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.).

Our stay at Xanadu completely exceeded all expectations. From the moment we got there we relaxed thanks to the fantastic guest relations staff who greeted us. Xanadu is beyond peaceful, it's architecture and setting make you feel like you're the only people there. The service we received from our personal butler, the food we ate, the rest we had was more than we could have ever asked for.

United KingdomThe only thing we did not like about the villa was the shower arrangement. It was not possible to shower without wetting hair, the spray diameter was wide and so did not provide a good central pressure but also, because of this, it caused considerable areas of the floor to get very wet which then became very slippy, especially if wearing the slippers provided.
The villa was beautiful, stylish and comfortable. Our butler Rashid was exceptional, he was extremely courteous and efficient without being too intrusive. He was very good at listening to our requests,remembering and responding.

United KingdomAbsolutely no negatives.
We stayed in Xanadu for five nights / six days and loved it. Prior to arrival we have asked for female butler ( as my wife is hijabi ) and to ensure that all the meals served were halal. From the arrival when we were picked up at the airport we were treated with utmost respect and custom which we usually experience in five star, well established hotels in London. Jesca - our butler and helper was extremely attentive to every request we’ve had and made our stay a literal heaven. Now, few days after returning we constantly mention her and it won’t change for sure. Beach and tides: there’s a special website where you can check the tides timing and simply make your day around it. It’s not the hotel’s fault whatsoever. Beach during the low tides period is cleaned up from what we have noticed and it’s the only one without seaweed. Food: Not sure where to start or end - every meal was simply amazing and not only tasted great but also presented in five star manner. Wife took additional cooking lesson with the Chef which I observed and honestly - experience was entertaining and end result astonishing. Villas: We stayed in Kimwondo which is quite private and have additional pool on the rooftop. Massive space for a couple ( although I don’t see the point of staying in Villa when you have such a beautiful grounds and amazing beach to explore ). Anyway - spacious room and bathrooms, cleaned up with bed made and towels replaced EVERY time we left for the meal were simply “something else”. Additional: we’ve had problems with PCR tests arranged through the government website but hotel management moved earth and sky to sort it out for us! Extremely grateful as our next stop unfortunately required the recent swabs. Security and safety: Team of Masais keeping an eye on the property and beach 24/7 and making sure nobody from the outside sneaks in or tries do the “beach sales”.

CanadaWe were upgraded to the Mawingu villa which was incredible! We had no reason to leave our villa which had a beautiful outdoor lounge looking out on the beach, a plunge pool, waterfall shower, and plenty of space. The architecture/design was very pleasant. We had amazing service from our dedicated staff member Mambo who organized our meals/space and always added a special touch. The food was phenomenal both healthy and delicious; we continuously looked forward to the next meal which was all covered in the package. They provided a list of additional activities and management went out of their way to help us plan a special day that worked for us; we enjoyed snorkeling, massages, and a sunset cruise. Once you consider everything provided in the package, we felt we received good value. Highly recommend!

United KingdomFrom the moment you arrive to the moment you leave absolutely everything at Xanadu is perfect. Leigh’s (hotel manager) warm welcome and continuous 5* care hit every note perfectly, she delivered professional yet extremely personal care. Watson, our “butler” who became more of a friend by the end of the week was another example of how to deliver perfect customer service. He looked after us at all times and we were truly sad to say goodbye at the airport! From incredible meal time service, accompanying us on all excursions as well as popping up with drinks just when we wanted them - we have never known service like it! The rooms are out of this world. The food might as well be Michelin starred. You can eat wherever, whenever you want (beach, villa, main pool). Every member of staff is incredibly friendly. It really doesn’t get any better! Put it this way, we booked for 3 nights and then cancelled our second hotel to stay here for the whole time we were in Zanzibar! Don’t hesitate and book here for as long as you can and if you’re truly lucky, ask for Watson!
