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 reviewVery friendly and hospitable host, easily reachable, and very helpful with recommendations and suggestions on what to visit while on the island. The view from the apartment is breathtaking, and this is a perfect spot for early-birds or people that love sunrises! It was magnificent!!!

Verified reviewIndra was a fabulous host, very responsive and thoughtful. Our morning arrival/evening departure flight fell outside the normal check-in/check-out times but Indra was very accommodating allowing us to arrive early and depart late. She gave some very useful tips on things to do and places to visit. The self-catering apartment was very clean and had everything we needed, there were plenty of shops a short car ride away. The shower water pressure was great, bed very comfortable, great place to relax. View was fabulous, would definitely stay there again.
Nothing! Everything was great.
Thank you so much Aidan, for your lovely comments. We really enjoyed having you as our guests

Verified reviewFantastic appartement that was very very well equipped for self catering. Extremely comfy and great place to come back to at the end of the day. Location is great as the bus stop is 5min walk to the house and you have a lovely view. Also some restaurants, a take away and shops are all 5-10min walk from the house. Peter was a lovely host and very kind on our arrival. Would highly recommend
Thank you so much, Niamh, for your lovely review. We really appreciate your great comments and are so happy you stayed with us.

Verified reviewPeter was an excellent host! He was flexible with the check in and check out times. He waited for us to arrive to give us the keys and explain the apartment. It's one of four apartments in a small building with views of the ocean. There's a security gate to get/out and a small parking area. It's not far from the main road, but it's up a hill so you will definitely benefit from having a car. There are restaurants and a bus stop stop within walking distance but more convenient to drive. There's a small shop very close to get snacks/water. The apartment is spacious and clean. There's a lady who will make up the beds every day and change the sheets and towels every 2-3 days. The terrace overlooks the ocean. There's a big living room with a TV. WiFi worked well. Kitchen has just about everything you need. It's not far from the Takamaka distillery, Anse Royale beach and a number of supermarkets. Excellent value for the price.
Thank you so much, Amanda, for your very warm and generous review. It was great having you stay with us.

Verified reviewPeter is a very friendly host who was always there for answering our questions or helping us with something. Despite being a self-catering apartment, it got cleaned every day (except sunday). The view from the balcony is fantastic and the next bus stop can be reached easily by foot (although the way down from the apartment is quite steep;).
Not really negative, but just as a hint from my experience: check twice if you already payed at booking time, otherwise you might have to pay in the apartment. No big thing, but you need to consider to be able to pay right there with credit card.
