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.).

MalaysiaProbably a bit of a distance from the city and ala carte food prices are a bit expansive for the quality/portion they served. But I guess it Shangri-La
Amazing breakfast, plenty of choices for local and foreigners. Beach was clean but a fair walk to the ocean. Room was nice and spacious. Bus Shuttle was good. Staff super helpful

United KingdomHaving to book tables at the restaurants for meals as a hotel guest. The upper age limit ot the classification of a child varied.
Well maintained for its size. Lots of facilities & activities. Great location- even though it was far from town, you could access via the free shuttle services. Good effort to try and keep the beachfront clear of rubbish (unfortunately debris seems unavoidable on most beaches today),

ChinaThe Eighth restaurant sucks. I can't believe any restaurant will let customers wait for more than 20mins per dish. The food waiting time is so long that every table is grumbling publicly🤣
Excellent facilities and comfortable room at the Ocean Wing. Left an unbelievable sunset view in the 5th floor's room. I met many helpful guys here, like Angel at the front and Andy at the Jungle hiking center, thx a lot!

This property is amazing. The San Pan bar was a great place to watch the sunset with happy hour cocktails and beers. Our room was fantastic with a bath on the balcony with a day bed to rest on after a big day exploring the jungle and beach. The food in all the restaurants was fresh and tasty. The seafood banquet was a highlight. The spa had a lot of treatments on offer. I had a massage which was very relaxing. We had a great experience at the resort.

United KingdomIf I was a perfectionist I think the cocktails could be improved. My cocktail felt quite watered down. For a five star hotel the cocktails should be better.
Lovely room, great setting and amazingly friendly staff. For a big resort hotel I was amazed how friendly the staff were and how many could remember your name. Edith on the front desk and Pernia in the buffet restaurant were especially good.

ChinaThe cleaning of the room could have been a bit more detailed oriented but overall not really anything negative to say.
The room in the ocean wing was spacious, with a wide and comfortable bed. The terrace with the bathtub really adds up to the experience. The breakfast was great, the swimming pool very enjoyable for a family with small kids. The staff at the restaurants were attentive and friendly. And the beach was amazing to watch the sunset.

MalaysiaThe breakfast although has many wonderful choices but it lacked flavour or something. Shangri La Rasa MUST have a dish or two which is truly outstanding even at breakfast which will make the hotel stand out with the guests. The wafflesi will were ok. Croissant were slightly below ok. Dim sum, sausages, hash browns were so so. Omelette as well.
Facilities was superb but what made it exceptional were the staff. From Lionel at the front desk all the way to the concierge, coffee terrace and all the concierge were truly warm, friendly and very professional. I felt like each and every staff there not only works there but felt like they own a piece of the business. Any 5 or 6 star resort can have the most beautiful premise but if the staff fails, everything fails. Kudos to all the staff in Rasa Ria who our stay an exceptional one.
