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.).

CanadaThe Two-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool is somewhat misleading as it was two bedrooms in a 4-bedroom villa.
Location is great, environment is fantastic, nice and quiet. The onsite restaurant is top notch. Breakfast is tasty and has a great selection. Rooms are spacious and clean. Staff are very knowledgeable and helpful

ChinaIt took me an hour to check-in.
I liked the beautiful territory of the hotel, clean rooms, a decent breakfast. The efficient service of the staff, they tried hard to accommodate me after not being satisfied with the first room option. The second room was better, though it wasn't a villa, it was with no odour and pretty quiet, nice view from the balcony.

ChinaOur pool was not very clean. Average breakfast. Bathroom stinks very badly, with many black insects crawling out of pipes every night. We had to put a towel on the floor under the door to stop those insects from crawling into the room.
Very green hotel, like a tropical park. If want to save some money during long-time stay --- can chose this hotel. But it is ok for those, who do not stay in room all the time. Better to spend all the time on the beach or travel around, and only come back for rest.

ChinaBeach was OK but quite stale, had all you need but nothing special. Much better beaches on island.
Best place I have stayed in China. Great facilities, really friendly staff, very close to beach, 5 min walk. really comfortable and easy to get around. Only downside is a beach front dominated by large hotel resorts, so beach has limited offerings, there are ,shopping areas but they lack character. Would definately stay at hotel again but get a,taxi to another beach..

ChinaI didn’t have the warmest reception at the desk when I first checked in. The first woman who served me didn’t greet me and was almost bordering on rude. She actually walked away from me and someone else stepped in to serve me. Not sure about the reason for this. Everyone else on the staff was exceptionally nice, from the other receptionists to the grounds people and the bellboys.
Absolutely gorgeous grounds … tropical and lush with a gorgeous infinity pool overlooking a natural river - felt like I was back in Bali! Comfortable bed and large bathroom with tub. Shuttle service to the beach, but not really needed as it’s right across the street using a shortcut through another hotel property.

ChinaThe facilities are nice, but a little dated. I've stayed in 8 resorts in Sanya in the last year and this was one I was really wanting to visit and never did previously. All the reviews were very high so I had equally high hopes. The location isn't great if you're hoping to be directly on the beach. You'll need to walk about 600 meters down the road to the public beach. Although I like Yalong Bay the best of the bays, this portion, because it's public is a bit dirty. You'll need to rent an umbrella for 100 RMB. Each villa has a private pool with no real shade. It's probably nice if you're with a group and renting an entire villa, but if alone it diminishes the feel of being in a resort with nice views and being around other travelers to converse. The rooms are big enough, but they are slightly dated, and somewhat dirty in the bathroom. By dirty I mean needing repairs in the masonry. I was expecting more options at breakfast since the reviews were so high. I only stayed one night, but it would be nice if they offered activities on the small lake such as canoeing. The shared pool at the main lobby area was small and didn't seem like it was used much.
The resort itself feels like it could be a community where people reside full time. Each villa has 4 bottom rooms and 1 on the top floor. Each villa has a private pool. I like the privacy aspect if with a group. The lake is scenic and the location to restaurants makes it ideal for getting out and experiencing the surrounding area. The breakfast was good.

United Statestheir focus is on a very specific demographic. If you do not fall within that specific demographic, it is not a five-star hotel. It’s more of an over priced situation. The area is located in is also not ideal for people outside their target demographic. Their target demographic is mainland Chinese people.

United StatesWe don’t have any complaints.
The villa is quiet and not busy like many other resorts in the area. The stay is very close to the beach. The staff is attentive and responsive. The rooms and villas are very clean. We appreciated that they gave different varieties of food during breakfast. The bed in the villa was incredibly comfortable.

ChinaThe breakfast canteen had the flair and noise level of a train station. There were luckily few outdoor tables, but far away from buffet. The main restaurant (the only one open for lunch or dinner) had bad acoustics as well. The pool needs a renewal. Due to cracks in the tiles it was partly not usable. If you stay in one of the regular hotel rooms (not in a villa) outdoor areas are very small and in fact limited to the pool terrace and a fish pond around the lobby.
Fair sized balcony, large shower, pool water was very clean. 5 minutes walking to the beach - if you want to call this an advantage.

United KingdomThe room was just okay for the price. Don't go to breakfast from 9 to 10 otherwise you will probably have to share a table and maybe fight for a seat. We never did find the spa- there is a Chinese medicine centre somewhere, perhaps that is what is referred to. The "bar" has alcohol but I was told that only bottled beer was available when I asked for the cocktail menu.
If you like fruit, salad or dried Chinese food, you will enjoy the breakfast. The pool is really quite nice and not busy. Staff tried to help us, despite our limited Chinese skills.

ChinaHorrible communication. Across two months of having booked early with this hotel, and after being unable to call, I messaged them more than a dozen times after asking a question about a meeting I needed to have while there and only received one response in which they hadn't even properly read the question or made any attempt to answer it. I hate to mark a place down so severely because of that, but their hotel reception was filled with staff, there's no way responding to booking queries is too much to ask, so if you have any special requests you need met, I'd call and try to confirm it before booking, or look elsewhere. Breakfast gets slammed and there's a heck of a lot of staff standing around waiting to be asked to clear tables for people to find a place to sit. Also, no decent coffee. A place charging this much could invest in machine I think.
It's very beautiful. The villa was lovely and clean and calling the car to get a ride to reception and breakfast or the main entrance was easy and a nice (but necessary) service to offer. We did enjoy our stay, and the food at breakfast was delicious and one of the largest varieties we've ever seen. Could use more English around the resort, on menus and that kind of thing, but this is pretty par for the course in Sanya.
