How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Just the rooster noise in the morning but the guys really helped to fix this straight away )
The guys running the place were so friendly and helpful. On the first night there wasn't a tuk tuk quickly available so the manager drove me into town (just 5 minutes for a discounted fee). They also helped with every query and concern, including switching rooms when the rooster next door was loud in the morning.

The location is not correct, ending in a few problems to arrive there (but at last I was able to reach them by phone and they provided the correct directions to the tuc tuc driver). The right location is in Jinna Nagar.
It is located in a very quiet area, at walking distance from Uppuveli beach but at the same time the neighborhood has a more local and authentic vibe. Also the room attendant was such a kind man, always ready to help.

Nothing really everything was clean and the service was great as well. Only thing the wall outlets were positioned a bit weirdly but it's no problem if you can use one outlet for multiple devices.
The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful, the owner even drove us to a bus stop with his own tuktuk for a very reasonable price. They were really knowledgeable about the area around the hotel, so if you have questions regarding marble beach for example, they will help you out efficiently. The rooms were really clean and quite spacious, we did not have aircon, but a ceiling fan which was enough for our stay in july. There are some social spaces as well. The location is really close to uppuveli, so it's near the beach and a lot of great restaurants are also nearby. Daytrips should also be no problem as the bus station is only a km away and can easily be done on foot.

The location was idyllic and peaceful. I had a relaxing break. The staff were caring and kind. I felt like royalty visiting. The new renovations really bring the place up. Absolutely stunning views from the top balcony. Felt like I was in a movie. Everything was clean and I felt safe staying here. Location is great, quiet and tranquil community. They even have transport via Auto available which is very useful and reasonably priced. I would 100% come back here. Thank you for a pleasant stay. I am very happy.

Nothing ... Everything is perfect
Amazing spot with cheap budget, We 8 persons just spent 1875 LKR per head for three days and two nights ( 1st Feb 2025 morning to 3rd Feb 2025 noon) Rooms with a clean atmosphere, and we enjoyed the balcony view. We felt it as our home due to the friendly atmosphere of the hotel. The guider - Mohamed helped us a lot - special thanks to him. There is a beach near the hotel, it looks horrible at night(looks like haunted beach), we enjoyed the haunted view of the beach and played truth or dare game at the beach, and returned to the hotel at midnight. Thanks for the unforgettable memories Zayan Holiday in.

The location was wrong on Google maps. And the place was under renovation. Also, can't get here and to the nearby beaches by public transport. Tuk Tuk is the only way. No great restaurants in close proximity.
Nice rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Value for money.

The location and general condition are good. The only problem is the lack of a private bathroom in the room. They have a great staff, they help with everything and they always keep the hotel clean.
