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 StatesOverall felt like there wasn't enough staff. Long wait at check-in for example, room wasn't ready for over 2 hours past check-in time. Beach was a bit short and the ocean floor is rocky at that location. Wished the breakfast buffet was more extensive.
Location and food were great overall. Property and pools were very nice.

United StatesBiggest disappointment was the level of noise and disruption in mornings. This varied by very young children next door, including a surprising number in one room. Our TV consistently had poor service. Also, adult pool was not as expected- significant number of children each day. Including very young children in diapers and becoming ill .
Club level services were excellent,as were the pool. Restaurant on property were all very good. Staffing top notch.

United StatesOnly things that you couldn’t have done anything about. But I will say that on our stay one of the employees walked by and asked about our day. When hearing about how sunburned we had gotten and wished for aloe a fresh cut cup came delivered while we were away. That’s not a compliment or a complaint. That’s above all expectation.
I’m fond of fine dining but for a little fella from Tennessee I would have loved some bacon/ham, home fried potatoes and eggs. Maybe just a hash of some kind. And the menu, which was delicious, was limited. I love a good tuna sandwich, you provide one, but that’s more my cold cut for lunch rather than my breakfast to get started with.

United StatesThe gift shop leaves a lot to be desired for a 4 or 5 star resort. My wife and I went looking for some gifts and keepsakes and there wasn’t anything worth buying. We also had a bad experience at the Bluewater restaurant. The wait staff seemed to completely forget we existed. It took o we an hour for our food, we had one drink and were never asked if we’d like another one the entire time.
The property is stunning! It combines old world charm with modern updates and amenities. The pools are great, the private beach is a major plus, and the views of St. John and beyond are breathtaking.

United StatesIt's a bit out of the way from the island's main hubs. Perfect if you want to sit at the beach all day and relax but not ideal if you're looking to explore the area.
Room and view were beautiful. Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The restaurant options both onsite and accessible via their free shuttle were excellent.

United StatesThey don’t clean the rooms every day; it’s more like they make the beds and bring towels. I wanted clean sheets. The menus are limited; felt like we ate the same things every day. They don’t have smaller towels for hands or hair; only one size in the bathroom. They charge a delivery fee in addition to the high prices for in-room dining, even when the restaurants were closed due to storms. The beach area is small and was dirtier than going to the local beaches.
The gardens / grounds are breathtaking!!! The pools were in abundance. The views are amazing. Most of the staff are very helpful and accommodating. The food is yummy. The beds are very comfortable.

United StatesCheck-in process was not smooth and we were left waiting to know when our room was ready. The bed was too soft for our taste and as not as comfortable as we would have hoped. Food was good, but did not exceed our expectations.
All-inclusive amenities, friendly staff, beautiful grounds and scenery. Spacious room and balcony. Many good choices for restaurants on the campus. Nice spa and wide variety of services.

United StatesOne of the bathrooms had an issue with panels falling and one fell on my daughter's foot while getting ready one morning, they are a bit heavy. I tried to call the head engineer (card was in room) but did not get a reply.
Overall, we had an excellent time, a very memorable vacation. Booking.com made it so easy and the price that was advertised is what we paid. No gimicks. This is much appreciated and we will use Booking.com again. Excellent breakfasts and dinners at Bluewater. The concierge is amazing. So knowledgeable and willing to help. Did not rush me and answered all my questions. Gave great tips that made our trip that much better. The resort is close to other beaches and very close to the ferry terminal to St John.

United States95% of the personel there starting from front desk all the way to pool people all of them are very dry, not welcoming and sometimes plain rude. The ladies working at the reception and the concierge dont show any sign of hospitality, always just a few short words showing the impression that they are bothered by your question Tbia is not Ritz way of hospitality. Their nigjtly rates are over $1300 per nigjht, but service is the level Holiday Inn at best. We will never go back and would not recommend to anyone. Save your money and time and go somewhere else!
The beach and the weafher was nice. The food at the restaurants was good.
