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 Arab EmiratesAll the hotel staff are super helpful. However, the morning reception staff are not flexible. I have paid almost 12k AED for 2 nights, and they refused to extend 60 min for the checkout !

United KingdomThe only negative was lots of children but we went during half term so had to expect that.
The location was excellent. Resort not too big with just the right amount of bars and restaurants. Beach is incredible and imo better than any caribbean beach I have visited. Food was amazing - so much choice and very high quality, especially the “a-la-carte” restaurants. The rooms are excellent with great facilities and cleanliness. The service is outstanding and is quite honestly the best I have ever experienced. Tipping was not standard but we certainly tipped on more than a few occasions due to how brilliant the service was. Overall I couldnt fault it and I have officially run out of superlatives for this review. Definitely a must visit.

IsraelDisappointing Experience, Not Worth the Price I recently stayed at this hotel with my family and unfortunately had a very negative experience. The food quality was poor, not meeting the expectations for the price. To make matters worse, our room had a strong, unpleasant moldy smell that made it difficult to enjoy our stay. Additionally, we had friends over for drink, but even though we paid 500 AED per person, they were followed everywhere by security men and could hear them reporting their every move on the radio they were treated as though they were intruders. This made them and made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome, which was extremely disappointing. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel due to these issues.
Good location. Nice beach

FinlandI think only development requirement is pricing of spa treatments. Spa it self is fantastic, but the prices for the treatments are too expensive. +200 € per 50min massage is too much. Hotels next door seem to offer 1h massage for 130€
Pretty much everything works as you would expext or better. The staff was great and still relaxed 🤗

United KingdomWe had a two bedroom apartment- overlooked by all the rooms above - not as private as we had hoped for. Not enough vegan options available and none labelled. Beach was crowded and noisy.
The food was exceptional especially the gala dinners - but not for vegans. The facilities great - the kids club and waterpark incredible. Entertainment was excellent. Easy to get a taxi or uber to malls and attractions. Beach had soft white sand.
