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.).

BelgiumI had a wonderful stay at the Villa Face Mer Appartement in Praslin, thanks to the excellent host, Arnaud. He speaks English and French fluently, which made communication seamless for me. The location of the villa near the beach is breathtaking, and the view from the balcony overlooking the beach is simply amazing Arnaud went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating, providing me with great tips and insights about the area. His friendly and welcoming demeanor made us feel right at home. The villa itself was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay. The proximity to the beach was a definite plus, and I enjoyed the tranquility of the surroundings. I can't recommend Arnaud and Villa Face Mer Appartement enough. If you're looking for a fantastic place to stay in Praslin with a host who truly cares about your experience, look no further, Thank you, Arnaud, for your hospitality and for making my stay memorable!

HungaryParking space is not the same as on the pictures - multiple houses have built behind the villa and you are parking here and there where you can. Some solar powered small lamps would be nice at the parking area as it can be really dark after sunset and parking is difficult after a long day. I also recommend to book the apartment on the 1st floor if you can, as the villa is next to the main street.
The villa was very huge and comfortable, clean - same as on the pictures, good quality for the price. The host and his family is really nice - early checkin was allowed us after letting the host know in advance, which was a huge plus for relaxed and safe first day on Praslin. We also got a detailed guidiance and tips about Praslin when we arrived which was amazing. The morning view to the sea was amazing.

SwedenThe Villa Face Mer exceeded our expectations. Very clean, well equipped and the terrace was amazing. Good with two bathrooms located one for each bedroom. We hade the apartment on the groundlevel which has a nice garden. The host Arnaud, was very helpful and informed us about beaches good for swimming, snorkling, restaurants, take aways, supermarkets etc. Always with a smile. We do think it is helpful to rent a car while on Praslin as it is much to explore and for shopping etc. We rent a car on Arnauds advice by Solace car rental, which Arnaud helped us with. Tessier the owner of Solace was also very helpful and everything with the car worked perfect. We very much recommend to stay at the Villa!

GermanyThe terrace of the Villa is really gorgeous. As many reviewers say, you cannot really swim in front of the Villa, but the view at sunrise and sunset is very beautiful. The Villa is also quite close to Anse Lazio, by far the best beach of Praslin. The street outside is not very noisy, unless some cars playing loud music pass by. It did not bothered us. The Villa is well equipped and has everything you need. Arnaud organized a rental car for us, which worked perfectly, and gave us useful suggestions for our stay.

United KingdomNothing major - but washing detergent in a salt mug could be risky, very limited welcome stuff, and rusty drying frames mark clothes.
Wonderful position - Almost perfect; superb beach (one of many), quiet road to all parts of the island. Lovely balcony. Showers spacious and spotless Friendly and well informed host. Great Excursions including Curieuse. Mama's takeaway close by and a real find. Raffles beach bar close and great if you want to push the boat out.

GermanyWe stayed at Villa Face Mer for five nights and enjoyed it immensely. The apartment is spacious, clean and very well equipped. The location is fantastic - right opposite the beautiful Anse Possession beach. Arnaud is a very kind owner. He went out of his way to make our trip a most pleasurable one, giving us lots of advice regarding where to go, what to do, where to shop and where to eat. We fell in love with our spacious, comfortable accommodation with two bedrooms and balcony overlooking the sea. We'd definitely recommend this place, and would stay again.
