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 KingdomThe room condition could be improved a bit more. It wasn’t easy to book water sports as it’s fully booked or wind.
It was a good value for what we paid for all-inclusive. Staff and food quality were so good. All was well cooked, delicious, various, enjoyable especially the main buffet and the food truck(?) one. Drinks were also all good. Staff were all nice. Sauna, spa, gym were also nice to use. Atmosphere at night time was lovely and romantic with nice food, drinks and live music.

South KoreaHowever, the weather in the eastern part of Mauritius seems to be unpredictable. When we visited in May, it was very windy and cold. It would be better to visit this resort when the weather is warmer. Additionally, the drive from the airport to the resort was a bit rough.
This resort is very modern and beautiful. The food, in particular, was very satisfying. The breakfast menu changed regularly, so it never felt boring. Despite the bad weather during our stay, the resort's cleanliness, modernity, and delicious food made our experience very satisfying. We spent our honeymoon here and were grateful for the many services provided as honeymoon perks, such as champagne and free lunch, which enriched our journey.

AustraliaStayed in the Villa for the first time, without a doubt the most luxurious stay. It surpassed our expectations. Everything was great. The weather wasn't the best but we still made the most of our stay. For the villa pool, it is heated so great to use in the colder weather too. We were served canapés in our room including a floating one for the pool - great experience. Room had everything you would need, small kitchen for tea/coffee, large bathroom overlooking the private pool and access to the private beach from the back of your villa. Bed was very comfortable and large with large TV. Villa includes bluetooth speakers which play inside and for the outside private pool area- very fun having this to use whilst you are spending time in the villa. The facilities of the hotel are amazing too! Buffet breakfast and dinner is a must, service is great and range of food is incredible. Having access to private beach is very convenient for multiple trips in the day. The spa/sauna facilities, gym, tennis court, pool table, table tennis etc are great additional facilities included with your stay. We had 2 butlers Haymen and Kirti (not 100% on spelling) they were very handy to have on call incase you needed anything and very friendly and welcoming thank you.

The staff were extremely attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. The gym /fitness staff were really keen to show us all the equipment and help us and we loved that there were free exercise classes with great staff.

Botswana1-the room floor had stains 2- a quiet part of Mauritius so limited options outside of the resort 3- buffet is extremely expensive 10000mauritian rupees is a lot for a dinner coming from the African continent
1- the junior suites are big and have a love ocean view even though it wasn’t the option I selected. 2- proximity to the ocean was as advertised 3-the main pools was shallow enough for kids to swim 4-assortment of restaurants 5- the floors were tiled. This is excellent for people who have allergies 6- family friendly activities for the kids and adults 7- ideal for honeymoon and complete relaxation 8- the staff was. Well trained courteous and really went over and above to make us feel welcome

IsraelFirst of all the prices for food and beverages are very high. The price of over 100Euro per person for dinner is exaggerated. I would expect a little less pressure from the employees of the bar to order additional beverages. It is not nice that every 2-3 minutes someone comes up to you offering more drinks...
First of all the staff who were all very friendly and always ready to help. I would like to especially mention Elvis at the reception and Niti at the bar who were really exceptional Breakfast was fantastic with so many things to choose from Beach was beautiful and always clean

From the moment we stepped into the hotel, we knew our stay would be amazing. We were greeted by the gorgeous Alisha who checked us in and showed us around the hotel. The hotel itself is stunning, with its lush gardens and pristine clear beaches. We opted for the all inclusive package and it was worth every penny. With this package, all food and drinks are included (including the room’s mini bar) and a number of water sports. The hotel offers a variety of different restaurants all of which serve the most delicious food, we were honestly lost for choice. During our stay we also visited the famous Indian restaurant Amari by Vineet, the food quality here was exceptional. The staff at the hotel went above and beyond to ensure we had the best most comfortable stay. A special mention to Bilal from Maison Lux Cafe, who made the best coffees, Ravin, manager of the restaurants who made sure we were taken care of and always checked in on us, and Jennifer, who took care of organising events and dinner for our anniversary and birthday. Also a shoutout to the staff at the gym (sadly I didn’t ask for their names) but they were all friendly and welcoming! We honestly can’t recommend Lux Belle Mare enough, it’s the best place we’ve stayed in thus far and cannot wait to visit again.

United KingdomOur first trip to Lux Belle Mare was supposed to be a one-off. After 3 consecutive Easters there we can’t rave about it enough. It ticks all the obvious boxes - amazing pool/beautiful beach/excellent food and cocktails - list goes on. But it’s the staff that make this hotel next-level. I asked my 6yr old what his favourite thing about Luxl is, he said ‘it’s as if everyone knows me’. And that’s exactly it. From personal touches like remembering my 2yr olds favourite ice cream to taking a moment to greet my kids, the Belle Mare has a special way of making guests feel at home. Thank you Nitin, Vinns, Vijay, Bhawoo, Abi, Vishal for ensuring I was never without a Bellini. Although I fear that my kids will never be happy with retailer juice again after your rainbow mocktails. Yuv, Kris, our over attendance at Beach Rouge says everything you need to know about our experience. Chris, Satish, pool time wouldn't be the same without you. Thank you Owen, Shikha, Akshay, Luvish, Vinns, Doorgha for your friendly service. Praveen, thank you for making our trip to the dentist so smooth. Sheila glad to catch you before leaving! Roopesh, what can I say, you and your lovely team at Amari made our date nights extra special, you'd better still be serving lemongrass prawns and pashwari naan with that insanely good cocktail next year...thank you. Elvis, thank you for taking time to hang with us, so special as always, you run an awesome ship! A special mention to all our friends at reception, I’ve lost the piece of paper where I wrote down your name spellings - but you know who you are - Fox’s surprise gift was so special, made leaving a tiny bit more bearable. If you can’t resist pearls and shells on the beach, Hendrick not only has a beautiful selection, but a wonderful business story too. Finally, thank you Maria and kids club. This is a resort where parents and kids BOTH get to relax. What more could we ask for?

SwitzerlandDrinks and Spa services really overpriced (Switzerland prices so far). Not enough night entertainment for solo travelers after dinner .
I am a solo traveler and a hospitality expert myself. I have been to thousands of hotels across the planet and Lux* Belle Mare was a wonderful discovery. Great is just not enough to define this place and its staff. I was traveling alone and felt welcomed from the very first second and until end of my stay ( 6 nights). The hotel design will blow your mind away, it’s just modern and beautiful. A truly relaxing place with a sensational spa and amazing therapists. A super nice gym and also a book and tea room where you can relax. The little lake with the fishes and the beautiful rooms, the beach and the fast personalized service.The Food is just everywhere excellent and most important, every single person of the staff in this hotel is highly professional and kind that you will just feel at home. I wanted to extend but the hotel was fully booked and I was truly sad to leave this paradise. I am in love with this hotel which is family friendly and also couple friendly. For solo travelers there is not much entertainment however if you are a solo traveler you can enjoy the spa and live music at the bar. The best hotel in Mauritius ( I tried 4 hotels 5 start on the island including lux* le morne, but Lux* Belle Mare is a way better under every point of view). I believe that Le Morne has a big potential but the hotel is not on the level of Belle Mare regarding service and food quality. A special thank you to the team members who made my stay memorable : Bilal coffe barista gadha reception cynthia breathing course rapesh from the breakfast ravin kris hema reception yashveer barista - top service very kind Rahoul service Vijai and the entire bar team. shishta Keshika Shisha The room cleaning service was also exceptional and I loved to find everyday a towel with a different animal shape on my bed ❤️.

GreeceWhy still 8 out of 10: - No swimming in the sea. The security net is so close to the shore and it is so shallow that you can’t practically swim, if you wan to swim - only outside of the safety area. - The smell of the waterfront is very distinct. One of the reasons we didn’t swim in the ocean. Actually almost no-one was using ocean - USE Antiseptic everywhere. My wife got a heavy poisoning, which was really disappointing. I don’t believe from the food, though… I saw low attention to hygiene while handling dishes, forks, etc. - Bar is not professional. Cocktails are nothing. The person serving us literally didn’t know what is champagne and had to ask his supervisor. - Air-conditioner in the room was driving me a bit mad. It was producing very cold air only. And without a/c it was difficult. Opening window was not solving problem due to mosquitos. So I had to switch on/off every 10-15 mins. But honestly, this is a problem of most of hotels, plus a personal thing
+ Very nice aesthetics both in room and around facilities. Really good job. + Excellent pastry Chef Pascal!!! The variety of sweets is just surprising. This was our favourite part of the dinner. + Amazing Peking Duck, but you need to reserve in advance. When we arrived most of the days were fully reserved already + Very good SPA + Great gym with all the latest Technogym smart equipment + Attention/service from personnel is incredibly high (higher than Four Seasons) + Very clean beach compared to other hotels in Mauritius + Internet is good enough for HD, I don’t know why some left comment about slow internet
