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...).

United States of AmericaOne evening we had friendly, but loud neighbors. But, that can happen anywhere.
The most important thing for us is always the view and this property delivered. The wide ocean and mountain scenery are beautifully framed by the colorful and well-manicured gardens. Private patio seating is a lovely place to take in the panorama and sunsets/sunrises. We enjoyed spacious quarters, a comfy bed, lots of hot water, birdsong and the company of our gracious host Viviane who generously offered us some of the bounty of her gardens. The property is secluded and quiet with no road noise, but is conveniently just minutes down the hill from the Choicemart grocery in Captain Cook. Local dining gems are Shaka Tacos, Rebel Kitchen, Teshima's, and Gypsea Gelato and coffee.

United States of AmericaOur stay was perfect. The only thing that could have been better is if we were able to stay longer.
The best part of this stay was the view it offered when we woke up. We came in while it was dark and had seen pictures of what to expect. To see the view live was amazing. We loved sitting outside in the morning and enjoying our coffee and the vista. There were many breakfast cereal choices available.

United States of AmericaIt took one night to get used to the sounds of the nocturnal creatures.
Extremely scenic, quiet and felt remote although it was very close to the center of town and restaurants. No surprises. Guest responsibilities were posted and trip hazards were identified by the host during the individual welcoming orientation.

United States of AmericaNothing comes to mind.
The Captain Cook Belle Vue was a real surprise for us. The location was great with a stunning (!) view of the ocan 1000 feet below. The hostess/ owner was really nice and helpful. She had great information about recreational ideas for us and took time to give helpful hints.The deck and lawn areas were great for suntanning, relaxing or watching the sun sink into the ocean. The bathroom and shower are spacious and the internet is great. We also were happy with the grocery store and the restaurants in Captain Cook. It seemed really laid back compared to the hustle of Kona and is far closer to several of the best beachs on the island. This is a small family business on 4 acres of bautifully land with trees, flowers and birds. For us it was the best B&B find we have had in 15 years coming to Hawaii. We will go back again.

United States of AmericaMaybe could use a little updating, but then we also liked the down-home feel of this place, which I’d take anyway over a high rise hotel in the tourist area. The rooms were clean and comfortably furnished, and the refrigerator was stocked with custom gluten free breakfast bread and cereal. We were able to use the washer and dryer to launder our clothes before repacking for the trip home.
Amazing location, with the best views!
