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.).

ItalyThis place is absolutely incredible. You could not desire a better position than this. The private beach is unique, and you can also take a kayak or sup (prior a 50€ deposit) from the property. The apartment design is amazing, and you have all the facilities you need. Many compliments to the cleaning lady, we found every day a clean place with a good smell. I absolutely recommend this place.

SloveniaThere could be a few more towels available in the bathroom. Upon arrival, it would be good to explain how to operate the TV (and music). But these are minor details that do not affect the quality of the stay. The offer of breakfast would be welcome (perhaps at least for an extra charge). However, we were informed about this before the reservation.
LOCATION: Just a few kilometers from the airport along the main road (the noise is not disturbing). There are three apartments in the building, each on its own floor. In front of the apartments is a private beach, with three sun loungers and a shower available. If you rent a car, there are numerous beautiful beaches and restaurants nearby. EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR APPEARANCE AND EQUIPMENT: The building and apartments are new and furnished with an exceptional taste for aesthetics. All published photos show the actual state. One could even say that reality is even more beautiful than in the photos. The apartments are huge and can easily accommodate 3 adults. The apartment also has two separate bathrooms and toilets. The kitchen is fully equipped for meal preparation. Sugar, salt, and oil are also available, so there is no need to buy them. The coffee machine works on capsules. The apartment’s terrace is huge, the view of the beach and the sea is wonderful. Cleaning is daily, resulting in top-notch cleanliness. Each guest also gets a beach towel. Wi-Fi and air conditioning work excellently. OWNER or HOST RELATIONSHIP: Mr. Henri is a caring and friendly accommodation owner. The first communication starts already at the reservation, a few days before arrival he provides guests with numerous useful information related to the stay. All with the aim of providing the guest with the most unforgettable vacation. He is also happy to immediately answer all questions, advise and help with car rental reservations, excursions… He lives nearby and is always ready to help. For example, he tried to arrange a taxi ride to the restaurant for us and because there was none available at the moment, he came to pick us up and drove us to dinner himself. Otherwise, the owner is always reachable via WhatsApp.

FinlandWalking from villa and to for example shopping is very uncomfortable as there are no sidewalks. The outside shower could be cleaned from sand more often. But these were minor things for us.
We were staying at the 1st floor and it was amazing. We liked everything. The layout is very comfortable, clean, access to the beach, private, great staff. If we are back in Seyshelles we will stay here again.

United KingdomVery comfortable large apartment and extremely well furnished. The bed was super comfortable. Roda came each day to clean the apartment and towels and linen were changed every three days. We stayed in the 1st floor apartment, had a nice covered and shaded area to sit out on when either raining or just too hot, nice sun loungers also in this area. There were two showers both very modern and efficient. A great area for exploring the whole island if you have a car, good beach right in front of the apartments if you fancy an early morning or late evening dip! Located near some good restaurants, would reccomend The Green House, food was consistently good and staff were very welcoming.

The host was very nice and recommended us a lot of things to see and try on Mahé, also anwered quickly via Whatsapp whenever needed.

IsraelI can't point out a single thing to improve on.
The location - right on the ocean Wycliff and the cleaning ladies were very sweet and hospitable The kitchen had all the appliances/cutlery/crockery we could need Sun beds on the terrace, on the deck, on the sand. The host was very generous, we got both early check in and late check out. There were a lof of plugs, a lot of light.

AustriaJust two minor drawbacks: one of the main streets of the island is right behind the house and as especially the entry door has low-no noice insolation you hear the traffic quite loud (but fortunately just in the living room). Second: the wifi could be better. Its okay for surfing, but for VPN/work stuff it has a too high latency - I sometimes had to use mobile data instead. But maybe its just difficult to get fast internet around the area, and probably its better not to work here anyway ;). So both issues are just some comments for (maybe) even more improvement and nothing that would lead me not to give 10/10 stars. Everything else was spotless.
Very nice and new/modern apartment building with (almost private) beach. Good location, clean, friendly staff. Sad to leave and would definitely consider coming back here if coming back to the Seychelles in the future.

United KingdomWe couldn’t fault it.
We do not normally write reviews but had to for this place. Quite simply, it was exceptional and of the highest quality. The apartment was very clean and was cleaned daily. The staff were quite simply brilliant, friendly and very professional. The apartment itself is made of the best quality products and is our favourite building on the island. If we return, we’ll not bother looking for other places, we’ll return here for its quality, cleanliness, location and value for money. Thank you for making our honeymoon amazing. Also, it’s the best place on the island to see great fish when snorkelling, right on the beach.

AustriaEverything was great 😊
What can I say? It was just perfect! We checked in for a week, it was quite easy. The owner greeted us and we could pay in cash (EUR) because the fees at the ATM are quite high and it only dispenses Seychelles Rupees. The owner also added us on Whatsapp and gave us some recommendations. Whenever we had any questions we could just message him. The appartment itself was beyond amazing. Everything is completely new and the interior is modern. It's very clean and the balcony is big. We stayed in the first floor appartment which has a great view over the ocean. There is even a private beach which is completely empty. You can even borrow a standup paddle for free or a kanu. They are just there for you to take. WIFI works great and there is a TV with Netflix. Cleaning service is every day exept sundays. Even Nespresso coffee is provided every day for the Nespresso machine in the kitchen. The area in which the appartment is located is also great. Empty beaches, supermarkets and Takamaka Rum Distillery are all located within a few minutes by foot. However I recommend renting a car for your whole stay as you will neeed it to get around the island - the owner reccomended us a car rental service before we arrived and we booked in advance. If you are looking to stay in a quiet and private appartment I definetely recommend Bacova sur Mer!

RussiaSometimes there were problems with the Internet, probably related to the weather. But these are small things.
Great location of the house on the ocean with stunning views. There is a free parking where 3 rented cars can be safely accommodated. The room is very clean, has everything you need to relax comfortably. Fussy stuff, if necessary, you can wash clothes for free. In addition, they will also iron themselves. This is probably the best offer on the island.

Henry (the owner) was super friendly and always available to answer questions we had or make recommendations of things to do around. I’d recommend getting a car rental if you plan on staying there as it makes moving around super easy (Henry can also assist with this). There are a number of restaurants around you can order from or shops to buy stuffs. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Mahé.
