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.).

Lithuaniabreakfast was ok, but dinner was a little disaster. Sorry, but you should change the chef. The food was really flavourless (even curry), the ingredients do not match (white fish with sweet jam), some dishes do not match to the recipes (creme brulee, greek salad), lack of sauces, the fish was too dry or too raw, no salad buffet. Lobster evening doesnt worth additional expenses: dinner consisted of three dishes made from one little lobster. I was succeeded to have warm wine twice and prosecco without bubbles. Instant coffee in the room should be taken out.
comfy beds, nice beach, perfect massage. It was pleasure to have very early breakfast before flight and it was served perfect. Water bottles in the room. Pleasant personal, sometimes too slow ( in the restaurant), but its ok:)

United KingdomThe alcoholic drinks were very expensive - a small glass of very ordinary wine was £10. Service was variable from very good to very indifferent. The daily evening buffet was quite good but if you want a change and go to the Plantation restaurant the credit wasn’t great for those on half board. Also the food at the Plantation wasn’t anything to write home about. There are some sailing boats for guest use but I was told “I couldn’t use them today because of the coral” Not entirely sure what he meant as there were plenty of speed boats in the water!
Great setting

SloveniaThe hotel would need a minor refreshment. Due to the bad weather they cancelled all the outdoor activities but did not offer an adequate compensation. It was funny since they explained is that they are cancelling everything (snorkelling trips, etc.) but that we have to pay extra for the halfboard of our 5year old child.
Very nice surrounding, rooms are are of timeless design and it is beachfromt with a small coral reef for snorkelling. The staff was nice and helpfull.

United StatesNot much. A coffee shop would have been an extra bonus. The appetizers at the a la carte restaurant (The Plantation) were lukewarm, not hot; the main course and dessert were excellent.
(1) Outstanding choice of foods ar buffet meals. (2) Unobtrusive service. (3) Calm and laid-back atmosphere. (4) Size, decor and comfort of rooms.

United KingdomThere was some active construction near the tennis courts and also some maintenance work being done in the lobby during the daytime, which somewhat detracted from the ambience. I wondered whether there might have been another time this could have been done - especially since late October is an ideal time for visitors. I would have liked to be able to order 'proper coffee' at breakfast rather than getting it from a machine.
Hugely accommodating and friendly staff who could not do enough for us. I was travelling with two 13-year-old girls, and they both had a marvellous time. The spa accommodated them for some treatments. We were all incredibly sad to leave. Staff were helpful in arranging excursions and transport. Overall, a beautiful experience.

RussiaThe beach access is weird, no privacy. Locals keep coming and selling souvenirs. It was annoying. I wish you provide the mask for snorkelling not just the boat tour but for free use for your guests. During dinner we noticed a cockroach in the nut bowl. I managed to catch it and kill, informed the staff but they seemed indifferent to that.
Very good service, staff is efficient and professional. Clean, good variety of food

AustraliaIf I have to pick something it’s probably that the beach towels were too big and somewhat heavy. But this is only a mild complaint!
The incredible staff (at every level) made our stay extra special! Always courteous, kind and willing to help! Great ambiance and terrific beach walks

BelgiumThe access to the beach not possible unless you walked down sandy banks, the steps were unavailable due to the lack of repair following erosion. The food was excellent and well presented, but the lack of western style vegetarian dishes could present a problem to vegetarians that did not eat Asian food. Perhaps a modification to the egg station at breakfast needs a review as people were uncertain where to stand for placing orders, in addition at busier times there was a queue that impeded the flow through the buffet.
An excellent modern hotel with superb facilities, luxurious rooms and very good food.

GermanyThe best thing of this hotel is the staff! Seeing in our travel period the occupancy was under 20% we stayed a week and a big thanks to all the staff.Without them no hotel no hotel is anything! We were greater daily by the breakfast team with a wonderful breakfast buffet! Many thanks to Julie,Yasmin,Jessica,Bandana and our Chef Moonsamy who probably makes the best omelette we have tasted! The evening restaurant team and bar always made sure everything was fine with a 5 star rotation buffet menu! Special thanks to the Chef Sanguy who always had a smile for us and a small story! The whole kitchen team was fabulous! The hotel has many features and we enjoyed the beaches there and the pool! The rooms are spacious and the housekeeping crew with the floor butler looked after everything perfectly! Front office staff were very professional with concierge and the gardeners look after the property so it was a pleasure to enjoy the nature! I can recommend this hotel to travelers who want to relax and enjoy sophisticated food and service! My wife and son will be back and thanks to all involved to make our week stay memorable!
