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 reviewI had a wonderful stay at this cozy cottage surrounded by greenery. The place was very clean and peaceful, with a truly relaxing atmosphere. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the staff was absolutely amazing – friendly and helpful at all times. Fresh towels were provided every two days, which was a nice touch. I also appreciated the option to have breakfast on-site and rent bikes to explore the area. The port is nearby, as well as several shops, making the location very convenient. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway! Thank you 😊

Verified reviewThe accommodation is close to the ferry port with a good location for cycling to other parts of the island. It was very clean and comfortable, just like in the pictures. The lady at the reception Alice was very friendly and helpful with all requests regarding the accommodation, even late check-out. Staying here was a real pleasure, definitely recommendable.

Verified reviewThe rooms are clean and spacious. The terrasse is very chill and overall it’s very quiet. The setting is nice in the middle of a lot of green. Rooms are made every day. The breakfast is ok and provides some variety. The staff is very friendly! Overall a very fair option on La Digue.
During a five days stay, I would expect the towels to be changed at least once as they get very humid and stinky. The curtains are too light and you wake up directly with the sun. Overall the rooms could use a bit of renewal and they are fully packed with furniture.
Thank you for your compliment and honesty. We will surely take note and improve on what did not went well.

Verified reviewWelcoming staff, nice room, great location.
Check-in was supposed to be possible from 10:30 (which would have been quite early, to be fair) but when arriving at 12:30 the room wasn't ready. Not a big deal but thats why not 10/10.

Verified reviewThe complex is situated within beautifully set grounds with magnificent scenery garden and road crossing beach.
No communal kitchen available for self catering for chalet without kitchen. Also they say pickup available from jetty but was not. This should not be offered in false pretence.
