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 KingdomThere was a bit of a walk (about 20 mins) into the main English Harbour area, but it wasn't too bad. The drive to the top apartment is pretty steep, but you get used to it.
The views and the peaceful location of Villa Touloulou were fantastic - as were the array of birds who'd often join us on the balcony for breakfast, the bananaquits being our favourites.

United KingdomNothing Yes the track up to the property is a bit pot holey, but so is the whole of Antigua!! Just drive slowly around them - it’s part of the fun!
How lucky were we to find this gem? Warmly greeted at the agreed time by lovely Calvin who showed us around and helped with restaurant and beach suggestions. The apartment is beautifully furnished. We were on the top floor and the veranda and view was to die for. Beautiful sunsets while preparing dinner in the outdoor kitchen. Ten to fifteen minutes walk to nearest restaurant. It is uphill right at the end, but that is a small price to pay for the magnificent view. Nice little touches like the very welcome cold beers and juice in the fridge. Also milk, tea, coffee and sugar. Two beach chairs and beach towels came in very handy. We thoroughly recommend. Thank you very much for a lovely stay.

United KingdomThe only real issue is the poor condition of the road that needs to be driven up to reach the villa but we appreciate that's not something that is within the hosts' control.
The villa is well equipped and in a very convenient location. The entire accomodation is much larger than we initially expected. There is pretty much everything you need for a stay there and the hosts are always willing to help with any questions. Their responses are immediate! We stayed on the ground floor, therefore, the view at the harbour was somehow limited but still very relaxing to sit down in the evening and enjoy a drink. The nearest beach was GAlleon Beach and it was our absolute favourite - we kept going back there multiple times throughout our stay. The beach offers everything you need from Antigua - sand, snorkeling, great food and drinks. Our flight back was at 8pm and the host allowed us to check out late which was a perfect way to end our beautiful honeymoon. Thank you. We would happily return.

United KingdomThe only downside was the track leading to the apartment car park. There were several pot-holes but we're used to those in the UK!
The view was excellent from our top floor apartment. Helpful and friendly manager made us most welcome. The villa exceeded our expectations. Favourite beach was Pigeon Point. Top meal at Catherine's but a little ££.

United StatesThere was little to not like about our stay. The only issue we had was that one side of the bed did have a dip in it but this was extremely minor in the grander scheme of things.
The rooms at Villa Touloulou were larger than expected. With ample space to sit out on the patio and relax while eating breakfast. The host was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the area and helped us with all our questions and requests.

United KingdomThe dirt track leading to the property could be an issue in the dark to navigate and especially when it rained as parts of it would become flooded . Also it would be helpful to have a direction sign to the Villa from the main road , it took us a little while when we arrived to find the right turn off . As the property is up a little hill and a 20 minute walk or so away from the main Harbour Town area to the bars and restaurants some guests might find access / getting around difficult without a car . We like to walk so for us walking to and from town and to the Beach etc was not an issue . Public transport is very limited on the Island so without a car it is difficult to get around and explore more of the Island .
Facilities in the apartment , lovely grounds and excellent customer service .

United KingdomNothing to dislike! We couldn't recommend this place more!
Beautiful building which is close to Nelson's Dockyard. Views were amazing and the rooms very spacious/comfortable. Calvin and Christophe were wonderfully attentive hosts - especially Calvin who was always happy to help if needed and gave us great restaurant recommendations/ activities to do. They would also provide us with fresh fruit from the property's own garden (limes, pineapple, mangoes and advocado). They truly made our time more enjoyable and comfortable and we would definitely stay again!

United StatesOur little rental car couldn't make it up the hill to the top parking lot but getting up the stairs from the lower parking lot wasn't bad.
The location of Villa Toulou is great - it's only a 5-minute drive to Nelson's Dockyard national part, which was a big draw for us. It's also close to several restaurants. It's on a hill, though, which makes mornings nice and quiet. Calvin, the property manager, was there to greet us as was available to answer any questions we had and gave us restaurant suggestions, too. I would definitely stay here again!

The villa had an excellent view of the harbor, and the rooms were clean and spacious, with well-shaded outdoor seating to stay out of the sun while lounging. AC in the bedroom worked great. The manager, Calvin was very friendly and attentive and had pre-stocked some essentials (milk, tea, juice, bottled water) for us when we arrived.
