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.).

Czech RepublicFrankly and honestly with some minor nuances, which I do not even want to mention, this property operates like it should be. One gets what he pays for and, this is what matters.
No breakfast is provided and we hadn't expected any. We used to cook ours and, we have no problems with that. From our perspective (calm and nice!) the location is perfect. Thanks God, we are fully functional (physically, I mean) and we walk everywhere. The most important for us is the Beach access and, from that location one has several options within 500-800m. Perfect!

United KingdomToo expensive for what it is. I understand that Barbados is very expensive in general, but almost 2k € for 7 nights is pretty steep. For an apartment. No breakfast, no pick-up service, no mosquito spray in the room, etc.

United KingdomThe resort is about 15 min walk from beaches, shops, bars etc, and it can be a hot walk. Need to factor that into your plans for the day if you don’t have a car. Each room has a lovely balcony but the layout of the resort means they don’t catch much breeze, even late at night, and there is no real view, other than over the pool.
Rooms are modern, clean , well equipped and very comfortable. Large pool with plenty of loungers and room for all. Fellow guests were all very friendly and management/owners very approachable

United Arab EmiratesIt felt that the price was a little expensive for a hotel so far from shops and restaurants. Would be great if they had a little shop for water and snacks.
Really friendly hotel with great staff and good facilities. Our room (the 2 bedroom) was well designed and perfect for a family. We had good kitchen facilities, a great washer / dryer, and very comfy beds.

United KingdomIf you don't have a hire car it is a good 20 minute walk to the supermarket so that's not ideal - however the bus services one the main road (10mins walk) are frequent and cheap. The apartment is a little dated and there are no additional facilities in terms of food and drink at the resort so you have to buy in or go out. I could have also done without the dogs in the next door house barking early in the morning and every time you walked out of the property but that isn't the resorts fault.
A secluded location with its own pool. The penthouse apartment was spacious, a fantastic balcony and view with an excellent kitchen. Rooms were a good size and the beds were comfortable. The housekeeping was as expected and the change over of linen and towels as described in the resort information

Cayman IslandsThe apartment we were in seemed unfinished. We only got 1 bath towel per person. You need to give a deposit for a pool and beach towel. Before you check out, you need to wait until they check the room first.
It is a great and peaceful location, closeby restaurants, the beach and the supermarket Massy. It has a kitchen, livingroom and a walk-in closet. It's a beautiful modern apartment. Staff was friendly. Nice swimming pool.

United KingdomThe daytime building works prevented relaxing by the pool during the daytime. We only discovered about the building works once we'd paid for the rooms, and the payment was non-refundable. However, we were not in the block where the building works were being carried out.
The apartments were very well designed and very comfortable, the air con worked, the self catering facilities were very good indeed. The staff were incredibly friendly and approachable. I would stay here again!
