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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

CanadaI can't think of a single thing I didn't like about this hotel!
The hospitality and kindness of Sajid, the owner & manager, was simply amazing! There's nothing he won't do to make a guest feel welcome and at home. As for the location, I had read reviews that the property was inconveniently located as it could not be reached all the way by a vehicle. In fact, I found this to be the hotel's strong point! No hustle & bustle or noise of traffic; just the sound of birds, wind in the surrounding trees and waves crashing on the shore in this tiny green enclave of peace. Whats more, Sajid came to pick me up at the taxi drop off point, carried my backpack and walked me to the hotel... what more can anyone ask for, eh?

TurkeyNot luxurious but meet our expectations.
The location is very close to the beautiful beach, far from the city crowd. I was glad that breakfast was not included so we had the chance to eat excellent Indian food at the very good restaurants nearby. Secit is an excellent host, who guided us about the places to visit, arranged taxi, etc.

IndiaWe loved everything about the stay at Sandy beach. Sajith is amazing host, always so caring and so helpful. He even took me for the trip to the nearest ashram with his other friends. The room was so spacious, with kettle, fridge,.. and we even got fresh coconuts when we arrived and the room was full of flowers! Amazing people here as well as around the place. The beach is super close, nice restaurants, simply all you need. Oh and the Yoga room upstairs is just wonderful. Thank you!!! Michaela

FinlandI had wonderful time in this hotel ! The hotel is located in a heart of Kovalam, so close to the beach, Ayurvedic clinic and shopping. The hotel is really clean, cosy and neat, full of plants and flower, like U are in the Paradise... The room is so spacious and equipped with all facilities any person needs. On the top of the hotel there is a big yoga hall with props, I left my yoga mat at home but was so suprised that everything was there. Amazing !!! I am really greatful to Mr. Sajith, the manager of the hotel, for his hospitality and taking care of me. On my arrivals gorgeous jasmin and lotuses flowers in my room and coconut, papaya and mango as a complimentary made my staying unforgattable. Thanks a lot ! I will highly recommend this hotel to all my friends and yoga collegues.
