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 reviewBeautiful view, clean and spacious property.
Horrible service. Very low efforts on their behalf in terms of communication. We have contacted them multiple times for various matters, including things they asked us to communicate to them about, all for them to leave us feeling helpless and anxious after they don’t respond to us or respond at the absolute last minute or just way too late. Time and time again we contacted them, relied on them to help us or to accomodate to us in simple ways, only for them to not show up and leave us stranded.

Verified reviewWe recently stayed at the Amaya Serenity Villa and truly enjoyed many aspects of our visit. The view, private pool, and location were absolutely excellent, and the villa provided a spacious and comfortable setting for our family.
However, there are a few areas that we feel need attention in order to meet the standards expected of a top-tier property: • Breakfast: The quality were well below expectations for a luxury property of this level. Improvements in both presentation and offerings would be greatly appreciated. • Towels: The towels provided were extremely worn and rough, which significantly detracted from the comfort of our stay. • Sunbeds: The Sun-beds were outdated and in need of replacement or refurbishment to meet the premium standard advertised. We hope these comments are helpful in your continued efforts to improve the guest experience. Thank you for your attention.

Location: at least 10 min walk from the nearest parking. The road to the property was full of steps and narrow roads. It can be slippery with poor lighting at night Room: The room had several ducts that were filled with plastic bags. Single washroom for 4 people. Kitchen:Utensils and plates were of different shapes and kinds. Old kettle. Breakfast : very unpleasant. Manager: was very slow in responding to our questions and quires, takes more than 24 hours to answer a simple question

Verified reviewThey have many units in two different parts of Oia. Manager Ezenii upgraded our room to a quieter location (Bliss unit) when we arrived. We originally booked the Windmill, but it was right in front of the main pedestrian pathway, not exactly what we were looking for. Johnny was very helpful and provided great suppport during our stay. Bliss is a a few minutes from the Castle foe the sunset and many restaurant options.

Verified reviewThe location of the property is excellent, very close to the venetian castle for the infamous Oia sunset view. The view of the calderas of the whole island is spectacular, and being able to soak it all in while dipping in the outdoor hot tub is simply an out of this world experience! The service is excellent as the maintenance room is on the right of the villa, and the kitchen for breakfast is on the left, what more do you want. Special thanks to Johnny who met us and carried our suitcase on his shoulder to and fro the post office.

Verified reviewThe location works fine. Calm area with a view.
The pictures aren’t really representative of what I got. There was not enough privacy for the hot tub and the sun beds. The windmill doesn’t look like a windmill. A lot less charming than what I thought I was going to get. Was not worth the price. They talk about reception and breakfast? My breakfast came once maybe at 10 or 11 am? I was gone hiking. I wanted to spend 2 nice nights in Oia but was disappointed.

The manager was rude when I complained about breakfast. The breakfast was brought to us at 7.10am waking everyone up in the house. It was boiled eggs and cold toasties.

Verified reviewBeautiful caldera view and amazing volcano sea view. Main street of OIA is very nearby to the Villa. The stay was amazing and comforting. Though there was some wifi issues and it was difficult for us to connect to our friends and family however I took it as a pros since it helped to enjoy our vacation more without using internet. Ezeni was very helpful and she was available on WhatsApp or calls whenever needed. We felt safe and comfortable in the Villa. I would definitely recommend Amaya to upcoming visitors because I felt that Amaya is so much focussed on making the stay comfortable and happy. It was an amazing location and yes also best for the sunset views.
