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.).

We stayed in a triple room with shared bathroom. It was great ! The room was simple but nice. The bathrooms were clean. The location right by the beach is a plus. They have their own small private beach. The bungalows looked nice as well. I would have booked those one, but they were already full. The triple room comes with shared kitchen that has all the basic necessities to cook something. The pension is 15 min by walk from the airport and max 3 min by walk from the supermarket.

United KingdomThis isn't a reflection on the property, I don't speak any French so communication was very difficult. It's entirely my fault but just a heads up to expect a little struggle if you don't speak any French. Get on Duolingo before you arrive.
I arrived early and the housekeeper ladies let me in early. There were lots of lovely dogs and a great spot to swim in the sea just in front of the owner's house. The room was very clean and the bed surprisingly comfy. It was very bare but for the price it's understandable, not luxury but just what you need if you're here to dive.

CroatiaThe only problem was bad wifi which is available only on the terrace outside of the room. It doesn't usually bother me but this time I had no gb of my own
Everything was great! Location just beside the sea is exceptional! The owner was really nice even though he doesn't speak english but we managed to understand each other and he even let me use his bicycle and drove me to the airport (airport is really close, maybe 10min by foot but nevertheless it was very kind).

New ZealandOur room had just been repainted, so the smell was overpowering for my friend, but the host Olga was very nice, she let my friend sleep in another room by herself instead 🙏
I loved the beach front location 🥰 not far from the airport, quick walking distance to a supermarket and a restaurant.

United StatesThe WiFi hardly worked. The gas in the kitchen had to be turned on at the bottle each time you used it and there was no information about lighting the gas, the water was no portable and there was no information on where to get drinking water- I had to ask the other guests. The kitchen was really poorly equipped except for the refrigerator which was new and really cold.
The location was great , really enjoyed the little lagoon in front. I loved my own verandah overlooking the grounds and ocean . The bed was comfortable and I had my own bathroom. The other guests where all very helpful and we enjoyed some drinks in the evening after diving. There is a pretty good market about 500 metres down the road and it’s about a 25-30’ walk to the airport.

New ZealandThe Wi-Fi wasn’t accessible across the whole property, you had to stand near the owner’s garage if you wanted to use it. The kitchen had mostly everything I needed but it didn’t have any proper chopping boards and the kitchen knives were blunt.
Beautiful property with it’s own private beach. A lovely lounge area overlooking the water where you could relax.

United StatesBring your own toiletries (or buy in the store nearby). Lack of A/C was not a big deal in June, but we still ran the fans all night. Large local cockroaches made an appearance in the bathroom a couple of times. Beach access is somewhat limited - large coral in the water. But the boat launch dock has a wave barrier and can be used to enter the water safely. Wi-Fi is only available in the pier shack and is pretty slow (which is totally expected from such a remote place). The phone service, however, was great everywhere.
Location was perfect with a grocery store and a restaurant literally across the road. A 10 minute walk or a quick bike ride takes you to more shops and restaurants in the nearby "resorts". Condos are spacious, bikes can be rented on the property. Superb value for the money paid. They only take cash (as well as the nearby restaurant), but the nearby airport has an ATM. The grocery store takes cards.
