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.).

United KingdomLoved it all
Great little place. Very homey and comfortable. Lovely and quiet. Would definitely recommend and definitely visit again. Close to beach and coastal path. We came with our young grandchildren and loved that it didnt have kids clubs, entertainment or bars. It's close to everything you need to exhaust them and evenings spent with good old fashioned family time. Absolutely loved our time here.

United KingdomThe only issue was the key is quite fiddly to lock and unlock the chalet - it’s just a case (as with many locks) of getting the knack of it. Don’t panic and assume you’re locked out if it doesn’t work first time! I didn’t contact Liz about this so haven’t marked it down at all for it but just bear it in mind if you stay here.
The chalet was clean and welcoming, and the instructions received from the owner were clear and helpful. The welcome tray was appreciated and we had a lovely stay all in all. A great location to explore the island from and I very much hope to return. I am quite heavily disabled so was pleased to have parking right outside the chalet and a good sized walk-in shower. People with more mobility than I could easily walk to the beach (one of the best in Europe for finding fossils), Wildheart big cat sanctuary, dinosaur museum and Sandown itself from the holiday village. There is a good selection of games provided to keep adults and children entertained.

United KingdomBe aware that there’s very little phone signal in the area, nothing within the control of the owner though! Second bedroom is fine for kids, a little bit small for an adult although still perfectly usable.
It was really good value for money, communication with the owner was prompt and helpful, the location was great, especially for dog walking, and the chalet was well and thoughtfully equipped. I have to admit I was a little worried about being cold given the time of year, but we were very cosy and comfortable, the heaters are very effective. Was generally delighted to find out how dog friendly the Isle of Wight is too.
