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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United KingdomWow Elekai is one of the most amazing places we have stayed. Everything was perfect, location, ambience, property and Bilto the Chef's food was amazing (Michelin standard). Sajeev the facilities manager was so accommodating and takes such pride in the property and wants everything to be perfect for the guests. If you are ever visiting Munnar, please put this on your bucket list, you wont be dissapointed.

MalaysiaI planned our trip to Kerala around the availability of this property and it exceeded our expectations. The property is large, spacious and beautifully furnished. The views across the valley are stunning and the birdsong in the early morning is wonderful. The housekeeping staff are great and the chef will prepare the most delicious food. This is a very special property for those who prefer to stay a little out of town. Absolutely fantastic stay.

IndiaThere were very few things to dislike but rather suggestions to create an increase in customer satisfaction: • Small touches like: mosquito candles for outside/ additional games for kids or maybe create a “spot the insect/animal activity (small paper exercise) to keep child entertained/ guide to the local area. • Location - although a beauty property, the location and access to the property can be tricky with uphill entry. Automatic vehicles should be avoided.
The property has been designed to an exceptional finish and provides ample space to enjoy your stay. The quality of the furnishing and large sliding windows make for an enjoyable stay. The resident caretaker, Sajeev was outstanding and so attentive and support to our family (and our driver) during the stay. The chef was also incredible - serving up some great dishes and tailoring to our palates/tastes.

IndiaIt's isolated place in dense nature and little scary for small families with small kids after 6 pm. It depends if you are used to the jungle like stay. I would rather choose to stay near City or crowded place with small kids and small family.
Lavish rooms and hall with amazing views. Staff is very nice and courteous and accomodating and hard working. Food is amazing and nature filled stay.

VietnamWe loved our stay, nothing to complain about.
Elakai is located a little less than an hour drive from Munnar. The villa is in the midst of a cardamom plantation. We were warmly welcomed by Anoop, the manager who showed us the most beautiful property with the most gorgeous view. There are 2 very spacious bedrooms + bathrooms and a giant living room - perfect for the 6 of us. The property was kept nice and clean by Ahmed. While staying there, Anoop took us on a couple of walks, through the cardamom plantations to a nearby tea plantation, dam and forest. He answered our many questions with lots of patience. On top of that, he was always happy to help with our little requests. When we were not sightseeing, we spent our time eating delicious food prepared by Dinto. It was the perfect place to enjoy unwind in nature on the deck - or if you’re up to it - challenge yourself to explore and hike around the area.

IndiaVery minor suggestions....like a dressing table or a full mirror would be very handy for women especially....and a better way to get hot water since the current system of waiting for hot water leads to a lot of wastage of water.
Very tastefully and passionately done property...Location is perfect for people who want to stay away from the hustle and bustle....beautiful view and the place is ideal for those too who are fond of bird watching....I could see so many birds ....The property manager Anoop was extremely gracious host and made sure every requirement was catered to...Food was good too ....

United Arab Emirates-Location is about 1 hour driving from Munnar. -It is located high on the mountain, but the view is obscured by heavy long trees. -The entrance way to the property is narrow and sandy. -The ceiling is not concrete, the nights we stayed, too much noises from windy weather, we could not sleep properly.
Property building and decoration. Welcoming staff. Welcoming chief.
