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.).

SwedenNothing. Everything was superb.
Exception stay in a great location ! We absolutely appreciated all the hospitality touches at this villa. Everything was thought through to the tiny detail so you can just arrive and enjoy the stay. The host was also exceptional and very welcoming. We were traveling with our toddler and this place was ideal. They accommodated us with cot and high chair. The area outside was spacious and he loved running around there. The neighborhood itself was great. Just minutes to the beach, supermarkets, cafes and the gorgeous boardwalk (our favorite!). Can recommend 10/10. We will be coming back to this villa for sure if we travel back to Cyprus.

United KingdomThere was nothing not to like. We should have asked for quilts for beds as the weather at the time was cooler in evenings. A downstairs stair gate would have been great with toddler but I’m not sure this would be possible with house design and again only as we had a 1 year old a gate or similar to enclose the grass area from pool would have been nice but this had no negative impact on our holiday.
Lovely quiet gated area. Lovely clean pool with the option to heat. Lovely garden beautiful evening lighting with a variety of areas to sit. Kids playhouse and seats. Well equipped kitchen, toilets upstairs and downstairs. Cot upstairs and downstairs. Plenty storage. Lovely pillows. Bath and shower. Upstairs stair gate. Able to lock windows.Fantastic owner he kept the pool clean and was contactable at anytime to help with anything.

Amazing villa in the perfect location with the best host ever! On the doorstep of plenty of great restaurants and bars and on a bus route to Protaras Strip and Ayia Napa. Spotlessly clean throughout and everything you need for your stay. Linen was changed halfway through our stay too which was a lovely touch. Savvas is a brilliant host and treated us to wine, cheese, bread and fresh figs. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!

United KingdomNothing - it was perfect for us
We had a fantastic stay at this villa. Communication with Chris was easy and quick, and his father greeted us on arrival. He was very friendly and even went out of his way to bring us fresh figs—such a lovely gesture! The villa is very well maintained and spotlessly clean throughout. From the kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms to the linens. For families, especially those with young children, this villa is ideal. It’s equipped with all the essentials like a stair gate, high chair, cots, and even garden toys. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. The location is also good—close to the sea with restaurants and bars within walking distance. The swimming pool is a great size, very clean, and regularly maintained. We enjoyed the outdoor covered dining and seating areas, which provided a perfect spot for relaxing and dining al fresco. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient holiday home.

The host was very thoughtful & considerate. He clearly takes great pride in maintaining the villa to a high standard. There was a lovely bowl of fruit and a bottle of wine waiting for us. He came over near the end of our holiday with a box of loukoumades, the Cyprus dessert speciality. The villa was well laid out, spacious, the kitchen was extremely well equipped. There were ample towels. The villa was also well-equipped for a family with young children; cot, high chair and stair gate. The local area had enough going on to be interesting and enjoyable without the over-the-top plastic tourism of Protaras itself. We ate out several times and made good use of the villa’s barbeque. It was an excellent location with 2 lovely beaches just a short walk away. They had none of the elbow-to-elbow crowdedness of Sunset beach or Fig tree bay.

United KingdomNothing, everything was fantastic!
We were met by the lovely helpful owner who showed us around the property and put us at ease. We are a family of four adults and a toddler, so the garden was perfect for the little one to run around, with the pergola seating area offering plenty of shade. The pool area was clean, with the pool itself being a great size for all of us. The dining area outside alsi came in handy for alfresco duning. The villa was clean & comfortable with everything we needed, including baby gate & a cot. Its vitrually around the corner from the main street where there are plenty of places to eat, and drink, with the beach being 5 minutes walk away down the other end of the street. We woukd definitley stay here again, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We could not have asked for more. The host was lovely and provided us with lots of local information and guidance- we could not have asked for more. This was an amazing place for our family holiday and I will definitely come back in the future.

Frist of all, the communication with Chris and his father Savvas was super fluid and easy. They are without any doubt super hosts. They answered our requested swiftly and without hesitation. Hats off to an amazing service ! The Villa is well positioned in Pernera, in other words: -2 min walk to the beach -4 min walk to the bus station -1 min walk to the nearest supermarket -3 km away from Protaras city centre which u can reach by foot, bus or taxi. -Restaurants all around the Villa as the main strip of Pernera is 2 min walk -Baby, Kid & Child friendly Villa and at the same time suitable for couples -Amazing pool, great green space & a lovely pergola with a BBQ facility (just like in the pictures) -Kitchen very well equipped. The smallest details are well thought of -Wifi of excellent quality

Estonia- The lighting in the rooms was a little bit dark for the dark evenings. - Outside the season, most of the nearby restaurants and shops are closed. - You need to pay extra for the pool and house heating. But it is probably not an issue for the summer season.
- The host was super friendly and helpful. - Although the pool heating was not working on the first day, the host came and fixed it on the next one. The pool was warm even on the not-so-hot days and kids could really enjoy this. - House is big and bright, very well equipped for families with small kids. In the backyard, there is a slide and playing house, indoors we were provided with a high chair, two cribs, and a potty for the small one. Also, there was a gate on the stairs on the second floor. - Kitchen was very well equipped. - Very nice beach and a promenade nearby. - Wolt and Bolt couriers (and even the host) brought lots of great food to the villa :)
