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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United KingdomIt was perfect!
The hotel is all fresh and newly decorated. It’s very bright and clean with nice white furniture in the bedrooms. There are stunning works of art all around every room. The staff are lovely and the waiting on staff in the dining room are very attentive. The dining room is extremely popular and always busy. Advise to book. Sometimes have someone playing the grand piano. Beautifully cooked food with views to die for. Fallen in love with the view and the ever changing tide and light on the sandbanks. Really sorry to leave this place. It’s magical.

CanadaThat I didn't find out until check in that they charge $100 PER DAY deposit up front. I was anticipating about $100 total. Some better communication would work great to resolve this :) The only other thing I would have liked was some control over the air conditioning in the room as the unit blows cold.air directly on you while.youre trying to sleep. Also when you sit out on the balcony the heat pump is pretty loud. First world problems though, am I right?
Super clean rooms, lovely outdoor pool - super close to the beach and really beautiful decor!

CanadaRoom was great..everything was high standard.I have retired from 40 years as a travel agent specializing in cruises....so have lots of experience and exposure to hotel ratings Only things I would add for my own safety (age 83 but in pretty good shape) some kind of night light for when one gets up at night In total room darkness..not waking partner) Also good for me and others is 1 or 2 grab bars at tub..I was hesitant to try to shower.I know they don't add beauty to room appearance.
Perfect..my friend who lives in Parksville joined me for my treat to her.We had a table right at the seaview window. We both had the toast plate that had smoked salmon, avocado etc. It was delicious .I never order any version of egg and bacon or sausage or similar, plus some form of bread..too ordinary and boring for me ! as I have made this for family for 50 years !!

CanadaOur room was facing the town and the sound from the AC outside or sth else was horrible. It didn’t let our baby sleep. Even we had a trouble sleeping with a closed balcony. I would never get that room again if I had a baby with me. Invest in an ocean facing room, it’s worth it
I liked how close it is to the beach and the rooms are very clean. Also, the pool is great for babies. Not for adults:) very shallow, amazing for parents.

CanadaPool was small and shallow and was more suited for children rather than teenagers and adults. Renos were being done in the front so not a welcoming first impression.
The resort was clean and rooms renovated for the most part. Had an amazing.view of the bay. Staff was friendly.

CanadaThe lighting in our room as well as throughout the resort is an issue for me. I have problems with ultra white LED lighting, and my doctors have assured me that I am not alone. For me, soft white lighting is much preferred (and a more welcoming ambience).
Our room with a view over the water was very nice. Beds and bedding were very comfortable. Breakfast was very good, and the view over the water from our table was beautiful. The art displays were an added bonus.
