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 KingdomBreakfast was a selection of fried Sri Lankan samosas and pastries, so a little stodgy/spicy to start the day!
Amazing location in between Dikwella and Hiriketiya beaches. The room was big, great water pressure in the shower. Host was lovely and helpful and it was generally good value for money.

NetherlandsWe had a great stay here. Sunil the owner was very helpful. They have scooters to rent as well. It’s located between Dikwella Beach and Hiriketiya Bay. So it’s an ideal spot to be. If you’ve got a scooter it makes it very easy to go from beach to beach. The breakfast is yummy and is always different. We would have loved to stay longer here. Make sure you book a room with A/C as it gets quite hot and sticky in Hiriketiya. They’re also building new rooms up top and a restaurant out back. It will only get better once the works have been completed. We’d highly recommend this place to our friends and family. We look forward to staying here again when we visit Sri Lanka.

Sri LankaThe hotel is currently under construction partially. The ground floor for guests is complete but the 2nd floor and parts of the backyard are still being worked on, resulting in a not very attractive appearance. I can imagine it becoming quite appealing once the construction is finished. The room itself wasn't bad, but the mosquito net had many holes, making me feel a bit insecure while sleeping.
The breakfast was fantastic, prepared in the authentic Sri Lankan style. Some dishes were not typical choices for tourists, so I truly appreciate the staff's effort to provide an authentic experience. The location is great, just a 10-minute walk to the beach and restaurant area, and close to Dickwella downtown. The staff also easily arranged scooters for us upon request.

GermanyWe loved the location of the property because it is between Dikwella beach and Hiriketiya Beach and this was great for us as we could stroll around to both beaches every day. Supermarket and good eating places were close. Besides that the room was perfect for us, pretty new facilities and great hospitality.

United KingdomWe had a large cool room. Bed was very comfortable, nice hot water, and helpfully a drying rack out the back of the room for drying clothes. The location is excellent. An easy stoll to Hiriketiya Beach, Dickwella Beach, and handy supermarkets whichever way you walk. The staff are excellent. Professional and a pleasure to interact with.

GermanyAmong all the 5 rooms, there is only 1 room that has AC. My room at that time does not have the AC, and I think it is a bit overly priced.
Excellent location for both beaches - Dickwella and Hiriketiya. Super clean and with new facilities. I love the most the backyard, which is tranquil and peaceful.
