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 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 KingdomSpyros was the nicest and most facilitating host that we've ever had anywhere. Started our stay by going through a map and recommending different spots around the island, as well as arranging our transport rentals. He is a host that goves above and beyond! Also a beautiful property, and not a single complaint, completely made our trip!

One of the nicest places we have ever stayed. Spyros was so welcoming & helpful since our late arrival. The rooms are clean and comfortable & there is great swimming beach out the front. It is in the most peaceful corner on Mykonos, but still only a few minutes via scooter to town. Breakfast & coffee in their cafe was also spot on

United KingdomThis place is truly special, thanks to the amazing hospitality shown by Spiros and Hope. Spiros helped us find the best beaches and restaurants away from the crowds to really experience the beauty of the island. The cafe was a wonderful place to come back to and relax with a drink in the evenings after a day at the beach and to have a delicious leisurely breakfast to start the day. This is the place to come if you want to find the authentic, bohemian side of Mykonos and to experience Greek hospitality at its best. The rooms are lovely, spacious with a contemporary take on traditional style and have all the comforts you need - great shower, fluffy towels. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

ItalyBest place to stay in Mykonos! The hotel is very nice and cozy, right in front of a quiet stone beach! Perfect if you want to enjoy the quiet side of the island. Spyros is an amazing host, very kind and always smiling, he does everything to make you feel at home. His cocktails are the best, definitively a must try!

GermanyThere was nothing we did not like about this place and its hospitable people!
We have seen many places in many years, but our stay at Baba Houlakia definitely is among the most outstanding ones. And this is not only for the wonderful garden with palm trees, hammock, deck chairs, etc. - it is for the people! Elpida, Spyros and the whole team are so heartily people who will take care that your stay in Houlakia and on Mykonos will be as perfect as possible. Their hospitality is exceptional and we enjoyed the small talk and nice exchange every day. You can rely on their tips and they will help you with advice for any need. The suite is nicely equipped with cosy furniture and a nice veranda where you can enjoy the sunset. A perfect place, just a bit remote so that you´ll need a means for transportation, ATV, bike or a car. By foot you will need 15 minutes to Agios Stefanos beach with mini market and restaurants. You can also have breakfast, snacks and drinks at Baba Houlakia - all very tasty!

GermanyThe place is very pretty, the room very big and the bathroom was very nice. We did like everything. We were four days/five nights there and everyday the cleaning lady cleaned the room, she was very friendly too. . Spyros at the reception is such a nice person, friendly, welcoming, helpful in everything we asked him. It was my birthday, so my husband asked him beforehand if he could have a cake for that morning and he did. My hubby surprised me with a lovely, delicious chocolate cake. :) Thank you Spyros. We did rent a car for those days and so we could explore the island, when we went to the city (Old Port, Little Venice, Chora, Windmills) we drove until the free parking right before the old port. From there you can walk everywhere.

United KingdomThe property was lovely and perfect for our short stay in Mykonos. The hosts were amazing to help us with any questions and a ride to the port when we needed it. Its a fair walk into the main part of Mykonos so you could get a bus or taxi but definitely worth it.

United KingdomNothing probably if they had a twin room, it would be more comfortable for us (travelling with a friend) but we didn’t ask for it tbh
Everything was excellent, Spiros and Elpida are doing the extra mile to make your stay amazing. The area is very quiet and atmosphere is relaxing, everything is done with taste. You’ll need a car to get there, but I’d recommend hiring a car for Mykonos anyway. We particularly liked our drinks in the evening at the terrace overlooking the sea and sunset. Very clean, spacious rooms. You can swim just in front of the hotel, but will need to drive to visit a proper beach.

ItalyEverything was fantastic - the only thing is that is located on the northern part of the island in a rather quiet area which makes it unique but slightly more difficult for moving around. We rented a scooter and it takes 10/15 min to get to Mykonos Town so it is easily doable with a scooter or car.
Loved the accommodation, the room was very spacious with a lovely outdoor space and a small balcony as well. Spyros and his family were super nice, always available to help and give good suggestions. Amazing communal terrace with views of the seaside
