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.).

UkraineWe had amazing stay at CocoVilla! Manager Abdullah was so kind and helpful starting from our arrival to the port till the departure. He is so attentive to the guests! The room was clean and comfortable with fantastic terrace with garden view so that you can feel yourself in the real jungle. The food was also great, our recommendation is to book half board in advance as the food was diverse and extremely delicious! The location is very convenient, the hotel is in the middle of the island so you can easily get to any beach by bicycle

United KingdomWe spend 6 days in Coco Villa recently and it was one of the best hotel experience we have ever had. Abdullah is an amazing host and all the hotel staff are very helpful and carring. The hotel facilities are very good. The rooms are big and comfortable. The daily room service is excellent. Beautiful garden in the middle. The food in the hotel is delicious. Every day different/ surprising breakfast. Evening meals fabulous and good value for money. We went for 2 trips organised by the hotel and both were excellent and professionally organised. We have had a really good time in Coco Villa. We would definitely come back again.

Czech RepublicThe stay at Thoddoo Island was in one word perfect! And the choice of accommodation in Coco Villa was the best choice. It is very high-quality and tastefully furnished accommodation, including all the services you need for your stay. Breakfast very tasty and different every day. It is possible to rent bicycles, which will make transportation around the island much easier. Possibility to rent snorkeling equipment for free. Snorkeling is absolutely amazing on Thoddoo! And all this was provided for us by the hotel manager, Mr. Abdullah, who is truly a man in his place! He is incredibly nice, helpful and will help you with everything you need for your satisfaction during your stay! Abdullah will also arrange transportation to and from the airport. Thank you very much again and we will definitely come back sometime.

SlovakiaWe enjoyed our stay very much, the service and the staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. They helped us with everything. Once we ordered dinner and it was very tasty. We even get little birthday cake for free when they realized that one of us had birthday. As we were a group of six adults and two little children, we enjoy playing desk games in the evenings in the big patio.

Cocovilla Guest House on Thoddoo Island is super great! There is a beautiful garden, a charming lounge where you can relax, unwind, and even get some work done (extra power sockets and free wifi available). The rooms are bright and cleaned every day, and also there is unlimited access to bottled water. But the true gem of Cocovilla is Abdullah, the manager. He's incredibly caring and attentive, available to assist you 24/7 via WhatsApp or phone and ensure your comfort, whether you're enjoying the island or need something specific (he even found a smaller bike for my little sister). His genuine warmth makes you feel right at home. The food is delicious, especially the BBQ fish! They also organize exciting activities like fishing trips and snorkeling excursions. I highly recommend booking these in advance with Abdullah, as we booked on the last day before departure and unfortunately, the weather turned bad, making the sea too rough for the trip. But thankfully we were able to go the private fishing trip and even catch some. Overall, I highly recommend Cocovilla Guest House. I'm definitely coming back this year for a longer stay! I will miss you, Cocovilla and Abdullah!

RussiaThe only thing I did not like is that we only stayed for three nights, definitely not enough. Booking Coco Villa is not easy, it is fully booked pretty often, so early booking is recommended if you are willing to really enjoy it. Going to other guest houses after Coco Villa is a nightmare, as your memories of this place are still vivid
This was my third visit to Thoddoo island and altogether I have stayed in more than 10 guest houses. So I am know the local accommodation options pretty well. Without any doubt, Coco Villa is the best option money can buy on Thoddoo. Attention to details is what differs the good from the best, and Coco Villa will exceed whatever expectations you may have. My advice is to book a superior room to get the best experience. Everything else - the territory, the location, the breakfasts, the staff - is perfect anyway

Top of the Top Guest House - Feeling Right at Home in Paradise We've stayed in luxury resorts and guest houses, but none have ever come close to the pure home away from home feeling we experienced at Cocovilla. Right from the start, Abdul's warm welcome at the harbor set the tone for an exceptional stay. His genuine hospitality and enthusiasm for the island were infectious, and we felt ourselves drawn in before we even set foot on the guest house. The arrival at Cocovilla was truly special. Abdul's heartfelt "welcome home" resonated deeply, and the refreshing cold coconuts and cool towels were the perfect antidote to the journey. Then came the best introduction ever - a detailed yet easy-to-understand overview of the island and the guest house that left us excited to explore and fully prepared for every aspect of our stay. We knew we loved the beaches and food even before stepping outside, thanks to Abdul's passionate descriptions! Our room was a haven of cleanliness and comfort. Daily housekeeping kept things neat and clean and leaving a beautiful scent behind each time. The garden was another gem - organized, well-maintained, and a joy to walk through. But the true heart of Cocovilla is its food. Every meal was a delight, showcasing fresh ingredients with perfect execution. And of course, there was Abdul again, with his ever-present helpfulness and friendly service. We've never met a manager who so genuinely cared for guests' well-being. His dedication to making our stay perfect truly touched us. Cocovilla, you've earned a top spot in our travel memories. We will most definitely be back, and we have no doubt you'll be seeing messages from Algeria soon, drawn in by our glowing recommendations! Thank you again for an unforgettable experience. ❤️

IrelandThere was nothing I disliked, apart from mosquitoes, which are in abundance on Thoddoo. If you are sensitive to these little flies, like me, carry along a strong repellent (I had an ultrasound repellent which did not work and deet 50 spray protected me for about 1-2 hours. I hated the fact that i had to wear the spray each time I went to the beach, and reapply it regularly to avoid bites. If bitten, the best remedy is Bepantiseptic fist aid cream, that stops the itchiness in seconds. But the hotel room was clean from mosquitoes, so you will be safe.
It was my first time on Thoddoo, and I didn't know what to expect... Coco Villa stood out to me for its lovely design, nice premises and great reviews, so i decided to book my stay at this place. And bingo! The hotel has exceeded my expectations in all aspects - The room was sparkling clean, refreshed every day. Lovely green courtyard has been kept nice and tidy. The food was delicious and the staff - just AMAZING. Friendly and available anytime, Abdullah and his team are there for all the guests to make their stay comfortable and memorable. I cannot thank enough all the staff for hospitality :) Always with a smile, they were a pleasure to deal with. An outstanding team!
