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.).

New ZealandIt was a bit under construction when we were there so the pool area and the green areas weren’t that great!

Saudi ArabiaThere were some renovations going on but they didn't bother us much. Overall the stay was amazing.
The Villa with private pool was excellent and access to the hotel's private beach was a big plus. Staff were amazing and tried everything to make us at feel welcome. Their restaurant by the beach was the highlight with good meal options and a very nice breakfast. Location is also amazing as its a short walk from the fishermen's village. I would definitely choose Bandara anytime I go to Koh Samui.

AustraliaGreat resort, the room was great, plenty of storage, a huge comfortable bed with comfortable linen and extra pillows. large balcony with room to hang up swimmers to dry, outdoor table, and ceiling fan if you want to sit outside 🥵. Amenities were also great. The shower and bathroom area met our needs. Room serviced daily with fresh water and towels, linen if you chose.

United KingdomLoved the room, the AC was good, comfortable beds and the plunge pool room was very private. The staff went out of their way to make our honeymoon trip special with flower petels on the bed and beautiful towel arangments also leaving a cake on my husbands birthday in the room. We loved how the resort led down to the beach, with sun beds available and towels. Swimming in the sea and hotel pools was good fun. The location is perfect, close to fisherman's village full of good restaurants and bars. The hotel restaurant was good and we enjoyed breakfast.

DenmarkUnfortunately they were renovating the pool area by the beach from October 01- November 15 ☹️
We had two rooms - a dbl deluxe and a tropical with a big balcony. Both very nice. The staff were very service minded. The restaurant by the beach was great. The location of the hotel was perfect - a very nice beach and only five minutes walk from the market /Fishermans Village.

IsraelThe mattresses were not that convenient to my end and in generally (I believe) for people with back pains. It felt like the mattress is "crushed down" a bit and even when the stuff moved me to another room with a new mattress (according to them it was switched three weeks back) it wasn't much of a help for me but perhaps people with no back issue can sleep easily. There was a small gap (about 1 cm) below the main door that brings in humidity that causes some areas on the floor to get "sweaty" (out of the AC working). This also causes this weird smell that you can smell only when you enter the room (nothing that really interfere with your entire stay).
The location is great, less than 10 min to the fisherman village area (also 20 min by taxi to the Chaweng area) The hotel as great facilities such as the pool and the restaurant that were super close, maintained, clean and delicious. The staff is absolutely amazing especially Nami the lady who works at the reception who was so friendly and helpful. Wow wow wow ❤️

United KingdomThat we were not advised that there was construction work happening at the hotel until the day of which took away the bar and our favourite pool that overlooked the beach. The hotel needs a few touch ups as worn in places.
The staff were exceptionally friendly. Diamond was our favourite, he was always smiling, would always go above and beyond for us. The staff would always greet you and were very friendly/accommodating. The bar and breakfast area were special, the views and atmosphere were exactly what you want for a relaxing holiday. Location was perfect- literally a 5 min walk to the fisherman's village- so many restaurants, bars and a market 3 times a week. All of the tours were never far from the hotel. A convenience store was a 2 min walk. Pools were great, never too crowded, always space to lounge and we loved happy hour.

Like the facilities in general. Spaceious room which smells amazing upon checking. Too bad I didn't get the name of the essential oils they use. Aircondition. The pool size was nice, great breakfast selection, gym was adequate, and the resort staff. I understand why families would prefer to stay in Bandara.
