Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaNo issues— sometimes it was hard to get hot water in the shower but manageable as the weather is always warm.
The unexpected gravel road leading to the spectacular property was nice surprise. My partner and I weren’t sure what to expect but we were graciously greeted by Harry who accommodated us for all our needs during our stay. Him and all the staff were friendly and welcoming so we definitely felt at home. The villas are far larger than we anticipated— ours was gorgeous, clean and very private with an ocean view. I can’t write a review about Saphira without mentioning the food. Chef was fabulous. He came to the table each night to recommend his favourite dishes and even recommended things off the menu he had created for the day. Easy to say my partner and I ate far more than necessary as everything was just that good. We will definitely be coming back on our next trip to Africa— thanks for hosting us!

ItalyThe food
This amazing hotel is the picture perfect of Zanzibar! It's one of those hotel that you drive up to and say "Wow"! I'm so happy that I got to stay here!". Our villa 205 was with a direct view of the sea. The villa was large, nice and comfortable; we got a fantastic swim pool, private beach double shower, a good sized bathroom. The beach fantastic and the sea so fabulous! The food and the service room was good standard, the customer service was great and meticulous, Mr Harry was very professional and always available to help us! This is a paradise place to stay and forget all your troubles.

United KingdomThe road in is 2 miles and a little bumpy but nothing to worry about.
I never leave reviews but I have to let people know about this place!! It’s easy to find but the road in could be better. Then you arrive and it’s incredible, the resort and villas are 5 star! You see the beach and how close it is and you never want to leave. The amazing staff have become friends, the owner is a top guy and very welcoming. I’m very sad to be leaving but look forward to coming back. Keith the chef put on a wonderful buffet lunch for guests I had joining me who were also blown away by the service. I highly recommend you choose this hotel if you are looking for luxury!

Everything about this place was amazing. It was paradise! The staff were exceptional, very attentive and the manager was so accommodating. He made sure to provide us with recommendations to enhance our trip when we left the property and made reservations for a boat to pick us up at the property to swim with the dolphins and snorkel. We were traveling with our children and the staff were able to anticipate every need. The food was delicious and the grounds were beautiful. Everything about this place was spectacular!
