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...).

United KingdomFor the older person the walk from the beach to the rooms is uphill and in the heat of the summer quite exhausting but for those a bit younger and fitter looking for a quiet and peaceful location this is ideal. If you are with a car it is perfect.
Owners/staff so very helpful. Room clean and view impressive. Nice and quiet and ideal if you want a quiet getaway with every amenity in walking distance.

United KingdomGreat family run small apartment hotel. Grandmother Mother & Daughter are all on hand polite, happy kean to help in any way. The cleaning lady was wonderful, happy, joyful rooms cleaned every day , were spotless. Rooms are small & dated Yet you don't spend all day an night in your room. They are just right to sleep shower, etc There is a small pool which we found ideal when we spent a lazy day at the apartment. Sea is a 6-minute walk downhill, which is a black stone beach Free sun beds & umbrella if you eat in the many Reasturants along the beach. Clean tidy beach You walk pass the Taverns & local shops supermarkets bakery etc Beautiful quiet area of Kamari just at the base of the Ancient Thera Mountain trail , stunning views both of Mountains & Sea. All in all, a great stay, peace & quite 🙏

The breakfast was good. The options were quite varied, and they served us extra traditional fruit. The hotel is not so far from the Kamari beach and the restaurants nearby (Danas, which serves delicious traditional Greek cuisine).

GermanyThe bed wasn’t the most comfortable and the room was not cleaned correctly. We could find dead bugs under the kitchen and after repeated complains the owner got it cleaned. Breakfast is very basic.
It is closer to the beach at the same time also to Ancient Thera hiking trails. The pool area provides a nice view over the mountains and the sea. Thanks to the owner we could leave the luggage and use the pool until the taxi to the airport arrived.

HungaryThe air condition works only when you are in the apartman. The breakfast is weak. Some cock crows in the middle of every night.
Fine accommodation, clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice staff. They changed the towels every day. Beautiful view to the sea. Quiet area by the pool. The apartment is close to Kamari beach, close to the bus stop to Fira. There is a lot of restaurants, shops nearby.

SerbiaLocation on Google maps is slightly off - the establishment is actually a couple hundred meters away and up the hill from where the map is showing. The name board is barely visible, once you get there, especially at night, but this should be an easy fix for the owners.
Excellent location! At the backdrop of a rocky hill formation, to the far right hand side of Kamari beach (best part of the beach). Quiet, with stunning views all round and beautiful pool area. Basic but spotless clean rooms, with daily change of towels and linen.

United KingdomOne big downfall of this place was the horrible internet connection, the WIFI did not work AT ALL and my mobile data wouldn’t work due to the property being located on the bottom edge of the Ancient Thira mountain. Also the location was another disappointment as due to the steep road it made it impossible to go out frequently by foot and we had to take a taxi each time (if your travelling with elderly people keep that in mind). The property also has quite a few steps to get to the rooms.
The hotel/apartments were beautiful and were in the style of traditional Greek homes. The apartments were spacious and had natural lighting. It had AMAZING VIEWS! It also had a small smart flat screen TV which had cable, YouTube and Netflix which was important for me. The cleaning services was also frequent and to a good standard, you were supplied with fresh towels each day which was superb! Due to it being a small property we had the swimming pool to ourselves which was a plus.

FranceAlthough we appreciate that some good measures were taken for the pandemic, we felt a bit disappointed of the quality of the breakfast (boxes delivered at the room) for the price paid of the stay. Also the address provided on booking.com website should be more specific, or at least update the name of the establishment as there is another 'Ancient Thera Studios' in Perissa!
The views are great! Mountains, sea all around, we felt we were in the middle of desert but in fact it was not the case. The studio was clean and well looked after and seems to have undergone renovation. We (think we) were the only guests onsite which felt very private and quiet!
