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 KingdomHonestly, this is a place where you will only have 'wow' to express. Lena wasn't at home when we arrived so her husband welcomed us. The room was super nice and new, and we didn't expect it to be that big! The room was clean and had everything you needed. Lena also provided us some guidelines when checking in and she was super lovely and responsive. 25-30 mins walk to Oia city centre, if you rent a car then this is definitely the place to stay. Thanks for having us! 😍

United KingdomNo dislikes to note. It’s a gentle 10+ minute stroll into the centre of Oia but that’s no bad thing as it’s nice and quiet.
Stylish, beautifully presented and spotless villa. Car park directly opposite is really handy if you hire a car too.

We stayed as a family in a 3 bedroom apartment with great facilities and a beautiful view. We were well looked after by Lena and the team who were very warm and welcoming. The village of Finikia is a lovely quiet location with a few restaurants/taverna’s and a shop, and it is walkable to Oia. From Oia you can get a bus into Fira and from Fira you can get buses elsewhere around the Island which we enjoyed doing. The weather at the end of October was perfect for us, and was plenty warm enough - some days it hit 26 degrees. We would definitely recommend Pink Freud Villas as a good base when visiting Santorini.

United KingdomGoing home!
Everything! It was immaculate when we arrived. Lena (the host) was so accommodating. She sent us a brief run down on the local attractions, shops and cafes. This was really accurate and helpful. The pictures on here do not do the place any justice. The views from the front stretches far as Ios (Chora.) Finikia is a short walk. The restaurants are very authentic and the staff can't do enough. Oia (pronounced Eya,) is close by and a nice walk to the centre. Being in the building trade I have a keen eye for fixtures, fittings and finishing off. I was unable to pick fault with anything! The kitchen had everything, the lounge had plenty of space and comfy seating. We didn't have a bad night's sleep, due to the beds being comfortable. Both bathrooms had all we needed. We even had Lena's cat visit (Nychta,) which my kids loved. The pool was cleaned every day and Maria supplied clean towels and cleaned every few days. She would even clean the kitchen and put things away if you requested it (there was a small charge for the kitchen cleaning.) Maria's cheese pies are the best in the island! Lena, this place is a credit to you.

Mr
United KingdomThere was nothing we didn’t like about the property.
The Pink Freud Villas Santorini has everything you need for a fabulous stay. The property is Spotlessly clean, Comfortable, with lots of fresh towels along with a very well Equipped kitchen. We also loved the outdoor area with a private Courtyard to the front with the morning sun and an amazing private pool to the back of the property that was very relaxing. On arrival we were greeted with a very warm welcoming from our lovely host Lena, plus we were given Freshly baked Greek pies that were delicious. We are also Impressed to find a few food items and drinks in the fridge for our stay.

The property was modern and very clean. Lena was very helpful meeting all of our needs. We were pleasantly surprised to be presented with some freshly baked pasties. The kitchen had juice, bread, homemade preserves, cheese and wine. Lena made us feel welcomed and special. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again. We would definitely recommend this property to our family and friends. We felt at home. The plunge pool was an added bonus.

United KingdomEverything was perfect for what we wanted!
Our stay at Pink Freud was absolutely exceptional. If you are in between deciding on accommodations, look no further! Lena is an incredible host and made our trip so special. She is someone who really cares about the details and wanted to ensure that our trip, end-to-end, was perfect. Even before we arrived, she provided a very detailed list of her favorite spots in Santorini and helped with reservations for both restaurants and taxis - which soon became our favorite spots on the trip too :). We were welcomed with local treats which was such a special touch after our long journey. The villa itself was impeccable - super clean and comfortable for the 4 of us, with modern features and Greek charm. There were times we didn't even want to leave the villa and just enjoy the views, pool, comfortable interior. Before booking the trip, we were debating on what location would be best to stay in. After visiting Pink Freud, our whole group confirmed this is the exact location we'd want to be in for the future. This is close enough to Oia (less than 10 minute beautiful walk), so close enough to the hustle and bustle, but a perfect little oasis away from the crowds. We went in September and Oia was still incredibly busy, so this was the perfect location to be close to pop into the town and walk down to Ammoudi Bay, as well as visit other areas by a short taxi like Fira or the beaches in the South. The town of Finika is wonderful, with so many incredible local restaurants right at the doorstep. We were really so pleased with the location, as this was something so important to us. Lena was also very gracious in accommodating our later flight schedule on the day of departures, which was so appreciated and helped us massively. Lena's hospitality is something we will always remember! Thank you again, we can't wait to be back!!
