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.).

New ZealandWe did do the 3days/2nights tour and probably would not recommend it but rather go for the shorter 2days/1night version. As most people book this sort of trip, the boat barely ever gets filled with people doing the longer trip and returns to the harbour every day to get new people on board. Hence for our second day we got shipped onto another boat for the day and joined the newcomers in the afternoon while they were doing what we did the day before. This was rather unfortunate as the other tour we had to join was a bigger day-tour with a lot of people on board - precisely the sort of thing we were trying to avoid by booking a shorter cruise on a small vessel. We still had a good time but it wasn’t really what we intended. It’s also a bit sad to leave the people you just got to know behind after only one day. I would advise to talk to the agency beforehand and only book the longer trip if you stay with the same people on the same boat for the entire duration.
The boat is absolutely wonderful as is the cruise and the stunning scenery. All the crew are really nice and the activities you do along the way are great fun without feeling overwhelming or rushed. As there’s just five cabins on the boat it is rather quiet and you get to know your fellow travellers. We’ve had a really good time. Also Nam is an excellent guide and an all-round funny guy. We got along with him very well. The food is excellent and the swimming spots are nice. We also had a good time catching squid and preparing fresh sashimi.

FranceWe had an amazing experience on the Sunlight Cruise with Nam! He was incredibly kind, fun, and always had a great sense of humor, making the whole trip even more enjoyable. Nam was very attentive and serviceable, always making sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. His positive energy really made a difference. I highly recommend experiencing the cruise with him — you’re guaranteed to have a wonderful and memorable time!

New ZealandIt's hard to think of anything we didn't enjoy. So, the only thing I didn't like was having to pay for drinking water.
I highly recommend booking the 2 night - 3 day cruise. It was so special, and that extra day is the best! We also really liked that it was a small boat - just five cabins. Overall, the experience was great. The views were incredible, and the activities were fun. The food was delicious and very generous. We had an issue with our cabin, which was quickly fixed, and then we loved it. In fact, the cabin was better than we expected. The staff were great. Very friendly and helpful.

United StatesThe room 202 has engine smell all through the trip. Dining table was too tight for 13 people. I wish the crew would just clean trash on deck at the end of the day. I would have prefer they cook Vietnamese version of the food rather than European versions. No wifi for us through the whole trip.
LAN ha bay is just incredible beautiful. The tour guide Nam was super helpful. He accommodated my senior parents during activities so they were able to enjoy the trip. They had assorted seafood for dinner.

SpainThere’s new people coming and leaving everyday so you have to wait for new groups in the harbour wasting your time. Try to avoid Monkey Island visit, it’s just a little island full of rubbish, no monkeys, they take us there in a very noise little boat with strong petrol smell. Bright Cave is nice but very crowded.
Big room with comfortable bed, nice food variety and quantity. Drinks no included but not extremely expensive. Activities included: love riding bikes and kayaking.
