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.).

GermanyReally enjoyed my stay at this beautiful place, which is pretty new. I extended my stay for another two nights which was no problem at all. It‘s quiet and a little bit to walk into the center - but I loved my daily walks there. There‘s also a little stand just on the opposite side of the road where you can get egg hoppers etc. The room was lovely and Raveen is a lovely guy that really takes care of everything. :)

GermanyI had an amazing stay at Riparian Ahangama. Raveen and me were already in contact before I arrived and he even picked me up from the train station. The room was spacious and clean and had everything you need, including a small kitchen area and a desk. The WiFi was perfect. I was able to work without any problems. The absolut highlight are Raveen and his family who are super friendly and helped me out with any question I had. Would definitely recommend to everyone and will come back in the future.

SingaporeYou can hear traffic from the road in the day, but it’s not a problem at night as it gets really quiet.
Excellent value. Raveen and family are the best hosts ever! Always responsive and making sure you are comfortable. Great location - Kabalana beach is just 10 min walk/ 2 min by scooter. Room is spacious, clean and bright. You also get a small kitchen in the room. Definitely recommend staying here!

AustraliaRaveen was a fantastic host from the initial contact right through my 8 night stay. He was super flexible, friendly and accommodating. I had to change rooms to extend my stay and this was not a problem for him and both rooms were perfect for me. Only 10 min walk to the beach and a good location for restaurants etc. I'll be back.

Very new and clean apartment on the quiet side of Ahangama away from the busy main road. The owner is super friendly and helpful, also all the staffs there. The apartment is on the second floor with balcony, private bathroom a small kitchen with basic kitchenettes and even a blender!! Everything works well, even without an aircon the fan is enough to keep the room cold and breezy. Will definitely come back and stay here.
