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.).

SingaporeI would have expected the room sizes to be slightly bigger given the price, but other facilities kind of compensated for it, so not much to complain about.
I liked the facilities and the staff the most. Everything went smooth from start to end. Cleanliness was top notch and location is great if you want to stay away from the Patong party kind of areas while not being too distant from it. There are also some good restaurants within walking distance of 15 mins from the resort.

Saudi ArabiaThere is a lot of safety concerns about the hotel, there are many areas where kids or even adults can fall and get hurt badly so please scan the areas and stay vigilant with your kids around those areas and balconies
Definitely coming back the next time, pools are fantastic, food is great, great beach and beach access unlike most resorts in Phuket, for a family with kids I would say this is one of the top options and you would not need to go out much but please read the problems

United KingdomLots of European holiday makers throwing down towels on sunbeds and reserving them all day despite being seemingly elsewhere.
Sheer size of the hotel, offering many beautiful pools and stone throw to the beach. I wanted to watch prem football that kicked off at 2:15am and the staff kept the TV ready for me and turned it on for me alone to watch through till 430am. Was excellent of them. Location is excellent for walking to nearby restaurants, massage and grocery shops along with taxis just outside for short trip to Patong.

SingaporeWe wanted the freedom to take or leave breakfast, so didn't book in advance. At nearly double the cost and expensive to have a just a croissant and (poor) coffee that didn't have our desired oat milk, it made us choose more often than not to head out of the hotel for breakfast. Also, they should really have fans for the outside area restaurant. Rude and intoxicated Russian guests.
Number of pools, friendly staff who managed to deal with the other quite rude and/or intoxicated Russian guests.

SingaporeThe staff at reception were always uptight. No flexibility. Even when we asked for water bottles in room, they came in to check if we were given 4 bottles for the day, they actually came inside the room to check. Almost as if we can't have more water! Never have we experienced this in 5 star hotels. We stayed in pullman naithon after this, there the staff were a lot friendlier and accommodating and much less fussy over such little things.
Big resort lots of opem spaces and swimming pools. Beach is just behind the hotel across the road. Room was very nice.

OmanAccess with a buggy is difficult. Wheelchair users would find it impossible with steps everywhere and ramps only available in some areas. The places with ramps were either extremely steep or out of the way and difficult to find. Some ramps were fine with a buggy but would be inaccessible to someone with a wheelchair or limited mobility. The hotel is very tired, and thankfully, they seem to have begun renovations under the new brand. We opted for no breakfast so we could eat out each morning, which was a mistake on my part. Finding restaurants open nearby before 10A.M. was difficult. The restaurants in the hotel are extortionately expensive for food, which is good but by no means amazing. One accepts hotel prices will be higher for meals but not 3 or 4 times the price of the restaurants outside. Drinks were extremely dear. The receptionist tried to strongarm me into buying breaklast at the beginning of our trip at a reduced rate. Otherwise, I would have to pay far more. Thankfully, I didn't, as we had the buffet in Buon Appetito the first morning, and it was pretty rubbish. We ate in the Italian poolside resteraunt on the final morning for convenience, and it was the polar opposite and really good. How can two buffet breakfasts in the same hotel under the same F&B team be so far apart?! The rooms are quite dark with a lot of dark wood. Lighting is poor, which is made worse by all of the dark wood. Rooms are very dated, and we battled with ants every day. Having something as simple as a bag of chips or some fruit in the room would have an ant attack if left down open for more than an hour. Ironically, I live in a country with a similar climate and ant issues, and I arranged for my home to be treated while away. It is an easy and quite inexpensive. If I can get my home treated, why can't you have a hotel done too? The shuttle bus service is a pain.
Good selection of pools. Pretty central to Kata and Karon beach. Friendly staff who are always helpful. The ladies in the Karon Cafe made such an effort to say hello to our little one by name every time we passed, never mind entered the café! A small thing but very much appreciated. Nice grounds with wildbirds and a sense of calm in the hectic surroundings of Phuket. Easy to get sunbeds at the pool which large generous sized towels available.

United KingdomPrice for food and drink in the hotel are crazy (250 baht for a can of beer vs. 39 baht per can in a supermarket). Lots of guests bringing in food and drink, unsurprisingly. Need some rubbish bins around hotel grounds.

United StatesWe realize no place is perfect. My wife had the Pad See Ew twice in Thai Thai and it had little to no flavor. It is possible the chef misunderstood her food allergies and took all the spices out. Although she has it all the time in the states from different restaurants with no issues. At times, the AC had issues keeping the room cool. We realize there were some extremely hot and humid days. Also, ordered filet mignon steak for room service. Got a call back they were out. Asked for the NY strip instead. Got the ribeye at twice the price and it was a poor (fatty and gritty) piece of meat and missing the fries. Highly disappointing. Wanted to call to complain about it and my wife asked me not to. The chair in our room was not comfortable and we had to work to not slip out of it. Elevators and some restrooms were stifling hot.
Breakfast was good. However, the consistency and availability of certain foods was up and down during our visit. The staff was excellent. The Spa services were excellent. Nice choice of pools. Open air lobby, lounges and restaurants were beautiful. A peaceful place to relax and unwind.
