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.).

United KingdomAll was great.
We came to Santander to get the ferry to Dumagerte so we booked at Southseas to be near the small ferry port. We then extended our stay as it was very nice. Very pretty spot on the waterfront with a swimming pool and sea access was via a stony beach. The location was on a small coastal road a few miles from the town centre so was very peaceful. Gardens were very nice with a pleasant bar and breakfast area next to the pool and seafront. Staff were great, very helpful and food was very nice. Chef was flexible with orders. Breakfast was provided but you can order other items on the menu too. You can order lunch and dinner here too. Although we were in a hire car, I hired their bike to cruise nearby which was fun. The town had various shops and restaurants plus a well set up 7/11. My hire car was picked up here by owners from Cebu City, so the hotel dropped us to the ferry port where we got the smaller passenger ferry not the larger car ferry. There was a small car cleaning machine at a property just on the edge of town. The rooms were very tidy and nicely furnished. Beds very comfortable and clean. Although not a budget place, it was good value for what they offered and was great for my kids.

AustraliaFood outside of the breakfast was ok, could have been a bit better in terms of quality of ingredients. Location isn't the most easy if you want to get around other restaurants, you will need a bike to move around.
Super friendly staff. Facilities were great specially if you are looking for snorkeling and diving. You can go straight from the hotel and they also have a boat to take you to a nearby island that is incredible! Breakfast is limited but tasty. We stayed in the second floor and view was incredible.

United KingdomI personally couldn’t access the sea from the property but others managed and there’s a nice pool.
Everything was perfect! Sonny and the team could not have done more to welcome us and were really helpful organising trips for us and taking us places personally. The rooms are modern and very clean and the grounds well looked after. The honesty bar made things easy and the unlimited supply of clean drinking water was the icing on the cake!

New ZealandThe access into the resort is difficult to spot in the evening / late afternoon, as they often have the gate closed. You will likely need to have someone exit the car and open the gate to get in.
Breakfast was good, with nice coffee. The pool area was good, and the rooms were well appointed. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and can organise diving and PADI certification for a very reasonable price, if that is something you are in the market for. The most comfortable hotel bed I have slept in, while staying in hotels here. We didn't use the restaurant, but went for dinner dinner both nights at the "Belgian Bistro" which was about 5 minutes drive away. The Owner / Chef, is and absolute master, and the food was amazing.
