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 StatesThe property is rather isolated. Some folks will miss ammenities like restaurants and night life right outside their door but if you are more into nature (like my family is) this might be a great fit.
This property is located in a pretty isolated part of the island - near the southern tip of the island and the furthest southern point of the United States. We have stayed here twice in the last few years. The property is very clean, modern and well maintained and we enjoyed using the outdoor pool, hot tub. It is only a half mile of the famous Black Sand Beach and its many sea turtles and only a 30 minute drive to the visitor center at Volcanoes National Park. As an amateur astronomer I especially appreciated the dark skies and viewing celestial wonders that can't be seen from my home in Michigan.

United StatesNothing! We love it:)
What a lovely location on the quieter side of Big Island!! All we heard most of the was the ocean waves, birds and the wind blowing gently. No planes, boats and hardly a car went by. Very beautiful ocean views, lovely balcony in our condo, all we could need in the condo to prepare meals. We will definitely consider staying here again and have recommended it to family members.

United StatesThe only thing I didn't like was I had to leave and come back to Oahu. Big Island is calm, spread out and was like going back in time. You must do your own house keeping, but it was pleasure to keep it neat. Loved the condo. It had everything I need. I cooked several good meals. Nice dishes and pots and pans. Even baking stuff...
The location is between Hilo & Kona. Hawaii Belt Road is a beautiful Drive from either location. Upon arrival I was so impressed with the ocean and mountain views. The condo sit on a old golf course and you can walk the fairway and I found little trail to the beach below the unit. Wow. Perfect get away. Wonderful Pool and Lava Rock Jacuzzi Wow. There is a little bakery with some food service and great sweet treats about 8 miles away, but its suggest to bring in food. I had plenty and so enjoy this location.

United StatesHot tub is a little too cold. Please heat it to 102F. The Golf course that the units overlook has been abandoned since COVID, and is no longer a functioning Golf course: the Greens are no longer maintained. and brush is starting to take over. However is not owned/managed by Sea Mountain, so the Resort is not at fault. But they could choose to maintain it a bot: it would look better of at least the fairways were mowed once every 6 weeks.
Pool is nice.

United StatesVery convenient, airy, spacious condos in a tropical setting near a beautiful black sand beach, very quiet, connected to nature, remote (bring your food!) Most units have spectacular view of the ocean, ours did not, but we had a partial view of the ocean over a lush garden, which was still very pleasant and so relaxing.
