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.).

United KingdomIt is a great hotel but I wished it had an easier access to swimming in the beach
The staff was amazing, so friendly and professional. It is a beautiful hotel but knowing more now about the distance to the main town and also about the tide and the beach I would have chosen a different location.

IndiaThe fridge in the room just didn't work despite us asking several times. The breakfast could do with some variety for guests who stay for a longer period
We liked that the property is close to Nungwi but away from the madness. The jetty bar really stands out... perfect spot for a sundowner. The staff were amazing! There was a good variety with the buffets and food was generally good. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable.

United KingdomSometimes staff were unable to assist either because they didnt know how or perhaps were afraid of breaking rules? I'm not sure of the reason but this was the only negative in an otherwise amazing stay.
Super friendly and helpful staff. Great food. Lovely room. The jetty was spectacular. A corner of Nungwi away from the crowds.

United KingdomThey charge Western prices for drinks....and the pool although large and clean could probably do with a bit of an upgrade.
There was very little to fault about this place. We had villa/room 16 which had an amazing view of the ocean - at night you could see fire flies on the rocks! The room was lovely and spacious, very clean, huge bed. We got replenished with water, tea/coffee and towels etc every morning and and evening and everything was super clean. We went half board which I recommend because the food is outstanding and there are not too many restaurants around. All the staff were friendly and really tried hard to make our stay special.

United Arab EmiratesThe location was not that great, with no beach access. The hotel does provide a free shuttle to the nearest beach. Some maintenance and better care for the villa is required. But overall, I was satisfied.
We were a group of friends and took the 4 bedroom villa. The atmosphere was amazing and the staff even more. The villa itself was very cozy with an amazing vibe. The hotel is more suitable for couples though, but we had a good time.

Omanthe hotel location is not optimal as the beach is rocky so you have to travel to arrive to a better beach. this hotel is Nugwi which is remote from the rest of Zanzibar but that shouldn’t be an issue if you combine it with a few days stay in stone town.
the hotel entertainment at night is great. the staff were nice and helpful. the place is nice and safe. it was a really enjoyable part of our trip to Zanzibar.
