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.).

SwedenA chill place with a chill host, that's what we came for. Thank you Owen for four fantastic days! Here you can be almost all by your own, but If you want to experience the area you can always jump on a bus just up on the street. It's about ten minutes ride to Beau Vallon.

LithuaniaVery thin and bright curtains so in the morning is too bright in the room - we wanted kids to sleep and it was difficult due to the sunlight in the room. Rugs at the doors would help to avoid sand in the house. The host was not helpful, even lied about mosquitos (that there are none) and the next day we all found many bites on body
big terrace with a great view, beach nearby, shop is also close.

Lithuania-There was construction noise on the side during the day time. -I would like to come back with the kids - BUT the kitchen needs update/or deep cleaning. -Bit dark inside in the evenings.
- THE BEACH, you are on the beach that is most of the time empty in the morning and evening and with 5-15 other persons during the day. It is clean (no seaweeds), with surrounding greenery, local small beach bar. The spacious terrace and the view was nice as well, free use of kayaks. With the car - 5min to Beau Vallon. Value for money for the size and location itself - I would come back.

SwitzerlandThe dish washer didn’t work and had a very bad smell. We told the owner on the first day but nothing happened. There are no private beaches in Seychelles, so that was misleading. And you cannot see the sunset from the apartment. It it really overpriced. Try Beau Vallon for better prices.
Excellent location and nice large terrace. Our chalet had working wash machine and tumbler.

United KingdomThe fridge smelt a little and the worksurface behind the sink was being eated by insects.
Anse L'ilot is a real hidden gem of a location and the appartments excellent, if perhaps needing a bit of a small refresh in the kitchen. The local beach is 1 minute away and has excellent snorkelling and a superb little beach bar. It's handy for Beau Vallon and Victoria, but otherwise resatuarants are a drive away. Highly Recommended.

Swedenlike many rent to tourists the interior/house is a bit run down. seems to be that maintenance is not a top priority. I always compare price vs standard and this was our most expensive housing on the trip and I expect more, why have a dishwasher if there is so few glasses, cups, plates and forks etc. Great bathroom in our flat
AAA location with 8 people on average on the entire beach, very nice beach and secluded. Nice patio.

NorwayThis is our fifth rented place in Seychelles, different locations. The price is not adequate for the service. Most of the equipment in the apartment is worn out or does not work. When we entered the door, we had the feeling that everything was dirty, we couldn't see through the windows, our feet were sticking to the floor (we understand that this is possible from the proximity of sea water and wind, as well as possible from palm oil), but when we entered the door, at first we wanted to see at least through windows and not feel dirt in the kitchen. We spent six nights in this place. Will we recover, I think not. I believe that it is necessary to invest only a very small part of the income from what the owner earns in order to restore and maintain the service at an adequate price. We wish him success.
Nice view from the terrace, Large terrace, Interesting project for an apartment. Nice beaches in the area with big waves and also with small ones suitable for children. We found in the neighborhood what we expected from Seychelles.

United KingdomTerrible experience – avoid this place! We arrived for check-in and were absolutely shocked by the condition of the chalet. It was extremely dirty – sticky countertops, crumbs everywhere, hair in the sink, urine stains on the toilet, and the whole place smelled of damp and mildew. We told the owner there was no way we could stay there, as the room was in a truly disgusting and unacceptable state. The owner claimed this was the first time something like this had happened, but judging by other reviews, this seems to be a recurring issue. He agreed not to charge us, and we left immediately. However, after we left and I tried to contact him via Booking to cancel the reservation officially, he completely stopped responding.
The only positive about it is the beach

BelgiumThere was no place for on arrival.... why the owner didn't inform us about the issue before our arrival... moreover we couldn't contact him on the arrival day (just like we have not been expected). The official reason was that a water pipe broke unexpectedly a day before (but I've seen all apartments busy with all terrasses with shoes and blankets of other customers). Another problem is with the payment (I've transferred the money few weeks upfront), yet he claimed the money didn't arrive to his account. BTW...we have booked with our credit card so the payment should have been done this way rather that by transfer or cash(on their request). It is all very unusual... in fact I'm a very frequent booking.com user since many years and these things have never happened to me. So think twice before you book this particular place. Looking on the google.com there was at least 1 person who had the same problem (no place on arrival).
There was no place for us on arrival.... Owen(owner) is a nice person and he found alternative place for us but.. why he didn't inform us about the issue before our arrival...

BulgariaGreat location. Perhaps the best beach on the island is right in front of you. Unique place. In terms of cleanliness, more could be desired. Linen is not changed, which is a bit careless. Everything else is great. The house is equipped with everything you need. There are shops nearby for shopping. Fast food is also very close. Nice restaurant nearby.
