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.).

We loved everything - from the first moment arrived till we had to leave. It was peaceful and tranquil experience. The staff were amazing and the food was excellent. There is a calm long beach right in front of your villa, where you may enjoy beautiful sunsets every evening. Last but not least there is good and accessible snorkeling, sup and kayak also available whenever you want to use them and a wide variety of daily excursions in case you want to explore the nearby area.

United KingdomThat we had to leave!
We took a risk booking San Nicolas as there were minimal reviews and it is a remote location, we are so pleased we did as our stay was the highlight of our trip! It is a piece of paradise for couples looking for a peaceful place to relax. Beach was very beautiful (pictures do not do it justice), it is a short trip to black island also which is a good excursion. Staff all lovely too, special thanks to the manager Abraham who was on hand for anything we needed during our stay including booking massages and arranging a late check out. Do not hesitate to book this place if you want a few days to switch off and relax, we dream of coming back one day.

United Kingdom-
Absolutely thrilled with our experience at Javier and Abraham! From the moment we stepped foot on the premises, we were enveloped in an aura of excellence. The staff's dedication to hospitality was unparalleled, leaving us feeling not just welcomed, but truly cherished throughout our stay. Nestled in an idyllic location, every aspect of this retreat screams perfection. The picturesque setting, combined with the tranquil ambiance, made for a dreamlike escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. And let's talk about the breakfast - a culinary masterpiece that tantalised our taste buds and set the tone for each day of our stay. But what truly sets Javier and Abraham apart is its ethos and philosophy. It's not just a place to rest your head; it's a sanctuary for the soul, where mindfulness and rejuvenation are at the forefront of everything they do. The remote location of Busuanga served as the perfect backdrop for our journey into relaxation mode, and the journey to San Nicolas Private Beach took us even deeper into blissful serenity. Attempting to rate this oasis on a scale of 1 to 10 feels like an injustice. It transcends numerical values; it's an experience that defies quantification. Suffice it to say, Javier and Abraham have set the bar impossibly high, spoiling us for any other destination. If perfection had a name, it would surely be San Nicolas Private Beach with the top staff.

United KingdomSuch a magical stay on SNPB. Can’t top the location, a breathtaking beach. Javier, Abraham and the team were amazing hosts and you’ll find it hard to beat Sandra’s cooking! We also did an excellent 2 island boat trip and also used their kayaks and paddle boards to go and snorkel at the reef in front of the beach. Pure bliss!!

Where shall I start? The location is simply Heaven on Earth and Javier and his team make the whole experience even more outstanding. It begins with onboarding the banca to access the resort. The service, the food and the trip to Black Island. And, the super friendly and open team. A 10/10 doesn't reflect the experience. Thanks for having us, Javier.

What a pleasant surprise! We took a chance on this place as there weren’t many pictures and reviews available online. But everything turned out to be AMAZING! The pick-up service was seamless. The hotel is like a dream, so gorgeous! The best part was we were the only guests there during our stay, so it was a private experience throughout. The staff took really good care of us with their kindness and hospitality. The food was absolutely delicious! We stayed for 4 nights and definitely had a hard time to say goodbye to this hidden gem!

NetherlandsOnly one point that can be slightly improved is that the personnel is very shy to ask questions if they do not understand the guests completely. But it was not an issue for us.
Ultimate destination if you are into a relaxing beach vacation as the beach is private, only for hotel guests and they have only a few rooms available. In fact we were the only guests at that moment. Black island is only a very short distance away and can be easily visited on a morning trip. The food was plentiful and delicious. The free private transfer from the airport went very smoothly.

We were a bit skeptical due to the few reviews, but it's just because it's fairly new and luckily we booked as our stay was absolutely incredible. The resort is on a long beautiful private beach facing Black Island and beautiful sunsets. Bungalows are new, fully equipped and super nice. Loved the outdoor shower. We had all our meals directly on the beach, the food was delicious and in a romantic setting. The staff was super sweet and helpful. We went with a kayak to snorkel on the coral reef just in front of the resort, even saw a turtle! Otherwise they can bring you by boat to Black Island - which is also beautiful. All transfers were perfectly planned.. What more! Highly recommended!

FranceThis hotel is exceptional: the site is unique, facing the sunset, and the beach is magnificent and truly private. There is a large, very well-kept garden, the accommodations are perfect and very well decorated. And the food served buffet style is excellent. A place that gives an idea of paradise. We were very well received by Javier, the owner of the place. It is magic and upper class !!!
