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 thoroughly researched our Maldives stay, and we are so glad we chose Lobigili. This trip was to celebrate our anniversary and the proposal that had happened just a few days earlier, and it could not have been more perfect. Even though it was technically low season, we had glorious weather every single day. From the moment we stepped off the 20-minute transfer from Malé, we felt like we had arrived on a remote island paradise. Our water villa was out of this world — spacious, beautifully designed, and with uninterrupted ocean views. The food was consistently delicious, with every meal feeling like a treat. The gym was breathtaking, making workouts an absolute pleasure. Ruchi took such wonderful care of us throughout our stay, and every single member of staff made us feel genuinely welcome. The house reef may not be the most vibrant we’ve seen, but it still gave us unforgettable moments — swimming with turtles, reef sharks, and even manta rays. Lobigili exceeded every expectation, and we left feeling relaxed, happy, and already dreaming of returning.

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn’t like!
We loved everything about the property. The room was beautiful and extremely comfortable; the sound of the waves at night and the views from the deck were stunning. The customer service from every single member of staff was impeccable, especially from Maryem who looked after us during our stay. The food was exceptional and there was not one thing that we didn’t like in the restaurant. This was the best experience we have ever had, all thanks to OBLU select Lobigili!

AustraliaIt is nice to get away from technology for few days and this is place for it but unfortunately all communication is done through WhatsApp and there were constant messages with activities bookings, good morning messages, sleep well messages, etc so you could not get away from using your phone for the whole time.
The food provided at all the restaurants was exceptional. Being adults only created an environment of serenity. The activities of snorkelling, massage and fishing were well organised. The transfers from the airport to the resort and back were fast and the boat was always waiting for us. The room was outstanding with wonderful views of the water and fish.

Our stay at this Maldives resort was absolutely phenomenal! We were celebrating both our babymoon and our anniversary, and the resort made it unforgettable. Maryam, our amazing personal assistant, went above and beyond to prepare the most delightful surprises for us, making our celebrations extra special and full of joy. The food was delicious, and our overwater villa was not only beautiful and modern but also impeccably clean. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the VIP service at the airport, including luggage handling and access to a private lounge, made our journey seamless. I can’t recommend this resort enough for a truly magical getaway!

LithuaniaWe liked everything
Excellent property, relatively new and stylish, villas are designed very thoughtfully, with the soul. All inclusive package is very extensive, we didn’t have to think or plan anything, our kind host Saai had the schedule set up for us with daily activities, excursions and dining. We loved the undersea restaurant, very nice concept and it’s included in the package as well. Most resorts don’t have spa treatments within the all inclusive, but Oblu does and it’s impressive. Fitness facilities are one of the best in Maldives, you could definitely get fit there under the patronage of Lobigili’s fittest and kindest man - Randika who I a personal trainer on the spot. Complete beast 👌 Buffet at Ylang Ylang is also absolutely wonderful, it’s essentially a restaurant with a high standard food and excellent service. Special thank you to Elin, Jenny, also a sweet lady (forgot the name) who calls Jenny her mama :) We also wanted to thank Sumeda for his professionalism and keeping the buffet standard at its highest level. Proximity to Male is a great plus, it allows for more time at the resort both during the arrival and the departure.
