How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWe had the best few days at monk seal boathouse. The location was private and absolutely amazing, so unique. The water lapping at the door, the sunsets - we can’t rate this place high enough. Thank you so much for an amazing stay - we will remember our visit forever and hopefully return one day.

Verified reviewThis is an experience place to combine to live simple and be so close to your private water You will manage to calm down from any stress and enjoy the beautiful evenings looking at the sea The sleep is so lovely listening to the small waves coming close to the appartment The restaurant Astakas offer very good service and quality of food but needs a reservation, it is about 10 minutes walk from the flat There were plenty towels around for shower and swimming
A better organized outside the flat it would be recommended A mirror is missimg In the main area rhe only available mirror was a small mirror in the bathroom

Verified reviewThe secluded location wonderful, friendly cat, help with our luggage. The entire sea felt like our own- right out the front door. All essential kitchen items included- jams, butter, cereal, coffee pods, oil and needed plates and cutlery. Cat food for the one eyed cat my daughter named Spotty. Maybe bring only what you need in a small bag to carry- it's a bit of a walk over pebbles, sand, slippery slopes, and more.
The bed a bit lumpy

Verified reviewThe location was fabulous, if you like a quiet, private place that you can swim right out the front is ideal. Every thing you need is there, very comfortable, with enough space to spend time at the location. The local restaurant is superb with quality food at a fair price. The host also provides enough supplies to have a decent breakfast and coffee which we really enjoyed.
Everything was great, but understand if you want to visit and explore the whole island or buy extra supplies you do need your own transportation or be prepared to arrange taxi or some kind of transportation. Our host ensured we had transfers and we had no trouble getting to our accommodation and then to the airport. During our stay we arranged a few different tours and used the local taxi to get to the meeting points.

Verified reviewNowadays is difficult to find unique experiences due to the size/dynamics of tourism. Although the Monk seal boathouse might be pricey for an average family, I still recommend to make the effort and experience this amazing oasis at the end of Klima. I am pretty sure my family, specially my two small kids, will remember this stay. Comfy beds and nice kitchen with all you need.
Bring water shoes for bathing/walking. Some insects (cockroach) but nothing unexpected due to the location. Low ceiling, careful with your head :D Overall nothing to complain!

Verified reviewThis is a beautiful, unique location. The water is lapping at your doorstep and the views are fantastic. But it is quite a hike along the water so not good if you have mobility issues. Our host made sure the cupboard had the essentials, a nice touch.
It would have been perfect if there were some comfortable beach chairs for sitting by the water. The ones supplied had seen better days, broken and rusty. Also, a bistro table & 2 or 3 chairs on the upper deck would have been a nice touch for morning coffee. There are no kayaks or paddle boards which would have been great.
Thank you very much for your comment for the terrace furniture our furniture gone away because of the waves coming from the ships the chair was the only one that survived and found 300 meters away on the rocks Off course we provide outside furniture !we have new furniture but it needs some time to be delivered from Athens we are trying our best to make our guests feel like home We don’t provide paddles or kayaks for safety reasons as they are forbidden by the Greek law

Verified reviewThis place is absolutely incredible and by far one of the best homes we’ve stayed in. So unique and different to anywhere else you might stay on the island and truly your own private and remote oasis. The hosts were so attentive, responsive and thoughtful - helping us to get our luggage to the house and stocking the pantry and fridge full of snacks and treats for us and including snorkelling gear, towels and toiletries - everything you need is in the house. Don’t hesitate to book here if you’re in doubt - it will be an experience to remember. We will definitely be back!
