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.).

New ZealandI had a perfect stay at Isla. Hahsaan’s communication was really clear- he asked if I needed help with booking the speedboat before I arrived, met me at the harbour when I arrived on the local ferry (and there was someone to transport the bags to the guest house) and also made it really easy to arrange scuba diving when I arrived (he’s an instructor). The breakfast in the courtyard each morning was really nice and it was great to try the traditional Maldivian breakfast. The whole stay was just so peaceful, the room was large and clean and had everything I needed as well as being well located to all of the bikini beaches and a convenience store was just outside. As a bonus, when I said I was interested in seeing the stingrays that come to feed at night, Hahsaan arranged it to show me which was very cool!

FranceJust a short comment about the breakfast, we are coming from France and we love food, so we gently suggest to add some fruits other than only water melon, orange and apple, they were not so tasty, there are bananas the whole year and mangos at season ( we found in the shops) !!
The nice place in the middle of the island, the room size and our host Hahsaan, nice guy always available ! Nice diner too, included in our package

PolandEverything was perfect.
It was perfect. The guesthouse host Hashaan was very helpful and friendly. At our request, he organized a perfect speedbot transfer from Male airport to Dhiffushi and back. The luggage was transported from the port of Dhiffushi to the guesthouse by melex. Hashaan also organized activities for us such as snorkeling, a visit to the sand bank and an afternoon encounter with dolphins (unfortunately there were no dolphins that day). The room we ordered was large, with a balcony, bathroom and individually controlled air conditioning, equipped with an electric kettle, hairdryer and flat-screen TV with working Netflix and Prime Video. Breakfasts were served on the patio among the plants growing there. From the guesthouse, it is about 50 meters to the ocean on the lagoon side and close to the northern, more touristy, Bikini beach with wonderful white sand, aquamarine and emerald ocean water, as well as restaurants and cafes. Near the guesthouse, maybe about 100 meters away, right on the shore of the lagoon, there is the Downtown restaurant with delicious frozen orange juice and delicious - in our opinion - and inexpensive lunch meals, e.g. Devilled Fish or Butter Chicken. In the evening, while eating dinner there, you can admire rays and small sharks swimming directly to the shore. The time spent on the island allowed us - also thanks to Hashaan's efforts - to rest, for which we thank him very much.

IndiaRooms are not cleaned everyday. Had to repeatedly ask for clean sheets and towels.
After booking the property, the staff was very helpful in answering all my queries, booking speedboat to the island etc. the room was clean and as shown in the pictures. It’s not next to the beach but given it’s a small island, all beaches are within 5 minutes walking distance from the hotel.

everything! Highly recommended. Modern, spacious comfortable rooms, very clean, with good beds, good aircon, hot hot water, good lighting. very helpful friendly owner. great central location, 2-5 mins from everywhere. Dhiffushi is much more laid-back & authentic than one of the crammed tourist islands.

Hong KongIt was a bit noisy. I think a top floor room is probably better choice. There was a lot of banging going on, but maybe only short term, I don't know. Although there are several lights, there's not really enough light to study or do any work, if one wants to, without eye strain! I'd have a brighter light over the desk cum bench.
The service was excellent. Very nice and helpful. The location was central. The bed was excellent. The sheets were soft and nice quality. The shower was good, there was enough hot water. The room was large. The aircon was good. It had everything you need. The outside area where breakfast is served is pleasant with all its tropical plants.

This is and amazing place to stay !! we arrived at dhiffushi island and we choose to stay in this hotel and we were absolutely impressed from our stay there. It’s a new hotel with absolutely clean and big space rooms and located 50 meters from the popular bikini beach! 10 meters from the hotel is also a small mini market that has everything u need. Every day they change their breakfast between Maldivian and international options! For the lovers of the room lights it’s like a plus that they have neon blue colours inside the room and the toilet! In all these the amazing behavior of the people who are running the business that are always with the smile and ready to help u with anything is a big plus ! we loved this place and for sure we will visit again !
