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 KingdomThe rooms aren't huge but honestly I barely spent anytime in my room anyways :)
My stay at the blue sky was wonderful! Maria met me at the ferry port and explained everything and gave me some great advice on what to do during my stay. She also upgraded my room for free. The pool is great for relaxing, and the breakfast was great too both times I had it :) I would definitely stay here again, Maria is such a warm host and the rest of the hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating. She also gave me a ride back to the port to get my return ferry. The location is also brilliant, a 7 minute walk into town and a 15 minute walk to the beach, it's a steep uphill walk back up but I was glad to work off all the Greek food I'd eaten.

United KingdomIt is on a hill, so bear that in mind when booking, if you have mobility issues, but it did not affect us.
This was a gem of a place! Really good value for money. The pool is beautiful with stunning views. It’s less than a 10 minute walk uphill to the main town and a short walk downhill to a beautiful beach, buses are frequent and can easily get a Bus back from the beach. The hosts were so helpful and collected us from ferry port. Added bonus of food and drinks available from the bar, which were really nice. One of our favourite stays this holiday.

She recommended and Greek festival which we attended and bumped into her where she then found us a place to sit and provided us with the free food from the festival. Super friendly and hospitable!

This is the second time we've stayed here! We love it! It's a perfect location within walking distance to the beach and town. You can also spend a realxing day by their pool which is so beautiful. The food and drinks were excellent. Marousa and her family are so welcoming and helpful. Both times we stayed she picked us up and dropped us at the ferry. The rooms are great too! We loved it here and will return!

AustriaOur host was very kind and nice, she picked us up from the Port in Ios, where we arrived with the ferry. We could already check-in at 10 am, the beautiful beach is just 20 minutes walking distance. We stayed for 1 night during low-season and had the whole beach by ourselves. The area was quiet. To the town it’s also only a short walking distance.

United KingdomThis is by far the best place we have stayed at on our travels. The hosts are amazing and can help with any recommendations for local places to visit. Getting picked up and dropped off at the port was a bonus too. The place has an amazing new pool and bar with a great view. Great value for money and we will definitely recommend this place to others.

AustraliaWe didn't have drinking cups and kitchen utensils to use the stove.
We loved everything about Blue Sky! The staff were incredibly nice and friendly! We were picked up from the port which was a major help as it's about a 10 - 15 minute drive from the port. We were checked in early and our room was right next to the pool with such a great view! The pool was amazing! It was a big infinity pool with very cold temperature and lounge beds to soak up the sun. There is a bar next to the pool which played relaxing and chill beats throughout the day. Our bed was very comfortable and the airconditioning worked great. Our room was cleaned daily which was a bonus. There was a kitchenette with a stove to boil water and a fridge to keep drinks cool. Great location to the main part of town. Very informative, local and helpful host who was able to organise transport for us too.
