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 reviewNice location and nice accommodation. Large hall, clean bathroom and comfortable beds. Nice view on the ocean. There is a grill zone on the ground floor which we used with pleasure. We bought a fresh fish at the nearest fish market and grilled it there. There is a small beach in the proximity which is used by locals only. A dog called Coco which belongs to the owner showed my wife the route to that beach. ) Beau Vallon is 15 minutes away by car.
The kitchen requires refurbishment or very deep cleaning. There were few small cockroaches spotted, but obviously they were "brandnew". The hostess reacted quickly and brought insect killers on the next morning.

Verified reviewThe apartment was very charming and had a great view of the ocean and the sunrise. Pina was a wonderful hostess, and everything was very well looked after. The apartment is located in a very nice neighborhood, although it is probably best suited to people who don't mind walking a bit and/or have a rental car. There is access to a "secret" beach/swimming hole just a few meters from the apartment.

Verified reviewI had an absolutely unforgettable stay in this apartment in the Seychelles Epea Ocean View Top! From the moment I arrived, Pina, the host, was more than wonderful. Intuitive and truly welcoming, she always knew how to make me feel comfortable and made sure I was happy throughout my stay. She was always available and more than willing to show me around and give me incredible insights into the area that made my experience even more special. The apartment itself was spacious, clean and beautifully maintained. The view of the ocean from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking – I could have spent hours taking it in. The nearby beaches are stunning, perfect for relaxing, sunbathing and swimming in crystal clear waters. A particular highlight is the small, private beach across the resort, the ideal place for those seeking peace and seclusion. For those looking for a livelier atmosphere Carana Beach, which is like a dream, is only a short distance away and offers an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Seychelles – it’s the perfect blend of luxury, comfort and incredible hospitality. I will definitely be back!
Thank you so much Neve . I really enjoyed hosting you and you were an amazing guest . I am so glad and happy that you enjoyed with us . Will definitely see you again . All the best 😊

Verified reviewThe accommodation is highly recommended! We were given a very warm welcome and our host was very nice and flexible concerning our arrival. We were able to leave our luggage at the accommodation in the morning and walked to a small beach nearby - with beach towels from the accommodation. The view is spectacular! Nothing was missing in the accommodation. The kitchen is well equipped and the air conditioning in the bedrooms works perfectly. A 20-minute walk takes you to Carana Beach, which is a dream!
The mattresses of the bed are a bit worn out and could be more comfortable. But it is definitely comfortable enough for a few days!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review . Was a pleasure to host you all . You were all so friendly and wonderful guests 🙏🏽 Will work on the mattress😊
