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.).

SloveniaI could write an essay about our stay in Casal dos Capelinhos, because it was the best stay we ever had. From the start to finish, everything was beyond perfection. The location, the room, the views just incredible! What made this place special were people there, we adore every single one of them. They made us feel like home and we were very sad when we had to go. Me and my family will come back for sure, and for a longer period next time, because this place made us feel relaxed and we enjoyed it so much. Casal dos Capelinhos is very secure, the property is very big and beautiful. There is fruit garden below the main house and we were enjoying oranges and mandarines everyday. One of the most special things about this place is the food. We had breakfast and dinner everyday and it was just so good. I can not express how awesome and delicious all the food was. Marlene, the chef, she is the sweetest and let me tell you, she knows how to cook. While writing this review, we are just checking when can we come back. :)

United StatesWe absolutely LOVED our stay at the Casal dos Capelinhos - Douro! From the location of the beautiful, modern quinta, the friendly, professional, & very charming staff, to the food & wine offered on site, we had such a wonderful & relaxing time during our stay. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND staying at this place. Having only eight rooms available in a variety of sizes, the rooms are set into small clusters with an emphasis on privacy & a small indoor space & loads of little outdoor spaces to enjoy a glass of wine, lounge by the pool, all while being surrounded by an active vineyard. Visitors can schedule a wine tasting, or wander through the vineyard & experience a true working quinta. I’m almost hesitant to write this review, because I know it means that the secret is out!

United StatesThe 2 bed room unit is hard to access requiring you to use a narrow spiral staircase. Harder with a baby. Wish they had an area with microwave for our baby’s oatmeal. We wish we could have interacted more with the owner who live on premise.
Friendly Staff, beautiful grounds and setting, amazing dinner and breakfast, yummy port wine and homemade olive oil and jam. Funny chihuahua vineyard dog named Kenny.

Location is amazing! Its in the vineyards. Stuff was very friendly. Lady from the reception booked a dinner for us in the near town, we just chose a place from a list of her recomendations and she did a call. We had a wine tasting in the property. Same lady explained to us about Douro region and wines. There is a walking track in the vineyards with QR codes. Breakfast was amazing.

PortugalZERO things.
Can't even start to describe how at home we felt in this place. Tomás and Miguel, our hosts made us feel special. Their suggestions were awesome and their stories highly entertaining. Pedro, the wine maker, made us taste an amazing vintage port and some other awesome wines. The wine dispenser was awesome! The chef Marlene and Isabel made our breakfast and dinner experience unforgettable. We had bookings in other restaurants and ended up canceling them all to eat their incredible creative meals. Will be back soon and will suggest it to all my friends. Kenny the dog was also a highlight. Gorgeous:)

SwitzerlandLocated in the midst of a little town in the Douro Valley, the property is just stunning, has amazing views, amenities, a great pool, and they understand how to make one feel welcome and pampered. Staff are very friendly and helpful, and did an amazing job at accommodating individual needs. One of the days, when we had an early start planned, they provided a stunning and yum take-away breakfast pack. Our room was very nicely designed and furnished. Great A/C as well. Breakfast was freshly and mostly home-made with plenty of fresh food. One can ask for on-the spot eggs in various shapes and forms if wanted. The pre-booked dinner on our arrival day was absolutely amazing; four abundant and very yum courses served on the terrace. A 1.5 hour wine tasting of their own-produced wine and port was another great opportunity to get ti know the property and the surroundings. All in all a real treat!

The owners are passionate about their country and their terroir. They are especially accommodating and attentive to your expectations. We were able to enjoy a delicious home-made supper with garden products on a Fado background. The wine tasting was both oenological and poetic. I highly recommend this place if you want to recharge your batteries, drink well, eat well and sleep well.
