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 KingdomAs I said the property itself was nice , clean etc . It was more the location that was far and no clean beach and no shade .
The property itself was really nice and it had everything. Be the location was very far from any shops etc . The beach was nice but a lot of sea grass and rough sea, there were a few beaches which were much better but you have to walk 25 minutes and when it is hot it was problematic . There was a nice large pool but there were no umbrellas so not shade at all .

United StatesParking can be hectic, but the dirt lot was close to our unit and has plenty of space. I could see that if you are mobility-challenged it could be difficult. Some of the units were being remodeled so there was on occasion a little construction noise but not a constant annoyance.
The units are perfectly located on the quiet end of Orient Beach, but everything is accessible by strolling down the beach. We had a great view of the ocean and were close to the pool and beach. Everything worked great for us.

CanadaNothing at all. Having a car would be nice, but not necessary if you like to walk.
Well equipped studio, pretty design inside, great view, well equipped kitchen with full complement of spices, a very pleasant stay. The owners were very organized and timely in their instructions to get there and receive keys. The location of Mt Vernon residences is overlooking the West end of Orient Bay. We walked to Orient Bay village every day, 1500m for Wingfoiling. Kitesurfers could launch from just in front of Mt Vernon residences if experienced. The Mt Vernon residence also has a pizzeria and a grocery shop for all basic foods and liquor. The unit faces South overlooking Orient Bay. A nice view for sunrise and evenings.

United StatesGetting from the top of Mount Vernon to the apartment wasn’t good. Very difficult getting luggage and groceries to the apartment. If you have any mobility issues or can’t carry stuff very far, should stay somewhere else.
The location and being on the lower level where we could leave through the balcony was great for walks. The beach is awesome. We walked it almost every day. Being at the end of the complex seemed more private and safe.

United StatesWalk from the parking lot is a bit long - but walkway is paved so you can roll luggage on it. The complex is on a hill and it is the price to pay for a great view. The water went out a few times, but an island issue. Apartment had spare water available for emergencies. I bought bottled water for drinking.
Apartment was great. I wanted a quiet vacation and this delivered. The apartment was spotless and well-decorated. I loved the balcony (with drying rack, table and chairs) and water view. You can hear the sea from the apartment- so relaxing. Two beach chairs and an umbrella are in the apartment. Pool is restored. There are chairs there as well.

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing!
The apartment has the most incredibly beautiful view of Orient Bay. The apartment is quite large for a studio and is very comfortable with everything you need. Also provided were chairs for the beach and a beach umbrella so you could walk down to the beach below and sunbathe there in privacy, as it is at the far end of Orient beach. The owners, brothers Thiboult and Amaury, were very helpful when we contacted them and we dined in their wonderful restaurant Bistro Caraibes, Grand Case, twice during our stay in St Martin which has fabulous food. The apartment is in a well looked after complex (Mont Vernon) - which has a little shop which was well stocked and a pizzeria which was excellent. I would suggest that anyone coming here book car hire as the complex is a distance away road wise from the rest of Orient Bay which has some lovely restaurants and a great little french cafe for breakfast. Car hire is reasonably inexpensive on St Martin.

Excellent place to stay: Location: close to most of the places on the island. Host: The best host I ever seen. Responded in a mins. Owner of convenience store very friendly Parking: parking is normal despite of many reviews; 5 min walk to property depends on where you stay Comfort: mattress is great, AC works good and quiet.

Lovely well-appointed studio overlooking the beach. Wonderful to sit on the balcony enjoying the view and listening to the waves. A 10-15 minute walk gets you down to the restaurants and beach clubs but here it is a quiet corner tucked into the end of Orient Beach- best of both worlds. Amaury, the owner, is very helpful and welcoming. Looking forward to returning.
