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 Arab EmiratesPerhaps some entertainment for the evenings will be a good idea. Usually like a good band to play live music in the evening.
It’s a beautiful property and so close to the airport. Perfect location for a quick getaway. You do not have to spend another day travelling to remote islands

United Arab EmiratesThe gym could use a better rowing machine.
The facilities were good, especially the kids' club. Our daughter enjoyed those activities. Kids under four will require supervision, however. The bungalows were nicer than in the pictures. The gym was also sufficient. Beach villas have access to a separate breakfast area (quieter and more upscale), just opposite the breakfast area for other villas and rooms. We enjoyed the breakfast included but opted for a la carte for the different meals (lunch and dinner). It is close to the airport. If you choose a room instead of a separate bungalow, you will be on the ground floor or one level up, with four rooms in one building. The staff was amicable. You get access to a free kayak every day. Snorkeling was ok; you must swim just outside the breakers to see the lovely coral.

United Arab EmiratesRestaurants within property are not all day dine and waiting time is long. Depending upon the distance of from your room to restaurants, walking 3-4 times between room and restaurant can be a challenge as well as time waste for some.
Location is very convenient from Male (Velana) airport. Well maintained and property. Staff in general are helpful.

United Arab Emiratesal a carte it quite highly priced, worth taking full board or all inclusive option if coming with family.
despite it’s one of the oldest hotels in Maldives, it doesn’t get old, it is always well maintained every time I visit it (usually once a year for the past 8 years they have loyalty program that offered discount for f&b and late check out (mine was at 6pm this time). they keep on upgrading the hotel with new restaurants. breakfast has great selection but before there we’re champagne and wines included, not any more. the best part it is only 10 mins by speed boat, which is convenient, but on one of the island sides there is the view of Hulhumale island with Highrisers.

United States of AmericaFood is way too expensive. The feeding packages are confusing, so we decided to go with breakfast only and eat on demand to avoid misunderstanding.
Very close to Male (<10min speed boat). Rooms by the beach are awesome. Staff is perfect. The support room and shower room to people that checked out and are waiting for the flight are simply a perfect idea! The excursions we did were very well guided.
