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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

New ZealandNothing we didn't like. The steep driveway might be an issue for some but we didn't find it a problem. Everything was lovely.
Beautiful little place, so handy for the beach and public transport too. The bed was super comfy, and the place was spotlessly clean. Gorgeous outlook with native bush and birds surrounding the property. We left feeling relaxed and refreshed and looking forward to staying again someday.

New ZealandThe bathroom door which I fixed ( screws on doorframe loose ) , the unpredictable performance of the stove but no big deal.
The chill Bali like feel. The obvious interest in making the stay pleasant from the hosts. The little attention to detail in regard to useful items in the cupboards.

New ZealandThe deck chairs could be more comfortable. Other than that I cannot fault it.
The bed had the perfect amount of support without being too hard (this is very important to us as we both have had spinal surgery). The locality to the beach and bus stops was perfect. The studio was beautifully appointed with everything you would require for a romantic get away.

New ZealandWe are both 72 years old and found the steep driveway hard to navigate with two suitcases and there wasn't a rail to hang onto as we went down the steps. We talked to Niall on the telephone but would have loved to meet them - even for a minute or two. Found it very difficult to watch the television as it was on a side wall. There was only one comfortable chair so the person lying on the bed ended up with a stiff neck.
Absolutely adored the birdsong and the lush jungle-feel all around the property. Loved the fact that we could slip down to the convenience store a few metres down the hill. Also loved Arcadia Restaurant next to this store and walking along Palm Beach.

AustraliaVery tiny studio with difficult access. You wouldn’t want to stay here with big bags or bad knees. No place to sit comfortably either for eating or laptop time. Bathroom tiny and dark and no laundry facilities.
A very bright property with extremely hospitable hosts. Well located for the bus around the island and a short downhill walk to the beach, shop & coffee.

Stunning romantic getaway for 2 newly weds. Couldn't fault it. Everything was thought of. The small things, a fully equipped kitchen, just bring the cheese, Cleanliness was 5*. There were little nooks where you could have some down time. A bunch of flowers on the bench, a touch of bougieness We found the local beach and dairy just a walk away. Would highly recommend

New ZealandThere was nothing we did not like but visitors need to be skilful drivers to park in a site which dips down the back. Anyone with knee issues may find the picturesque path meandering down to the studio a bit challenging. It is lit up at night so perfectly safe. Given the small (though attractive) space the rate could have been a little less.
We self catered and the kitchen had everything we needed. The images of the place were accurate and it was exactly the kind of quiet retreat we expected and wanted. Small but with a glorious outlook to the lush green outside large windows which gave a sense of being in the bush. Palm Beach is a short walk down the hill, a pretty small bay. It was a lovely place to return to after a busy time for a friend's birthday. For readers and nature lovers perfect quiet. Good linen on the very comfortable bed with the large picture window on the side to gaze out at will. The petite footprint was cleverly designed and there were two small decks to relax in.

3rd stay at Boho Hill. Absolutely love it! Unfortunately this time unexpectedly I had to work half of each day during my stay but what a perfect place to do Team meetings from - set the laptop camera showing the beautiful background of NZ natives and made the worldwide team envious! Then, there was always time in the afternoon for a short stroll to the beach. Bliss! Thank you for yet another wonderful stay at a very magical and peaceful venue. Absolutely everything one could need. Until next time! Cheers
