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 reviewExcellent breakfast. Greatest asset of Kololi Beach Resort, however, is its staff. So nice and helpful. Good people.
Considering the price not much could have been better. You do get a lot for your money here.

Verified reviewThe location is great, just by the beach. Loved the beach, not too crowded. The place felt safe too.
-The wifi is terrible -No phones in the rooms, so you have always have to walk a distance outside to the reception if you needed help with something. -No television

Verified reviewVery pleasant environment, room was good, pools and beach were lovely. Some healthier choices on the restaurant menu.
My original room was opposite a noisy nightclub, had to pay more to move to a (very nice) room closer to the beach. Service was appaulingly slow - took over 40 minutes to bring two teas.

Verified reviewThe grounds were fantastic, good location to the beach. Guys around pool getting sunbeds and towels for you were great. Location of the hotel brilliant. The size of the apartments in the Springs block were a good size. Clean but tired.
The location of the Stones building block Too noisy . We upgraded to the Springs apartments and these were far better. Didn't like the fact that there were no changing facilities at the pool. Had to use the toilet to change out of wet swimwear, which was not ideal. The pool and pathways around the site could use some much need maintenance. Bar staff in the salt restaurant very slow.

Verified reviewIt was near the beach with a lot of restaurants around.
The room was full of cockroaches, coming from the bedsheets and everywhere....we had such a bad experience at night. We returned to the apartment after the reception had closed, and we had to contact the security where they called the boss/ manager to give us another room. They were super helpful, and I understand that in such an area it's normal to have insects, but the amount of cockroaches that we had in the room, and how they were coming out of bed, gave us a nightmare.

Verified reviewNice staff. Convenient location. A lot of shops and restaurants were close by. Police checkpoints also keep the place secure.
Music can be very loud at night. I believe it comes from night clubs across the street. Some nights I couldn’t sleep until 3 or 4 am. This is the only reason I didn’t give the place a 10/10. There was also a time the water shut off in the building for an hour. They fixed it though but it was unexpected and an inconvenience.

Verified reviewThe location is excellent
We booked a room for 3, but when we arrived it was for 2. Just an extra bed was added, but no towels, no third chair on the balcony (this also never arrived after asking), towels for 2 (had to ask twice for an extra set)
