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.).

OmanThe beach villas are outdated, however the staff made up for that. I just wish we could go to other restaurants for some of the meal and not be limited to the same place for all meals.
The island is really Paradise, and the staff is hospitable. Many thanks to hotel manager Najeeb who went all the way to make sure we were happy and had a good stay. Also the buffet has a variety of options and the staff especially the assistant manager Mr.Aman & his team Jangaheer from Bangladesh and Praveen from India. The pool is great too!

TurkeyWhen we decided to travel to the Maldives, we did a lot of research. Two of my friends had already been there before, and both said they would love to go again. After seeing Villa Nautica, I completely understood why. Everything was so beautiful and enjoyable. Discovering the stunning beauty of the Maldives in such a wonderful place felt like pure luck. We stayed in a Deluxe Beach Pool Villa and were extremely satisfied. Privacy was important to us, so we requested a curtain in front of our villa, and the support team came immediately to set it up. Our room, garden, and pool were carefully cleaned every single day. From the moment we checked in, AZHA was always by our side. No matter how our request was, she handled everything quickly and with great kindness. We were initially a bit worried about the food, but the talented chefs and the wide variety of dishes exceeded our expectations. Every day we enjoyed something different and delicious salads, fresh fruits, desserts, and especially the grill station. You never need to worry about the food here. Don’t forget to bring goggles and a snorkel. Swimming in the sea and watching all the colorful fish is simply breathtaking. Walking around the resort, every staff member greeted us with a smile and was always respectful and helpful. We experienced tropical rain three times; it came down quickly and passed just as fast. Honestly, it added a unique charm to our stay. Villa Nautica stands out from many other resorts. You can choose it with complete peace of mind. Thank you for everything!

We stayed a week (23-29 of August) at Villa Nautica and nothing could go better. We spent 4 nights in a beach villa bungalow and 2 night in an over-water villa. Everything was excellent, starting from the arrival in Male airport till to our departure; the beach bungalow was very nice, clean and large and the over-water villa excellent. The staff is amazing, with a customer care exceptional. In particular way we'd like to mention and thank SWETA, our island host, GEETHIKA, restaurant manager and ANIL KUMAR, the cleaning man assigned at our room. It was a first stay in Maldives, but for sure we'll be back as soon as possibile.

United Arab EmiratesI stayed for 5 nights and overall the experience was good. I tried the spa three times and it was absolutely wonderful each time. I also joined the fishing trip which was very enjoyable. The staff were amazing – very kind and professional. Special thanks to Mr. Mahdi and the team at the main restaurant for their warm and friendly service. The food was fine, I would rate it 8/10. There was some variety, but most of the options were vegetarian and seafood was very limited. During our whole week’s stay, they served only one type of fish. The only downside was the cleanliness of the bed sheets, pillowcases, and covers. Even when housekeeping changed them, the replacements still had permanent stains or marks.

The resort is simply outstanding and truly one of the best in the Maldives, if not the very best. The beach is soft with white sand, and the crystal-clear blue waters are breathtaking. The staff are professional, warm, and welcoming, making you feel like part of a family — always smiling and cheerful. Special thanks to Mr. Mahdi, who went above and beyond to assist and welcome us, to Mr. Helin from housekeeping for the excellent service, and to the reception team who were always ready to help with any request or feedback. Everything is well-organized, neat, and clear, making our stay absolutely perfect. Thank you all for such an unforgettable experience. 🌴💙

GreeceThe room cleanliness could have been a bit better. It wasn’t bad, but the cleaning could be improved. However, all the common areas of the hotel were very clean, so overall the impression was positive.
The food was excellent, with a rich variety and high-quality products. There were plenty of different cuisines and flavors, making it easy for everyone to find something they enjoyed. Both lunch and dinner included a nice selection of oriental dishes, which was a great addition. The beach was simply beautiful, with stunning colors and crystal-clear waters. It was full of marine life — lots of fish, sharks, and rays — and the clean seabed made snorkeling an unforgettable experience.

Czech RepublicWe can definitely recommend staying at Villa Nautica. The first advantage is the proximity of the resort from Male, just less than 20 minutes by motorboat. The quality of service is really high, the food is varied and very tasty. Everyone will find something for themselves here, beautiful snorkeling among baby sharks, manta rays, stingrays, sports activities (tennis, gym, squash, badminton, table tennis, beach volleyball, basketball) etc., beautiful SPA, nice boat trips, special restaurants etc... You will find both beautiful beaches, where you are almost alone or vibrant life by the amazing pool, where you will not be kept waiting long for any drink. A big thank you goes to the staff, who are really friendly and fully professional without exception. And finally, a special thanks goes to our island guide Ajlan, who willingly arranged anything for us at any time, and to Helan, whose precise cleaning and joy of work was inspiring. Thank you all for wonderful holiday. Martin and family

UkraineThe lagoon is smaller than I expected and there are many sharks. There were a lot visitors from Russia who steal your buggy (and the drivers have hard time to explain them that it’s not appropriate as those guys don’t know any English and don’t care about other people inconvenience), always complain about how bad the hotel is, and order strange music from the previous millennium. Kind of party poopers. Maldives is usually a happy place with happy tourists, this time it was different. Next time I’ll check this point before booking.
The location is very close to Male so you arrive to the hotel very quickly. The hotel itself is clean, comfortable, well designed. The infinity pool is very Instagram-compliant, the staff is professional (kudos to Rishwaan, good job), fun and smart. The food is great, a great choice of meals from all over the world. Reef fish is something everyone should try!
