How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Some basic servicing would be useful for longer stays - e.g. changing bins, towels. Internet on the top floor was not great
Great balcony with beautiful views Spacious Good location

We stayed for 2 weeks, could have stayed longer. It has a spacious kitchen, dinning, living room area where we could just relax without falling over each other. The windows in the kitchen open right up that you feel like you are outside. Friendly staff that came and cleaned every few days, they even offered a clothes washing service. It’s in a gated compound with ample parking spots. We could have stayed longer.

The apartment was spacious, very clean and safe. We stayed 5 days with the family and it was very comfortable. We had rented car which we parked inside the property.. Wi-Fi was working perfectly, nice location with all needed facilities around.

the selection of knives - all of them were REALLY blunt. there was no even a drop of washing ligued, salt or sugar. I think - it would not cost the host more than 5€ and the visitors could enjoy this even more [what's the point for a short visit to buy 1kg of sugar or salt for example?..] A bit far away from the beach - but for us it was perfect sas the place ewas very quiet and we had a rented car to drive to the beach within 4-5min.
Really GREAT place to live - even for 2-3 weeks although we were there only 4 nights. Very spacious appartment [ca 60m2] with comfortable bed, TV/sitting area, big fridge, fully equipped kitchen and balcony with great view for the ocean [especially sunsets]. Efficient wifi. You can really have a rest after long day of travel and visiting places. I do recommend the place! :D

We came to Mauritius to work remotely and stayed at Residence Barbera for a month. Everything was perfect: the living room is very large, nicely furnished and has a huge window looking out to the sea (so the sunsets were stunning each evening). The kitchen has all you can need (we cooked ourselves on working days) and it's all in good order. All bedrooms have AC that works well. Wifi was sufficient for both of us to work. The beach is 7 min away (on foot), there are supermarkets close by, so location is nice. The is parking space if you rent a car. The apartment was regularly (twice a week) cleaned, towels and bedsheets were changed. Great place on all accounts, I highly recommend it!

No basics for cooking(salt, sugar, oil, tea or coffee) or washing clothes soap. No clothes drying rack in the flat, only a common one in the roof with insufficient space or pins. We had to keep the bathroom doors always closed because there was a bad smell spreading to the rest of the flat. The TV was not picking up any channels and no one came to fix it. The kitchenware was in bad shape(blunt cutting knives, some pots damaged and dropping non-stick film chunks). Although we had access to the swimming pool it is part of the owner's home and we had to walk by their living room to access it which made it awkward and not welcoming. There is no Mauritian contact number listed for this property(the one available is french,+33).
The apartment was quiet, the rooms and common spaces were very comfortable and spacious. It was quite clean and almost all our problems were addressed very quickly. The swimming pool is quite nice.

Internet was not working in the apartment. Just on the terrase. The furniture is outdated. Constant noise from all the construction going on. We were missing some basic essentials in the kitchen for cooking.
The size of the flat is good, also the terrase and the view from there. The bed was small but comfortable. Location is good if you have your own transport.

There was no hot water every day. The internet was not good.
The room was on the fourth floor and large balcony where you could admire the sunset. The rooms were clean. The car could be parked in the yard, which was safe.
