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 reviewWe took almost all available excursions on this Island, because we didn't like the beaches so much. This Island is first of all, Island for divers, which our family is not. Though, excursions we took, were the best choice. Guide Suxein took a very good care of us and we enjoyed it till the last day. Suxein was incredibly helpful, tooking underwater videos and pictures of us! Thank you Suxein for all! We took a dolphin trip, manta trip, sandbank (a must do) trip with snorkelig and I treated myself with a very expensive adventure, jigging. It all paid off. We've seen a whole lot of fishes, dolphins, turtles, sharks and I even caught a yellowtail on our last evening jigging trip. The staff at the hotel made some great platters with this fish, so we enjoyed it in full. The manager, Ali was incredibly helpful with our room accomodatio, he even weave a braclet for my daughter by himself. Ali, this was the best gift for my daughter. Thank you. And not to mention the cook, who took good care of us with amazing food selection. There is an amazing joint with Lavaza coffe and delicious ice cream. The food was great in Lemon Drop restaurant.
Among all three Islands we visited (Mathiveri and Ukulhas) this one was the most turistic and loud, if I may say. Though all the activities we made erased bad memories.

Air conditioning worked perfectly. The food was very good, we recommend fresh juices! A quiet place, worth recommending for rest.

Verified reviewBig airy room, with outdoor shower, comfortable bed nicy balcony. Manager Ali very friendly. Room was clean.
That the property isn't beachfront as was written in the description. It's close to the beach, about 150 m from the beach. There isn't sea view from any balcony or any point from the hotel. From the balcony I had a view of a local soccer playground and volleyball ball ground. Breakfast could be better. Eggs (fried) were cold. Not really tropical fruits, only water melon, apple, orange, bananas

Verified reviewVery helpful and friendly staff, very short walk to the bikini beach, small but nice buffet breakfast, organised excursions, take luggage from and back to boat as well as accompany guests to and from their departing boats - really look after customers
Gave my room to.other people despite booking well in advance - but they organised an alternative accommodation nearby right on the bikini beach and threw in a free excursion and snorkel gear. A fair few mosquitoes - but think that is across Rashdoo Island.

Verified reviewThe location. The staff are amazing and super helpful. The Manager Ali went out of his way above and beyond to make sure our trip was wonderful after a horrible hiccup by Singapore Airlines that literally screwed up the 50th bday party for my good friend. He was amazing . Everything about the resort was amazing. There are nearby Chinese and western restaurants if you wish to have a change in food. Also kudos to the resort’s snorkelling guide and boat driver who was 10/10.
Nothing really

Verified reviewSpacious clean room. Kind helpful staff. Professional management. Comfortable bed, acceptable wi-fi service.
The hot water pressure in the bathroom could be stronger. Since I don't like to use the air conditioning at night, it would be nice to have a mosquito net on at least one window.

Verified reviewWell located, silent and view into the green from upper rooms. Staff friendly and accommodating
Too expensive for the quality and service. Rooms big but worn down smelly bathroom, cleaning is just making your bed, no actually bathroom cleaning or towels changing. Breakfast is prepared early and only once, so unless you come early most freshly cooked meals are sitting already since 7am and it seems impossible to even have a working salt shaker. I recommend looking down the road for an alternative

Verified reviewProximity to beach, courtyard area was very pleasant, staff were mostly helpful. After fishing tour, staff cooked catch and served with salad and chips & rice. Day tour to Elliadhoo Island and fishing charters were fun- organised through hotel Snorkelling is amazing
Room was not as pictured on booking.com. Original room had no safe no kettle was very small- we had opted for deluxe and did not feel we had been given deluxe at all. We were moved to the room pictured after 2 nights, a kettle magically appeared- only tea bags no coffee. This room had 2 safes. Breakfast was not hot, cooked eggs were just stored in bain marie with no heat. We also had wanted to pay months before our stay but could not- the australian dollar against USD was not good.

Verified reviewWe spent 10 days at Quicksand and they were wonderful. It is next to the bikini beach. The room was very spacious with exit to the garden, cleaned every day. Whatever we needed, it was always at our disposal. The breakfast place, hammocks and reception are super nice. The staff was always helpful and friendly. Ali, the manager Sameer and his wife Marina, made our stay a 10. We also went with them to Todhoo and it was a delight, as well as another excursion with Suzain which was spectacular. We were delighted on our last day with a Maldivian dinner accompanied by a live Maldivian music and dance group, which was the cherry on the cake of the trip. Highly recommended.
