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.).

GermanyTop notch spotless flat, pool and location on the beach. Walking distance to all nearby restaurants and diving centers. Owners Rory and Elaine are wonderful hosts who made us feel very much at home, and their staff took great care of us. Thanks for a memorable holiday.

GermanyI have visited Sri Lanka now for 5 times and this appartment definitely belongs to the 5 best places I have been to. It is large with a comfortable and beautiful welcoming interior. The kitchen has a lot of equipment which fulfills every wish to cook inside. Not a single thing missing and expectations were exceeded. From the living room you have a beautiful sea view and can hear the views. The building is very quiet. Beach towels and sunbeds are provided. A big plus was the fast, easy and very friendly and helpful conversation with the owner. All staff members were also very friendly and helpful. Definitely a beautiful, clean and spacious place for your stay in Nilaveli (Trincomalee). Loved it.

Sri LankaThere was nothing.
We stayed here with our two young daughters. The apartment felt like a home away from home. Everything we needed was there. The kitchen was fully stocked. The apartment was bright and clean with the added bonus of blackout curtains so that the sunrise didn't wake us up. It was comfortable and close to the beach. The gardens were beautiful and the pool was refreshing. We stayed an extra night because it was so incredible. The host, Rory, has excellent communication skills and he was very kind. There was free wifi and it worked very well.

GermanyIt is a bit off the beaten path which made it very peaceful but also requires walking or a tuktuk when wanting to go into the town. The restaurant in the complex was okay at best but there are some good restaurants be t door.
Directly at the beach with own sunbeds and pool - it was perfect. It is only a short ride to pigeon island and there is a guard at the beach entrance during the day. The apartment was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. We loved our stay here.

New ZealandWe would have preferred a better view from the apartment, however we did get a peek of the sea from the lounge area and the main bedroom. Next time we would book one of Rory and Elaine’s other apartments if they were available.
The apartment was immaculately clean with good quality linens. The kitchen is well-equipped with a water cooler, washing machine and even a toasted sandwich maker. The bathrooms aren’t shown in the photos, but I can confirm that they are high quality and very clean like the rest of the apartment. The communication from Rory was excellent and we had no trouble checking in. The local staff were very helpful. The pool area is nicely done and we enjoyed having the mats to lie on the grass when there were no loungers available. The beach out front is excellent and the sea beautiful to swim in, with no sea lice!

Very comfortable and luxerious appartement on the quite and pristine beach of Nilaveli. After a few days with less comfort, we truly enjoyed this well equipped appartment for a few nights. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and we even made Dutch pancakes here for our kids.

SwitzerlandSince the keys are not provided for the doors in the flat, it happened twice that accidently, we locked a door with the knob and could not open it anymore ourselves. The key treasurer had to come and unlock the doors. That is a bit annoying, as it just happens very easily that you hit the button on the door knob unintentionally. Having said that, getting the door unlocked was very smooth and quick - very helpful staff, but felt bad for bothering them twice.
Wonderful apartment with an amazing equipment. The host is extremely attentive and available for any support. Also the staff on the ground is very helpful, discreet and kind. It is a great flat, right next to the beach. A little bliss, really!
