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.).

NetherlandsBungalow got a bit hot during the day, but that is not the hotel's fault. By opening the windows at night and using the fan, we got a nice breeze. They still use small toiletries, would be better to have a big dispenser for shower gel and shampoo to prevent plastic waste. (they have one for hand soap).
Relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff, nice bungalows and beach. Great location near the pier (make sure to take the right ferry). A few lounge chairs spread along the beach under the palm trees to relax, a giant swing to watch the stars at night. We swam at night and saw the bioluminescent plankton! Food at the restaurant was good. Friendly staff, especially the two at reception. Water refill station to reduce plastic bottles is good.

CroatiaWe spent just one night at this hotel, but it was enough to appreciate its charms. Our bungalow was comfortable, clean, and nestled in a wonderfully quiet location. It's the kind of place where you could easily imagine staying longer for a peaceful retreat.

NetherlandsThe garden bungalows are a bit behind on maintenance. Most of the beach beds were very worn out or broken. Service at restaurants tends to be slow.
Beautifully located on a quiet part of Saracen beach, very close to the ferry, possible to walk to more crowded part of the beach (20 mins, felt also safe at night), or to beaches on the other side of the island during the day, cosy restaurant

The staff was so friendly and helpful when needed. You can see they really are a good team together, we think. The location was also very good, not on the more noisy side of the beach. And the food was the best we had there during our 5 days there.

CanadaThe price through booking.com was more expensive than the value of what we got, although I suspect if you telegram the hosts directly you could get it for a cheaper price. Definitely on the rustic side, if you're looking for glamourous this isn't it. But it's still quite lovely.
We loved the beach, it's by far the nicest spot of the main beach stretch on this island, Sanloem, off of Koh Rong. The hosts were nice, and very accommodating when we asked for things (like upgrading to a nicer room for $2.50/night, mosquito coils, etc.). Our original room (eco villa) was not as nice as pictured, but then we asked to upgrade and it was super cheap and nice, so definitely would recommend doing that. They don't have particularly comfortable or many beach chairs, but we brought a blanket and that was fine. It's a perfect spot if all you want to do is sit and relax. Also the beach was super clean, not sure what other reviews are referencing there.

SwitzerlandNo AC, and rather basic bungalows, however for me it was enough to have an amazing 4 days there
The bungalows are located directly at the very end of Saracen Beach, where you have perfect tranquility and a splendid beach. Extremely friendly staff and good restaurant. Even came to pick me up from the other side of the beach after arriving on the island

NetherlandsNot much! We were attacked by sandflies but this was nothing anyone could do anything about. It would be nice if the property could set up a small shop or sell a few items like sunscreen and bug spray.
We had a great stay here! The personnel, the food and the bungalow were all great. It's nice and quiet here 😌. A real paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

FinlandI was told by the staff that on my leaving morning "a boat man" will come and pick me up to the other pier (approx 1,5km from the villas). Nobody came at the promised time 5:50am. So I nearly have to run all the sandy beach to the other pier with all my bags with me, so I wouldnt miss the speed boat to SHV (depart 6:30am). That was the only minus from me.
Lovely eco-villa approx 20m from the sea. There was only a fan in my villa to make you cool, and that was just enough. I really did like the eco-thoughts all around the villas. Absolutely beautiful place, like paradise! Very nice staff, good food, peaceful!
