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.).

United KingdomAs a couple, it was definitely a family hotel - heaps of children. It wasn’t bad, but hard to curate a romantic vibe.
The staff were superb, so lovely. Lots of options to relax by the pool or private beach. Very easy to arrange activities through companies in the hotel.

United KingdomThe Flavours Buffet was very busy when we ate there so the following day we chose to order room service for breakfast but it was cold on arrival. It had obviously been prepared quickly but sat there for a while before being bought up.
The majority of staff were amazing. Ivana was truly lovely and helpful. They have a no sunbed reservation policy and they implement it which was fantastic as it meant there was always a sunbed available for guests at any time of the day.

FranceBecause there was a leak in our room we had to change room twice. But this was carried out without a hitch in the end.
Almost everything. I mostly appreciated the friendliness and willingness of the staff to help out whenever there was an issue. Special thank you goes to Ankit and Reana both extremely professional and capable persons. Thank you!

Great beach and quiet natural surroundings all around. Nevertheless still easy to access the other main points of the island. Very spacious hotel, nice restaurants and terraces.

The hotel is located a bit away from the towns and cities, so think about transportation. Otherwise the location is nice - on a cliff, nice view if you are located on the sea side. The hotel staff, reception, cleaning staff are really helpfull, friendly and professional. Mr. Henri from the Flavours restaurant was something extra - complementary champagne, always kind, helpful, polite and curteous. The services are decent - small gym, small deli, laundry (extra pay), game’s room (extra pay). Pools (small indoor and three small outdoor) are decent as well. Sauna is for 4 people but we did not like windows (feels like you are on display, when people are walking pass the sauna). The Spa is decent but a bit overpriced. The restaurants have good variety of food, tasty but not exquisite, and again a bit overpriced (dinner for 3 at Flavours costs round 110€). No complaints regarding the rooms - comfortable with kitchenette with utensils and pots, small fridge (with a small icebox compartment), microwave and sink. Lastly the private beach is most of the times nice (sand, but can also have a bit much seaweed), so we went further up the coast line - no seaweed and almost no people.

SwitzerlandPublic spaces of the hotel too cold. Really too cold. It’s too much and you can get a cold easily Interior pool and spa too noisy with people using their mobile phones with loud sound and children using the facilities at hours that they are not allowed Although the breakfast is amazing and great price/quality, the buffet in the evening is too expensive for the quality

United KingdomThe rooms are a little dated, and a lot of things around the hotel that would have existed when it was new, are no longer working. The gym is slightly sub-par for such a large hotel - very few weights with many sizes missing, and old and quite dirty gym mats - just generally slightly neglected, which is a shame as it was popular and clearly wanted.
The staff were very good, especially in Moka. The food was also great in all the restaurants we visited.

RomaniaThe location, first of all is ideal for families with kids that want to go the beach. The hotel is impressive, although is not a new one and it has accommodated many tourits. Still, the location on the beach and having also its private beach (you literally take the elevator to the beach!) is priceless! The cleanliness is top, one can see it’s a priority. Breakfast is great, anyone, even the worst of Grinch can find something to eat. There is a pletora of good food, healthy food, fruits, cookies, drinks, anything one can think of one can surely find at breakfast. The staff is all so nice snd smiling all the time and ready to assist you in whatever you may need. Everyone is so friendly! This hotel offers you everything you may need for a relaxing stay at the seaside: different restaurants, live music, outdoor pools, indoor pool, kids pool, sauna, massage, daily activities with / for the kids, inside shops, games room, you name it and they have it! We loved our stay and we highly recommend it!
