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 reviewTo be honest I was happy to leave, the experience was poor.
Everything was piss poor, let me set the scene we arrived on a scheduled private boat to no welcoming ceremony, I was wondering around aimlessly trying to find a meme we of staff for 30minutes, when I did they pretended that everything was okay, our luggage was still sat at the end of the dock, after dealing with this situation, we then proceeded to the room where we was rudely interrupted by an member of the engineering team, entering our room while we was indecent. All the staff who I assume are highly trained lacked leadership all having there own way of dealing with customers it felt like a shambles their was no seamless experience or any communication between the staff and team members. The room had a constant clunking noise all night long I hardly slept, especially whilst still on edge knowing staff members enter your room without any notification overall I wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Verified reviewWe had a unique experience on this special island. I was impressed by the fantastic design and the attention to the smallest details of the designer, a special place where a lot of energy was invested. The water and sand are like in the Maldives, it was the first time we saw a turtle. Everything remained tattooed on our souls forever.

Verified reviewJust finished my 3 night sleep in Shebara Resort. This ways one of the most unique experience we could ever get! Everything was really exceptional and beyond our expectations. The staff was really accommodating and welcoming. Interesting fact: the property assigns your personal butler (host) to keep your needs served and enhance your experience. My personal gratitude to Mshwary and Sam for taking care of me the 3 days, literally they were helping me at everything! The rooms are really wide and fresh. Really good furniture and design of the rooms. All the facilities were operational and new. Everyone knew what is their role in this ecosystem even though they have recently launched! Overall, of the best things that could have happen to me at the beginning of 2025 was my stay at Shebara resort. Planning my second trip in April
