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.).

CanadaFood and beverages was a bit pricey. No free beverage (coffee, tea, juice)except for drinking water.
We were the only guests during our 2 nights stay, so it was quite. Amazing view from the dining area. There were 4 rooms available and empty. Our room was at the bottom corner, few steps away directly towards the pool. Breakfast was delicious. Our host Diane was very attentive and happy to serve us and answered all our questions and concerns. She is also a good chef.

I stayed with family on this short trip on our way to Coron and there really isn’t anything I can fault at this property. George is incredibly responsive even before we arrived with making sure we had a driver to collect us from the airport and who stayed with us for the duration of the trip whilst also recommending things for us to do/see outside of our original plan. The property itself is just stunning with a view that will just take your breath away. George prepares all meals from scratch with fresh ingredients and really is a wonderful chef, you will not be disappointed! I think the highlight of our stay was just how comfortable George and his family made us feel in such a short space of time. We honestly felt like we were staying in our own home and will most definitely be staying here again next time we are in the Philippines.

HungaryIts not a negative comment, just to inform you guys, if you desire white sand beach, this is not that place, but you can get motorbike to discover the area.
We appreciated the tranquillity of the place. George, the owner, is incredibly kind, we couldn't have asked for anything he couldn't have helped us with. The wonderful view that we got every morning was priceless.

United KingdomWith being hidden away the road to the resort is hidden and a bit scary. I would suggest updating the signage and making the route to the hotel a little more presentable for the luxury feel you get when you are at the resort. The wifi also was not great. This is not too much of a problem as there is cell signal.
The property is situated atop a hill that overlooks a view of the coast. Behind the resort mountains. The resort is a great place to spend time secluded and to meditate and rest. The food is really good, it’s all freshly prepared and delicious. The price is on the higher side. My partner and I spent about £25 a day each. But I could rest easy knowing that the food was of the highest quality.

JapanWe enjoyed a complete privative time. The food was very good. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all excellent. The location was close to the tourist attraction Oslob, Kawasan Falls and we did not get tired of moving. If we had moved from Cebu City we would have been exhausted. Argao has a nice church, beach and market. We were able to get there quickly by tricycle and did some sightseeing.Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

NetherlandsThe minor point is that the location is quite far from Cebu and the mountain road is a little rocky, George is working in it though!
Staff and owners are extremely friendly. George arranged so many things for us for the few days that we stayed. The room was spacious and the bathroom was nice.

AustraliaI couldn’t complain about the property. It is a little off the beaten track and there’s little to do around the property in the evening
The view was spectacular, and George was very welcoming. My partner and I had never been to the Philippines before and George helped us out before we even arrived by suggesting ferry options and tours to do during our stay. Couldn’t have asked for more in a host. George’s food is also exceptional

SingaporeWe had the most delightful stay at this resort!! George was an amazing host and a great chef. The wonderful meals he churned out was one of the highlights of our trip. Love that it’s so accessible to Osmena Peak and Oslob whale Shark village. Instead of having to wake up at 3am to get to the whale sharks, we could comfortably get up at 6am. We just love that at the end of each day of adventure, we can go back to a super comfortable and relaxing resort to unwind.

Czech RepublicPanorama resort is located in the beautiful nature above the Argao city, which Ives the perfect opportunity to explore and discover most of the attractions which Cebu island offers. The owner is very helping to make the stay unforgettable. Jirka and his wife offer meals entire day and the food is home made and delicious. I definitely recommend to stay at this resort. You can rent a bike and explore local beaches where you can swim with turtles. There are just four rooms, huge pool which made very nice atmosphere. We enjoy our stay a lot. Děkujeme, Jirko

Finlandwe loved everything! No complaints.
We stayed for 6 nights and we could not have been happier with our stay. The place is really private so if you need some space and tranquility, this is the place to be. The pool area is gorgeous with a seaview. George and his family served us excellently, and everything always worked out even better than expected and they made all our wishes come true. Food was delicious and we could get something to eat or drink pretty much anytime we wished. The place is pretty isolated so in order to go to places you can use the scooters that the resort offers. They also arrange drivers if you wish to do day trips that are also arranged by the resort just perfectly. The atmosphere is just beautiful and calm and you really get to have the recharge you need. Everything was just simply working and we were enjoying ourselves fully! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Hey, I recently spent some time at this amazing family-owned hotel, and I have to say, I had an absolutely fantastic experience. The sea views were out of this world. The swimming pool offered a great place to cool down after a long day of exploring. But the real highlight for me was the food. It was all homemade and made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients! Owners were super friendly and went out of their way to make sure that we had everything we needed. And let me tell you, the rooms were huge, comfy, and spotlessly clean! All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with breathtaking views, amazing food, and wonderful hospitality. Don't miss out on this one!

GermanyIn the Panorama de Argao we were able to spend incredibly beautiful days and nights. George, his wife, the kids and his team gave us (a group of three couples) a super great vacation. When we were there, only three of the four rooms were occupied, so the entire boutique hotel "belonged" to us. We were able to move very freely, and yet the whole team/the whole family was always ready to help and approach. We felt so completely free and unsupervised and could totally switch off. The panoramic view is absolutely to be emphasized and enables everyone to enjoy the whole landscape over a wide view every day. George's cooking skills were our highlight in the Philippines after we had been traveling on different islands for two weeks. He has refined and perfected the Filipino cuisine, so that we were able to taste the best food in the last days of our trip to the Philippines. The rooms were really nicely furnished, offered a lot of space and were extremely clean. Even now, four weeks after our stay, we are still impressed by what George and the whole family built up there. Everything he thought up, designed and built to a high standard himself, he put a lot of heart and sweat into the boutique. But it pays off. As he told us, even after a severe typhoon, the majority of the system remained steadfast, which many residents did not consider and had to build entire systems from scratch. George is extremely entertaining and recommended some activities for us to do. He organized a gigantic day of canyoning at Kawasan Falls with all the trimmings - an unforgettable experience. He also organized a birthday cake with champagne and wonderful flowers at short notice! All in all we enjoyed a wonderful stay and recommend everyone to switch off for a few days there! Let yourself be surprised and look forward to wonderful days in the Panorama de Argao!!!

PhilippinesIt was definetely amazing! You are very private there because the Hotel only got 4 rooms - so you can really enjoy the peace and quiet of this location. The pool is also absolutely amazing - its right in front of your room so you can easily jump in to cool down. The view is also breathtaking. The owner and his family are very lovely. There trying everything to feel you welcome and like a part of the family. Also when you have questions or need organisation George is helping you and is doing everything for you. The breakfast and diner were very, very delicious. I would recomend it 100 %! Keep in Mind - the Location is up on a hill! You dont have the ocean or beach in walking distance - but you have a beautiful view of the ocean. Also shops and restaurants are down the big hill so you probably need a motorbike which you can get from George!
