How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewEverything was perfect. The place was just so beautiful. Very modern and clean. I loved the interior design a lot. The kitchen was full equipped and they gave us towels for the beach as well. The distance to the city center and the beaches were no longer than 25 min. Ana and her daughter were super kind and very nice. They even let us store our language because we had a flight in the afternoon. We could have used the shower as well. All in all we loved our stay and hope to come back again 😊
Only thing that was missing was a place to dry the clothes (for example a drying rack). Besides that there was absolutely nothing negative!

Verified reviewIt was a magical place, well thought out, clean and had all the things we needed!
maybe a nice sign or where to turn before the dirt road street would be nice to know , in case people ever feel lost or even at night when its hard to see.
Dear Cinthia, Thanks a lot for your lovely review. I will take your suggestion into consideration. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to welcoming back in the future!

Verified reviewWe loved our stay and Ana is a fantastic host. She even let us check out late as we had an evening flight which we really appreciated. The apartment feels luxurious, the bathroom is huge, and we especially loved the outdoor kitchen and beautiful gardens. The location is really peaceful and only 10 min drive to the nearest beach.
The only reason I'm not giving a 10 is because the listing on booking.com is incorrect. Under the facilities and description for the 1 bedroom apartment it states 'this apartment's special feature is a pool with a view'. That isn't the case and the pool is exclusively for guests in the 3 bed villa in the same grounds. If no one is staying in the villa then other guests can use the pool, which we were able to do for a couple of days, but the description should be updated as I deliberately filtered & booked somewhere with a swimming pool (or so I thought).

Verified reviewThe place is perfect, ideal to disconnect from everything. The room is very comfortable and the bad room with the window in the ceiling to see the sky is a really beautiful detail. Ana is a great host, really kind and always available to make our visit the best ever.
Nothing to say here :)

Verified reviewAna was super friendly and even the Beach bag is prepared. Many small details you would not even think about were taken care of. The garden is beautiful and we saw a lot of different animals. The kitchen was well equipped also.
Nothing to complain about. Just an advise: A rental car is highly recommended.

Verified reviewi liked how the host of the property received me at her place, she was super happy to receive me at her place for my stay and gave me a lot of information over her place and garden. accommodate me for anything i need or want she will try her hardest to make it happen for her quest.she has an amazing conception and lay out cause she is making a out door kitchen. a perfect get away place that i know of on the island for an quiet, beautiful, get away location. she gave a great support & help to me so i could've surprise my girlfriend.
it is not in her hands,the road to this amazing place is a dirt road and was not a smooth ride to the place but for anything else nothing to say cause everything was exceptional and fun stay at her beautifull place
