give advice or try to help set up activities. The place is very spacious, the beds very comfortable, and the water pressure great. It was also great to have a pool to hang out after a beach day. Overall, wonderful experience at an airbnb that is well-located. Only a 10 minute tuck-tuck ride to the airport.

LuxembourgNothing negative. Could perhaps recommend a few parasols for the sun beds as it gets warm in the sun
Very comfortable apartment unit located in a large villa with a total of four separate apartments. The villa is within a gated area and only a few minutes walk to the beach through another secured gate. Ali welcomed us warmly and explained everything we needed to know including about Diani beach sites. Ali had also arranged for a chef who prepared breakfast for us which we had on the terrace. Within walking distance to several restaurants including along the beach and a couple of supermarkets. Otherwise Ubers and Tuktuks available right outside the gate.

LithuaniaThe apartment is in a good location, near shopping centers, cafes, the main road, where you will quickly find a tuk-tuk. Located in a closed area, next to a closed street with security guards from the street and from the ocean. A few minutes to the ocean on a beautiful street. The employees are very nice, the apartments are well equipped, everything is thought out to the last detail, the area is small but tidy. Best wishes to host Ali. We were very pleased with his endless helpfulness and concern for us. We felt as if we had come to visit a good friend. All problems were solved very quickly. He works with a travel agency that is very high profile. In the evening, we wrote to the host where we wanted to travel the next day and the car was already waiting for us in the morning. Incredibly fast and smooth, at any time of the day. We have not received a single negative response. His advice was always valuable. We got everything we expected and more. If we ever come to Diani again, we will definitely choose to stay with Ali. I sincerely recommend it to everyone.

United KingdomThere was nothing not to like.
Fiorella Beach House exceeded my expectations. The apartment was spacious, clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and luxurious atmosphere (the king size bed was so comfortable). The kitchen etc was well equipped. The staff and owner were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Loved the private walk through on to the beach, all of 3 mins. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to stay for a memorable and enjoyable stay at Diani Beach.

United StatesThe house and grounds are beautifully kept. The house is just off the main beach road, but once you walk through the main gate, it is quiet and you don’t hear the road noise. Very peaceful. The apartment was exceptionally clean, bedroom and living area were large. Netflix available. Internet worked well. Pool was clean and very refreshing

The apartment was very clean, modern and spacious. It’s also a 5 minute walk from the beach. Everyone was so friendly and warm, I really felt at home and relaxed during my stay. It’s a quiet and peaceful area and the pool almost feels like it’s your own. We also wanted a massage, so they organised for someone to come to our room. It was one of the best massages I’ve had. I can’t recommend Fiorella enough. I would definitely stay here if I’m back in Diani.

Wow wow wow!! Fiorella was by far the best place we stayed at in Diani Beach. It ticks all the boxes in terms of what you’re looking for in a place: great location, very safe, open-plan set up, amazingly comfortable bed, super clean and modern finishes. We stayed here for 4 nights but we wish we’d stayed here longer. All-round amazing. Special shout out Ali, Hope and Eghwa for their hospitality and warm welcomes!

United KingdomWhy is Payment by bank transfer only? There was no option to pay using my credit card so I had to arrange a UK Bank transfer. Quality property, but still felt it was overpriced relative to alternative options we checked. We accidentally broke a glass tumbler and apologized for it. Accepting it was our responsibility to offer to pay for the damage, it felt petty to be charged $1.5 when paying $900 for our week's stay. I also feel the $4 Ukunda airport pickup should be included to reflect the quality of the property when staying for a few days at least. House rules limit the provision of toilet rolls to 2 per day (is it necessary to be so specific?), and why is no hair shampoo provided, and why a charge for using the washing machine? These Customer service matters don't match the quality of the property and leaves a poor perception of service. It's a lovely property but the little things can be big things.
Clean, spacious apartment, comfortable, 24 hr security, quality bed and furnishings, fitted kitchen, Netflix included, well maintained pool and small garden area. Appreciated being met on check in and check out by the property management team Ali & Hope.
