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.).

SerbiaThere is no such a thing.
Literally everything. Hosts are very kind, always at disposal. Super clean place, big garden, nice apartments with comfy beds, beachfront area shaded with palm trees, private (rocky) access to the clear sea for snorkeling and swimming. This place is just perfect for couples. This was our 2nd time here, and surely not the last.

The semi private beach was REALLY nice to have. The water was crystal clear and refreshing. About half an hour to Heraklion was perfect for us.

United StatesEverything was fine but be forewarned that it is helpful to have water shoes with a good tread as it is a steep rocky path down to the water. Also you need a bit of flexibility and strength to get out of the water onto the rocky ledge. I am 69 and it was fine. There were some small footholds in the rocks and I grabbed onto the rocks to pull myself out.
The private cove was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. This is a magical location shared with only a few people staying at Diana’s. The room had everything needed but wasn’t fancy. The decor was dated but who cares? The setting was quiet and amazing. We felt fortunate to have discovered this secret special place. The written communication regarding check in, transportation and parking was speedy and clear. Eleni, who was on site,was very sweet and helpful. She let me know immediately after we had checked out that I had left my Kindle behind and waited for me to retrieve it. It was a short 5 minute walk to tavernas and groceries. The beach in town was busy so we felt all the more how lucky we were to have our little private cove.

LithuaniaIt's sad that there are abandoned buildings across the bay, disturbing the view... I noticed those ruins have been there for a long time. They're asking 4 million euros if you're interested:D
Amazing views, a small private beach (I went snorkeling!), everything was great! We stayed a few times and enjoyed the lower levels more because they had direct access to the patio. One of the best price/quality ratios we found in Crete!

CanadaThe biggest problem are the small red ants, the positives are plenty about this place but they were everywhere in the kitchen if you leave any sort of food, even if it’s packaged. And the worst part is that they are on your bed as well, some even crawl on you. Unfortunately it wasn’t pleasant but still an amazing place.
One of the most beautiful views from a balcony I have ever seen, especially for this price, it’s amazing and the location is perfect. You have a private “beach” you can snorkel and swim and relax. The place is clean, the maid does an amazing job everyday. The kitchen is stacked as well.

This is the 2nd time I have stayed here. It is great value for money, with its own private swimming spot at the bottom of the property. The view is so relaxing. The staff are friendly and keep the place spotless. Will definitely be back!

LithuaniaDon't leave anything open in the kitchen; small ants will arrive in no time. But as fast as they arrive, they disappear just as quickly.
We loved it here. It's the best price/value ratio we found in Crete. We stayed here twice. The first time, we got an upper room, and due to high winds, the sea was not calm, so we didn't enjoy the little private beach. But the second visit was 10/10. We got a lower floor room, which we liked more. It offers private sunbeds and direct access to the outside. The sea was calm, and we went snorkeling! Also, if you go down and take the path on the left, you will find a hidden bench overlooking Agia Palagia! P.S. You can climb down to the small beach on the right side; there are three carved steps.

My son recently had the pleasure of staying at Diana Apartments in Agia Pelagia, and he can confidently say that this accommodation exceeded his expectations in every way. His stay was exceptional, from the fantastic location to the attentive hosts and the peaceful private beach. The location of Diana Apartments couldn't have been better. It's a 5-minute walk from the main beach, restaurants, and supermarkets. This proximity made it incredibly convenient to explore the charming town of Agia Pelagia and enjoy its vibrant culinary scene. Whether looking for a relaxing beach day or a lively evening out, everything is just a stone's throw away. One of the standout features of Diana Apartments is its private beach area with loungers and crystal-clear waters. This secluded spot is perfect for those seeking a tranquil and relaxing stay. While the accommodation is basic, it provides everything you need for a fantastic vacation. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The simplicity adds to the place's charm. The hosts at Diana Apartments truly set this place apart. They were incredibly attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Not only did they allow me to check in early, but they also went out of their way to ensure my stay was enjoyable. Their warm hospitality made me feel like a valued guest, and I couldn't have asked for better hosts. In summary, Diana Apartments in Agia Pelagia is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of convenience, relaxation, and genuine hospitality. The short 20-minute ride from the airport makes it easily accessible, and the location allows you to immerse yourself in the beauty of Crete.

United KingdomVery little to complain about. The bathroom is very small but it wasn't really a problem. The private cove is lovely but on a choppy day did not feel very safe for swimming. This didn't matter too much as the main beach is so near.
Location is perfect, very near main beach and resort but also quiet and tucked away. The view from the room was stunning. Eleni cleaned the apartment every day and changed the bed linen. It was excellent value for money.
