Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomWe LOVED our stay here. The room was amazing and such good value for money. The kitchen was also great and well equipped! The host was soo lovely and welcoming and he made up breakfast every morning. He even went to the shops to buy us milk and eggs without us asking as he could see the empty boxes outside the room. 10/10 recommend🔥

AustriaI had a very good time here. Mr. Sisira is super friendly and helpful and was always in a good mood. He did my laundry for free and brought me water and something to eat every day. The room was very clean and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was large and had hot water. I only wanted to stay 4 days but ended up staying 9 because I felt very comfortable. Thank you very much for everything!

MalaysiaOur stay at Villa Don Williams was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the villa's stunning serene surroundings. The property is impeccably maintained, offering a perfect blend of modern comfort and traditional charm. Every detail, from the spacious rooms facing the river with green environment exudes calm and tranquility. However, what truly made our experience unforgettable was the exceptional service provided by the housekeeper, **Mr. Sisira**. His dedication, professionalism, and warm hospitality went above and beyond our expectations. Mr. Sisira was always attentive to our needs, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was seamless and enjoyable. Mr. Sisira's kindness and genuine care for our comfort added a personal touch that elevated our stay to a whole new level. He is an invaluable asset to Villa Don Williams , and we cannot thank him enough for making our vacation so memorable. We highly recommend Villa Don Williams to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway with local culture, and we especially commend Mr. Sisira for his outstanding service. We look forward to returning and experiencing his hospitality once again! Thank you Villa Don Williams and Mr. Sisira!

United KingdomWithout a doubt the best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka! Fantastic and friendly hosting with a huge breakfast + extras served every day (you will not go hungry here). The accommodation is only a stones throw from the beach yet far away from the hustle of the main road running through weligama. If you enjoy watching wildlife I would suggest booking a room with a river view balcony to see many birds at sunrise/sunset. I really cannot recommend this place enough!

DenmarkIf you go to Weligama: STAY HERE If this could get 6/5 stars, it would!!! We have been traveling for 1 month i Sri Lanka, and this has been the most perfect stay for us for so many reasons: (We stayed in a room on the first floor) Location: just 10 min walk to the beach! Perfect! AND has a very nice view of the river and a nice terrace Room was nice, good AC, comfortable beds (good pillows for once!) and we LOVED that there was a kitchen (equipped with everything we needed) The WiFi is also really good! And the service. Wow. This man is the kindest person in Weligama. With his generosity and flexibility we had the most amazing stay, and I can’t thank enough for that! Him (and his lovely daughter) made sure we had a number to contact him anytime with any needs. The food was so good, and honestly a 11/10 stay. Thank you!!

United KingdomWhere to start? I was a bit hesitant when I booked this place, because the reviews seemed too good to be true, but they are not. This place is wonderful. Our host was an incredibly kind natured man, never stopped smiling, worked hard all day to keep his guests happy. I stayed with my boyfriend for a month, in the none AC Room. He’s from Quebec and he can’t cope with being too hot, but he was fine.. there are two powerful fans that do a great job. There is a kitchen, huge fridge, we ate at home every night which was a luxury after months of travel. The bed! The bed is the best bed I’ve slept in for over a year I’m not kidding. It’s huge and comfy and I felt like a queen. The place is on a quieter road near to the beach and the supermarket, 1 minute from a convenience store. The view from the balcony and garden of the river is so beautiful. I would love to thank our new friend, our amazing host for taking care of us for a month and making us feel like family. Everyday he surprises us with fruits and Sri Lankan delicious breakfasts, bottles of water.. coconuts when we were hot in the afternoon. Thankyou with all my heart. We are so grateful to find your place.. after I spent many years returning to Sri Lanka, this is my favoriye accommodation by far. See you next year!!

United KingdomNothing. Our favourite accommodation in Sri Lanka!
We stayed here for 7 nights and it was the perfect place! Extremely close to the beach and lots of restaurants but off the main busy road. The room had lots of kitchen amenities (fridge,gas cooktop, kettle) and we always had hot water for a shower. Sisira, the host, unexpectedly provided sri lankan breakfast, fruits and water bottles every day. He was an amazing host and I would 100% stay here again! Incredible value for money. I also recommend a balcony room to watch the river, especially for sunset!

United KingdomNothing, it was amazing. :)
Sisira gave us incredible hospitality, and looked after us so well. We got breakfast every morning, full of fruit and traditional sri lankan curry, and egg. And one day when we had breakfast out, he cooked us dinner instead! Him and his daughter are kind and welcoming, really making you feel like you’re at home - so much that we extended our stay. Bikes free to rent, laundry no charges too. Two fans in room for non-AC one was plenty, fridge so we could keep snacks/juice in, huge bathroom, kettle. Plus location is lovely, a short 5 min walk from supermarket/beach/restaurants and more peaceful and felt less touristy. 100% reccomend booking your stay here if you are staying in Weligama.

FranceTrust me, nothing to say !
Our host was the nicest person on this incredible island. Every day, he surprised us by little attentions as fruit, breakfast, laundry services, etc. The place is well located but it’s better to rent a scooter and feel free. Really, it’s a secret place, closed to everything but away from noisy center ! Tips: don’t forget to spend time on the balcony, nature is living there ! We saw crocodile, monkeys…
