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.).

MalaysiaCheck-in was slow—although it was supposed to be at 3 PM, I only received my room key at 5 PM. Despite being an old resort, it has potential and could be quite nice with better maintenance of its facilities.
It was a nostalgic stay, reminding me of when my parents used to bring us here as kids. A peaceful and uncrowded hotel with a bit of privacy—decent for a short stay.

MalaysiaBreakfast crowded, Not much choices and food run out fast. No Tea Tarik only coffee. Not enough time for karaoke. Prefer private karaoke with family friendly. Renovation ongoing and call shuttle takes so long to arrived. I think during Holiday, Nexus need to add more staffs. Need to add lighting to lite the junction at the main junction from the main road. Don't like additional matters must buy breakfast.
Nexus is improving compare to my previous stay. Love the promotional price. Clean Beach with good waves. Love the pools. Love the quite environment.

SpainThere was a lack of information. We arrived later in the evening, but only got told where to eat breakfast. There wasn’t an information pack in the room. We had to ask what building was open as the sunset bar was closed. We did discover Darlin darlin , but they offered limited snacks.
We loved the location. The staff were friendly and helpful. Even though renovations are in full swing it didn’t detract too much from the gentle ambiance of the place. We enjoyed a short walk to the golf course and had a very nice lunch 🥗 Club sandwich 🥪 and a cold beer . The pool was lovely apart from what looked like an old jacuzzi which was full of mud and probably a host to mosquitoes…this was a shame

AustraliaWill be great if able to adjust the air cond to swing - as it is blowing directly to my face when sleep and make me feel very uncomfortable. I have to use a chair to manually adjust the vent and it's hard to do that. Our room is far from the lobby and my mum who is a bit old find it difficult to walk a few times a day from room to lobby / restaurant / beach and vice versa. Didn't know it's cheaper to book direct.

FinlandThroughout the stay, numerous dishes and beverages were frequently unavailable across restaurants, sometime even half of the items on the menu were unavailable. Also only under half of the restaurants at the resort were open.
Very beautifull garden and resort area • Excellent beach cleanliness regarding sea debris. • Well-stocked resort shop. • Use of spa showers post-checkout, a valuable guest service.

AustraliaDownside was the resort is under significant renovation which I was not aware of at time of booking and only realised upon arrival. We had to request room change as we were initially placed in the wing of the hotel that was under construction with work being undertaken between 8am and 6pm daily. The noise was too loud to remain in our room. The renovations also meant half of the restaurant’s and hotel services were closed. The resort, especially the pool have seen better days but the cost and the stunning views of the South China Sea and luxurious grounds full of monkeys and monitor lizards made up for this.
The grounds of the resort were stunning and among the best locations of any resort I have stayed in the world.

MalaysiaThere is no staff to greet guests upon arrival at the main lobby. Maybe because this resort has been around for a long time, there are some equipment that is not working properly, such as the bathtub and lights. However, after notifying the reception, they sent maintenance staff to restore it.
An interesting place for a relaxing holiday away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Beautiful private beach, swimming pool for children. Various activities are available for a certain fee. There is a stunning seaside golf course.

GermanyIt’s very worn down and many things seem nice and pretty but if you look closer it doesn’t look that nice anymore. Many tiles at the pool are missing (sharp edges), the slide might hurt the kids, everywhere where metal is involved it is rusted. The rooms look nice but don’t look too closely on details… my guess is that there was no maintenance since the many years. That’s how it looks like. The noise in the room from the ac and fridge are very loud. The showerhead does not look very clean and hygienic and the ventilation in our bathroom didnt work. The pictures are probably taken many years ago.
The personal were always friendly and eager to help. The pool is big and the beach is for guests only. Since it’s far from the city or next hotel there are no other people on the beach except the guests.
