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 KingdomThe staff were nice however felt a little sometimes that they were a bit too much in your business of what you were doing. Ate here on our first night but the food was very overpriced for what we got. There was dance type music played a lot of the time so not as peaceful as expected and got woken up very early by someone sweeping our doorstep a couple of mornings.
The fact the property is on the beach just felt like paradise! A bit far from el Nido town but we found it a fantastic location! The rooms are nice, clean, good bathroom facilities and staff were helpful.

NetherlandsNothing to say, everything was fine.
I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful place for 2.5 weeks, and I’m absolutely delighted! The location is perfect—right on the beach, which I could enjoy at any time of day. The beach itself is long, wide, and clean, making walks or lazy sunbathing a real pleasure. The surroundings are peaceful and quiet, allowing for complete relaxation with the soothing sound of waves in the background. The property is spotlessly clean, and the bathrooms are tidied up daily—a huge plus! A lovely extra touch was the complimentary morning coffee, which was a perfect way to start each day. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful—always ready with advice and making sure I felt right at home. And the food was delicious. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable getaway, away from the crowds but with the sea at their doorstep and a fantastic atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back! ❤️ 10/10 – an outstanding experience! 🌟

South KoreaLong time waiting for food but not always
This is a peaceful place that is yet to be developed. The owners do their best to make your stay comfortable. Yes, there is glass on the beach, which should be noted. Getting there is expensive 😫 but worth the time and patience as the beach develops restaurants, pop-up rubber bands, and sticky tape are replaced by efficiency, and beach bums will find another peaceful place to snooze hugs Pam

PhilippinesI like the modern style of bathroom it’s sparkling clean which you can use comfortably anytime. The restaurant serves good and delicious food with an affordable price. We stayed just for a night yet the staff gave a luxurious service! Always smiling and approachable. They are attending to our needs every time. The room has an aesthetic vibe, and you can hear the sound of the waves like a lullaby, gently lulling you to sleep. It’s a perfect place whenever you need peace and serenity. I will definitely go back to this place next time with my friends. You should definitely come here!!!

PolandWhat we didn’t like about the property: Our stay at Bucana Beach House was extremely disappointing and far from what was advertised. Here are the main issues we faced: 1. False Advertising: The property was not as described or shown in the listing. The second bedroom was an open attic with no privacy, and the mattresses were simply placed on the floor. The advertised kitchen had no stove, fridge, or toaster, making it impossible to prepare our own meals. 2. Substandard Conditions: There were holes in the walls, exposed electrical cables, and leaking plumbing in the bathroom. The toilet wasn’t connected to running water, so we had to fill it manually. 3. Air Conditioning Issues: The attic had no air conditioning on the first night, and when it was provided the next day, the room remained unbearably hot due to unsealed windows, a gap between the roof and walls, and broken glass above the doors. The air conditioning in the second bedroom was old, loud, and malfunctioned during our stay. 4. Hygiene Problems: Ants were coming into the bathroom through a hole in the shower area, and the overall cleanliness of the property was poor. 5. Accessibility Issues: We were not informed that the property had no car access. On the first night, we had to wade through water to cross a hanging bridge and walk on a muddy path to reach the location. 6. Extra Charges: The advertised free airport shuttle was not provided, and we were charged PHP 1,500 for the transfer. 7. Communication Problems: Some staff struggled with English, which led to issues such as incorrect meal orders. Additionally, the menu did not have prices, so we had no idea how much we would be charged for meals. 8. Disrupted Plans: Due to these conditions, two members of our group left early, causing significant disruption to our plans and added stress. Overall, the property was in no condition to accommodate guests, and the experience was extremely disappointing. We expected far better based on the listing.
