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.).

SwitzerlandThe only "negative" thing is that the water in the shower was always quiet warm and not getting cold. But it was not a problem at all and I am sure they can fix it quite easily.
Great hotel to enjoy Koh Lipe, very convenient location close to the walking street, restaurants and Taxi bikes. The beach in front of the hotel dont have any boat parked so you can enjoy the nice view and quiet from the pool or the beach restaurant. They have a few pools so they are all quiet and not too crowded. Also the room and facility is clean and well maintained.

United KingdomStrong smell of sewage located outside the resort near our apartment.
Short walk along the beach for Walking Street which is the main street for shopping and restaurants. Fabulous pool about 50 meters long- great for length swimming. Seafood offered on the beach restaurant in the evening.

New ZealandThe speed boat mafia are not that good. They are a rough bouncy squashed hot bus fast boat. If you are pregnant, elderly, had breast surgery recently or have week knees or can't climb well on steps, the speed boat mafia are not for you. The speed boat mafia are rough and bouncy. They have a slower airconditioned ferry at pakbar harbour on the mainland, but it is parked up so speedboat mafia make more money...
Pools were better at times than beach water. Service and roooms were excellent and large.

United KingdomThat I couldn’t stay longer
From the moment I arrived I was treated like a very dear friend. The staff are so polite and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble and any requests are delivered with a genuine smile. I’d like to not that May and Fit from the pool bar were exemplary members of staff who looked after us so well, they helped us with our Thai pronunciation, chatted with us and delivered a wonderful service, they’re a credit to the establishment. The villa was spectacular and I can’t fault it in any way, spotlessly clean and comfortable, absolute luxury. The hotel facilities are exceptional from the pool bar and restaurant to the gym swimming pool. The Akira is a large hotel, but doesn’t feel like it, sun beds by the pool are available and tables on the beach for a BBQ dinner in the evening are also accessible at short notice. The beach is gorgeous and the hotel is a short walk from the pier and walking street. Let the hotel know when your arrival time is and staff will meet you at the pier to help with your bags.

SwitzerlandThe breakfast was fairly pedestrian. Too many longtails on the beach but that's just because of where it is. games room and gym was tired.
We loved the wash cloths mad into the shape of little rabbits. The room was up to date and clean. Pool access room was impeccable. what's not to like about a swim up bar. entertainment was but on with the beach BBQ usually a two piece band.

MalaysiaThe only disappointment I experienced was during a breakfast incident. As we were a group of 4 (2 adults & 2 kids) on vacation, I took 4 bananas with the intention of consuming them later. However, the staff informed me that all breakfast items were to be consumed in the restaurant and not taken away. This left me somewhat disappointed, as I was not taking away any perishable foods or pastries, but simply 4 pieces of banana.
I enjoyed the spaciousness and cleanliness of the room. The staff were extremely helpful and addressed all of my questions. Additionally, the resort's location was excellent, being only a 5-minute walk from Walking Street.

TaiwanThere is nothing that we didn't like. Everything was amazing, perfect, and much better than we even expected!
I have stayed at many hotels before and Akira totally blew us away. The staff were so friendly and helpful and always greeted us with a smile while passing by. We had the Pool Access room which was perfect for taking a swim while also having drinks on the balcony after the sun went down. The room is spacious with a huge bathroom that also had a tub. The breakfast was amazing with plenty of options. The best part was that there were different dishes every morning so we never got bored of eating the same food over and over again. We only ate at the hotel's restaurant on the first night, because the Walking Street is only 5 minutes walk away along the beach with many options of Thai and Western restaurants. I would most definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for accommodation on the beautiful island of Koh Lipe.
