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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

We stayed 10 nights, The location on the water front and Leo the gentleman managing the place was the most kind, knowledgeable and efficient manager I've ever seen, a credit to this place. Room 2 was perfect right on the water front with its own balcony. Swimming with turtles everyday. The food was excellent and very large portions. I will definitely be back. Thank you all.

United StatesThe bed was super comfortable and the room has everything one needs. But who wants to be in a room when the outdoor space is beautiful and that’s where we were when we were not sleeping. Leo spoke excellent English and welcomed us with warmth and friendliness. The breakfasts were delicious and had a warm homemade cake to accompany the rest of the spread. The boat dropped us off on the dock of the hotel. Very good restaurants and beaches in walking distance. Sit in the sun or under the umbrella of a large tree and enjoy the beauty of this green island. We were lucky to see the large turtle, Josefina, swimming among fishes the near the hotel dock. The sunsets were spectacular and evenings were charming to sit outside. The staff also made tasty Cachacas.

Incredible location on the waterfront with so much sea life off the dock. Short walk to great beaches. Staff all love the nature around, we stayed 3 days and swam with turtles every day! Leo was a great host, always on hand to improve our experience, whether spotting turtles or bringing out tasty caipirinhas (and more)!

United KingdomNothing I didn't like. Our double room was quite small so not much room for large cases but it didn't really bother us and you are literally steps to the sea.
We loved Mar da lua and it was one of the highlights of our holiday in Brazil- it is a little bit of paradise. Staff were great and specially brought in vegan food to cater for my daughter. We did the boat trip which I would highly recommend. There are also paddleboards available which we enjoyed. Stayed for 3 nights but would have liked to stay longer. There is a boat from Angra dos Reis that drops you right at the Mar da Lua pier too.

United KingdomThe rooms aren't luxurious but everything works well.
Excellent place to stay with very helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful beaches within walking distance and the boats trips available take you to the major beaches on the island like Lopes Mendes. A great place to relax and a bonus is the turtle that swims regularly by the decking! Straight forward to get to with the ferry from Angra dos Reis.
