Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

RomaniaThat I didn't stay longer:)
I had an amazing stay, unfortunately short this time, but I will definitely come back. The apartment was big, very nice design, very clean (wich is very important for me), nice staff, good food and the best Wi-Fi speed I ever had in Zanzibar. The pool is big and the beach is literally 1 min away wich was perfect for me because I enjoy drinking my coffee at sunrise on the beach. I totally recommend this place.

PortugalThe Sand Beach Boutique Hotel is, without a doubt, the best hotel on the east coast of Zanzibar! New hotel built with great taste and with attention to detail. My family and I stayed at this hotel for 11 days in a villa with a private pool. The villas are spacious with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, perfect for families and with the advantage of having a private pool! All the hotel staff are impeccable, from the owner to all the employees, as well as the food is always fresh and prepared with dedication. My son had his birthday and he was entitled to a small cake and they sang happy birthday to him, I know he will never forget it. Thank you very much, we loved our stay!

United StatesThe WiFi connection was poor in the rooms due to the distance from the router which is placed in the restaurant.
The staff (especially the bar manager and receptionist) were extremely kind and welcoming. The breakfast options are great and the restaurant itself has tasty food for lunch and dinner. Rooms are clean and very spacious. Beach is merely a 2 min walk from the entrance to the hotel. Also very convenient that they have a generator since the island suffers from many power outages.

One of the best location where we have stayed in our exotic vacations. Very friendly for families, everything new and very clean. We traveled with our 2 year old daughter and the host was very nice to provide everything that we needed for her. The hotel is super close to the beach, the staff is very friendly and kind, the food is amazing. They always have fresh catch to offer, the food is tasty and the fruits delicious. I highly recommend and we will definitely come back here in the future.

TanzaniaThe Hotel looks exactly as what’s seen in the pictures. It’s even more beautiful at night.The Entire property is awesomely beautiful and clean. But also the free pool. Our kids really enjoyed their time by the pool swimming unlimited. But also it’s very close to the beach.
The property is clean and very neatly organized. The design of the property is very simple and classy. Honestly it’s place where anyone would love to stay with family or friends.

The restaurant served delectable food with a wide variety of options, and the breathtaking views added an extra touch of magic to every meal. The proximity to the beach made it so convenient to enjoy the stunning coastline. Moreover, the apartment was impeccably clean, reflecting the high standards maintained throughout.

Sri LankaI recently had the unfortunate experience of staying at Sand Beach Palm Resort & Villas, and I feel compelled to share my dissatisfaction with the owner’s behavior and the overall service. Upon arriving on December 26, 2023, at 1:00 pm, the initial impression was marred by the absence of basic amenities in the rooms. Despite the modern appearance, the lack of water bottles, a refrigerator, glasses, and a kettle for boiling water immediately created an inconvenience for my family. The situation escalated when we encountered the hotel owner, whose unprofessionalism and disregard for guests were apparent. Despite the booking clearly stating that breakfast was included for all guests, the owner attempted to charge an additional fee, making baseless claims about the reservation’s coverage. The owner’s dismissive attitude, unwarranted threats, and refusal to provide essential services with courtesy were unacceptable. Moreover, the lack of legal payment options, the absence of a card payment facility, and the refusal to provide receipts for our orders raised serious concerns about the hotel’s integrity. To make matters worse, it became apparent that the owner harbored racial biases, particularly against Asian guests. This discriminatory behavior created an uncomfortable and unwelcoming atmosphere, tarnishing the overall experience. As a result of these issues, we were compelled to leave the premises and find alternative accommodations. It’s essential to note that the cancellation was imposed by the hotel, not initiated by us. In my over 10 years as a loyal member of Booking.com, this is the first time I have encountered such unprofessionalism and discrimination from a hotel owner. I strongly advise potential travelers to reconsider booking at Sand Beach Palm Resort & Villas through Booking.com, as the overall experience left much to be desired.
