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.).

Pretty bungalows, not too many people at once stay on property. Staff and service offered everything you could ask for before you even do it (recommendation for spa, beaches, food etc.) and super helpful with any request made during stay

FinlandOnly thing to mention here is the toilet paper, which was so thin, but that seems to be everywhere in south east asia:), and also little thing to mention is the position of the drying rack, dripping over the table, but that didnt bother too much.
Location is spot on, quiet location straight on the beach close to a gym and a pool bar and a 10 minute scooter ride away from the town where you cand find anything for your needs. Also close to the famous parties on koh phangan. Service is top notch, with employees who are there to ensure guests have the best experience, everything was clean and there was everything you would need during your time in koh phangan, loved the fact that you can do bookings through the hotel and it's chatbot feature. The accomondation offers a chatbot connected to their whatsapp, that you can use to get information about things to see on the island, and about restaurants, etc etc. The hotel also has a web page for guests, with recommendations on pretty much everything from foodmarkets to massage parlors, also a taxi service. And so good to be able to rent a scooter straight from your accomondation. We also got a flat tire on our scooter and the employees were fast to respond and got the situation fixed in less than 30 minutes, with bringin us a spare scooter and fixing the broken tire. Would higly recommend renting a scooter to see the island more. Also while booking our trip back from the islands the employees were super helpful and wanted to help us and ensure we got the best deals and easiest way back to mainland. This is the accomondation to book!

ItalyNot much to do if you decide to stay at the bungalow as no pool is there. However they offer you to go to another place (15 minutes drive) where you can use pool and gym.
Room quite big! Francis was so helpful, very good man! We rented the scooter for 200B a day a 3000B deposit (returned straight away). good location, very close to a great night market.

TurkeyThe bungalows are amazing, very spacious, the balcony and hammock is awesome to relax. The TV is a smart TV so you can watch anything you want. The wifi is great. Staff is wonderful and very helpful. The beach is right there however the tide is very low during the day (May), so early morning swims are possible but not during the day. Sunsets are amazing from the beach. You can also rent a motorbike from them, very convenient. Our ferry transport was late so we took another taxi and they came all the way to the ferry station t refund us! Amazing people, thank you!

SpainI just loved it! Cosy little houses yet with everything you need. Terrace with the hammock is amazing, you just don't wanna move anywhere else. Right next to the beach, not the most amazing one but still with beautiful sunsets. Really good location on the island as a base to explore. Motorbike rental available, very helpful staff, they bring the bike right in front of your door. I would definitely stay there again.

NetherlandsNothing big. We suggested to put some cooking oil, salt and pepper in the kitchen so you don't have to buy everything at the store. They could do some maintenance at the floor of the veranda but that's not a big deal.
We loved the beach house. It's almost unreal that all the space you get is for two people. A huge veranda smack down at the beach, a large kitchen, nice bedroom with bathroom upstairs and a living room with a large television we didn't use because we spent all the time outside.The beach house is just more than we expected and we even thought about it to live here. Restaurants, night market and 7/11 around the corner on walking distance. The host is very nice and they arrange everything you ask for. We loved it and will be back for sure.

United KingdomBed was rock hard. There are also no facilities apart from a communal sitting area, so no place to get any snacks or a drink (although there are cafes and shops very close by). Wasn't so much of an issue but just something to be aware of.
Right on the beach and central location with a Netflix tv for a rainy day. Staff were so helpful with information and booking taxis. Hammock outside was a nice touch.

GermanyI think the staff was too present, you have the feeling that there is constantly someone around fixing something. One day they were installing new water heating system on our house, another day they were exchanging siphon in our bathroom.
Lovely location, amazing sunsets, chirping birds in the morning.

TurkeyWe arrived at 2:30 pm, but the room was not ready, and they requested us to wait for 40 minutes to be able to check in. We were in the beachfront villa and had a very nice deck, but the facility has nothing to offer apart from the rooms. The location is not close to any attractions, but it won't be an issue if you rent a bike. They should consider putting some hangers to the room for the towels.
We booked the beachfront villa, so my comments would be about it, not for the bungalows. This was a fully furnished apartment with a cool design. It is kind of a house you can live for ever. It has a very nice deck to enjoy the sea and the view. The place was very clean. Staff was willing to help. We were there for the full moon party, and the prices were high. This was a great offer considering the ridiculous prices for dorms in Haad Rin.

United KingdomMatresses as stated by others extremely firm/ uncomfortable for both of us despite the topper, with no spring base just a concrete frame making it I assume even harder. As others have stated the beach house is private and this would make a much better communal area especially For everyone staying in the bungalows futher away from the beach ⛱️ especially as there is little communal space or a pool
Location was central to the island meaning everywhere was accessible by motorbike within 30 minutes, beach nice and sunsets great, modern concrete cottages, Francis extremely helpful as we're while team who rally helped with visa extension requirements. Night market a godsend and the Indian resturant up the road is amazing
