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.).

The facilities in the villa and in the apartment are great, you have everything you need, a kitchen for cooking yourself, a water dispenser, a balcony or terrace in most apartments. The owner is very friendly and helps with everything. General Luna is not far away, but you still have peace and quiet and you can rent a scooter very cheaply. The accommodation is also good if you are travelling with children and family. We would come back anytime.

United KingdomFront desk service / reception is only until 8 pm. It’s more convenient if front desk stays until later in the evening. There is no washing/drying machine to wash our swim wears especially for tourists who are staying for few weeks
The receptionist Biboy was a one-man team doing reception work, house tour and ensuring all guests are well taken care for. He was able to provide some kitchen utensils we required for cooking meals in the room. The grilling area near the entrance was also a brilliant place to dine if you are craving for sinugba!

South AfricaNothing much … the lower rooms are great but a bit dark so we tended to keep the light on. Aircon was quite noisy but very common all over phillipines. But overall fest value for what you are paying
If you are able to rent a motorbike (350 pesos/day) The location is lovely - quiet, local authentic - and a stone throw from the beach minus any tourists! And not far to busier more touristy General Luna. Note that Most Siargao beaches are nice golden sand but quite narrow and tend to have seaweed and rocks - Milano near Yayay is lovely but also has seaweed but no rocks. Secret beach is just 2km along and lovely and calm amd not overly busy for a day of suntanning or exploring the mangroves. We loved that we could walk to 3 restaurants for a reasonable priced meal. Particularly enjoyed Bajalala hostel for a change (great Indian dinners) amd yummy coffee and breakfasts for about 250 pesos. And to ride into busier General Luna is onky a 5-10 min ride depending on how far up to cloud 9 you need to go. We loved enjoying GL then heading home to yayay for the peace and tranquility! B-boy and Yaya are lovely - all the staff are! They are present to attend to any Enquires all day. There is a great laundry 2 mins down the road (260 pesos for 8kg; same day service). Everything you need and great value for the price!

IrelandDue to the rain, there were a few bugs in our apartment. However, the staff were doing everything they could to deal with this issue and kept checking in to see if everything was okay.
We really loved our stay here! It was 10 minutes to drive to general luna and just meters away from a beautiful beach. Biboy and his family went above and beyond to make sure we were enjoying our stay. They even visited us to join them while they were having their family lunch. Definitely recommend staying here.
