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 StatesBeautiful location, friendly staff and beautiful pool, view and facilities. Room air conditioning was still warm, shower head was broken and there wasn’t a book of information in the room to understand when things open, WiFi password and other essentials. I would absolutely stay here again and everything was beautiful with parking balcony everything but better communal would be great.

United KingdomWe would have liked comfortable chairs in the bedroom - there was plenty of room for these to be added. For us the location was too far from restaurnts that we could walk to in the evening.
The room was spacious as was the external terrace. The choice at breakfast was good and well presented. We had dinner once in the restaurant and the food was good and reasonably priced. The staff were generally friendly and helpfulThe swimming pool was lovely and the grounds well maintained. Plenty of parking space. The venue was a 15 minute drive from the coast where there were a range of good restaurants. It was 10 minutes from the nearest town but we did not visit. We were able to visit Lecce, Alberobello, Castellana Grotte and Monopoli all about one hours drive.

IsraelWe were preferred to have a rooms with balcony/patio but got 2 of 3 without . Just room. So you need to ask when you do the booking. There are many celebration events in the hotel and sometimes it was too noisy . So need to ask the quite room.
Very nice place. Location is very good. Close to the beach and main roads. Staff is very helpful. reception is open 24 hours. Room is clean. Good breakfast. Very nice pool.

SwedenI dont even know where to start. The service at this hotel is beyond bad. While we (me, my fiancé and our son, 2,5 years old) stayed at the hotel there where two weddings and they down prioritized us so bad. We had to wait 1-1,5 hour to get a ham and cheese toast for lunch and they just told us “sorry, we are busy because of the wedding” They absolutely did not care about their regular guests. They only care about their weddingguests. (I wish I would have read the reviews better, before we booked). For a few days we couldn’t use the “main pool” because of the weeding and we were just told “there is a second pool” Well, there was but they didn’t care to clean that pool AT ALL! They only cared about the “main pool” where the wedding people were. Breakfast was okey and I think the ones who where working at the breakfast (only 2 people) was doing their best based on the situation, which where too many guest (people who where there for the wedding) and too less people working. I tried to give them feedback and expressed my opinion, but they don’t care, at all. Further on the electricity went off several times, Wi-Fi was kind of bad, had an invasion of ants in our room everyday and the food was just okey, but overprized - I will upload a picture of their “green salad” which they charge 10 EUR for. It’s a joke. Would never go back.
The ladies who cleaned our room did an excellent job!

AustraliaRoom smelled like mould, interior decor seems to have been purchased from the dollar shop, the 4 weddings and another party precluded us from using the nice pool, staff lying to us that there would be no more wedding, having to ask reception to set the aircon, gym is locked during the day and it’s a nightmare trying to get a key, the hotel is a wedding venue and also in construction. Parties keep you up all night, the grounds are filled with mosquitoes.
The pool is pretty but freezing.

United KingdomHowever, we had "lunch" by the pool on the last day and they had a wedding on, our sandwiches were inedible. This is a WEDDING HOTEL. Loud music, crowds of people. A bad choice. There was a wedding every day. Bedrooms spartan.
Lovely dining room, fabulous breakfast with one poor overworked member staff making coffees to order. Dinner was equally good. Public rooms very pretty, gorgeous pool.

BelgiumThis Masseria is a nightmare, a massive nightmare. If you search for a luxury experience this is not a good solution. This is a wedding factory, you as a guest are only there to fill in an empty space between a wedding and the next one. The staff is unprofessional and in most cases still attend hotel school. Breakfast: at 9:30 they already stopped refilling the buffet, 25 minutes for a cappuccino and a coffee. No milk. A sandwich at the pool? 35 minutes, kitchen staff is busy, cooking for the wedding that will take place in the evening when your luxury hotel will became a kitsch temple. Avoid it and prefer smaller masserie if that is the type of experience that you're searching for.
Rooms are nice and clean even if the corridor is so large that the echo of people talking or staff working gets into the room. The small terrace, where available, is nice but very close to a public road.

United KingdomThere was too much emphasis on guests who came for their wedding reception rather than guests who came just for a holiday with their families. I wish we were told that there were also two pools rather than having to find out ourselves.
The breakfast was very nice as there was lots of variety for people who liked different flavours/foods. The pool was also beautiful and relaxing. The palm trees with fairy lights were very picturesque.
