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.).

ItalyI’d like to give more than 10. I ealked all the viewpoint of the island and really no other place beat the view from the swimming pool and the balcony of this hotel. You can enjoy the sunset from home without having to go to crowded places. There is also bar service with low music and drinks, service is awesome and breakfast complete and delicious! And with all of this, price is more than fair. I reccomend it a lot!

ItalyThe breakfast not at the level i was expected for the location. Maybe some fresh juices will be easy get a plus!
Amazing view and perfect location. In 10/15 mins by walk you can arrive in Fira. The pool has an amazing view, you can also see the sunset from there! The room is clean and confortable. The black towel for remove make up is a special kindness to the guest and a smart idea too! I really appreciate.

NorwayAbsolutely everything was perfect – there wasn’t a single thing we didn’t like.ystko było cudowne.
Fantastic place – in our opinion the best on the whole of Santorini! The apartment at the very top, with a private jacuzzi and breathtaking views of the caldera and magical sunsets – simply unforgettable. The staff were wonderful: George, Nicoletta, the cleaning ladies and the owners – all so kind and helpful. Breakfasts were delicious, varied, with a new delightful touch every day. George by the pool is an amazing person – always smiling and so helpful. The best place on the island – we highly recommend it, you won’t find a better one!

ArgentinaIt was well located, easy to move around, specially if you rent a scotter, if you want to visit other towns. The views and the sunset are awesome and they have a nice bar next to the pool. The breakfast was great and had many options. And the personal was the best. Thanks Giorgio and beautiful Nicoleta for everything. You made our days so nice and special.

Brilliant location and much quiet than Oia. Villa llias really lovely and breakfast is wonderful. Staffs there is brilliant and helpful. They can book you if you request what you like to do. This is much better area cos less people and nice walking through. I find this location much better than Oia cos too crowds. Pool there is lovely and perfect view there and watch sunset is gorgeous. Fira is not far it is about 20 mins walking. You can walking from area go to Oia if you like hiking. It will take 2 hours and 45 mins. Room is perfect for us have view to see sea view and room is good size for us both. We will be back again. Bus can go to Fira and get changed bus go to Oia. It is much cheaper only €2. Or you can walking to Fira to catch bus go to Oia. You won’t regret this Villa llias cos perfect location and more quiet. Easy to walking around.

GermanyThe location was very convenient, close to the bus stop. The room was very nice, clean and all the amenities were there. The best thing was the view, it was amazing. The breathtaking view of Santorini, you can see from your window, I loved that. It was calm and peaceful. the staff were very nice and helpful. I was sick the last day of my stay, they were kind enough to allow me a late checkout and also arranged me a car to the airport.

United KingdomNothing! We would stay again!
Fabulous location with amazing views. We liked that it was out of the busy areas but an easy walk to the local towns and plenty of eating places and bars close by. You feel like you get the authentic Santorini experience without the crowds. Also a big bonus that it had parking. The staff were also so friendly and helpful. They booked a sunset cruise for us which was fantastic. Breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed all the local dishes. Our room was small but right by the amazing pool which was perfect for us. Would definitely return if we go back to Santorini and 100% recommend to others.

AustraliaThe location of this hotel in Firostefani is exceptional. The view from the hotel cannot be described in words, it is breathtaking and has to be seen to be believed. The staff at the hotel genuinely care about making your experience memorable and enjoyable. We loved the breakfast, a lovely selection and of great quality. Our room was a little tight on space (we are a family of 4), would have been perfect for 2 adults. However the cleanliness, view and amenities more than made up for that. We would definitely stay again if visiting Santorini in the future. Well done Villa Ilias team for creating a memorable experience and for your warm hospitality!

United StatesLoved everything! The staff was amazing & very accommodating. Checkout was at 11, but they held our luggage, let us continue using the pool, & let us use a bathroom/shower until we left for the airport later in the day. The location was nice with a wonderful view of the caldera. George gave us some great restaurant recommendations & things to do. He also helped arrange transfers to the ferry port & the airport. A homemade breakfast is included & they make something special each day. All of it was great! We would stay here again.
