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.).

GermanyShort walk (2min) up the hill from the main road, 10min to Muri Lagoon (not really a disadvantage)
Wonderful Bungalow with everything you need. Very well equipped kitchenette, beds are comfortable, bathroom are modern and everything was very clean. Very good value for money compared to others in Rarotonga

New ZealandPlease replace bathroom towels etc. they are getting old and thin and a couple were stained. We had a lot of trouble finding the accommodation on our first day. Maybe a clear sign on the main road would help. Having a pair of scissors in the kitchen draw would be helpful.
Very spacious. Peaceful and a lovely view to the lagoon from the deck. Staff very helpful. Enjoyed the roosters wandering around. Nice big, comfortable bed. Great having free wifi.

New ZealandHaving to go up a hill each day to the accommodation. You need some sort of transport as too far away from shops. Lucky I had hired a bike. Nobody on site if you had a problem. Would have to message.
The accommodation had everything I needed. Was good to have a smart tv. Shower was nice and hot. Close to bus stop.

New ZealandProbably not the best place for light sleepers as the bungalows aren't very sound-proof - can hear the trees knocking against the roof (on windy nights) and the animals barking/roostering etc.
The bungalows were very lovely and clean! There's also helpful information they provide regarding local activities and the bus routine. Amazing location too.

AustraliaThe towels and bed linen are a bit worn, need to be replaced soon. The check in/out process wasn't explained clearly, we had a car so when we arrived, there was no staff around to explain to us. Only a sign with our name on the door, but that's it! No explanation on how to check in/out. Parking is tight like other guests said.
We had Bungalow 3, the room is spacious, clean and comfortable as pictured and has everything we need for our stay. They even include drinking water in the fridge for us. Tea/coffee, milk are also provided. The location is great, go down the hill and cross the road, you'll be in the centre of Muri shops, market, and beach. We did use the day pass at Muri Beach Club and had our dinner there, everything was explained clearly in the booklet left inside the bungalow.

We had Bungalow 2, it was beautiful inside with air-conditioning. A comfortable king size bed gave us lots of space. Rooms looked fresh and clean. Bathroom was new and shower was a bliss! Our view was great although maybe the ones behind us might of not been as good. Close location to Muri activities/ night markets/ shops for supplies. Would happily stay here again of we were coming to Muri beach

New ZealandThe tight parking. You can park if you have a small rental car or mopeds AND the other bungalow occupants are considerate. It’s not shaded so the car or moped seat gets hot!! (Thank goodness all rentals have amazing air con though, or you put a towel on the moped seat)
Space, balcony, cleanliness, location, peeps of Muri Lagoon, right sized fridge & freezer for a week stay, coconut hand soap and shampoo, swizzle seats on balcony, decor, cool floor tiles, privacy. Just about everything really :-)
