Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SpainEverything was PERFECT, I hope we could be there more days!
This place is AMAZING 😍 Just 7 minutes by motorbike from Oia, is an incredible place where you can just chill and relax in Santorini (something that it’s difficult if you sleep in Oia). The owner is very helpful and nice and the breakfast was amazing. Having the breakfast in the terrace with the pool and sea views is worthless ❤️❤️❤️❤️

GermanyNothing in particular , only thing the apartment is far from villages like Fira and Oia to be travelled on foot. As Santorini does not have well connected transport , it sometimes become very difficult . You have to depend on local buses if you want to go the more popular spot , and santorini local buses are not punctual at all. Advisable is you must take guided tour which provides drop and pickup to this hotel ( all the tour do not provide that ) or if you want to avail local buses , be flexilible with your schedule.Other thing is always taxi but you need to book them in advance and charges vary from 15 - 40 euro depending on the distance from the hotel to your destination. Katia do help us to get taxi on-time whenever there is a need. Other thing is as the hotel is faraway from the popular spots there is no resturant or market near by. You have to order food from outside through delivery. Very few hotels provide delivery in this region , so you will not get a lot of choice about food , also most of the resturants don't accept card for food delivery , so make sure you have enough cash available to pay . Unfortunately there is no atm near the hotel , so you have to go to Fira or Oia to get cash. But having said all these I still want to go to the hotel again because of the sea view and amazing hospitality.
Apartment is superb . The views of the sea are incredible from the room ( room with sea view ). You can watch caldera sunset view just from your balcony . Breakfast was also good and more than adequate .Special mention to Katia who is in-charge of the hotel , she was always available and made sure we had a beautiful stay.

United KingdomNothing. We enjoyed everything about this property.
I love everything about this property. The Manager of the property, Katia, I hope I spelt her name right was so amazing. From promptly replying to our messages before arrival to helping us book airport transfers. It was my wife's birthday week and I requested for birthday cake for her before the arrival and she was presented with a cake. Katia was so helpful during our stay. There was a night we got lost in town while looking for a Bus and we missed the Bus. I messaged Katia on WhatsApp and she promptly helped us to book a taxi. I will advise everyone to book this property for their stay in Santorini. The property is well-located and so beautiful. The views are awesome.

What could I say about this place? We fell in love. Very good location, wonderful view. He gave us room number 6, I must say that I highly recommend it. Spacious, clean and very well maintained (the whole placw is really very clean, they have a lady who leaves it impeccable). Regarding the breakfast, maybe it could be improved a little but it wasn't bad either. Katia's attention and dedication is a luxury, she is always ready and she helps you with everything you need. Always with a smile.

United KingdomI cant say anything bad about the property. Better to have a car or atv going to the property you can also take the taxi but it will cost you €20-35. Ketia is very helpful she guided us where to take the bus and offered to book transport from airport. It’s not that far and taking the bus is easy. You can take bus which is easy only for €2 from airport it goes to Fira then take bus from Fira to Oia You can also take the bus across the property, the bus only goes one way. It goes to Fira then from Fira take the bus that goes back to OIA. You can also walk from the property to Oia but it will take you 30-40 mins, it was nice to see the view but it’s too steep going up.
The place is clean with stunning view. I loved it. Katia is accommodating and helpful
