How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGreat location, clean, liked the decor, the daybed on the balcony looking at the ocean was awesome! We really enjoyed our stay.
Main concerns I could not get the bedroom sliding door to lock and small hot water service. In saying that would stay again 🙂

The room itself was noisy next to the pool. Not great view. The bed was so hard and there was not even a spare blanket to sleep on the couch. The bikes need a full service and one was not useable. Bathroom fan is so loud and doesn’t turn off.

Please stop giving false reviews. Maybe next time stay at a 5 star resort as clearly your expectations are very high. Most guest who have stayed in this particular apartment have loved it.

Didn't know it was a unit within Sandcastles complex, would have made it easier to locate had we known. Also didn't know it was an Airbnb, receptionist wasn't very friendly when we asked some questions saying unit has nothing to do with them.

Verified reviewLocation was tops
The vanity basin tap was about to fall off. The Cook Top would not function no matter how many times I followed the instructions. The balcony was untidy
Hi Paul, We are sorry you felt so negatively about our apartment. I would suggest in future if you have any issues at a property would be to contact us the owners... The cook top simply needed the hob switch Turned "ON" at the wall, I tested this straight after you stay (would have been a 30 second phone call) . As for the the basin tap it was a little loose but defiantly not "falling off" again a quick phone call and I would have that fixed within the hour. Balcony was fine. We hope you find more suitable accommodation in the future.

Verified reviewThat there was no additional bedding /spare blankets to add to bed. The weather for first 2 days was bitterly cold and windy. Also there was a note /apology at reception about building works being conducted ...you had to know this was going to be done and we would not have stayed had we known. This was our first holiday/break away for about a year and it was very annoying ☹
Hi, We wish you would have contacted us during the stay and requested extra bedding. We have heating at the apartment and the bed has a winter warmth doona on it so no one has ever complained of being cold before. We are here to help with any requests so please reach out next time. 😊
