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.).

JerseyNothing everything was perfect.
Absolutely beautiful. This villa exceeded expectations. The views were outstanding. Swimming pool was perfect to chill around and take a morning dip. The host Jaksa and his wife were very friendly and helpful, nothing was a bother for them. The villa was immaculately clean as was the whole property and gardens. If you want somewhere to recharge your batteries, this is the place to go. We loved every second and will return again. Highly recommend! Also, try Jaksa's wine it's fabulous.

United KingdomThe poolside bathing area is small and without parasols. It was very hot during our stay, and finding shade on a lounger after 2pm is tricky. . Although there is an indoor area to sit in with table and chairs . The walk back from Boll is a trek after a relaxing evening - the extra expense of a taxi might be worth it !
The villa is superb in terms of its panoramic views, high spec of the interior, and undeniable dedication of the host Jaksa. Uniquely, the location offers one to one experience of the mountains wildlife. If you enjoy nature, there's plenty to see - birds ,butterflies and crickets that sing all day and night. We particularly loved the diving swifts! Apartments themselves are beautifully appointed, plenty of fresh towels including swimming ones. The pool is impressive with its incredible views and is exceptionally clean. Boll itself is charming and has good vibes going on. It peserves its class, even though it is busy. The food is good quality BUT nowhere near as delicious as Rank restaurant recommended by the host. It's a most go dining experience and very reasonably priced. Supermarkets are very well stocked and handy only 5 minutes walk. The beaches are impressive-stoney, though and 20 min walk. Waters are dreamy. A great boutique villa !

AustraliaThere’s nothing to complain about with Villa Franka
Villa Franks is a very well built complex and has well groomed grounds. The integration with the vineyard next to the site is also charming and better yet, it’s all authentic with the host having been born a few doors up the road. We loved our time there.

United KingdomWe thought property was totally non smoking but other guests were smoking by the pool. The hill down to the harbour is very steep so be prepared for a very good climb to get home. Great way of exercising off the calories after a delicious meal though 😁
We stayed in penthouse apartment which was stunning. The views of Hvar and Zlatni Rat were awesome.

United StatesIt's an amazing experience! Hospitality of Mr. Jakša is outstanding, the house looks and feels new, comfortable, modern, with classic furniture. The house is located away from crowd and noise, allowing you to hear only the nature, and that is priceless. Highly recommended!

ItalyThe property is exactly how it looks like and much more beautiful. The location is perfect to stay out from the traffic but close enough to walk to the city center. The olive trees, the vineyards, the sea view and the crickets make it magic. We have loved the dark and the stars in the evenings and the pool was amazing. The apartment was equipped with all needed. Thank you!

United KingdomThere is nothing that we did not like :)
The Villa is set in a beautiful location, just a 5-10 minute walk away from the beach and it’s town/restaurants. There is a shop just round the corner from the villa. It is beautiful, well kept, very clean, super comfortable, and perfect if you are after a relaxing place to stay that is close to the town and beaches but also not in the hustle and bustle or where it’s noisy. it’s so peaceful and calm. The swimming pool is a great bonus, it’s a beautiful infinity pool and great for a morning or evening relax before or after your day. Franka and her family are wonderful people and they made sure that we had everything that we needed and helped us with planning our trips. They are really attentive and made sure we had the most wonderful time!

United KingdomWe had a fantastic week staying here in June! Jaksa was so friendly and very helpful. Our apartment was extremely clean and the views from the balcony were stunning! It is a good 15 minute walk uphill from the port but there are plenty of taxis. The location is beautiful and lovely and peaceful away from all the hustle and bustle. We even received a lovely bottle of wine made from the vineyards next to the property!

United KingdomGreat location in regards to being just outside Bol with great access to the beaches, hills, Bol and the shop. However, the climb up the hill was a little difficult in the heat.
Fantastic host, Jaksa was very thoughtful and accommodating. Really appreciated all the support and assistance from Jaksa. The room was super clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The balcony was particularly amazing with great views. The pool was a real added bonus :)

United KingdomAlthough both these things were sorted out quickly our kettle leaked which was quite dangerous when boiling water went everywhere and we didn’t have a corkscrew bottle opener. The bedroom really needed air conditioning as it was very hot. The rooms were a strange mix of old and new and the lounge area wasn’t a comfortable space to sit in. The property and its surroundings were quite noisy - strimmers, loud conversations at night etc and when the room was in use above that was noisy too. But all in all we had everything we needed
The balcony was lovely to sit out on and the bed was huge and very comfortable
