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.).

United KingdomNothing. Only recommendation would be to have a floor or table fan in the rooms. The weather was pleasant so the AC wasn't required always but a fan will help with ventilation.
Staff was very accommodating - they help you organise snorkelling and diving tours. The property is beach facing and it's a great place to stay to just relax on the beach.

The staff are all amazing and there is a real community feel. Waking up to the beach every morning is also a highlight! We will definitely be coming back here and highly recommend! Thanks so much!

Malaysia- mosquitos at night. couldn't just enjoy laying in the bed and let the doors open at night. - Sliding doors are see through. No total privacy where people walking by can still see you inside the room. It is especially not a pleasant condition for Muslim ladies like us. We need to cover ourselves in the room while enjoying the sea view with the drapes open. Tiongman, please consider putting on the tint where you can see outside clearly but people from the outside can't see you inside. I would have given 10/10 rating if it is not for this and if only there is a hair dryer provided, trash bag for the dustbin, mosquito coil, some hooks in the shower to hang towel & clothes. - location wise, there are not a lot of restaurants to choose from nearby and they are not open all the time. We arrived for check-in at around 3pm after a 2-hour ferry travel and took a rest. We hadn't had our lunch and couldn't find any open restaurants nearby at that time. We were starving! We got a bike and roam along the road and finally found place to eat. I think it is the only restaurant opens early. We had our meals at around 6pm at Juara Ocean Cafe which is at the end of the other side of the village. September is not a good time to go to Tioman because the weather is bad. For those who wants to go for snorkeling just by the beach, I suggest to stay at the other side of the island. Not Kg.Juara because it looks like beaches in Juara are wavy. Even there's no snorkeling point indicated in the map you get when you paid the marine conservation fee at the Tg.Gemok jetty.
We stayed in Deluxe Double Room with Balcony and Sea View and the sea view definitely worth it. I love chilling in front of my room and just enjoy the view, the sound of the waves, cats keeping me company. The resort location is more secluded and less busy with people walking around compared to the side along The Barat. It is quiet. In the room, you get a medium sized fridge, small bottles of soaps and shampoos, electric kettle and mugs, towels, hanging rack, water heater in the shower. Drinking water are available at their dive center beside. Restaurants and mini mart are just nearby in a walking distance. For breakfast, you can get easily from the restaurants just beside Tiongman. Bike rentals places available behind the resort. To get to the resort, you need land transport from Tekek jetty. The resort offers 4x4 pickup transfer with a price RM35/person per trip for locals. As the resort name itself, of course they offer scuba diving activities. Unfortunately for us, we can't go for a discovery dive because the water are too rough. Can't even snorkel so we don't get to see any fish & corals in Tioman. We don't have the time to catch to join snorkeling trip. We went for waterfall hike instead on our own. Last but not least, kudos to Mr.Rudy from Tiongman for giving us a welcoming feel. He picked us up from Tekek jetty. He is amazing. Friendly. He gave us some guide and tips of staying there and shows us around.

AustriaOverall it was great! There were just some garbage leftovers (waterbottles, paper) from earlier guests, but they were hidden under the bed so maybe they werent seen while cleaning. Maybe not good for people afraid of cockroaches or bigger spiders, but if you dont mind roommates then its all fine :)
the people at the lodge & scuba dive area were such amazing people - really open, friendly and try to make your stay as perfect as possible. The room itself was good, I liked the space! :)

SingaporeIts not too much of an issue for us. But pls note that since its in Juara beach, the property is on the other side of the island so you need to pretty much arrange your 4x4 transport which incurs extra cost.
The beach front lodge was pretty cosy. Waking up with the sunrise right in front of you is pretty amazing on its own. Staff and all dive masters are very friendly. Highly recommended.

FinlandClimate super humid so be prepared that clothes not dry fast :) check if the pillows etc has mold dots. I got an allergic reaction. Staff changed the pillow immediately when I noticed and asked. It seems like there is darkened windows in the room and curtains that give privacy. Check night time the visibility from outside. I realized that having lights on in my room, one can see in the room even curtains are there.
Extremely helpful staff!! Ac worked, hot water in shower. Really calm and clean beach.
