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.).

United StatesThe Host is fabulous! The studio apartment was very spacious. Kitchen had everything to make a variety of meals. There was parking for our rental car. Wash machine in the unit for laundry, with hanging outside to dry. Quiet at night! Our unit had seating outback to view the lagoon. You cross the street you are on the beach, you walk to the back of the building you are at the lagoon. A 2 minute walk to the Ferry to go to the city. Great memories from our stay at the Barracuda!

Fantastic location - very convenient for the ferry to the city, easy access to the airport, and right by the beautiful beach. Plenty of bars and restaurants near by, small grocery shop too. Marco (Host) is very friendly, provided all the information about the apartment and places worth visiting. Overall, great and successful stay!

Third visit here for us! Marcos is an excellent host and the accommodation is perfect for a break. The location is superb - feet away from the Ria Formosa and beach. Short walk to the low key nightlife of bars and restaurants, and ferry to Faro Town. Accommodation is clean and comfortable.

Ideal position for ferry to faro and walks on nature reserve to see flamingos. Ate at Snack bar next to Rrudys and the food was excellent with very reasonable prices

United KingdomMore restaurants within close proximity. Nothing else.
The excellent Host (Marcos) couldn't be more kinder and helpful. The position - Metres away from the beautiful Atlantic Beach on one side and the picturesque lagoon on the other with canoeing and windsurfing to watch or take part. Walking distance to coffee bars and restaurants. Close proximity to frequent ferry crossings to Faro Old Town.
