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.).

NorwayThe only minus with the location is that there is no swimming possibilities due to low tide. So you need a motor to go elsewhere on the island to swim in the ocean.
Stunningly beautiful location, true tropical paradise, very friendly and professional staff, great food and drinks. Very relaxed atmosphere if you want to "take it slow". You can still go and party at the half/full moon festival or other happenings in the jungle if you get bored. Bungalows are cozy, clean, charming and comfortable and have everything you need.

IrelandThe bungalows didn’t feel perfectly sealed off from the outside, which means that bugs and creatures could get inside. Bed wasn’t particularly comfy, but it was fine.
The resort is situated in a brilliant location, right on the beach front and close to lots of restaurants and right beside a mini mart. The resort bar was lovely with nice seats, hammocks, day beds and a pool table. Very helpful and friendly staff too. Aircon and fan were both very good.

CanadaThe beach is too shallow to actually swim in unless you walk out 1km or so, wish we knew that! I also need to mention that while the management and service staff were amazing, the cleaning staff were very much not… Cleaning the room consisted of them folding 1 of the 2 blankets in the room and refilling our water. I had dirty towels on the floor that were just picked up and rehung…. Ewww. I complained to the front desk, and the cleaning staff came back and replaced one towel and left the other dirty one on the ground, didn’t empty the garbage or anything even after that! Very gross. And side note next time we will book a hotel on the west side of the island for a better sunset.
The private bungalows were cute, absolutely stunning to be beachfront when you wake up. The English breakfast was amazing, and we just loved a lot of the food there. The carbonara, the fruit… and that is a local cat that would hang out with us, very sweet boy.

United KingdomOur aircon leaked every night we were there onto my husbands legs. We were unlucky and had bad rain one night and woke up to our room being flooded as the water came under our front door. Luckily we caught it before it got to our luggage but had to use the towels to dry the floor and mop up the water.
Great location, walking distance to lots of things. Lovely room right on the beach which was so clean and looked after well. Staff were lovely and food was really nice.

United KingdomThe Air conditioning in our room only seemed to do really cold and the shower head could do with changing as it was pretty poor.
The location is excellent, right on the beach with a great sunset view! The staff are super polite and extremely attentive and were probably the highlight of the stay. Rooms were decent and the food was good, could organise pretty much anything we wanted through reception such as scooters and taxis.

IndiaThe housekeeping could do an upgrade. We stayed for 3N/4D in the sea view bunglows and the sheets were not changed even once during our stay. The room was not sweeped properly, the packets and left overs from last night was still lying on the floor after the daily housekeeping was done. The bathroom had a pungent smell when the lights were switched on because the switch for lights and exhaust were same, and as soon as the exhaust was on, it pulled in a very weired and pungent smell. The could also install intercoms within the room for any room service etc.
The View is to DIE FOR!!! Not to mention the amazing sunset you get to see sipping cocktails from the cabana right outside your villa! This resort is all about the white sandy beach PRIVATE becah exclusively for it guests only! The upkeep of the beach is quite good, the staff cleans the private becah area of the resort multiple times in a day. The front office staff is polite, I tried a few dishes and breakfast days at property, the food is nice too! They have 2 cabanas and 4-5 hammocks across the resort's common area, all of which has a great view for sunset!❤️ Food is priced decently, but sometimes you can skip and enjoy the local cafes in the vicinity. The location is good is terms of access, 15mins away from Pier and 25mins away from haad rin party beach (we rented the scooty/motor bike via hotel because it's safe).

CanadaThe reason we gave it a 9 are the following: - The beach is very rocky and has many broken sea shells. This makes it very difficult and dangerous to go in unless you have watersheds or proper sandles. Even with these, you do run the risk of cuts. - The room was great for what we needed. It did have two flaws. The bathroom was small and had the shower in it with no separation, and everything got soaked. Make sure to remove toilet paper before showering. - The bathroom has no insulation and is not completely sealed to the outdoor elements. With this being said, make sure you are OK with the occasional gecko visiting your bathroom and sometimes even your room. Think of it as glamping. Being beachfront, there is a risk of ants if you leave any food open in your room. The staff do a great job of advising you of this. There is an option of a deluxe bungalow, which we understand is a bit more closed off, but we didn't take a look at it. Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed our time while we visited. Thank you to the team for a great stay.
This resort has great location, amazing food, and gorgeous views. We stayed in a wooden bungalow with beach access. The views were incredible and just steps away from the beach. The food and service exceeded our expectations. Everything we ordered was made fresh and tasted delicious. I would highly recommend the pad thai 👌. Nice pool and beachfront bar to enjoy the sunsets. Located near 7/11 and various restaurants and massage locations. Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed our time while we visited. Thank you to the team for a great stay.

United KingdomFar from full moon party and any other major places so need to spend a lot of money on taxis or rent a scooter. There was no AC in our room and it was horrible it got so warm. I asked staff for room upgrade or an extra tan but they ran out of fans and villas. We only had a small fan which blew hot air back at us and it got very hot we had to sit outside and cool down in 30 degrees heat. f
The bar and restaurant at the hotel were great as well as the staff working at it. The location was good if you have a scooter or get a taxi as around 15 minute drive to the full moon party. The rooms were clean.
