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 KingdomOur bed and pillows were really uncomfortable, to the point we struggled to get to sleep every night. We’d stay in a different room next time for a nicer bathroom.
Jose & Sarah the owners were so lovely and welcoming! The property is located just outside of Tavira which was a short, easy car journey away. The whole property was exceptionally clean and beautifully designed, very relaxing environment with friendly staff.

United KingdomThe jacuzzi bath in the room was out of order and the shower in the bath was ok but not as good as a walk in shower. My recommendation would be to replace the bath with a large rain shower
There are so many things to love about this property. We stayed in the Master Suite in Casa des Artes and it was spacious for the 2 of us and our 14 year old son. It was immaculately cleaned each day. The breakfast was excellent - amazing home made cakes and Portuguese egg tarts and wonderful fresh fruit. The swimming pool was a good size allowing lane swimming which is a big plus for me as I swim regularly and hotel pools are often very disappointing. Jose and Sara were fantastic hosts - nothing too much trouble. We had an issue with our booking which was resolved very satisfactorily. Finally the location was perfect allowing us to explore the coast and nearby towns each day. I would highly recommend the Quinta to anyone looking for a very special place to stay. We hope to visit again in the future. Thank you Sara and Jose

PortugalThe only thing to point out would be the fragility of the shower in our Cabin, as water leaked quite easily.
Quinta de Santa Margarida is a beautiful and peaceful place, we found it very pleasant and as a couple, very romantic. Location-wise it’s great! The breakfast was also incredible and very fresh, with a big variety of things to choose from. The staff was always very accommodating, nice, and helpful.

PortugalWhat’s there not to like?
Quinta de Santa Margarida for sure was the greatest discovery of 2023! This place is absolutely gorgeous! The Quinta itself is very spacious. You have a beautiful garden surrounding the rooms, with a lot of nooks for you to chill and enjoy the lovely weather of Algarve. It’s a gated area, which makes you feel safe at all times. You can walk freely without any worry that a stranger will come through. There’s an amazing salted water pool and a smaller one for the kids. More than enough for the 15 rooms/suites. The suite that I’ve chosen (Terrace) was absolutely gorgeous. Very spacious, nicely arranged, we’ll decorated and impeccably clean at all times. It has all the main necessities for a nice staying in Algarve. The breakfast was very nice! A lot of options and variety, plus, the owners were always very sweet with any special needs for the guests ! You may ask for almost anything (lactose free, vegan etc) they would always try to accommodate your needs and requirements. Last but not least, for sure the owners and the staff were lovely too! I have to say that it is for sure a nice breeze of fresh air to see two people so dedicated to their guests. Always very present and helpful with any necessities of mine. They have the best recommendations for this area of Algarve when it comes to restaurants, places to visit and activities to do. Besides all that, they were always very easily contacted. The rest of the staff were delightful, always super nice and sweet to everyone. Truly recommend this place, it’s an hidden gem in Tavira!

Breakfast was 10/10, Jose and Sara go out of their way to make it perfect and delicious. Variety of eggs, meats, cheese, cereals. Much more than a continental breakfast. It was a special way to start every morning. The property was perfectly groomed, new and done with beautiful taste. It was a calm and peaceful place to spend 5 days with amazing access to Tavira and the beautiful beaches nearby. Sara and Jose were always available for recommendations on beaches, restaurants and went out of their way to help us get a last minute rental car. We enjoyed some beautiful wine and the snacks they prepared were always special and above what we asked for. The visit and the hosts were so enjoyable we cannot wait to come back!
