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 StatesThat we had to leave
First off, Sarah is fantastic! Friendly, helpful, good vibes and a genuine care to make sure my family and I had a great experience. Tiki and Aiko are the dog and cat duo that add to the charm of this exceptional place. Friendly and laid back. The property itself is so beautiful. Very relaxing. Very peaceful. The room was exceptionally clean and gave a very welcoming feeling. The bathroom and shower were very nice and private! The kitchen is great! We made some meals there and there’s enough room, space and everything you need to cook or bbq. The views were amazing from anywhere in this home. The pool was perfect! Along with the outdoor area to kick back and enjoy the grounds, we felt like we were on another vacation on our vacation! Can’t say enough good things about Fare Haurevaiti! You’ll just have to check it out for yourself.

This was a beautiful place. The location to sites is not good but the location to a great hike was very good and the place itself is beautiful. The young proprietor is a beautiful young lady, named Sarah, who is extremely charming, thoughtful, and helpful. The place is very scenic with gorgeous gorgeous views and a beautiful. Well-maintained pool. It’s decorated in a festive bohemian style. There are things like chipped tile and the house seems older (but very clean), but it’s all part of the charm. A very memorable stay I would recommend this place. I have videos, but I noticed this site will not let me upload them. I wanted to because it’s hard to capture it in photos. Sara is very helpful and rented a car for us. She offers pick up for a fee but even took us to the grocery store. We met other travelers while staying at her place just enjoying the pool and her patios and dining together. We hope to stay in touch with those people as well as Sarah. Sara will do laundry for $10 a load. Sara takes the running of her place serious and puts a lot of effort into doing it well.

GermanyWe spend 4 nights in this beautiful house and enjoyed very minute. Communication with Sarah was perfect and we didn't miss anything. Swimming at night, surrounded by the mountains was unique. We didn't want to leave. I would recommend a car to reach Fare Haurevaiti and all the sights on Moorea. www.autorentmoorea.com is a small local company with super customer service. Thank you Sarah for creating such a cute house and we hope to come back again sometime!

PortugalEverything was perfect! The Room was very private, and beatifully decorated. The beds are super confortable. The commom areas are absolutely lovely and perfect to relax. We rented a scooter there (super practical) and Sarah, the host, gave us amazing tips to visit the island. The breakfast here is also very good and you can even have some tasty homemade jam. We loved Aiko (the cat) and Tiki (the most lovely dog Ever). Its located on the heart of the island (near Cooks bay), near restaurants and near the supermarket. This place just feels like home!

United StatesThe road to go to the house is not the best, but with a car there is nothing to be scared of!
This place is an oasis in the middle of Moorea. Sarah is an amazing host and she has a lot to tell about her experiences in French Polynesia and beyond. I really enjoyed spending some time with her and if the weather were better (we were a bit unlucky), I would have loved to go with her hiking around the island. This was only one of the many activities suggested by Sarah! She was also extremely helpful in finding restaurants and places to have a quick bite. Alessandro and I will always keep in our hearts this place, Sarah and... Tiki! Very much suggested stay to have a real, off-the-beaten-path experience in Moorea.

Good bed, fully functional kitchen. Book the breakfast, its worth it. Highly suggested. Perfekt location to start a hike, good beaches are 5 to 10km away. Everything else (restaurants, supermarket) is very close.

New ZealandOur room was dark, even during the day. It also smelled musty unfortunately, at the end of our trip I thought this may have been due to the jute mat. I would have placed this outside the door had I realised sooner. It would have been good to meet the owner, I was looking forward to some of the extras she offers such as traditional weaving, and cooked breakfasts.
Access to a lovely kitchen, outdoor table and seating area, with garden. Pool was great. Room facilities OK although wasteful not being able to put plug in sink. From the balcony areas the views of the surrounding mountain basin was amazing. Particularly tranquil in the mornings!
