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.).

CanadaNothing really but AC is very loud. Might want earplugs.
The oceanfront cabins are just perfect. Beautiful, simple interior with attention to detail. A beachside patio with ample furniture, table, chairs, swing seat, long chair and hammock. Beautiful breeze and shade! Great place to relax and read a book. The staff, especially Lynn, is so kind and helpful. We had an incident with a sea urchin and she helped us procure a jug of vinegar and other items we needed to deal with the mishap. The cabin is located in front of the beginner surf break so easy access or good viewpoint to watch. The area has lots of really good places to eat within a 10 min walk. And bring water shoes!

United KingdomEverything was perfect
I can’t recommend this place enough. One of the nicest places we have stayed in the Philippines. Our beach front cottage was fabulous. A stunning view and the cottage was total luxury. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was powerful and hot. There were lots Of special little touches that puts this resort way above others. We had an endless supply of chilled fresh drinking water refilled every day. We had a kettle with unlimited tea and coffees In our room and a fridge to keep everything cool. The aircon and fan worked perfectly to keep our cottage nice and cool. The hospitality of the owners MJ and George is outstanding, george is very helpful and informative recommending the local beautiful sights to visit on motorbikes they can rent you. It’s very close to the best swimming beach on the Island and only waterfall on the island. The staff are wonderful, always happy and smiling and the place is spotless. It’s a perfect spot for those wishing to learn to surf or just watch the experts riding the waves. It’s a total paradise and delightfully relaxing compared to busy GL We will definitely be coming back any time we are visiting Siargao.

AustraliaThe location of my bungalow with direct access to the beach was amazing. The grounds are beautifully kept and the whole vibe is friendly and relaxed. The staff are so friendly and so helpful with any request. This was before my flight back to Manila was cancelled. I contacted George who found me a booking and then came to the airport and picked me up! Above and beyond. Could not recommend this place enough. I will be back.

GermanyBooked a pick up from the port, but then the car was not available because of an island tour. On hot days you have to switch on your aircon early if you want to sleep. AC mainly produces noise and is not cooling a lot. There is no door to the bathroom, so also the bathroom has to be cooled by the small AC
I think it is one of the best options to stay in Pacifico. The bungalow was nice but it was behind the beach road. Lot of options to relax on the terrace. The restaurant was good.

Awesome location by the beach in Pacifico. If you can get the beach front, get that, else you'll also be happy with the garden view rooms. The rooms are spacious and has the amenities you would need for your island adventure.

The location was perfect! It's located in a small barangay called Pacifico not too far from the airport, but fairly far from the island's main city of General Luna. The two beach cottages are located right on the beach, where you can take surfing lessons.

NetherlandsThe entire cottage has no doors inside, so little privacy if you're in the bathroom. Also, the door and window can't be fully closed, so the airco has a hard time getting the room chilled.
We liked the well built cottage, with nice bed and shower, and the green plants on the terrain. Also, waking up and walking into the gorgeous beach is incredibly beautiful. Also, the staff is super friendly and helpful, and they make a great mango curry!

PolandWe recently wrapped up our trip to the Philippines with a stay at Bamboo Surf Beach, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. This hidden gem nestled in Siargao turned out to be the perfect place to conclude our adventure. First and foremost, the location was a dream. It struck the ideal balance - not overly crowded, yet with enough nearby restaurants and shops to ensure a pleasant stay. Surrounded by stunning beaches and offering the perfect starting point for scooter rides around the island, Bamboo Surf Beach provided us with an authentic and serene experience. Our room was very comfortable and clean, with a great bathroom and all the necessary equipment provided. Wonderful attention to detail - decorations, flowers, pillows, drinking water for brushing teeth near the sink. The well-maintained garden added a touch of natural beauty, and we appreciated the diverse seating options on our porch - from a comfortable sunbed to cozy chairs and a swing chair. A special mention goes to our host, George, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. When our flight from Siargao was unexpectedly canceled, leading to a missed connection back to Europe, George displayed exceptional kindness. Without hesitation, he offered us an extra night's accommodation for free and upgraded us to a room with a sea view, turning a challenging situation into a memorable experience. His warmth and generosity were truly heartwarming and very much appreciated. In conclusion, Bamboo Surf Beach exceeded our expectations in every way. The perfect blend of comfort, charm, and exceptional hospitality, this resort stands out as a true gem. If you're looking for an unforgettable stay, look no further - Bamboo Surf Beach is undoubtedly the best accommodation in Siargao!

Shower and bathroom were a dream, and the beds were extremely comfy. The staff provided all the amenities you would need plus more! Our accommodations were extremely close to the beach, surf rentals, and shops. The restaurant provided amazing food and drinks as well.
