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.).

Trinidad and Tobago1. The resort is clearly being upgraded and at its completion qould surely be awesome. However for my stay I was in one of the older rooms. The water presaure was low throughout the stay and the fittings definitely needed upgrading, though adequate for my 4 day stay. 2. The beachfront location gave rise to the presence of flies during breakfast/lunch time which was annoying during meals 3. The available restaurant menus were significantly different and limited compared to what was advertised on the site. However the available food was always fresh and tasty!
Great Location and Great staff!!!

United KingdomStaff need to ensure that cups glasses and cutlery are available to guests at all times. Rooms need to think about towel rails in bathroom and plug sockets so the kettle can be used. More solar lights on the stairs as too dark to see.
Great location, friendly staff. Nice dinner entertainment.

United KingdomWhile improvements have been made since we last stayed there 4 years ago ( notably a fine new infinity pool and improved internet access ) the whole resort still needs a lot of modernisation and investment. The range of food (eg fruit at breakfast ) was disappointing and there werent enough sunbeds ..
The location is excellent. The hotel offers good value for money and most of the staff were very helpful and friendly.

CanadaThere were lots of mosquitoes . The property used a fog spray to control the problem that was unpleasant and should have warned its guests when it would be releasing spray on property. It was very unpleasant. The quality of the coffee was terrible. There was no espresso/ cappuccino machine service like at other resorts of this calibre. Instead, the only other option to the drip filter coffee at breakfast was instant coffee. Suggest investing in quality espresso machine (not Nespresso cups) but good Italian machine that offers lattes, espressos cappuccinos.
It was quiet and relaxing. The beaches were stunning. The food was varied and good. Especially the fish.

Stunning setting. Nice and relaxing. Stayed in garden view bungalow. Needs updating . A little outdated . Setting makes up for it. Other types of accommodation on property may be better. Food was great and nice to have the option of another location at Seagrapes Bar for lunch.

United KingdomThe insulation / air con was pretty poor which meant very warm temperatures to sleep in, with a bit of effort this could be sorted but some guests may find this uncomfortable. The wifi only really worked in the communal areas also, again, this could be sorted quite easily and would really enhance the resort, but it was also quite nice to have a break from the phone. The resort is also a little off the beaten track so be aware of this if you want to go into town for nights out etc. Taxi fares can amount up quite quickly.
All the food at the resort was well-cooked, hearty, and mixed enough during the stay for it not to be boring. Cocktails were great too, decent quality of spirits (better than other all-incs I've been to). Having a room/chalet on the beachfront was pretty exceptional also - being able to watch the sun set was pretty magical.
