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 reviewProperty was perfect no matter the weather with shade for rain or sun The layout of the villa was wonderfully spacious and comfortable Because it was of the road made it quite for road noise Even in the big winds no windows were rattling. Good ventilation through screened louvred windows. Didn’t need aircon on and supplied doona for cooler nights was cozy
Not always sure when housekeeping were coming! We were told every second day but unsure of the times and to know to expect at an approximate time would have been nice. I know we’re on island time. But do we get up and go or snooze in? We didn’t realise Sunday housekeeping didn’t come, it was on our second day and public holiday Monday so then we didn’t expect service so this would have been nice to know!

Verified reviewThe apartment is very nice and had everything we needed. We really liked the island style. It's a little dated but that applies to many of the resorts as well. Was super clean and the bed was divine. Views are amazing although unfortunately it was extremely windy for our stay so we were unable to really enjoy the deck or beach. It's also very private as the beach is kind of cut off at one end so discourages a lot of people walking past.
The check-in experience and responsiveness of the hosts left a lot to be desired I'm afraid. I told him I didn't have roaming on the island so was relying on WiFi and the Booking.com messages. I asked for both early check-in and late check-out and got no response to either question. I didn't get a message about when the apartment was going to be ready for us until minutes before the official check-in time despite sending a couple of messages asking - his answer was that he doesn't get alerts on Booking.com. I don't think that's good enough personally. It was easy to get in once I did hear. My messages about a transfer and late checkout were not answered either so I had to arrange it all myself and have a pick-up at 10am. To be fair I didn't send those messages until the evening before check-out but I received no response at all, and I did say not to bother with the transfer as I didn't receive a prompt reply and so couldn't risk waiting. But I didn't then receive any reply at all. The maintenance/cleaner guy was next door the morning of check-out and said "oh you can stay until midday if you like". I'd already had to book a 10am transfer as I'd not had an answer to my request, so that was nice but too late.
Communicating thru BDCom system is not always reliable best used for bookings but not immediate answers as I advised I don't get message prompts. Not sure why u didn't pick up the phone in the Villa no charge and phone numbers readily displayed for any matters. Management.

Verified reviewAbsolutely gorgeous and private villa. Great location. Great view.
The only issue in our stay was the two frying pans. They both have exceeded their life use. Everything sticks. Time to replace. That's it

Verified reviewWell appointed villa with short walks to restaurants and bars but quiet location. Lagoon quite shallow on this beach section with a lot of coral so snorkeling sometimes trickier but worthwhile. Readily accessible car hire. Airport transfers included and with a late evening flight back, the availability of a late checkout was very welcome.

Verified reviewThe location of the Villa on the beach in Muri was fantastic! Having our own private pool was excellent and made the accommodation feel even more luxurious and was nice to have there to jump in when it was hot and you didn't need/want to go anywhere else. Also having a car available at the location was great and so easy. The villa was well equipped with everything we needed and was very comfortable, has everything we needed, great layout, great location and comfy beds! There really wasn't anything else we needed, everything was there. I LOVED the bathroom and the whole villa was spacious and so comfortable. Having wifi was an added bonus! Great communication with the property, lovely staff who were friendly and helpful and just an overall wonderful experience!
Thanks Charmaine yr comments appreciated. Hope to see you holiday with us again sometime. Cheers Des

Verified reviewLoved the view especially from the bed waking up., loved the Villa itself and the decor, loved the outdoor deck and self facilities. Loved how you can go swimming right outside, hose to wash off sand. Good shower pressure.
Unfortunately TV did not work that great, had a line through top of the screen so could not even watch movies and in the notes once got there said reception poor which was a shame. Pool bottom felt and looked dirty, quite a few big cockroaches inside, ran out of toilet paper on the 4th day as none replaced and milk was already open on day of arrival..
Apologies for the situation and concerns u expressed. The pool floor is a different colour than the walls which gives the view it is not clean. The housekeeping concerns are not up to our usual standard so thanks for bringing these to my attention.
