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 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 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 KingdomNot a fault of the property but taxi’s are hard to come by and expensive, so be prepared to get the bus or walk into the main town.
The hosts of this property simply can’t do enough for you! Evita collected us from the sea port and returned us to the airport at the end of our stay, free of charge. We were informed of all the key things to do on the island and were provided with some excellent restaurant tips! Evita constantly ensured we had all the information we needed to make the most of our trip, including bus timetables and detailed directions. We received glorious spinach and cheese pies on arrival from her mother, then sweet pies and chocolate cake on our subsequent days, all delicious and home made, what a lovely treat! The hotel itself is small and boutique, with quirky but beautiful decor and the private hot tubs are an absolute plus! The pool is small but lovely and helped us survive the heatwave! The accommodation is just a short walk (10-15 minutes) down hill into Mykonos town which is stunning but the immediate neighbourhood (2 mins) also has plenty of restaurants and a mini market to stock up your room. This was the last leg of our honeymoon and we were delighted to spend it at Mykonos Secret Spot!

SlovakiaThanks to Evita and her family was our stay at Mykonos unforgettable experience. We are grateful for the kindness and we could not have asked for better hosts. They went above and beyond to make us feel like home and also providing us tips for around local area. Everyday the hosts prepared for us traditional greek desserts that we really enjoyed. When we came to Mykonos the hosts picked us up at the airport and for the end of our vacation they dropped us off at the airport. The apartment was beautifully maintained, cleaned and equipped with all things we could possibly need. If we ever come back we definitely book this place again :)

Our stay at Mykonos Secret Spot was pleasant, sweet, and a memorable one. Right from our arrival at the port, check-in to the room, exploring Mykonos (clubs, beaches, sunset points, light house & old city) upto our departure, Evita was super helpful, friendly and on the go. She was quick in response, and her recommendations were super amazing. We genuinely liked the hospitality provided by the family. The place is 15 mins walk from the old town. Highly recommended!

Czech RepublicLocation was really not good for us. Good for people with a car, who want to travel around the island. There were good food and míní-market options nearby, but going to and back from city center is not something you want to do more than once in a while by foot.
The staff of the Secret Spot are just amazing and heavily contributed to our great holiday. We got a lot of extra tips, support, great snacks and family feeling

Every morning, she delighted us with a variety of delicious foods, adding a special touch to our stay. The accommodations were pristine and impeccably clean, making us feel right at home. Her local recommendations were spot on, enhancing our experience on this stunning island. Full recommendation!!

BrazilThe kindness and care of Marita and her husband made my stay in Mykonos very special. Both are very kind and give you all the support during your stay like pick-up at ferry/airport, tips of best places to eat and beaches to visit, recommendation of rental car shops and so on. Besides that every morning they come up with a greek local dish for breakfast. Their location is very nearby downtown, the room is very clean, the hot tub is a plus and coming back from the beach and relax in it. My stay was wonderful and I fully recommend it.

ArgentinaAbsolutely nothing.
I wish I could rate this place an 11! Property managed by the amazing owners, who from the beginning were very communicative and helpful, they even picked us up from the airport for free, something unthinkable in other places. For sure this service is something they do if they are available as I can imagine it’s a lot to ask for every day with all the guests, so it was highly appreciated. At our arrival they showed us our room and gave us a map marking us all their recommendations. They also set up a car rental for us with a great company and price. Plus they received us with tasty greet treats. Room was perfect for a couple, with a kitchen that had everything we needed to cook small meals. Bed and pillows were comfortable and toilet and shower were great too. A big plus was the private jacuzzi in which we relaxed after a long day of beach/sightseeing. Everything was super clean. There is also a shared pool with sun beds and a nice terras to watch the sunset from, on our first day we did this together with them and other guests toasting with a bottle of wine they opened for us. When things couldn’t get any better, they continued their tasty treats every morning and even considering our food intolerances/tastes. How sweet is that! Although the place is just perfect and amazing value for price, the owners and the love for what they do make the super big difference. We feel very lucky to having found this property and confirming all the amazing reviews they have, they for sure deserve all of the lovely comments. Please don’t hesitate and just book, you won’t regret it.

They helped us choose the best places to visit, we did everything as per their reccomandations and it was perfect. The room was amazing, the outside area as well. It is surley the best place to stay in Mykonos, with easy access to the bus (going to a number of beautiful beaches) and a short walk to the city center. Thank you for making our trip perfect!

United KingdomEverything was great, nothing negative.
The owners Marita and Thanassis were as wonderful as all the previous reviews have said . Exceptional attention to detail, treats every day, and Thanassis even collected us from the ferry which was a great help . The private hot tub was very relaxing and the benefit of being a bit further out from the main town is you have more space and they even have a small pool and sunbathing area. Definitely 10 out of 10.

United Kingdom-
It’s taken me a while to write this review because I needed to make sure I captured my experience as truly as possible. I don’t want to be that person, but let me own up to the fact that I never leave reviews unless it’s extremely great or bad. And this is my longest review ever. All I can say is that the experience I had at Mykonos Secret Spot (MSS) has genuinely been the absolute BEST one I’ve had yet. I travel a lot, and to put it in context, Greece was the 17th I’ve been to this year, so you can understand how many places I’ve had to compare, yet it came out as the best. From hostels to 5-star hotels, not a single place has come this close. Two days before my arrival, I got a message from Marita asking about my arrival time as usual, however, what was different was that I was provided a WhatsApp number to contact. Fast forward to the day of my trip, I got a text from her asking what my flight number was, which I provided to her. Unfortunately, my flight was delayed for two hours which meant I’d arrive at midnight, or close to it, and I communicated that, to which she replied that it wasn’t an issue. On arrival to Mykonos, I immediately got a message from her welcoming me to the city and then proceeded to say that her husband was on the way to pick me up. I was so touched because I only paid for the room. Her husband arrived and waited for me to come out of the airport, he loaded my suitcase and drove me to the hotel. He was so polite and kind and funny too. Told me some jokes, made me comfortable, explained some things about the city to me, and showed me the route home and to the city. Also where to eat, etc. I spent the night in the warm jacuzzi. The next morning, I came out and Marita handed me a beautiful plate of nicely made Greek food for breakfast. This was extremely kind of her. They made me feel so welcome, like family. The second day, I stayed back at the hotel because honestly, the place in itself is worth a day spent.
