Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IndiaOne night there was a complete electricity shutdown on the island .. there is no power back up in this property and it was very hot that night and we weren’t able to get good sleep.
Location of the property was good… it was very close to Anse lazio beach and various super markets. Since this was a self catering 1 bhk bungalow had a beautiful garden and all amenities like fridge, cookware, cutlery, washing machine etc. the staff was good and helpful.

SwitzerlandThe only thing I couldn’t do with: seeing the poor tortoise being held on that very trist and super small patch (5 square meters at max!) made me cry. Come on, you have so much space - if you have to keep such a beauty in captivity, at least build him or her nice home! Let us know once that’s done - and we will be back with our junior.
What a great home away from home! We’ve loved our stay at HideAway. We’ve stayed in the wooden chalet (Lakaz) which was simply great: spacious, comfy, clean. The highlight was probably the large wooden terrace where we’ve spent most of the time ‚at home‘. The location is perfect if you’re looking for a „hideaway“ - there are a few other holiday homes, a nice beach where some locals mingle, and the beautiful garden/compound - that’s it. We’ve liked being remote and off the buzz - and we‘ve gone to all places on the island by bus which was easy to do. The bus stop is literally at your doorstep. Just keep in mind that the buses don’t run that frequently and that the schedule is rather an indication of frequency per day than anything else. But hey, you’re on holiday :). Oh, and yes there is a little grocery store next door - but the owners were away for three months, so grocery shopping at core d‘ore by bus. The landlady was very kind. And we were even treated with some fruits. And could stay on the Terrasse after checkout. Thank you!

ItalyThe furniture were a little bit updated, but while we were there they were changing the couch in one apartment and painting another one. If you want to reach Anse Volbert and Côte d’Or you need a car or you have to use the bus.
The apartment is in a quite neighbourhood, even with the main street just outside the gate there were no noises. Erny, the owner of the Hideaway apartments is friendly and attentive. Housekeeping was done every day. The kitchen and the bathroom were clean and functional. The bed in our room was huge! The patio with table and chairs was perfect, in the only rainy day of our vacation we were able to stay outside without problem.

PolandDidn't like the tinted windows, which don't let a lot of daylight into the apartment, but I guess that's a personal thing ;)
Loved the location, not many tourists around, the beach in front of the apartment was usually completely empty :) And, of course, the bed was super comfortable, as everyone else says, absolutely loved it.

IndiaNothing to say as not good. Except we faced a unique problem. The sensor lights of next property was facing our bedroom and it was blinking entire night instead of working as sensor alarm, was disturbing our sleep. Constant flashing of light.
No breakfast. Its self catering apartment. Amazing location. The apartment is located Just opposite beach. Enjoying the morning coffee, listening to the chirping of black parrots & other birds, along with gentle waves of the ocean, was our daily routine😊

United KingdomWe loved the little apartment, the location was fantastic for getting around the island but also right on the beach front. The apartment was clean and spacious, it had everything we needed to settle in and “live”. The bed was huge and comfortable with great AC to cool the room, the kitchen had what we needed for cooking, everything worked absolutely fine including the washing machine and there was space in the lounge or outside the front for relaxing or sunbathing. There are big spacious grounds for parking and it is clearly signposted on the road. The staff were also very friendly, they clearly explained the water ban from the government to us and checked in on us throughout our stay, even bringing fresh fruit from the garden.

United KingdomChoice of tv channels was limited to one movie channel which was not very good and it depends on the owner's choice as to what else you get
Location was Ok but the beach was not suitable for swimming as there was a lot of silt. You need a car to take full advantage as there no shops nearby but otherwise a beautiful property. The bed was the most comfortable I have slept for a very long time with a hotel deluxe mattress.

ItalyEverything was perfect , we just suggest that the owner keeps some salt, pepper or sugar in the kitchen , for the daily use of the customers and maybe , giving that there is the washing machine , a small amount of soap for the clothes . Independent from the property , just a piece of advice : we had the ferry at 8 in the morning , the bus passed just two times ,once at 5.55 and the next at 7 .
We arrive by bus from the Cat Coco , the bus stop was in front of the property . We enter in the garden and we met the owner , a very nice and kind lady . She showed us all the features of the house . The house was immaculate , clean and big. I don't understand why people in some reviews complained about the house: is huge, a big stove with 4 gas spots , 2 fans one for the living-kitchen room and one for the room , a massive giant bed , the AC , a laundry machine in the bathroom , a huge shower . Sometimes you can see a geko or ants , but it's understandable,your are on a island in the middle of Indian Ocean next to the jungle , what do you expect ? The host was so nice and helpful . We were delighted of this stay and we spent a very good time . The property is in the middle between Cote d'or e anse lazio . We suggest that u vistit anse lazio for the snorkeling ( we went there on foot , it takes about 1 hour , no sidewalk , but you also pass through a resort where they have the big turtles in an enclosure ) , and cote d'or for the beautiful and huge white sand beach ( nice palm trees , good for insta pics ) . I highly recommend this property for your stay

GermanyI gave a 9 and not a 10, becasue you really need a car here, beach inf ront o the hotel is not nice and even if you can walk until Cote D´or (~30 min) I think it is too far away for every day. Also even if it is a self catering, it would be great to have some general use food, like sugar, salt or napkins, which normally you can not buy in small quantity and they are not expensive.
Great Self Catering apartment in Praslin, really close (few minutes by car) from Anse Lazio (one of the best beach) and Cote D´or small village with all services you can need as well as a super nice beach. The apartment is quite well equipped, it has waschmachine and the biggest bed we have ever sleep, it was huuuuuuge. It also has a porsche, which we enjoy for dinner, ordering food fromt he take away. The owners are also really kind, responsible via whats app fromt he beggining and willing to share tips with you. They offer us some Mando and coco from the garden (delicious)
