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.).

ItalyThe rooms are a bit old and neglected, although still clean, and the bed is comfortable. The curtains are not blackout, so a lot of light comes in early in the morning.
The location is excellent, right on the beach. Breakfast and food are good.

ItalyWe loved our stay, but if we want to find something, rooms are a little bit too small for the price you are paying.
Beautiful location, the rooms are right on the beach. We had lunch and dinner at their restaurant and really enjoyed our meals (we had grilled fish and seafood). The staff was friendly and attentive.

NetherlandsWhen I arrived, it felt like a very touristry area with a sort of laid-back hippy or backpacker vibe. Not really my type of thing. However, the food and beers in the nearby snack bar Hawaii were great, and the room was right on the beach. I really enjoyed my stay after all!

AustraliaWould have preferred a ceiling fan instead of air-con. Some pics on Booking.com were clearly taken a long time ago.
The balcony was perfect place to sit and watch the waves roll in when there were brief showers - usually in the company of one or more of the local street dogs (which looked relatively healthy). The room was very comfortable; a ceiling fan would have been wonderful (room had air-con but our preference is not to sleep directly under an AC, so we left the door slightly open each night). Easy walking distance to eateries, or short tuk-tuk into the main town.

IndiaThe room is very small - basically just a bed with extra 2 feet on each side. The bathroom was smelly and even turning on exhaust did not get rid of the smell completely.
You step out of the door and you are directly at a beach. Walk 20-25 steps and you are touching sea waves. Wonderful place if you want to stay on the beach and want to do tourist activities whole day and just come back to the room to sleep.

ItalyFortunately we came in the low season. The room was small, they have a problem with humidity, other than that is fine. Nothing exceptional. Friendly staff. The kitchen was closed. The bar was closed. The property should advise that this sort of amenities will be closed.
This place is nice, it is right in front of the sea. It was quiet, specious bathroom, ok size bedroom, nice little terrace with two chairs and small table. big window in front to watch the beach
