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 reviewThe villa was in a good location and very well maintained. Hosts were friendly and helpful and we had a very enjoyable time on the island
The only inconvenience was that the third bedroom downstairs did not have a bathroom or at least a toilet. Having to go upstairs to use the hathroom especially at night was an inconvenience. We used the laundry downstairs to brush our teeth but a toilet downstairs would have been good.

Kia Orana Terry Thank you very much for taking the time to review your recent stay with us! Agree, while the peaceful location is one of the many wonderful things about Sea Change, if guests are planning on eating out, particularly in the evenings, a car is definitely recommended.

Shame the 3rd bedroom didn't have air conditioning. The fan from the 3rd bedroom was noisy in the upstairs bedroom.

Picture showed our room We booked the pool Was to the side of the villa so a nice view of the lagoon was to be seen but that was not the case the pool was to the rear of the property so not like the picture above
Kia Orana Suzanne We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Sea Change Villas! Yes, some of the beachfront Villas have the pool located at the side of the villa and others at the rear. Some guests prefer a more private, sheltered pool and others like to be able to see the lagoon from the pool.

Verified reviewThe waterfront villa was stunning. Great access to the beach, modern and very well equipped
It was very windy the whole time we were there and while it was windy all over the island, the southerly aspect of the resort made it more susceptible to the winds.
Kia Orana Michelle Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us! We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your Beachfront Villa and the beach. The wind does blow up on occasion and depending on where it's blowing from we can get some wind however normally we are more protected here on the south side.

Verified reviewThe location was ideal since it was exclusive and comfortable. Everything we needed was easily accessible. We were going for quiet luxury retreat that catered for our necessities and that is what we received.
The only critique I had was that the appliances need regular inspection, since the fridge is on its way out. Also, the air-conditioning unit in one of the bedrooms was initially out of order.
Kia Orana! Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and found Sea Change to be the quiet luxury retreat you were looking for. Thank you for the recommendation regarding the appliances. We do inspect these regularly and service the AC on a continuous basis. Unfortunately, the climate here is very hard on electronics however we do our utmost to ensure everything onstie is in good working condition. We hope to see you again! Kia Manuia!
