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 StatesSmokers out on the deck area. Couldn't get away from them as they sat under the awning and smoke blew toward us almost everytime we went out there.
The location is perfect--in the center of St. George Island. Restaurants, bars, stores all within walking distance. Plus the beach access and view from the deck is superb. The pool is in an ideal location.

United StatesI could really handle there being a broom and dustpan in every room, we had to go to the front desk to ask to borrow it. They also do not come in your room and sweep or change the trash so we had to take our own trash out. We have spent four days or a week there are multiple times and this part is really inconvenient. It would be really nice if someone would come in and sweep the room everyday because we are beachfront and there is going to be sand, and if somebody were to take the trash out and take out the dirty towels and provide clean towels. Otherwise, it's very worth the cost and the experience is high level.
I am just in love with the Buccaneer. This place is wonderful for family, can fit into a budget, and is walking distance from anything you would need. The small island feel of Saint George island is something that keeps me coming back multiple times a year. The Buccaneer is old but it has been redone pretty well. Yes I think they could purchase some new beds that would be more comfortable, and I wish there were more kitchenettes available. However, it's beachfront with pool and it's walking distance from the park and basketball court, the lighthouse, restaurants, ice cream, stores for souvenirs. It's just wonderful and I would recommend it to anyone.

CanadaWe were thinking you. Might like to check how slowly to the toilet flushes: seems to take along time and a lot of water. And the faucet on the sink is hard to completely turn off.. it wants to drip. The little fridge is missing the racks on the door which would have made it better to use.
The location on the wonderful beach was exactly right for us: we were so happy to have sun a view from our room and a quick few steps to the beach and such a great place to walk !

United StatesThey had a big Masonic group staying there. In the adjoining room to ours, the men had their tv on all night and you could hear it through the walls. When they checked out, I was finally able to get a good night’s sleep. They need some sort of dehumidifier for the rooms, the floor was wet and nothing would dry in the room. Bathroom was very small. The room smelled of disinfectant/bleach mixed with mildew. The cupboard with dishes had a strong odor of old paint. We usually don’t spend a lot of time in our room when on vacation, so the location to the beach made up for it. The bed was okay, had a small couch, tv and laminate booth style dining area with a small kitchenette with a mini fridge. We ate out most meals because it was not conducive to cooking. No coffee pot in the room! But they did have coffee in the office till 11:00 am. I won’t stay there again, but I will go back to SGI! It’s a beautiful island on the forgotten coast.
The ability to be right on the gulf side of the island and walk out to a private beach was amazing. Walking distance to restaurants and the lighthouse.
