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.).

United KingdomIt was further from the beach than we thought. But nothing is very far in Huraa. The beach is a 7-8 minute walk.
The staff were very helpful and courteous. The rooms provided were very comfortable. Special mention for Sameer and Rishfan who were always available.

AustraliaThe food was average.
Amazing place to stay! The staff were so lovely and friendly, really happy to answer any questions. Their communication was excellent throughout - we messaged them at the time of booking and they confirmed things with us in the lead up, including booking our transfer from Male. Upon check-in, they provided a lovely explanation. The room was spacious and clean. The air conditioning was most welcomed. We also really valued having access to bikes to ride around the island. Would stay again and highly recommend.

This was one of the most beautiful vacation we have had. The people in Maldives are very nice and friendly, and, in particular, Sameer, his son Rishfan and his staff are absolutely amazing. Mr. Sameer is the perfect host. Very guest-oriented, not too pushy but always there to inform or help you. A hard worker who gives his best so that his guests feel comfortable and perfectly treated! The accommodation was as expected, the rooms are perfectly arranged and equipped. Sameer is offering breakfast, lunch and dinner and you can order one day in advance. You can enjoy Maldivian typical dishes, fish, seafood, chicken, pasta, salads etc. The food was excellent and made with love. You will always have cold water available on the terrasse and at the reception. Regarding trips, I strongly recommend having them with Sameer. He knows everything about Maldives and the surroundings, and offers impeccable services. If you want to see the perfect sunset, I recommend you to go fishing with Sameer. He will teach you with a lot of patience how to throw the line and feel if the fish bites. With a little bit of luck, you'll catch the Giant Trevally (as we did 😊), which is considered a specific trophy on the island. We have also had a customized trip to the local Himmafushi sand-bank and another nice small island in the area (Vabboahura). Ask Sameer for this trip, you will not regret it. Finally, we have also tried a snorkeling trip with Sameer, and he has filmed us with his GoPro camera and shared the video. By staying at Sameer, you will understand the Maldivian life style, try the local food, understand the culture and history of Maldives (from Sameer and Rishfan), enjoy very good accommodation and food at Sunrise Huraa. Thank you Mr. Sameer for the perfect time spent in your guesthouse! Many thanks also to Rishfan (it was a pleasure to talk to you!). Greetings to your team Bhupendra and Dharmendra! Choose Sunrise Huraa for the real Maldivian experience, you will not regret it!

IndiaLeft our bags to go eat (had to wait to pay) and came back and they were moved and the shoes were not so we forgot them in our haste.
The rooms were very nice and clean. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Beds are very comfortable. They made airport transfer very easy. Very close to the bikini beach and away from the busier part of the island although the island is very laid back.

PolandSmall selection of food (the owner seems to be a cook as well), breakfast portions could have been larger
I've spend 2 very peaceful and beautiful days in Huraa. Owner of Thw Sunrise is very helpful as all crew that is working here. They help us with ferry from Male (book and directions to jetty) also advice us what is the best way to get there from other island. He not only booked our ferry and to Male, but also was waiting for us when we arrived and helped with baggage. We could pay him and the price was good (10$ / person). Our room was clean and had everything that is needed for a stay here. Ac and fan was working very well (I didn't know that fan can work that good with heat!) Clean towels and free water were outside the room beside the basket when you can put dirty towels. I can only recommend this place to stay in this beautiful island. There are also bikes that you can borrow (for free) and ride around.

United KingdomEverything was superb!
This is my first 10+ review Sameer and Jack went beyond my expectation They picked me up and luggagefrom getty and return. Warm welcome at the top, I had offered a fresh towel to clean my hand when I arrive with complimentary drink My room was upgraded for free at not extra charge only because it was available and it was a kind thing to do for their guest. The place was clean. And given extra towel in advance for shower and beach. Toiletries were available, plus complimentary tea and coffee with cattle in the room. Bed was very confortable. Host and staff very attentive and anticipating any need I could have. Communication was excellent. I had dinner and Maldivian breakfast- very delicious Also the apple from their tree were very nice:-) I did an excursion with Sameer and he made it memorable with the last touch of making videos with his gopro and passing everything on in a very short time for free. Service was +5stars and they made me feel at home. They let me use also a bike to go around. I felt so safe that I left my room unlocked all the time! I definitely recommend this guest house to everyone ! You should have no option for free cancellation.

LuxembourgVery nice approach of the owner, his son and whole Staff to the guests. Upon arrival at Huraa harbour we were welcomed by the representatives from the hotel, making us feel special from the very beginning. The same happened on the way back. During the wole stay the owner and his son were very helpful and they had philosophy that there is no problem with any of our requests. They also arranged for us a direct transport to the airport. Thanks to them we could hear a lot of interesting stories about Huraa, the nature around, fauna flora etc. The son of the owner has a really impressive knowledge about the underwater world. We found them very open minded and discussions with them were enjoyable for us. The food was also very good. We also tried the dishes in other places in Huraa but there was no comparison especially with the service. The guys from the Staff were really involved with their work too. Each person was trying to make our stay as most nice as possible. We really appreciate that we could be in such place.

FranceWe were wonderfully taken care of. as soon as we arrive in the Maldives at the airport, the journey to Malé Huraa is done by speed boat in just 15 minutes. During from our arrival on the island, we were very well welcomed by smiling and welcoming staff. Our room was simply beautiful, spacious, very comfortable, well equipped and relaxing. We immediately felt like at home to our greatest happiness. Coast breakfast, we couldn't ask for better. Indeed, there is a wide choice offered to customers. At subject of activities, a large panel is available for all budgets. We had the chance to participate in the fishing activity with snorkeling and blue lagoon sandbank excursion which was Magic. On the trip I see too much daulphin it’s amazing ! We thank the staff for all the organization of the latter, for their smile and their kindness. A memorable moment in the middle of Indian Ocean. In addition, we were able to diversify our catering thanks to the restaurants located on the island, all of which are perfect. A very special thank you to Abdullah who organized our stay to perfection and who gave himself bother to respond to all our requests. We we really liked the moment of diving as well as the video taken with his GoPro which will remain a memory for life.
