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.).

CanadaThere is substantial renovations happening immediately next to the water Color’s building only between 9 and 5pm. If you are out at this time it will not affect you. If you sleep in or work from home this is not the place for you until the major construction is completed. It’s a small hotel, the room a little small, minimal facilities but the staff do what they can to make the most of what it is. The location is ok but a 10-15 minutes walk to station 2 attractions like D mall and some main clubs, Starbucks etc.
Friendly staff, understanding, accommodating, flexible, good bed, nice room overall, fairly soun proof to road traffic, location is on the beach so beautiful

AustraliaThe room was service twice daily but the bathroom was getting a bit tired and the wooden floors warped. The door to the balcony gave u a work out when trying to open and close it.
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left every single staff member was super welcoming, helpful and super friendly. The beach front room was brilliant with a balcony to while away the hours watching the gorgeous white sand beach. So easy to walk to everything. Flat beach, good footpaths and easy walking distance. Great breakfast! The French toast was amazing oh and their cocktails!!!!’ The smoking gin and tonic was so special. Having to entrances - the main room door and access up the spiral stairs to the balcony was a great extra touch

PortugalAbsolutely fantastic from the first day to the last. Wonderful staff, welcoming and available that makes us feel like family. Located in front of the beach near everything, spectacular rooms. There is a diving team always available that we also recommend if you want to go diving. We highly recommend the meals at Watercolours! We don't know when we will come back but we will definitely stay here again. A big hug to all the staff

AustraliaIt’s a shame the penthouse doesn’t overlook the beach but as we had the terrace it was fine.
Perfect location right on the beach and only a 10minute walk from all the restaurants. The continental breakfast was great, we did upgrade and the pancakes and French toast were very tasty. The bedroom and bathroom were decorated nicely, shower was great. we had the penthouse and the terrace overlooking the beach was great for sunsets. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you.

Fantastic food and lovely cocktails (try "Dirty Mango"!!). I really hope to have the chance to return soon as it is in my "top ten" places I ever been.

PhilippinesThere is nothing not to like, there is no pool but that is no problem as the sea is 20 or 30 steps away and the waters are so clear and the sand so white it is idyllic.
This is a perfect boutique hotel with 6 rooms that are beautifully appointed and laid out, they do not mess about with the nonsense of bottled single use water and individual shampoo and bath wash. Their focus is you the customers and how to make you feel at home. The location is perfect in boat station 1 away from the noise and bustle of station 2.

Ocean front Dive Resort with bar and restaurant, excellent service, very well appointed rooms. Do not miss out if you are headed to Station 1 Boracay Island, we stayed in an ocean front room (more of a deluxe suite), that has very comfortable bed, beautifully appointed, I'm in love with the colors Orange and Blue, the design of the entire place, plus the so calming scent, has Flat screen TV, AC, modern ceiling fan, wardrobe, bathroom with tub, and vanity/working station. The menu has a great variety of food choices and the preparation made for superior tasting! All their staff were very attentive, accommodating, professional, and friendly. Everyone is very thoughtful and caring to insure that you are enjoying your stay. Keep up the great work - WaterColors Dive Resort. Have a very prosperous and successful season. Once again thank you! We'd definitely be back!!!
