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.).

SwitzerlandNot a problem, just something to note is that the plug sockets by the bed are the Sri Lankan type (three round holes), one ‘English style’ on the other side of the room.
A very nice little place run by super nice people. This is a no frills place but we were pleasantly surprised by the room and bathroom, and everything was very clean and tidy. The bed was comfortable and has a full mosquito net . The balcony looks out onto the beach and there are reserved sunbeds for the guests. There is a dive shop right next door if you want to go diving. Breakfast was included and was lovely. Excellent value for money.

United KingdomThe only minor drawback was the low water pressure in the shower, and we felt the room could use a bit more storage for clothes. However, these were small issues in an otherwise enjoyable stay, and we would definitely book again!
The hotel’s location was fantastic—right on the beach yet peacefully removed from the busy restaurant areas along the beach. A great bonus was having a dive center (sea Horse) next door. Breakfast was simple but satisfying, with a selection of fruit, toast, and eggs, all enjoyed with a beautiful beachfront view. The hotel’s free reserved sunbeds were a fantastic perk, allowing us to relax without the hassle of rushing to secure a spot.

United KingdomThe room was quite small.
This is a tiny hotel with just three rooms each with a balcony over the beach. The best views are the two higher rooms. The staff are really pleasant and welcoming. The breakfast is good, especially the bread. Plenty of eating options nearby on the beach.

IrelandBad WiFi. No free bottle of water in the room. They have a full mini bar with no prices advertised. Be warned, the sea is rough here in May, they should tell people on check in. I’m a strong swimmer but struggled to get out of the water when a large wave knocked me over. There was a really noisy bar next door played loud music late into the night
This place is all about the balcony and the views. The bed was ok, there was no tv as advertised, the WiFi was bad in the bedroom , with no WiFi on the balcony on the third floor. The sun beds were nice.

GuernseyThe only small negative was the unnecessary and mouldy shower curtain.
There are only 3 rooms in this small guesthouse right on busy Unawatuna beach. Each has a direct sea view and the balconies are great for watching all the activities in the sea and on the beach. Breakfast is generous with nice bread and a fruit cocktail as well as eggs. We asked for a kettle and a brand new one was provided. The staff were keen to please. There are 6 allocated sunbeds with umbrellas on the beach for Little Villa guests, which was much appreciated.

United KingdomOne night was very noisy with a beach party until past 3AM. (Weekend). We bought ear plugs and this helped when it was noisy on another evening. The loud music was not under the control of the owner and it kind of goes with the territory. The room was a little small but the bed was big and had mosquito nets. The room fan could do with an upgrade.
The location. Maybe the best view of all the places on the beach. Very convenient for walking out of your room and into the sea in your swimming gear. Great balcony. A/C worked well. The security was very good as the owner or a member of staff was always present and your keys are kept at reception when you go out.
