How guest reviews work
Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewI recently stayed at this charming boutique hotel and overall had a wonderful experience. The decor is beautifully curated — stylish, modern, and with thoughtful touches that give the space real character. From the cozy lounge area to the intimate courtyard, and restaurant it’s clear a lot of care has gone into the design and ambiance. quiet spa like setting oasis moments away from the activities of Eden Marina and Victoria. The staff were warm, professional, and went out of their way to accommodate requests, whether it was a dinner reservation or arranging transportation. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and the welcome drink was a nice touch! Our room was spacious, well-appointed, and very clean. The bed was comfortable, and I appreciated the high-quality linens and bath products. The only downside was that the soundproofing wasn’t perfect — we could occasionally hear hallway noise and doors closing. Breakfast was excellent — fresh, varied, and served in a lovely setting. I would’ve liked to see a few more hot options, but everything available was delicious and beautifully presented. Location-wise, it’s in a great neighborhood — walkable to shops, restaurants, and local attractions, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful. All in all, this is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for a stylish, intimate hotel with personality and great service. Just shy of perfect, but very much worth a visit!

Verified reviewThis resort is often chosen for the beginning or end of Seychelles trips – mainly due to its perfect location just a short distance from the airport. For this purpose, the hotel is ideally situated. The facilities and rooms are modern, stylish, and very well maintained – you can clearly see the high standards of the property. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated, and offer a luxurious atmosphere.
However, there are a few definite downsides: • Pool Area: There is no outdoor shower by the pool, which unfortunately results in the pool not being as clean as it should be, especially when it’s frequently used. • Use by Yacht Crew: Another drawback is that crew members from yachts docked in the marina appear to use the hotel facilities as well, which takes away from the exclusive and peaceful feeling expected from a hotel of this standard. • Breakfast Service: The breakfast service was underwhelming. Instead of a buffet, it’s à la carte – but the service was slow and not particularly attentive. A small buffet would be much more comfortable and efficient. • Construction Noise: A major downside is the large construction site next door, where the new Melia hotel is being built. It is expected to continue until summer 2026. Unfortunately, the hotel does not inform guests of this in advance. The noise during the day significantly affects the overall experience.
Thank you Laura, for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that you appreciated our prime location, modern facilities, and the luxurious atmosphere of our rooms. We strive to maintain high standards and provide a comfortable experience for our guests. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. Your comments regarding the pool area, guest privacy, breakfast service, and construction noise are very valuable to us. We are actively reviewing these points with our team to identify areas for improvement, including exploring options to enhance pool hygiene and guest exclusivity, as well as considering alternative breakfast arrangements. Regarding the ongoing construction next door, we understand how disruptive noise can be and apologize for not communicating this in advance. Your feedback is crucial in helping us improve, and we truly appreciate your candidness. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide an experience that exceeds your expectations. Kind Regards, The Management
