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.).

NetherlandsOne downside was the evenings. Music only three times a week. If there was music, it was all over by 9:30 PM. There wasn't much around the resort, so we had to go to bed early. Such a shame. We booked through Booking.com, and they advertised live music. And evening entertainment. Unfortunately, we didn't see any of that.
Wonderful stay. Very friendly staff. Beautiful location. Clean room.

United KingdomWe paid for a sea view room but the room we got could be described as a partial sea view at best which I was really disappointed about. We did get moved the next day to a room with a better (elevated) sea view. Be aware some ‘sea view’ rooms are ground level and are set back from the sea. Not the hotels fault but every time you leave the boundary of the resort you are hassled non stop by people selling things - can’t take a walk along the beach without being followed and constantly ‘sold’ to. The hotel have security on the beach to stop this within the resort ( thank goodness) but it is Very off putting when you are out and about and unfortunately means I am unlikely to visit Zanzibar again.
Lovely facilities, staff were really excellent. Cocktails and food are excellent. We were all inclusive which I would highly recommend.

NetherlandsThere is not much to do around the resort, especially at night. At the resort there was some live music on 2 of the 7 nights (weekend) we stayes there and it quit at 21.00-21.30 (which is quite early in our opinion). Not much of a party. Only one bar open after 7 pm. We found the staff at the swim up bar more friendly and more fun than the staff at the beach bar.
The resort is beautiful and luxurious. The staff is very attentive and helpful. We had a great time at the swim up bar by the pool. Shout out to bartender Raphael for taking good care of us! Also the location with the private beach was very nice. Beautiful sunset views guaranteed!

RomaniaI had an absolutely wonderful stay at this resort! Everything exceeded my expectations – the hotel is beautiful, with excellent facilities that offer both comfort and relaxation. The à la carte restaurant was a delightful surprise – delicious food, beautifully presented and impeccably served. A big highlight was Miss Elif, the manager – such a warm and professional presence. We had a lovely conversation, and thanks to her, I got a dream room with a stunning sea view. It made a huge difference in my overall experience! I wholeheartedly recommend this resort and will definitely return!

PortugalThere are a lot of people trying to sell tours, literally waiting in the stairs to the beach. This is not the hotel fault, but it is still annoying and the beach is not that private (they do have security people, but they can only do so much).
The hotel is amazing, the pool, room and restaurant are very nice and the same as you see in the pictures. Every facility was clean. The food and drinks was really good, especially the cocktails.

CanadaThe main issue is the unreliable Wi-Fi, which made it difficult for me to stay connected during my 5-day visit. For anyone who requires a stable internet connection, I would suggest looking elsewhere; personally, I wouldn't stay here again. This appears to be more of an infrastructure issue, as the tech guy came to my room at least three times, even at late hours, to fix it. Clearly, improving the Wi-Fi would make a big difference. This also indicates the hotel's awareness of the problem, given previous reviews and their readiness to send a tech guy even at late hours.
I would both recommend and not recommend this hotel, depending on individual needs. Wifi is the major problem (see below). That said, I was very pleased with the rooms, service, management, food, and drinks. For guests who don’t require dependable internet access, I would definitely recommend the hotel.

BangladeshIt seems that the management is going through some sort of transitions. Hence, various cracks surfaced in service quality. In one of the days Internet in the room went off and it took 4 hours to get it fixed, however, the main problem was lack of clear response from the front desk. The transmission quality of television channels in the room was awe fully bad. The waiting time for any meal at the restaurant was long and the bar was not well stocked..
The location is amazing. The facility was clean and comfortable.The food quality at the restuarant was good, however, the waiting time was too long. Not sure if hunger made it taste better or not.

NetherlandsThe furniture is old, and here and there damaged. It has wooden floor and with everything else from wood keeps the moist very high and it gets a weird smell. The breakfast is not too great for a 4 star hotel, especially that you have to pay for any drinks that you want besides water (e.g. coffee). Dinners are better but not great either, however sometimes they have good food. The mattress is terrible, woke up with back pain every morning. A bit disappointing for a Marriott chain hotel...
The location is nice, front beach hotel enjoying the beautiful turquoise water views.
