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.).

BrazilEverything was just perfect
Perfect mix of authenticity and comfort in an private and isolated setting. Hosts are super welcoming, creating a special opportunity to get to know more about the bedouin way of life.

FranceThis place is magical. The location in the desert is private- the family live about 1 km away from your tent and you may join them for dinner or eat privately at in the sand dunes. The food was fantastic and the family very warm and inviting. We slept on the outdoor platform to view the stars and were awakened by camels at our feet. What a beautiful place. Thank you!

United StatesCan't come up with a single thing!
if I could give a score of 15 I would. Our host was wonderful from start to finish. We got excellent directions, when we arrived his son showed us where to park. Our host then met us and we had drinks and fruit and relaxed for a few minutes. We then went on a sunset camel ride up the dunes - highly recommended. He then took us to the camp site - and even drove our car up the dunes for us. We relaxed for a while and then he brought us a delicous dinner. It was quite windy and chilly so we appreciated the warm tent and comfortable bed with good quilts to keep us warm. The bathroom was nearby, with a flushing toilet and a sink and shower. In the morning we had fun climbing the dunes to watch the sunrise, and then enjoyed a delicious breakfast with Badr's two adorable girls helping him to serve. He then helped us drive out of the dunes. It was one of the highlights of our two weeks in Oman, I would recommend it to anyone as a very authentic Bedouin experience.

BelgiumThis was a once in a lifetime experience. We absolutely loved our time in the Omani desert. The fact that they rent an open air space for just one family/couple is really special and since it's close to their home, it still feels really safe. An absolute recommendation! Food is absolutely amazing as well. Go see the desert with Badder!
