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.).

LatviaThere is no sound insulation for sewer pipes. When someone lowers the water from the higher suites, you can hear it in the bedroom at night. Maybet that was just one specific appartment issue.
Excellent and responsive staff, good location, good view from the window to the city and pool, good bar, warm and sunny apartment even in October.

United KingdomThere was a bad smell, we think from the drains. It was there all week. I have stayed in other properties in Majorca and the smell has been there also.
We had an amazing view over the bay of Santa Ponca. We were there for a week and the towels were changed every other day. Every thing was really clean. We did not interact with staff only to check in and to check out, but they were very friendly. We did not use the pool, but it looked very nice.

CanadaRoom smelt like cigarettes even though it is a non smoking room. Smell did end up clearing after a day or two. Bathroom and bedroom area had ant infestation. Parking was very difficult to find.
We loved the location and the proximity to the beach. Room was very spacious and the view was beautiful. Kitchenette had everything we needed to have small meals in our room. Overall we loved our stay and would come back in the future.

United KingdomKitchen was very basic with equipment. Shower in smaller bathroom leaked so we didn't use it. Note: there are a lot of steps to get up to the hotel, we knew this from previous reviews. We liked the exercise.
Apartment was large. Nice big balcony with lovely views. Excellent location - very close to lots of restaurants. Beds were comfy. Air conditioning was good.

IrelandShower was leaking water, hose was not connected properly. Reported the hose and water leaking. They fixed hose very promptly and sorted the hose. The water was constantly leaking onto the bathroom tiled floor, from the glass door. Constant worrying with kids if they may fall as tiles are slippery when wet. This was not fixed and having to keep using towels for the floor after showers.
Love the pool, large 2 bedroom apartment, lots of space.

United KingdomThe only downsides to the property was there was abd foul smell of sewage every morning in the bathroom, that came up through drains. But it was gone within an hour or so. No air con in the bedroom, so we ended up using the living room sofa bed. As the bedroom was too hot. The property is situated up a hill, so we needed up using the car more often to avoid the stairs and hill climbs in 30 degrees
The staff were brilliant here, especially the young gentleman working the bar/restaurant, nothing was too much trouble abd he always looked after us. The pool was great for kids, and there was always an available bed. The food and drink were also good and well priced. The room was also a good size, comfortable and had a large terrace area.

United KingdomVery strict lifeguards but we are told this is an island wide norm. The rooms were quite tired looking but clean. The apartments are high on a hill, hence the nice views but the steps up and down from the beach, restaurants and shops became a bit much effort by the end of the week. Taxis are cheap as an alternative but sparse at times.
The views were great. The reception staff were helpful. The bar/snack bar staff were lovely, friendly and attentive. The games area by the pool gave a welcome respite from the sun. The food and drink prices were reasonable. Plenty of kitchenware in rooms and towels changed/bins emptied regularly. Apartments were spacious with great aircon.

United KingdomShuttle to town only makes four journeys per day and it is on request. Need to arrange a return journey with the hotel. Also, the one day we needed it it wasn't running. There are a lot of steps from the town to the hotel if you choose to walk but it's only €4 in a taxi. The bathroom was perfectly adequate but could do with a refurb. This is a mainly British and Irish resort and lots of the bars reflect that. Lots of Irish Scottish English pub style venues. Authentic Spanish experience is harder to find in the resort.
Spacious modern apartment with amazing view of bay (we went for the superior option). View from the lower floors will be obscured by another hotel. Very effective air con. Pool is a good size and cleaned every morning. Pool bar serves decent snacks and drinks. All staff very polite and helpful. Good location for both the beach and the quieter top end of the resort (Costa de la calma) which has some nice restaurants serving authentic Spanish food. Palma is a great city and not far. We went twice on the bus.

NetherlandsOne of the bedrooms in our apartment was so small that we couldn't fit the suitcase on the floor. Kitchen appliances could be renewed (e.g. ancient grill (?) microwave, barely working cooker). Not possible to open the gates from the car, one person needs to step out and open it.
Good value for money. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay, all as shown on the photos. It was quiet and safe. Enjoyed a sunset on the balcony. Didn't get to check the pool.

United KingdomThe pool water was not cleaned the whole time we were there for the 5 day trip, there was often floating things in the pool when swimming around eg bugs, leaves, bird poo. The life guards sat on their phones for 90% of the day in the corner of the higher pool, and did not observe what was going on. There was an incident during our stay with someone dislocating a shoulder in the pool, and the lifeguard did not help, just informed him to go to a medical centre (he was very young and didn’t seem to help at all). The reception staff (night staff) are extremely rude and intimidating for a young group of girls to be around. Initial thoughts were just that they were having a bad day, however on multiple occasions we were accused of being abusive and rude to the staff which certainly wasn’t the case. We were lied about to management, and upon checkout was threatened to be left with no place to leave our luggage or have a shower in the communal space. This was all because we were ‘too loud’ in our room, and we had multiple knocks on the door with the staff whispering ‘open the door girls’ in our room at 2am. The initial door answer was us apologising for being loud, and if this was the case we wasn’t aware, to which we were then almost harassed a further time when we were then in bed due to ‘noise complaints’ that were unfolded later on the following day. The rooms were nice and spacious, however during the 5 days we were there they were not cleaned once, beds were not changed. The floor was covered in dust and sand when we arrived, and this stayed the same during our time here. The toilet/ bathroom had an awful sewage smell in the room, which was particularly stronger after using the water. This is most definitely not a party destination hotel, which we were not aware of when booking, however this is not what we were looking for hence staying in Santa ponsa and not magaluf.
The environment of the pool was very calm and relaxed, the pool bar staff were extremely helpful and kind and couldn’t do enough for you whenever you ordered. Pool side was clean, and no empty cups/ plates were ever left out around the pool for any longer than 5 minutes. There were 2 pools, so plenty of choice to pick a sunbed, and never left without somewhere to relax and sunbathe. Spacious rooms, and very big balcony’s, great views if you get a pool side room, as this also overlooks the sea if you are high enough.
