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.).

AustraliaAn authentic Sri Lankan-style option. Secluded. Shaded garden with Palmyra palms and ferns. Mongooses and squirrels. This choice may suit the younger traveller seeking a peaceful stay. Host Adhi and his wife are charming and considerate.

FranceMalabar Beach Walk is the perfect home from home to enjoy your holidays exploring Jaffna and the surrounding area. You will have the peace and tranquillity of a spacious private villa all to yourself, with beautiful palm tree lined garden, hammock, outdoor terrace area and only a 5 min walk to a shallow beach for a little swim or to watch the sunset. The villa is in a countryside location, so you can really get away from the world if you wish. However perhaps useful to have your own transport if you do wish to visit the surrounding area. The villa comes with a kitchen (including cookware, dining items, cutlery, a kettle, a paraffin stove, and fridge freezer if you want to cook and store provisions. The villa also has a western style toilet ensuite to the bedroom, a separate Asian style toilet, an indoor shower room, and also an outdoor shower. Delicious regional style meals can be provided by the kind a friendly family living in the property next door upon request. The very polite young man Bobbu that brings the food speaks very good English. The property has good wifi provided free of charge. The wonderfully kind and friendly owners Adhi and Karthiga are great hosts and remain available via WhatsApp to attend to your every need. They are delighted to drop by to the villa at the time you arrange to offer local advice and bring you things you may need. They also kindly offer to bring you some local delicacies to try if you want (toddy, ice apples etc). Adhi and Karthiga speak very good English and are truly wonderful people to meet. The main bedroom has a double bed and a single bed. Both beds have mosquito nets and two fans are provided. There seems to be an additional separate bedroom if you need it, however as we were only two people this wasn’t required for our stay. The villa is in the countryside, as such you may meet a few cute little frogs in the bathroom who are sheltering there from the heat of the day.

Great place to stay! This place is kind a farm house. Nice and silent place. Bathroom and kitchen attached with room. Nice kammock available between Palmyra trees. Beach is situated in walking distance. Noted there is no shops nearby the property and need to bring things with us. If we need food owner will arrange Jaffna style food. Very friendly owners 😊
