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.).

United KingdomA beautiful property with just 3 bungalows in the well manicured grounds. Peacocks, monkeys and monitor lizards all roam the garden. Everything at Villa DH was so well thought out, down to the timer on the fridge so it went off at night and a small mobile you are given with the owners contact details and local Tuk Tuk drivers already input. Harold and Raf are delightful and are so welcoming. Breakfast is delicious and we also stayed in for dinner 3 times. We actually booked 3 nights and ended up staying 8. We only left then as they were fully booked. A short Tuk Tuk ride from the multiple restaurants & beaches in Tangalle, we genuinely couldn’t imagine a better place to stay.

United KingdomAll good, taking a tuk tuk into Tangalle for an evening meal was no bother at all
What more can be added about these fantastic hosts Raf & Harold.............well not much really, they are gifted when it comes to hosting and making your holiday a memorable experience. Villa Don Hendrick is also their home and they want you to feel that's its your home from home. Attention to detail is everything to Raf and Harold from clean rooms and linen to beautifully presented breakfasts. We started our Sri Lanka holiday with three pre booked nights at Villa Don Hendrick but changed our plans for another three nights towards the end of our stay. Come and stay and chill out in one of their three well equipped bungalows, listen to the birds and peacocks, read a book and laze by the pool. This was our fourth trip to Sri Lanka, will we be back? who knows but if so we will stay again at VDH ! Michael & Johanna UK & IRE

United KingdomNothing
Everything! This is the second time we have stayed at this accommodation. Bungalow is clean and well furnished with so much attention to detail, and situated in beautiful well maintained grounds overlooking the infinity pool. Harold and Raf are both very kind and helpful, nothing is too much trouble - excellent hosts! The location is quiet and tranquil but within easy reach of Tangalle. Breakfast is very good as are the 3 course evening meals which are offered several evenings each week. We thoroughly recommend Don Hendrick as being the best place to stay in this area of Sri Lanka!
