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.

GermanyYou can by foods and drinks at the hotel. However price performance might be better at other places.
A calm area, at the edge of the city with direct access to the sea. You can get into the center easily by foot (30mins) or by bus (5mins). Particularly, we enjoyed relaxed moments at the terrace looking at the sea.

SpainThe mosquito net was too small for the big bed, so it was not very useful. No AC, but the fan did the job (even if noisy).
Very nice and cozy stay. The room is big and the bathroom very decent. The hotel is easy to find (right on the roadside) and the backyard gives directly to the beach. Sunbeds and shower (yay!) were available. The terrace/bar is super nice and wifi worked well there (I was working until the evening and it was very pleasant). The breakfast was very good and the family running it is lovely. Very recommended!

AustraliaA bit loud next to the main street. Though there are some restaurants nearby, there’s a much better selection closer to Hikkaduwa (15mins walk)
Great location on a quieter but better stretch of beach compared to Hikkaduwa central. Spacious and comfortable rooms. Good staff and decent meals. Very good value for money.

Sri LankaThe room had 4 wall sockets, but all of them were 5A. The owner did provide a convertor, but it would be better to bring ur own.
Spacious room,breach front, and has 4 tables for you to relax while looking at the sea. Beach area is pretty clean but felt unsafe for a swim so be careful.

GermanyThe room facing the street is very noisy, but it did not bother us. For a minimal extra charge you can change rooms and sleep with the sound of the sea.
Incredibly friendly and open host family. Perfect location directly on Narigama beach. Supermarket in 5 min reachable. If you like long walks, you can reach Turtle Beach, Hikkaduwa Beach and many restaurants in about 20 - 30 min. Otherwise you can take a TukTuk. Breakfast is simple, but super tasty.

RussiaThe hosts are really amazing and make you feel most welcome- like home. I had a very simple non-ac room since my stay was rather spontaneous and was a bit concerned before my arrival. However the room proved to be very comfortable and well-equipped with furniture, the fan cooler was enough for comfortable temperature in the room, warm water was always available in the bathroom, guests can use sun beds and umbrellas at the beach. All the property is extremely clean (no insects also) and the hosts really take care of the safety. Also the hosts are always at your disposal for any request. The location is good with plenty restaurants and food shops in the area, you can walk a couple of minutes to the bus stop. I am very grateful to Talin and his family for their Incredible hospitality.

Germanyactually nothing, so far my best stay in Sri Lanka!
Talin, the owner picked me up from the Airport in Colombo (for a fair prize) and we drove down to Hikkaduwa. His little Hotel is right at the beach. I had to walk about 10m until my feed touched sand. My room with Aircon and fan was simple but really clean, as well as the bathroom. The food they served in the restaurant was good and I was able to rent a scooter from Talin too (for a really good prize) which was not as worn down as many scooters are here in Sri Lanka. He trustet me and didn't even ask to keep my passport for it, left the gate unlocked so I could get in at night (after partying) and did everything to make my stay really comfortable. He told me, which laundry place was good and where I should not go and never tried to sell me something that I didn't ask for. I can really recommend this place!!!
