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.).

Everything!! The resort was fabulous, the food selection was great and the staff were absolutely incredible!! Such lovely and caring people. The staff made my experience a whole lot better! The snorkeling was outstanding! Along with their other activities. Saw so many sharks, sting rays, star fish and other beautiful fishes. The accommodation was absolutely stunning!! Pictures don’t do the place justice. Truly an unforgettable experience. A short seaplane ride to this beautiful accommodation. Highly recommended

MalaysiaBreakfast n dinner Buffet was top 10. Would be better if the hotel could arrange non-halal food items at a different corner of the buffet.
We had 5 relaxing days on the over water villa. We walked to breakfast and dinner, enjoyed the white sand beaches and did sunset yoga. We also did the manta ray quest and nurse shark tour.

AustraliaThe timbers on the boardwalk to our water villa were obviously aged and in need of repair, which meant that we needed to wear shoes to/from our vila. It appears that you are replacing the worst of the timbers progressively, however would suggest that this may need some accelerated actions. Also, we noted that a number of the water villa were in need of external repainting which does tend to make the units look a bit tired. After speaking with the Manager, we understand that there is work underway to stimulate new coral growth in the lagoon area. This is a positive step as the snorkelling experience around your resort was not as enjoyable as the experience which we had at another nearby (Vilamindhoo) report, with factors such as stronger wave action/less impressive coral being a natural factor which Outrigger needs to overcome.
The Staff were extremely friendly and kind, taking special actions (birthday message on our bed, champagne in the evening) to make it a very special holiday. Really appreciated the staff attempting to use our names when they greeted us, this was a very nice touch. Aliya was brilliant and very helpful.

From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beauty of the Maldives and your stunning resort, it was breathtaking beauty and crystal-clear waters which we were looking for, Also the attention to detail in every aspect of the resort truly impressed us. I want to extend a special thanks to Moosa and the entire team. Your staff members were incredibly hospitable, professional, and attentive throughout our stay. They made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. I must also commend your culinary team. The food at Outrigger Maldives was exceptional, and we thoroughly enjoyed every meal. The variety, quality, and presentation were outstanding, and we savored every bite. Thank you once again for providing us with an unforgettable vacation.

The trip was to celebrate my honeymoon and it couldn't have been more perfect. Maldives alone is already a dream, but choosing this resort for that special date made all the difference! We were welcomed by the employees and manager of the place, all very polite, they called us by name and always had a smile on their faces. We got several honeymoon treats and everything was perfect. I would like to highlight the names and service of Adam, our housekeeper, Moosa our Host and Chandana, waiter at Cuisine. Everyone at the resort is wonderful, but these 3 made all the difference in our stay. Thank you Outrigger for making this trip unforgettable.

GreeceFew things for possible consideration: - better alignment with seaplane company so as not to lose much time waiting in Male - room service is essential when you provide such great villas that you never want to leave from.
It was an amazing relaxing experience in a great location and with so rich sea world. Our water pool villa was in excellent state, like brand new, very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our privacy, relax and great Indian food along with nice red wines of all over the world and awesome cocktails! We had also a great surprise for our 18th anniversary! We really enjoyed it :-)

United KingdomNothing to dislike, just a couple of suggestions. The staff running the excursions were very kind, professional and helpful, perhaps would be helpful to education about the wildlife we would see and how we could help to protect them going forwards. Also would be good to have palm oil friendly products in the minibar.
Exceptional staff and resort was pristine
