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...).

TanzaniaI would say that the room I got the staff was cleaning at night outside so I could hear someone sweeping which kinda put me off. But other than that things were really awesome.
I loved the stay here, I find it very peaceful and the rooms are cozy, staff are friendly esp grayson, lulu, salma, xaiver, alex, and Justin. Very welcoming smiling. Even the guards are very helpful. This place makes people feel more comfortable and gives a sense of peace. The cool ocean blue walk, the beaches are clean.

United States of AmericaThey accidentally charged me for an airport transfer. I took an Uber to hotel because I asked about the transfer and they replied two days after I was already at the hotel. It was reversed however. The tv is quite far from the bed and there was this out of placed beam right in front the bed.
Amazing views! Delicious breakfast! After two days of traveling it was nice to finally kick back in a nice comfortable space! 10/10 on the breakfast! Goodluck,Fulaha and Alphonse were amazing during the breakfast service! Very attentive and hospitable! Always pleasant and smiling!

United States of AmericaNeed more humidity control in the room. Beautiful property but probably needs extensive HVAC upgrades. I think it impacts staff, too. Perhaps add mounted fans in the hallways, since they are open air. Laundry service was prompt and they returned all items, but they should switch to using pencil when marking their check sheet. I had several garments ruined from the blue ink of a pen. I wasn’t charged for the cleaning of those items, but it’s not the worth of destroyed garment. Not all clothes were cleaned fully, I ended up washing select items at the next destination. Flies. More fans (or something) to deter the flies from circling next to nice lounge areas.
The operations / management leads are excellent. They seem to have strong hospitality experience. I think the staff are working miracles in a property that needs upgrades. Upgrades should be provided to make their lives easier, too.

SpainBeing hassled a bit too much to "rate us on Trip advisor". Very poor hairdryer in bathroom ( just no power to it at all) and when mine broke they didn't have a back up portable one.
Friendly staff, great sunset views, good food, great location (can easily walk to the Slipway for those last minute traditional gifts) . Spacious room, comfy bed.Pool small, only 9 sun loungers, but clean.

United KingdomDislikes: card payments can be a faff, eg. We were charged twice for lunch. One member of staff said the accounts team would refund in 24 hours. Another person said 48 hrs... the accounts team would automatically refund the double payment which of course they did not. So I emailed after we checked out and a refund was eventually offered. I would prefer a door for the toilet, rather than a sliding shutter. Toiletries were a bit grimy and old and sink was blocked. Our door was broken but the site team fixed within 30 mins. All that being said, I would definitely return.
Likes: friendly staff, good food, very clean, spacious room, lots of hot and cold options at breakfast (cereal, crepes, omelettes) but quite expensive. Restaurant on site served a variety of food which was very tasty: lobster, pizza, curries. Beach was very close but not the greatest (sand needs a clean). I felt very safe-lots of security and staff bodies. The gardens were stunning and grounds were very clean. Close to airport (download Bolt for cheap taxi). Hot shower and good powerful water.
