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.).

United StatesFitim the host was beyond helpful! The villa with its rooftop terrace and beautiful views were amazing. We loved that it was slightly separate from the crowds of tourists and villas. The water filters were invaluable and the beds were comfortable. The villa was a cooling relief from the intense heat of Santorini.

United StatesHave to be prepared for the steps. It was no problem for us, but something to be considered. Only minor complaint would be that the pots/pans should be replaced. {Teflon frying pan was very scratched.)
Beautiful location. Wonderful view, where we could watch the sunset away from the crowd. Very comfortable for our 3-person family. Our son was able to have a bit of his own space. Two separate full bathrooms.

United StatesThe offerings of scrambled eggs for breakfast were not that great.
The croissants were amazing, the juice tasted fresh squeezed, and our favorites breakfast offerings were probably the spanikopita and the yogurt with fruit and granola. The views were outstanding and completely worth the stay. The sunset views were off the hook! There were many steep steps to get down to our villa, and it was on the main donkey path for tired tourists walking back up so we had to watch where we stepped. It was entertaining to watch all the people riding the donkeys back up the hill. Espresso machine was a welcome every morning and we appreciated the AC, comfortable beds and nice bathrooms.

AustraliaNothing to do with the Villa. The donkey and mule droppings on the stairs to Amoudi bay is something that needs to be addressed by the Authorities.
Hands down, one of the top three villas in Oia. Stunning views of the Caldera sunset, Amoudi bay as well as the village. Fitim is a wonderful host and daily breakfast was delicious. The villa was cleaned daily. If you don't mind the 88 steps to get to the villa, you'll absolutely love this place.

United StatesWater pressure and hot water were low/poor throughout; after we'd bathe our kids there would be little left over for us. Beware if you are sharing with many people. Beware of the steps - the work to get down and up to this unit is real. Also donkeys are regularly carrying people up and down, so you have to be careful not to step in their poop which is an additional hassle. But ultimately, it is still worth it.
The primary reason to rent this place is for a private unobstructed view of the Oia sunset and the mountain side with the picturesque Santorini houses/white buildings that are so popular. This hotel has several places to sit outside including a table and chairs, loungers, and another bench/table. The breakfast was incredibly tasty as well (you get a menu and can order the day before). Finally, Fitim was an incredibly responsive and helpful host who assisted with baggage on arrival/departure, and everything else in between. In short, he was great.

United StatesThe property is great, no complaints other than not having the realization that going up and down everyday is challenging. we loved the experience but it was good cardio exercise.
The Villa is the last independent house on the steps to Ammoudi Bay. It is very private location, has ample space, 2 bathrooms, beautiful patio upstairs and the best sunset view in Oia. in fact people pay to come to Oia to view the sunset. The views of the ocean, Ammoudi bay, view of the iconic Oia houses and is equipped with a full kitchen. The best part of the morning is the sumptuous break fast that is delivered to the house which you can order as per your liking from a menu. Fitim who takes care of the property checks in every day to see if you need anything. He is super helpful and helped us carry our heavy suitcases both up and down the hill. More on the location later (see in things we did not like) If you need a private house far form the crowds and enjoy both super and expansive views of Oia then look no where else. You will go back with great memories for a lifetime. To approach the property you will have to talk down about 85+ steps and can be challenging for most people, especially when you have to climb up everyday to visit the shops or go out to other parts of Santorini. For sunset dinner you have to walk 158 steps to Ammoudi bay where you have to visit for the best sunset dinner in Oia. Going down may be OK but coming up 158 steps to the property is super tough for most people. There is an option to get a ride on the mules/donkeys that cost about 10 Euros each way. A big shoutout to Fitim for taking care of us so well.
