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...).

GermanyThe host and his wife are very kind, attentive and friendly. They welcomed us with a King Coconut as welcome drink, which was just perfect after a long bus ride. The room was very clean with a fresh smell of cinnamon. The location is close to the beach and bus stand for busses to Galle/Colombo. It's a quiet area, so you're not disturbed by traffic or long and loud parties. Definitely go for the breakfast!!! It was such an ample offer of food, every morning something different, typical Sri Lankan and lots of fruit (special fruit like guava, sour sop,...) Also they didn't ask for good recommendation, which is worth a good one in itself!! It really was a personal atmosphere there and we enjoyed our stay very much. :)

Sweden-
We stayed at surf lavender for 5 nights and absolutely loved it! The hosts Chaminda and Edna made us feel very welcome and were always ready and happy to help with whatever we needed! They are incredibly kind people :) The location is also great, close to shops and cafes and the main roads, but yet we were not disturbed by any noises. The room was just like in the pictures and equipped with everything we needed. A big plus for us was being able to use the water filter! We are definitely staying at surf lavender again next time we come to weligama!

BelgiumNothing!! Loved it! 🥰
Really amazing hospitality. We were welcomed into the family with a king coconut by super friendly hosts. The room was very decent and clean with airconditioning. The day after the breakfast was incredible, the best we had in Sri Lanka and in such an enormous proportion, more than we could eat! After checking out we even received a small gift from the owners. We would highly recommend this place and are so thankful we got to stay here!! Thank you so much ❤️! Rani & Boud

GermanyEverything was perfect. It is local family business and they did their best to make our stay exceptional. Breakfast was the best we had. It is impossible to eat all you get. We asked for western breakfast and we also got some local special additions to try. We tasted local fruits, which we even never saw before. We got as much drinking water as we needed. We also could make tea or coffee in the room. We also tasted traditional lunch. We rented very good scooter from owners and got so much information about Sri Lanka. It is very calm place with birds and squirrels around.
