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 reviewThe owner is very kind and treated us like friends. He picked us up with a golf cart and received us with warmed welcome. We booked a sunset fishing with him and he found a captain who's experienced and good with it to give us a private trip. He even buy us coffee to have a chat before the tour. After the fishing tour we cooked fish in the kitchen and was delicious. Been a good time with the owner, the staff and the captain. He even offered us to a late checkout because we needed to stay until 2pm to change to the next hotel, because this one is fully booked on the night.

Verified reviewThe location was ok and the owner was very friendly ,he helped us book the speed boat back to Male
There was very strong mould smell in one of the rooms and in general nasty smell in all the rooms. The whole place needs restoration and minimum maintenance at least. The beddings were flower pattern and old, they looked more like a mattress protector rather than a fitting sheet, there was no sheets to cover with, only some thick blanket that doesn’t look like it’s being washed after each guest … we asked for white beddings at least some to cover with but we only got one for all 5 of us… There is a comunal kitchen but again don’t expect to be clean (we did not use it) . No one came to ask if we need cleaning or towel changing during our stay. Toilet paper we had to buy ourselves.

Verified reviewI like the Host, he was very supportive and caring. He wait for us at the Harbor even though we did not ask him to do so. Also during check out he arranged a speed boat and sent his assistant with us in the boat to help us as the sea was little rough that time. understand he is a person with wide knowledge about Maldives and he speak very good English There is very nice beach close to the Hotel I don't remember the name. Another beach, Bikni beach also within walkable distance and was very good.
There was some bad smell for the water. But when we complained he fixed it immediatly

Verified reviewThe second time we stayed in this accommodation and we recommend it. Big rooms, clean and tide. Very well located. And super good price. Staff makes us feel very welcomed. Guraidhoo Island is quite tidy compared to other islands we stayed, and the bikini beach is the most beautiful! Surf is just a paddle across the little channel, and it's super fun. 👌

Verified reviewThe whole guesthouse was really chill and cozy. The Room was really nice and the owner is a very nice and helpful man! Really good vibe overall 👌🏼 Also the guesthouse had a kitchen where we could cook ourselves, and if you don't want to cook, there is amazing restaurant in max 1 min walk distance. They had the best food there that we have eaten on the whole trip to Maldives. The best place to stay!
Only minus is that we could not stay longer.

Verified reviewAhmed looked after us, the room was large with an ensuite shower and toilet. We had two good quality towels each and shower gels etc. The air-conditioning worked and there were lines for drying clothes outside. Tea and coffee were available to make all day.
The room only had a small window over the door. A few more clothes hangers would have been useful.

Verified reviewI liked everything. I do not regret choosing this island. And I am very glad that I chose this guest house. Ahmed, very friendly, explained everything, helped, told about the island, I traveled alone, at first I was afraid, but thanks to Ahmed, and the residents of the guest house, the rest was wonderful. Ahmed sang a Maldivian song to us on the guitar. It was cozy. Everything is nearby, convenient. The breakfast is delicious. Everything is clean, the photo matches. The beach is awesome. Thank you very much for everything.

Verified reviewThe ocean way guraidhoo, the staff is so attentive and their customer service is excellent. I have stay for a few days in this 2023 at this hotel, i was immediately struck by the beautiful friends, I want to give a special thank you to Mr AHMED for been wonderful and helpful, They run around making sure everything is perfect for the guests. Hardest workers I’ve seen in a long time. There are a variety of traditional and foreign foods available just at the back side of the hotel. Pull noodles are available, freshly served fish nets, made before serving. And it has over 20 different types of foreign foods, even sushi is available. Everything is served with an interesting taste. Some types of dishes that are tried have a delicious taste, The location of the hotel is great The room was spacious and well cleaned with all essentials and its close to the beach. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to the tourists who want to go to Maldives.
