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.).

The most peaceful and beautful place i've been in a while. The bungalows are set under the shade of the fern trees, just a few meters from a beach that continues for seveeral miles in both directions. The owners are wonderful people and made us feel very welcomed here. The natural energy here is healing :)

Beds are confortable and rooms are very clean. Suggested for relaxing in a very unique atmosphere. No wifi available No air conditioning but in the room there is a fan and it was fine.

FinlandThe only thing i miss is a small fridge to keep the water bottles cold, but that is no big deal.
This was my fourth time here and I love it very much! The best place to stay if you visit Koh kho khao. Very friendly staff and great food (you pay a little bit more but it is worth it)! Such a cosy and relaxing place.

United KingdomThe only thing I would change is to stay longer next time.
The location is perfect, with km of beautiful beach in each direction. The bungalows are considerately designed, and surrounded by carefully tended gardens. The staff are all amazing, attentive, smiling all the time; they seem to love being at Hapla as much as the guests do.

ChinaThe food was a bit pricey but I think that makes sense given that the rooms are quite cheap. I trust they’re doing what makes sense for them business wise. Oh, but the coffee really could be much better.
I loved the simplicity of the cottages, the amazingly kept grounds, the big trees, the entrance, the tasty food, the amazingly attentive staff and owners, the proximity to Phuket and the airport without having the feel of the big resorts AT ALL. I liked the ferry ride and the boats. I just loved this place so much.

The tranquility and garden are superb! I’ve been here before and I came once again. The beach and the restaurant are also good. This is not the most clearest water beach I have ever seen but it’s kinda untouched feeling. Natural and minimal.

A paradise place. Very lovingly managed resort. Very well maintained, clean and decorated with many beautiful details. Extremely friendly staff. I would give 15 points as a rating. It's hard to say goodbye, but I'll definitely come back. Many thanks to everyone for this wonderful stay.

New ZealandWe didn't know that the ' island ' is very quiet but it turned out to be really good.
Hapla Beach Cottage exceeded our expectations in terms of being peaceful, quiet and comfortable. We felt at home and enjoyed the remote location. The food is very good & so are the drinks / fresh juices. The staff are friendly and attentive. We could happily return :)

Czech RepublicWe were sorry to find out that the prices in the restaurant were double to averadge prices anywhere else. And the portions are on the small side.
It is a beautiful place. It's quiet, romantic, clean, relaxing... If your dream is to have a beach just to yourself it won't be a problem here. Kids: I was worried our small children would get bored as there is no pool, no playground. But there are crabs (so many!), beach toys, hammocks... our kids were perfectly happy here.

SwedenThe food is by far the best on the Island but a little pricy. Would be nice with a discount (maybe 30%) for us that stay at Hapla. many other come here to eat since the food is so good.
superb facilities and location. the bungalows are very fresh with fan and clean. nice comfortable beds (not to hard). Everything is right on the beach with trees and hammocks (hang mats) everywhere. Such a lovely place. the beach is endless and almost no one there. One of few places still like this in Thailand. The best food on the Island and among the best we have had in Thailand.

United KingdomThe only minor criticism if you can call it that is the rooms do not have AC which was fine in the most part, but if it became any hotter or the wind dropped I struggled with the heat however in the early hours the breeze from the sea cooled the room down nicely. Beds are similar to many Thai hotel beds which is very very hard.
Everything to like about this property. It's clean it's not expensive, it is away from the crowds, the beach is beautiful, it is almost like having 10km of private beach. This is like holidaying in the Maldives but for a fraction of the price. Don't forget the ferry stops at 6.30pm to get you on the island. Staff are very nice albeit my ignorance of the Thai language was a bit of a barrier but they helped me muddle through any order 👌. There are few comments regarding the food being expensive. Yes compared to street food it is I suppose. Compared to European/US prices it is very very well priced and please don't leave home if you are going to moan about paying £6-10 for a meal 😂.
