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.).

PhilippinesRooms were dated with bugs
Rooms and service very average. What saves this from a lower rating is the excellent food and reasonably priced food. Sugar Beach is hard to get to and nothing special.

GermanyThe bathroom needs maintenance. We had to pay a parking fee and there's no free Wifi. But they have Peso Wifi Vendo. I think, I paid 20pesos for 5 hours.
The staff are very helpful and attentive. There's a faucet to wash sand off your feet upon entry to your room. The room is big and has a porch with a huge table. The Beach is amazing and stone free.

PhilippinesThe resto area is gloomy and the tables need replacing. But the food is good. Plenty of other restos in adjacent resorts.
Great location, excellent food, comfortable room. Its easy to get there these days, no boat ride needed, just drive to parking area and begin your relaxation. The big sandy beach with no rocky bottom is safe and excellent for swimming for the whole family.

PhilippinesStaff and owner were very friendly, accommodating and indeed hospitable. Since we decided on a very short notice to upgrade our room, the owner was very generous to give us a reasonable price. True to their words, their guest’s health is also their concern. Place is great for relaxation and quiet at night hence we got our needful rest before the year ended. Truly, Big Bamboo has a big heart for its guests!

PhilippinesOutdoor beach furniture looking a old and tired, with no new beach chairs for example. We were a group of ten, but there were only eight beach chairs available. Restaurant was ok, but again the bamboo furniture is dated and needs some upgrading. AC in the room worked ok though it was a bit noisy, but tolerable. Room towels were old and in poor condition. WiFi is very slow, but this is a remote location.
Great location on a beautiful white sandy beach with calm water for swimming and lots of shade trees. Good food, but service was a little slow at times. Room was comfortable though decorations within the room are looking a little tired. Next to a number of other resorts, all connected with a shady walkway to all the restaurants, which was great. A good place to chill out and relax.

United StatesDinner service at this place but also at 2-3 other similar restaurants and resorts on this beach was ridiculous. waited once 1 hour before the meal came and no one told me it was going to take an hour…. (orders outside the restaurant were being prepared, all good and well but I was the only restaurant customer who should have been informed about it)… another issue was paying for internet access, via coins in a machine near the bar. it takes a day to learn how to pause the internet access, it’s not told when you purchase it, the pausing doesn’t work anyways so you burn though your time
where else can you be direct on the beach and share a stretch of 1 km with less than 30-40 people on a weekend? Staff was great and

PhilippinesI suggest putting up a shower area right before we go back to the resort from the beach to remove the sands in our clothing, we experienced that sands accumulated in our comfort rooms coming from our shorts or rashguards.
The staff is very accommodating and the resort is clean and organized. It feels like I'm away from civilization. superb.ards.
