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...).

GermanyVery nice hosts, great variety of breakfast, fresh and prepared with love. Luis is always helpful and making sure everyone is happy and satisfied. Nice pool area with an honesty bar, chairs and umbrellas. The house is beautiful with a lot of design and areas to hang out. We had a room with a breathtaking view over the ocean and Portimao. The beach is only a short walk from the location. We really recommend this bed and breakfast :)!

Germanythis november, the weather brought some cold winds at night, but beautiful blue skies during the day.
For this coctail experience, take a perfect location- a little quiet outside of the main village - but in a 10 minute walking distance and scenically overlooking beautiful Praia Grande and the nice unspoiled Ferragudo. Add an always caring and friendly host who offers his private home to all of his guests and gives insider tips for both riverbanks of Ria Arade. Then add the breakfast, cake and charming italian room service of Verena, stirr well and you get a perfect holiday. Many thanks to Luis and his wife (whom we didnt meet this time, but well be back next year).

United States of AmericaIt was all great.
Everything about our stay here was fantastic! The hosts are wonderful people who make you feel right at home in their luxurious Villa, which has several nicely appointed rooms with balconies. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The included breakfast was absolutely delicious with a lot of variety, including meat and cheese, breads, freshly baked pastries, yogurt, fruit, fresh-squeezed OJ, eggs cooked to order, coffee, tea, etc. The beautiful panoramic view from the decks was even better in the evening with striking sunsets. The Algarve has been overly developed, but somehow this property maintains a sense of privacy and seclusion. It’s a good base to explore the area, take a golfing vacation, or just relax on your balcony or by the pool. It is best to have a car, but one of the other guests managed to get around with Ubers. Highly recommended.

Very well kept, beautiful facilities, fantastic view. The hosts treat you so well, kind of like how your parents treated you when home on break from university....before they realized you would be moving back into the basement after graduation. Can't recommend this place highly enough, only worry that all the positive reviews will make it harder to book in the future.

United States of AmericaI could not find any. Our GPS pointed to the wrong place first time, although it was close to the villa, the owner of the 'wrong' villa opened the gates, we had nice chat and he explained that we just missed a turn, but that was interesting too. People in there are very nice. Sometimes you can spot mosquitos tonight, so Isabel recommended to sleep with closed curtains if it happens. We spend a lot of time on the balcony and did not have mosquitoes, but kids in the next suite mentioned that they had few.
We booked 2 suits, large for us and smaller for my son and his wife, all together it was the whole second floor. Bedrooms in both suits have ceiling to floor windows with stunning ocean view. Smaller suit had huge balcony almost around the house. Our suit has hall with 2 large closets, large bathroom, 2 restrooms with bidets, big shower and bathtub. Room is big and has desk with chair, coffee table with 2 soft chairs, TV and fireplace. Every day we watched sunset and it was mesmerizing. First floor has spacious living room with soft music, a lot of books and albums and desk with fresh fruits and pastries and coffee machine, which you can use it anytime. They have also swimming pool and bicycles, which we didn't try. Every morning we had breakfast on a glass sealed terrace which has 4 tables. Breakfast was a bit different every day, includes home made pies, plain and chocolate, croissants, variety of local cheeses, meats, fresh orange juice, yogurts, pineapple, watermelon, kiwi, apple, grapes, etc. You might have omelet, fried eggs, poached eggs, french toast with avocado and salmon. Tea, espresso, cappuccino is available all day. They made beds and fixed towels, cleaned rooms every day. The staying exceeded any expectations, Isabel (host) made more than a warm home, we simply forgot about time. She speaks different languages, during our stay we saw guests from France, Germany, Netherlands, USA, Eastern Europe, different ages, and it seems everybody was very pleased. I would not say 'high end' vacation... it was more than that, we would stay there often. Location is convenient, we walked to the nearby beach, to the other part of the town to restaurants and old center, drove to other towns and beaches every day.
