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 reviewQuiet, beach front location. Very large 2 bedroom room. Beach views from our room. Couple of restaurants in walking distance. Huge pool with swim up bar. Lovely massage on site. Friendly staff. Well manicured gardens. Best khao pad seafood my husband had all trip from the on site restaurant. Resort and rooms felt more authentically Thai than another resort we stayed at in the area. Very relaxing stay!
Slightly run down in parts. Limited options for fussy kids at breakfast. But this could be easily solved with a jar of peanut butter or nutella for on toast.

Verified reviewThe beds were so very comfortable best nights sleep while staying there. The room was spacious and very clean. Staff were friendly and helpful all happy and smiling. The pool area was very tidy. Beach was just over the road sea was rather rough so stayed by pool during our visit.
There was nothing that needed improvement in my opinion.

Verified reviewLocation is right across the street from the beach. We often felt like it was a private beach for us! Breakfast buffet was varied, lots of options for savory palates like me, plus lots of fresh fruit (super appreciated that they had covers for the fruit unlike many buffets we saw with fruit flies!) they also have a station where you can have your eggs cooked the way you want. Large rooms (we had a 2 bedroom family suite) with tub and shower. Good strong AC. Staff was extremely friendly and very helpful throughout the whole stay! They have a relatively cheap shuttle bus that can drop you in town for the street market.
property is a bit outdated but overall, felt clean.

Verified reviewThe rooms were very comfortable. Access to the beach was good Pool area good Staff were friendly and helpful Shuttle bus into Khao Lak centre available I liked it here as it was not crowded.
If you are looking for more lively area then this isn't for you. The resort is about 15 mins by car to the main shopping/eating area of Khao Lak.

Verified reviewI liked the following the size of the room was large, the room had comfortable bedding, good air conditioning and Internet, a wonderful swimming pool, easy access to an uncrowded beach and friendly staff. We had to depart at 5:30 am and they provided food in bags for us. I recommend this resort for a quiet and relaxing trip.
The location has only a few restaurants nearby that one could walk to. Breakfast buffet should have a coffee machine where one can make a variety of coffee drinks.

Verified reviewThe hotel is located on the beach \ short walk across a road (100m). The room was spacious and clean. For longer stying guest a place for putting clothes and other items would have been nice (suggestion is a shelving unit in the closet). The breakfast was excellent as it had a mix of Thai (this was different everyday and had variety) and western (this was basically the same each day). There is a man making you eggs in the morning \ he was quite popular. The pool was clean and relaxing. It had a pool bar that served drinks and food. Also on premise was the massage tents and the people that worked here were excellent. Costed the same price as outside the hotel. In the morning they had Andy who gave an hour yoga class by the pool, which was a great way to start your day. As a family we really enjoyed our stay.
One issue we had was that the Wifi in the rooms was not the best. However around the hotel it was fine. Depending on your room our bed was a bit too soft. I prefer a firmer bed. there are a few restaurants nearby but for this hotel it would be ideal to rent a motorbike or a car if you want to see a few things around the area or try different restaurants.

There was no elevator in the hotel which makes luggage handling difficult for older people placed on the 3 rd floor. Shuttle bus could go more often
