Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomThe room was smaller than we thought but that didn't detract from our stay. No hanging space for dresses. The towels were only changed once during our week even though it stated every other day. The bathroom could do with an upgrade, it looked better in the pictures than in real life. But everything worked ok, the shower was good and water hot.
The hotel is in a very good location, situated near some lovely restaurants and ideal for visiting the whole island. The pool was lovely, breakfast plentiful although some variation during the week would have been nice. The bed was comfortable and air con good once the owner had sorted it for us! The room was clean and nice to have the balcony overlooking the pool. The staff work very hard and there is always someone on hand if needed.

Family run, very friendly staff and spotlessly clean hotel. Very good choices for breakfast and restaurant offered a good choice for dinner. Great views from the terrace and quiet pool area. A comfortable place to relax and close to the beach . Would definitely stay at Sa Barrera again.

United KingdomNot really that we didn’t like it, but very rigid on checking in. We were 1 hour 10 minutes earlier & there was just no flexibility at all. Not even an offer to store luggage. So we were lucky we had hired a car to keep it in. They don’t serve lunch it was 30 degrees so we had to walk out & find somewhere to eat. My own fault really, but I thought all rooms looked over the pool & our small balcony looked along the street so wasn’t the best view. Just some advice, if you have white in your swim wear this pool turns the white yellow! So my new black & white stripe bikini that was £38 was ruined.
Quiet pool, nice room, friendly staff, good location. Nice place. We had a lovely evening meal, the view was amazing & the food was lovely. Overall a good stay, would definitely go back.

United KingdomThe bathroom really needs some work! The bathtub and the shower head were mouldy and peeling 😩 . Mattress and pillow not particularly comfortable .
Staff are very welcoming and try to help with everything, always kind and smiling. The room was quiet and could sleep well. Bright room with nice view. Good location near the beach, however the little town is very quiet and despite having some good restaurant there is nothing to see and do.

AustraliaThankfully, we were on the first floor but it would have sucked having to go upstairs with our luggage if that weren't the case.
The pool was awesome and breakfast options every morning were great! We also had on-site parking for our hire car.

United KingdomIf I have any criticism of this hotel it would be it’s restaurant . We felt it did let this place down a little but it had to most amazing seaview probably the best in town but that was about it.In comparison to the rest of the town it was abit over priced and the food was very average. The waitress were very friendly and helpful but it seemed they were untrained.
Beautiful place ,a small and intimate hotel and we loved its charm. Pool was so nice to swim in and the pool area so chilled. The staff here are so helpful and so friendly and tended to our every need. The hotel rooms were very clean and our room was cleaned and maintained throughout our stay. The aircon was great and showers were good too .Would definitely go back to this place if we are to go back to Menorca

SpainThe friendliness & warmth shown by all the staff is what makes it such a special little hotel. We were treated almost like family. Nothing was too much trouble for them, & they were always willing to provide help & advice with places to visit & things to do. In a larger hotel this would rarely happen. The room was clean. Breakfasts were good. The pool never too busy. A good restaurant for evening meals. Big thanks go to Roberto, Carmen & all their team!

United KingdomBreakfast, although nice, was a little limited. Rather than sitting by the pool, would have much preferred to be able to sit at the tables used for dinner, overlooking the bay.This would have been a fabulous start to the day.
The hotel was quirky and charming. The staff were lovely - very helpful and friendly. The room was small, but had a fantastic view and was clean and functional. Very conveniently located for all the facilities of the town, within walking g distance, but with the best view of the bay and beach.

United KingdomOffered freshly cooked eggs, bacon etc on first day but not thereafter. Not sure if expectation was for us to go to bar to ask directly or if we were just forgotten during waitress service at breakfast. It wasn’t a problem though as the food in buffet selection was more than enough!
Brilliant attentive staff, always smiling and friendly ready to help with any requests. Beautiful location for dinner in their restaurant overlooking beach. 5-10 min walk down steps to beach. Relaxing, quiet pool area with bar service for drinks.

AustraliaThere are a lot of steps to get down (and back up) to the beach. 181 of them, to be exact. We looked at them as an opportunity to work off some of the paellas we had eaten, but they might be difficult for some.
The view from the patio is amazing! I loved having my morning coffee (which was delicious), overlooking Cala ‘n Porter beach. A lovely assortment at breakfast with freshly cooked eggs made to order. Room and bathroom was a little on the small side, but very comfy and has a small fridge to keep water etc cool. The pool was lovely for an afternoon dip after a day at the beach. Lots of really good restaurants close by. The staff were very accommodating, ordering us taxis whenever we needed one (we didn’t rent a car).
