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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

AustriaOur host was very kind and nice, she picked us up from the Port in Ios, where we arrived with the ferry. We could already check-in at 10 am, the beautiful beach is just 20 minutes walking distance. We stayed for 1 night during low-season and had the whole beach by ourselves. The area was quiet. To the town it’s also only a short walking distance.

United KingdomThis is by far the best place we have stayed at on our travels. The hosts are amazing and can help with any recommendations for local places to visit. Getting picked up and dropped off at the port was a bonus too. The place has an amazing new pool and bar with a great view. Great value for money and we will definitely recommend this place to others.

AustraliaWe didn't have drinking cups and kitchen utensils to use the stove.
We loved everything about Blue Sky! The staff were incredibly nice and friendly! We were picked up from the port which was a major help as it's about a 10 - 15 minute drive from the port. We were checked in early and our room was right next to the pool with such a great view! The pool was amazing! It was a big infinity pool with very cold temperature and lounge beds to soak up the sun. There is a bar next to the pool which played relaxing and chill beats throughout the day. Our bed was very comfortable and the airconditioning worked great. Our room was cleaned daily which was a bonus. There was a kitchenette with a stove to boil water and a fridge to keep drinks cool. Great location to the main part of town. Very informative, local and helpful host who was able to organise transport for us too.

Maroussa and Vangellis were very friendly, very helpful, made us feel very welcome. Maroussa collected us from the port and delivered us back there on our last day. She also arranged car hire and taxis for us. Vangellis always provided a lovely breakfast and drinks. Nothing was too much trouble for both Marcus's and Vangellis. Everything felt clean and fresh. The pool area was amazing lovely place to relax. The view was breathtaking. Thank you Maroussa and Vangellis for making our stay so memorable. We will be back next year! Say hello to Blue for us!

CanadaNot much to complain about.
Incredible ocean view, especially from the infinity pool which was amazing. Lit up at night which was the cherry on top. Little pool bar with drinks and some food if you just want to chill out for a while. Room was clean and offered daily tidying as needed. AC worked well and shower had nice hot water. Hosts were super friendly and easily available for any questions or suggestions. Offered free pickup and drop off from the port. Amazing dog on property who loves belly rubs! Public bus stop just steps away, or 10-15 minute walk into Chora town with majority of restaurants. Very easy to get around the island by bus. Overall amazing value and would love to stay here again.

AustraliaWindows are in the room but there was no fly screens. No way you can have these open at night/evening with the mosquito’s.
It had a beautiful pool which had just been opened, and a soon to open bar along side it which we were so sad we missed out on. The staff were lovely, rooms were cleaned every day. We also got a lift to and from our accomodation to the port which was very handy. Location was perfect for us, we could walk into town and enjoy the nightlife and we could also walk to far our beach club. Would definitely come back here!

AustraliaI have nothing bad to say about this place at all.
Maroussa and her entire family were brilliant!! They picked us up from the port and took us to their hotel and dropped us off back off again. The views are some of the best in Ios. The balconies of rooms offer beautiful views. The facilities were great. We stayed in the new rooms which were very comfortable with all the amenities you need. The infinity pool was a welcoming and very beautiful and pleasant surprise. We travelled all the way from perth with my family and we could not have felt more welcomed or looked after. If you are in this part of the world a visit to this place will not disappoint you.

AustraliaEverything about this property was absolutely perfect. The accommodation is newly renovated and beautifully presented. The view and facilities (new pool) was breathtaking - photos don’t do it justice. The host and family offer transfer from the port which was so helpful, they even guided us around the main town during the drive. The location is perfect with town being a level maybe 6 min walk and the main beach downhill around the same distance. The service, views and facilities make this stay feel 5 star. I will be returning for sure one day and could not recommend this property enough!
