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.).

They provide different kinds of breakfasts, awesome lunches and dinners, and we enjoyed everything we tried there. The location is one minute away from the amazing and very long beach with coral reef and sea turtles. For sure we want to come back again!

Verified reviewLocation is a short walk to the sunset beach and to the supermarket. The staff responded quickly to my requests for information before and during the stay (e.g. booking the boat to and from Ukulhas etc). In-house restaurant, I had a seafood pizza for dinner which was decent.
Ukulhas is a local island, not a resort island, but at checkin they refused to accept Maldivian rufiyah for room payment. Room was rather cramped - I was alone, it could be an issue for a couple. The commode flush was not working. Though breakfast was included in my plan, the Indian manager (I'm also Indian btw) told me it would not be available since I was taking an early boat to Male. However, the next day, there was a European family checking out and on the same boat and he provided them with packed breakfasts, telling another (Maldivian) staff member that they had paid for breakfast!

Verified reviewfriendliness of staff
The rooms are full of bedbugs. I was bitten several times during my stay even when they changed to another room. The manager ignored what had happened and decided to give me no compensation. When I got home I had to spend a lot of money on insecticides and some of my clothes were ruined due to the temperature I had to wash them.

Verified reviewLocation is perfect
We stayed in the rooms on ground floor. The patio (garden?) shared by the 3 rooms on ground floor is very small. It is far too small to sit comfortable and it is used to dry laundry. The AC we had made more noise than a small airplane so we could not use it at night

Verified reviewI liked that I only stayed one night and not more. there are much better options on the island for similar amounts of money
the initial room was terrible, had mold on the walls, couldn't breathe deeply, had to change it immediately. the second room...less moldy, but still not feeling good, felt stuffy. access to this new room was very complicated, uncomfortable stairs. I didn't even take the breakfast even though it was included in the price because I didn't trust it. I don't understand how this hotel has such a high rating and good reviews.

Verified reviewIf you're looking for an unforgettable experience in the Maldives, Olhumathi View Inn is undoubtedly the best place to stay. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with warm and genuine hospitality by a dedicated and attentive staff, always ready to ensure your stay is perfect. The owner is truly exceptional, with impeccable care for the Olhumathi View Inn and an inspiring passion for plants, which transform the space into a true tropical oasis. His dedication to the guests' well-being and nature conservation is evident in every detail. The food is another highlight: delicious, fresh dishes that capture the authentic flavors of the Maldives, always prepared with love and attention to local ingredients. Every meal is a memorable culinary experience. What truly sets Olhumathi View Inn apart, however, are the specialized guides for diving with the majestic manta rays. They know the best spots and the perfect timing to offer a magical encounter with these incredible marine creatures. It’s an experience that exceeds all expectations, thanks to the professionalism and expertise of the team. If you want to experience the true essence of the Maldives with comfort, charm, and unforgettable adventures, Olhumathi View Inn is the perfect place. Highly recommended!
