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.).

GermanyCheck-in was bumpy. Required per-checkin online and wanted a passport scan from the entire family. Never experienced this anywhwhere else. Required a deposit at check-in but now wouldn't accept a german credit card and then asked for 500 USD in cash. This was simply not an accpetable approach. Master bathroom did not have a working shower and could not be fixed.
Wonderfull beach location with spacious house and fully equipped kitchen. Great beach in walking distance.

Czech RepublicWe were very satisfied with everything. The vila was spacey, well kept and close to the nice calm beach that is not too busy with people. We also appreciated the the facillities - plus the kitchen was equpped with everything that you might need during your stay, for cooking and dinning. Also the dishwasher and the washing machine were in a separate little room adjacent to the kitchen so it was really easy to keep out the mess from the common room. On top of that, a very nice lady came every day (except Sunday) to clean the vila, which really added to our comfort. The staff was lovely and thanks to the security we felt very safe and did not worry about our stuff when we went for a walk on the beach. Thanks to Warren as well, for helping us with everything we ever needed.

SwitzerlandTwo bedrooms in penthouse are facing noisy street. Despite our requests to for cleaning service to be later they kept coming when we were still in apartment. Some towels were significantly stained. Sink drains were a bit clogged.
Ocean with very nice beach, private pool and jacuzzi. Very spacious living room and kitchen. Sunsets on the terrace. Le Morne view. Close to shops and various attractions (whale watching!). Very comfortable spacious bathrooms. Very well equipped kitchen.

IndiaThere was a bit of rain so wet towels did not dry outside in the sun and there was no dryer, so we would have liked the towels to be replaced daily only because of such a situation.
Location Location Location ! It was absolutely stunning. Very Private yet a stone's throw from the beach. Lots of good restaurants nearby (Di Roma Pizza, Happy Rajah Indian Food, Ousaporn Thai Restaurant to name some and grocery & shopping places too (SuperU, London Shopping Center, Ruisseau Creole to name some. The view looking back from the ocean is gorgeous as you see a green mountain. The 4 bedroom villa with pool we stayed in was excellent ! Clean, all updated amenities, good-sized bedrooms, large bathrooms. Open living plan with living, dining and kitchen. The beds were very comfortable so everyone had good rested sleep. WiFi was very good. The place was very quiet as all the other guests would also follow the rules of no loud music after 10pm, so we had a good night sleep every night. We had one advanced swimmer and the rest of the group are all beginners, and since the reef is quite far away so very easy for the beginners to be in the ocean water and enjoy standing snorkel, swimming, floating. The sand is nice and soft, but it does have bits and pieces of coral so have to watch your step. There were hardly any people of the beach except for couple other groups staying at Manta Cove, so for the most time it was a private beach.

United Arab EmiratesOur stay was very disappointing due to level of service and cleanliness. The villa itself was good but many things didn’t work, e.g: 1) shower in the main bedroom was broken, the time of reaction from the staff was 3 days to even check and it was not repaired during our whole stay of more than a week, so we had to wash in the other one where our kid was sleeping 2) doors not closing, it took them 2 days and follow up to the management to repair (at first they said it’s normal for wooden doors…), 3) filtered water from the fridge was coming in drops vs normal flow, they noted as issue but never repaired, so we had to buy water for cooking. The cleanliness was bad as well: 1) they changed towels only once for 8 days after follow up (should have been every 3 days), some towels were dirty, 2) dirty bed linen (see photo), 3) the clean up was only mopping (no vacuum cleaning), stairs were so dirty that there were stones in the corners (we could also see everything on dirty knees of our toddler). Also you will have to buy toilet paper yourself, it’s ridiculous for such a price overall! Separate words about staff and management - it was humiliating: - one example of many, after check out time they asked us to “leave the resort” right after we freed up the villa and stood right close to us while we were only 40 min at the empty (!) beach waiting for our flight with 2 small kids. Check in was also nervous as they could not take any UAE/Saudi card for deposit (for whatever their own reason as these cards worked everywhere else on the island) and demanded cash which we didn’t have.
We only liked the villa itself and location.

South AfricaThere is no wifi in the 2 smaller bedrooms unless you keep the door open or stand right by the door The other big issue is that the unit we were allocated is located right by the main road so unless you're in the master bedroom it's extremely lout at night with cars trucks and busses driving by.
It was close to the ocean.

RomaniaMisleading information with the information provided on Booking.com about the accommodation. The pictures do not reflect the reality. Be careful when selecting the type of room as the description seems to be intentionally designed to mislead you into thinking you are renting an entire villa. They have villas, close to the beach and apartments in a flat, far from the beach, with limited to no view of the sea. The staff seems friendly and eager to help you out, but when you actually need their assistance, they either ignore your calls and/or messages, or say they will help, but never do. Overall, the value for money is POOR. You can find better accommodations for the amount they request. Definitely avoid this accommodation if you want to have a pleasant experience on the island.
