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...).

South AfricaThe surrounding area is not great with a public park across from the hotel. The local people use this park over weekends specifically, to party, drink, play games & camp in tents. This unfortunately did not only make us feel unsafe but the noise factor negatively influenced a good night’s sleep. The toilet is literally a walk-in closet that most guests will have difficulty fitting into.
The ocean is absolutely gorgeous. The view from the room’s balcony was incredible. The beds are extra large and very comfy. The food was great.

South AfricaUnfortunately because it’s close to the airport, you can constantly hear airplanes taking off. Also it’s close to a public beach so we could often hear the noise from it at night, one time going into 1am. The rooms are a bit old, but still comfortable
The facilities are really nice. It’s beach front which means you can snorkel and swim right there. They have a lot of free water sports includes and 2 daily boats to snorkel. The pancake bar every afternoon is great.

South AfricaI feel that the beach area could do with some upgrading as well as the food selection in the buffet. In terms of the room itself, there needs to be something in place to block out the outside noises.
Lovely room, lovely pool area!

South AfricaOur flippers and goggles were stolen outside our room. When we asked the staff to check the cameras they told us no one took them. Insinuating that we took our own goggles. There were 4 sets which cost us about R6000. They did not apologize to us and we had to replace the sets as we were snorkeling the next day.

South AfricaBed was past it's sell by date...springs were protruding...absolutely uncomfortable Only one pillow per person and it was thin like a paper sheet How can an establishment charge so much but not even supply bath soap or lotion? (complimentary in every hotel around the world) Price of drinks at the bar are ludicrous and small
Beautiful location at Blue Bay Has it's own reef on the shore Complimentary boat tour to a nearby coral reef in a glass bottom boat

Australiathe hotel was on the beach which was great, however the location Blue Bay was not what we expected, it was extremely quiet with only 2 restaurants and 2 snack bars near by, one mini market that you were not able to enter !! couple of things we didn’t like with the hotel was the meals started too late, 730am breakfast 1230pm lunch 7.30pm dinner, also the evening entertainment didn’t start until 930pm, the evening entertainment was the same music every night, always spoken on French no other language, entertainment could be improved 100% and not start so late, also the weekends are crazy busy with Mauritians staying at the hotels as they are given special rates, loud, noisey, rude, Also non residents entering the property and using the facilities and sun beds, which is annoying as we have paid to have these facilities and they haven’t, this was mentioned to the management nothing was done, also the security guard was not guarding the beach side of the hotel and allowing non residents to enter
Overall stay of the hotel was good hotel was right on the beach, perfect, great snorkelling to be had, but the areas was not as expected, extremely quiet. Restaurant staff very polite, friendly, also the cleaners were friendly, all staff were friendly, meals were fantastic, expect to gain a few pounds !!! you can also upgrade to AI which we did as there was only 2 main places to eat outside the hotel

MauritiusLeaving the room at 11am is too early when the check out is 2pm. Guests pay for one day at the Hotel which is 24 hours. It is understood that leaving the room is necessary for the cleaning and welcoming of next clients. However check out should be at least at 12:30 pm. One and a half hour is enough to clean a room. Very disappointment regarding leaving the room at 11am.
The entertainment and environment was very lively
