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 reviewThe hosts are really lovely people. The apartment was very clean and very comfortable. We really appreciated the welcome treats that they left for us in the fridge
Unfortunately Grand Anse in June is exposed to wind and seaweed, so the beach is practically non-existent and is covered in black seaweed that has a very bad smell. With a small child therefore you have to move to go to the beach, and taxis and rentals on the island are really expensive.
Dear Marialaura, Thank you very much for your kind words and for sharing your experience with us. We're so pleased to hear that you found the apartment clean and comfortable, and that you appreciated the welcome treats — it’s always our pleasure to add a thoughtful touch to your stay. We understand your concerns regarding the beach conditions at Grand Anse during this time of year. The seasonal seaweed is a natural occurrence that can affect the shoreline, and we sincerely regret any inconvenience it may have caused, especially when traveling with a young child. Your feedback is valuable, and we always do our best to assist guests with alternative beach options and transportation advice. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back again in a different season when the beach is at its best. Warm regards, The Ocean Villa Team

Verified reviewThe staff is superd. Ailyn and her Team provide everthing you need and are helpful. The made us a warm welcome and we regretted not staying longer. We had the Appartement facing the main road, but the noise was ok. The living room is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. There was nothing we missed. The beds are comfortable and the AC and fans are new. The Appartement as well as the whole estate was really really clean and tidy. The Pool area is perfect for a quick refreshment and the walk to the beach is super short. The beach is beautiful with lots of places in the shade and not many people there. Everthing you need is just a short work or a even shorter drive away. We really enjoyed staying at Ocean Villa! It is perfect for staying with a child.
Nothing really. Be aware though, that there might be seaweed on the beach.

Verified reviewWe recently had an unforgettable stay in Villa Adam. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by an incredible team on-site who were not just amazing, but truly lovely people. Their attentiveness and care for their guests were evident throughout our stay, ensuring that every corner of the house was spotlessly clean and the entire area meticulously maintained. The team went above and beyond to help us organize a birthday celebration, which added a personal touch that made our stay extra special. One of the highlights was undoubtedly the barbecue - it was one of the most delicious meals we’ve had during our vacation, making the experience even more memorable. They also helped to organize a rental car and were available and always supportive with all the questions we had. The location was perfect for our family with small children. We felt reassured with the kids' safety as the villa had secure surroundings and they even provided a high chair. The direct beach access and the pool were a big hit, too. Everyone in our group absolutely loved the location, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing and enjoyable family vacation. We can’t wait to return!
