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.).

IndiaReally loved this place. We wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately someone beat us to it. Breakfast was amazing and staff were lovely. There is a kitchen you can use and washing machine too for a small fee. The beach is very nice and quiet with a few decent restaurants. It is about a 2 minute walk from the house.

AustriaWe liked everything! Spacious clean room with AC, delicious breakfast, beautiful garden and really lovely and helpful hosts ❤️ We loved to visit the turtle conservation project nearby and there is an abandoned beautiful beach 5 minutes by walk. We would definitely stay there again as we unfortunately had only 1 night.

BelgiumEverything was perfect!
Wow only lovely words for this place! First of all: the owners are the best. They are so friendly and helpful. Second: the house is great. The room is very clean, you have a fan and AC, big bathroom, a terrace, good wifi and a nice green garden. Also breakfast was delicious! And at last: the house is 2 minutes walk from a quiet beach and also a supermarket. If you want some rest and not in a touristic area. This is perfect!

United KingdomA great stay in a beautiful villa. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable with a massive bathroom. Also a shared kitchen and lounge area with only one other room. The family was so welcoming and friendly. They went out of their way to be amazing hosts, driving us where we wanted to go and cooking a delicious dinner. A brilliant stay, wish we had been there longer.

United KingdomI really can't write a good enough review for these fantastic hosts and this absolute paradise of a location. Four of us arrived for a 3 night stay in Bentota and I had organised ahead that we would like to mark our 25 year anniversaries on the beach. Our hosts went above and beyond my expectations by decorating the beach for a little ceremony, decorating our rooms and providing a stunning meal with the freshest fish imaginable. It was all perfect. After this our hosts also took us to the local sea turtle hatchery, got up super early to take us to Marissa whale watching, showed us the ancient fort in Galle, Coconut rock view point and turtle beach where the turtles come and feed from your hand. They also showed us the best places to eat and generally couldn't do enough to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I thoroughly recommend this accommodation. Thankyou 🙏

The owner, Shashinika, and her family were so kind and helpful. They cooked me an amazing dinner and breakfast. I booked only a few hours before arrival and she already had the place perfect for me. The room and villa area were very nice and clean. The beach nearby was amazing and almost untouched. They also helped and came with me to some activities in Kosgoda. Thank you so much Shashini, I will definitely return soon!!

GermanyNewly renovated, comfortable room with a good matress. The bathroom is very modern, everything is clean. The best part for me was the contact with the owners. Sitting in the garden, talking about philosophy or religion as well as exchanging about our everyday lives was fullfilling for me. The nice couple speaks very good english, so communication was easy.
