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.).

United KingdomSome of the staff were a bit tired, it's probably been a very long season so I get it. The service at the pool could have been a bit quicker/more attentive. They pool sun beds were comfortable but very tired/stained. It was a bit annoying that you had to pay for the rooftop pool, even as a guest. I understand members of the public.
Great location and the main pool was beautiful. Breakfast was very good with a really wide selection of fresh produce. In general the staff were helpful and happy. Complimentary beach towels that you could swap daily was a great idea. The rooms were spacious and very modern. Overall we loved our stay, the constructive parts of the review are so the hotel can improve further.

United KingdomWe think a section of the rooftop lounge could be better purposes for hotel guests who are naturists. Willing to pay extra to use it . I don’t believe the club type purpose(blue marlin) will be a success. We are regular visitors to the hotel Faro and believe the clientele are not the club lounge type
The location to the beach and restaurants was perfect

IsraelI reserved a room for one week with breakfast and dinner. As I was invited for dinner outside the hotel I requested to cancel two dinners in advance. They refuse, I can understand refusal to cancel one day stay, but not dinner which is prepared for a big croud.
Great location - on the ocean with a beach Great meals, Very comfortable and a nice sea view from the room The staff was great, especially Daniel Ruth, the Guest Experience Manager, who was extremely nice, helped me upon arrival, and drove me to the conference I attended. all the other staff were extremely nice as well.

United KingdomThe evening food was not to my taste but that’s just my preference. The ala carte looked amazing and very well presented I just opted for the buffet option which was good
If you are looking for pure luxury in incredible surroundings and to be looked after by the most lovely staff then this is the place. A special mention to the guest experience manager he literally made my stay by listening and understanding my needs and did everything he could to really ensure my stay was perfect.

United KingdomThe pre-authorisation of € when checking in. I was originally asked for €50 per day - €350 for the week. I asked to reduce this to €25 per day as I already had my money budgeted. The hotel essentially takes this money from you as a “hold” then they bill you accordingly upon check out. It means if you have an X amount for the holiday you can’t use those funds elsewhere as the hotel takes it from you. I’ve challenged this before and told it wasn’t possible to not do. I’ve visited the hotel 3 times, twice last year. It would be nice if there’s a note on file upon check in to say you’re a frequent visitor to the hotel as I find the comment “first time here?” a little odd, it would be nice to be remembered.. it’s the small touches. They’ve now introduced massages in the downstairs part of the hotel which is great - I enjoyed my massage, I’d recommend the hotel makes this space into a calming oasis rather than in an old salon room as it’s quite noisy with people outside the door etc. I probably wouldn’t go again unless it was a proper treatment room that was sound proof.
The staff are amazing - always got a smile on their faces! The hotel is spotless. Love the pool!

United KingdomWent to the sky bat for cocktails absolutely beautiful stayed there fir hours. Thought we would come to the down stairs pool. We asked 3 servers for a menu all 3 told us 2 minutes. Out of 3 one finally came back with a menu an hour later at this point I had already found one online. Ordered 2 strawberry daiquiris. When they came they tasted like water with alcohol no flavour at all I took them back and left straight after
Hotel us beautiful. Location is perfect.

SwitzerlandOnly thing that I didn't like was the fact that nowhere in the room was enough proper lighting to do one's make-up (the small magnifying mirror with embedded lights isn't suitable for doing a full-face makeup). Everything else was excellent.
Staff was very professional and kind and did a stellar job altogether. The combination of bufet-style dining with an a'la carte menu worked very well, excellent concept with a good food selection. Room was kept very clean & it was always tidied up nicely. I also appreciated the direct access to the beach.

Everything from the welcome to the goodbye was amazing. It’s clean, fresh, modern and the staff really do excel in providing the best customer experience. Breakfast is the best I’ve ever experienced Some may think the hotel price is on the high side but you really do get what you pay for. I would recommend this hotel and I will certainly be staying here again.

The location couldn’t have been better right on the beach and code to all the restaurants. The hotel had lovely decor in every part and especially the rooms. We had partially sea view but could see plenty of the sea and sand. The sky lounge on the roof was something else, well worth a visit.
