Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score 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’re currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil, and North Carolina. For properties in these areas, 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 like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The owners and staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Nancy cooked us the most amazing food, she caters very well for vegans, and it was also very good value for money. Everything was freshly cooked to order. Cozy Garden is located a short distance from the beach and Ao Nang night market, and they will take you with the tuk-tuk for less than the usual price of the public ones. We also did a couple of trips with Pong to a temple and kayaking, which were both cheaper than going in a large tourist group and nicer because we were on our own. The resort is set back off the road, in a beautiful garden full of nature, in a working neighbourhood away from the tourist hustle and bustle. We could not have enjoyed our stay there more, and we will most definitely return!

Cozy Garden is a unique location. There are 5 individual rooms, plus a swimming pool. The star attraction of this 'hotel' is the staff. The resort is operated by a lovely family, being Nancy, Pong, Bom and Nam. Their attention to detail is superb and they treat you like one of the family. Nancy is a fantastic chef and we found ourselves eating there most nights, as food at other locations didn't match her quality. Every time Nancy cooked for us, it felt like she was your own personal chef. For access to the town they operate a Tuk Tuk, which takes you into town and will also come and pick you up. We loved the stay so much, we are going to book again for next year (2025).

United States of America1) TV didn’t work. They didn’t really explain why but it didn’t seem like it would be resolved soon 2) The pool needs to be skimmed late afternoon, full of debris for the first two days we were there 3) we knew how far the night market was when booking, and we walked to it during the day but coming home at night there were no street lights for 1/2 the walk so bring flashlights or use your phone. The owner should consider providing rides a few times a day and night.
The rooms are spacious bungalows (wooden). Older, not fancy. Big porch to sit and a hammock. The people (family) are very friendly and will assist you. We booked two kayak trips through them. We ordered Thai food for lunch and it was delicious. The husband will give you a Tuktuk ride to the water for 100B. But coming home will cost double from the regular Tuktuks. They helped to arrange Airport transportation ($150B pp). The grounds are quiet with lots of greenery. 7-11 just down the street.

Lovely staff and absolutely perfect food served in the little restaurant. We tried both breakfasts and late lunches/dinners (everything was delicious at the very reasonable prices). We used hotel tuk tuk transfers to and from the town center - at the special price for the hotel guests (half price to the standard fees). Also they arranged our private long tail boat tour and ferry tickets at the very good price. Would love to come back as Nancy, her husband and all the staff made our stay special and cozy :-)

United States of AmericaIt was just excellent!
The staff is just truly exceptional. They’re so kind, friendly, and helpful giving us great recommendations, serving excellent food and providing great service for our needs. My partner got a little sick on the trip and they were nice enough to deliver food to the room so he could stay rested indoors. They couldn’t have been more accommodating, honestly. They supplied us with additional water, toilet paper, towels, pillows - just really very great service. You can tell they care about the property as I see them cleaning the pool often and having folks come trim and manage the garden/plants. They have a good sized menu with mix of western, European and Thai food. Thai menu isn’t too big but the things they had they excelled in. Dishes were better than some of the “highly rated” restaurants we visited closer to the touristy area. Bc my partner was sick it was SO convenient that their restaurant was open all day from breakfast to dinner. Loved the space between guests and having our own unit so enjoy some privacy on our own balcony. Nice to have a relaxing garden property to stay on away from the loud hustle and bustle near the Ao Nang beach strip Location is a little further than other accommodations - 5-8 min scooter from the main area but it’s fine if you know what you’re getting into. That area closer to the beach is obnoxiously loud and crowded so this trade off was much preferred. They also rent scooters so it’s a very one-stop-shop with all your amentities available at your fingertips. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Krabi

United KingdomThis was a lovely place run by a wonderful husband and wife team. They made us feel very welcome, were very helpful and went out of their way to make our stay easier and better. It's close to a market (open on wednesdays) and a 7/11 and ATM. It's about a 15 minute walk to the beach and the resort is set back from the main road which is nice. We only stayed one night so it's hard to say much more but I'd happily stay here again.

They very kindly offered us multiple rides & wrote our dietary requirements in Thai. We loved the location, its very peaceful yet close to all the shops and local restaurants. All the bungalows are surrounded by plants and bushes so its very private. Breakfast very delicious so was dinner. highly recommended. The only thing we are sorry about is that we couldn't extend our stay here due to our next prepaid hotel. We will be back & thank you for a wonderful start to our honeymoon x

AustraliaWe liked everything. My only suggestion would be for some lounge chairs by the pool
The owners of cozy garden are the most lovely genuine people. Nancy and Pong will do anything to help you. It’s a family run business that makes you feel so welcome. Nancy’s cooking is amazing! We loved all her food, especially the curries. The family Bungalow was very spacious. I read somewhere that there can be street noise . We had the bungalow closest to the road and we were not bothered by any noise. The local beach is walking distance. Pong will take and pick you up for the fee of 100 baht. This was the end of our stay and enjoyed the time to unwind. We had a late flight and Nancy was super accommodating buy letting us shower in a free bungalow in the afternoon. Thank you Nancy, Pong and all the other family members who were so warm and kind

We spent some wonderful days over Christmas at Cozy Garden. Nancy and Pong are the kindest and most helpful hosts you can imagine. They made us feel so welcomed and were always very helpful. The place is situated a bit outside of the main tourist attractions, but only 10 min. away from harbor and beaches by scooter or taxi. There are nice restaurants with great food and good prices within walking distance, but we strongly recommend eating at Cozy Garden's restaurant. Nancy is a very good cook also. We loved to sit on the huge front porch of our house and enjoy the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Thanks to the nice and clean little pool, Cozy Garden was a good fit for our little son as well. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Cozy Garden to everyone who loves to stay a bit away from the beaten path.
