Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SwitzerlandDon't expect a front seaview, its just a glimpse of ocean from the balcony. If you will not let this bother you, nothing else will. :)
The perfect 10 is simply not enough for this place! Its beyond perfect. The mum and daughters running the hotel created a paradise striving to add perfection every step of the way. The attention to detail is stunning. The hotel is just 2 years old, everything is shining new, rooms are huge with high celings and quality furnishings, bathrooms are better than in many 4* hotels. The breakfast is legendary! Its more like a 6 course meal and when you can't take another bite, the ladies pack it for you as a takeaway. :) A tranquil lagoon beach is just few steps down the road and Silent beach is a 5-7 min walk. Both have good seafood restaurants. We would go back in a heartbit. Thank you for the great stay! Keep up with your amazing job! Strongly recommended!

United KingdomNothing—it’s perfect! As you can see in the last photo, I didn’t want to leave.
We stayed at the property for five days. The breakfast was out of this world in terms of quality and quantity; it was absolutely delicious. The bedroom was incredibly clean and comfortable. The location is perfect for walking to the beaches, as well as to lovely restaurants with amazing sunsets and yoga options. The ladies who run Zodiac are incredibly helpful and kind. They were able to arrange taxis, motorbike rental and other local activities. This is the best place in Sri Lanka! We hope to come back soon. Thank you for the wonderful memories to Katerina, Sasha & Anastasia x

AustriaDuring my 20-day trip to Sri Lanka, I stayed in various hotels, but this one was the best experience of my journey! The cleanest, coziest, and most comfortable hotel I’ve been to. My only regret is that I saved it for the last two days. I wish I had spent more time here! And the food is simply amazing! The breakfasts are incredibly delicious, with a huge variety of options, enough to keep you full for the whole day. And the dinners—just unbelievable: big portions, incredible flavors, and every evening feels like a true gastronomic celebration. I also took the hotel’s recommendations, rented a tuk-tuk, and explored all the beaches in Tangalle. Now I can confidently say—this area has the most beautiful and stunning beaches! Excellent service, attentive staff, and an atmosphere that makes you want to come back. If you’re looking for the perfect place to stay—this is it! Thank you so much! I will definitely return!

Alexandra and her mother are beautiful hosts who looks after you from the moment you arrive. Breakfasts are delicious, filling and home cooked. Room was spotless and spacious. Close to silent beach (which we preferred to Tangalle beach) and only a short tuk tuk into Tangalle. It is quiet and peaceful due to being away from the business of Tangalle. Alexandra gave us a little treat on the way out , which was a homemade cake we both enjoyed!

United KingdomAll fabulous.
Large airy room with a huge balcony, great views and comfy furniture. Comfortable bed and a good shower with plenty of hot water. The breakfasts are huge and delicious - no need for lunch!! Who knew breakfast dessert was a thing 🤣 Great location, close to a selection of restaurants, a good coffee shop and several lovely beaches. The main reason we loved this guesthouse though was the beautiful family who run it. They were exceptional hosts, so friendly, welcoming and funny. They literally couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you Team Zodiak….we will definitely be back 💖

United KingdomNothing it was excellent
The guest house is in a brilliant location, we could walk easily to two beautiful beaches for swimming and snorkelling- we were given a snorkel to see the fish and turtles. The room and bathroom were large, airy and very clean. Everything was new and beautiful presented. The breakfast was enormous, very varied and delicious. We also tried some complimentary desert and cakes. Free water was provided for the whole stay. We enjoyed sitting in the pretty garden. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, they gave us useful tips about good beaches and restaurants and arranged transportation for us.

FranceWhat can I say ? The words are missing. As soon as we arrived, we felt like home. The kindness and the love of Caterina and Alexandra went straight to our heart. They do everything to make you feel at ease, sometimes more than a member of your family. Because when you go there, this is what happen, you will find a family. Everything was clean, new and beautiful. Everything was perfect. I’ll come back to Sri Lanka, and it’s sure I’ll come back to their place.

HungaryThe location was disappointing, the closer beach was distroyed because of recent weather conditions.
We loved the room! So beautiful and clean. There was hot water at all times which is rare in Sri Lanka. The owners were amazingly friendly and helpful. Breakfast was the best hotel breakfast we have ever had, everything home made and fresh.

PolandMy recent stay at this newly opened hotel, booked via booking.com, was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by the owners, Katherina and Aleksandra, who were the epitome of hospitality. Their friendliness and willingness to engage in conversation added a personal touch to my stay, making me feel more like a welcomed guest than just a customer. The hotel itself was impeccably clean and tidy, reflecting its brand-new status. Every corner of the hotel shone with cleanliness, and the modern amenities provided all the comforts of home. A highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the breakfast. I was treated to a sumptuous spread of various dishes, all delicious and prepared with care. The quality and abundance of the food provided a perfect start to my day. I can confidently recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a comfortable and friendly place to stay. The combination of Katherina and Aleksandra’s exceptional hospitality, the hotel’s pristine condition, and the delightful breakfast make it a top choice for any traveler

ChinaThere is no such thing
I stayed in this hotel for one day, it's a pity that I could not stay for a long time. I was afraid that there were no reviews, but I took a chance and was not mistaken. When I come back to Sri Lanka I will stay here. The hotel is new, just opened, very clean and comfortable, the rooms are spacious, there is nothing superfluous. The room is clean and white and has everything you need. Air conditioning works great, usually in other hotels with this problem. A big plus is that the shower has good water pressure. Upon arrival, I was upgraded to a room category at no extra charge, with a cozy balcony and ocean views. In the morning, a peacock knocked on the window, it was great. A trendy hotel. Thank you very much for the warm welcome. Upon arrival I was immediately offered a drink and given a cold face towel as it was hot. The hotel staff immediately spoke about the beaches that are located nearby. The ocean is within walking distance. The breakfast is big, filling and very tasty. The food I ordered for lunch and dinner was also very tasty. There is Wi-Fi in the restaurant. Thank you very much for the warm welcome. I will definitely come back here again and recommend to my friends.
