Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

This is an amazing apartment just a few minutes walk into the centre of Petalidi in one direction and 10 minutes walk to the beach in the other. The views from the terrace are amazing. It’s incredibly well equipped and Vasilis is and incredibly generous hots with his welcome supplies of bread, wine, milk, coffee, sweets, jams and more. Honestly everything you can think of is there. Also when we had a problem with the TV remote he fixed it immediately.

ItalyBay View House is a great reference for a holiday in Messinia; Petalidi is a small village in a strategic position, about 40 minutes from all sites of interest (Kalamata, Costa Navarino, Methoni, Koroni, etc. etc). A few steps from the central square where there are markets and restaurants, it is at a right distance to enjoy tranquility and privacy. The apartment has numerous advantages: the first is the wonderful terrace that allows a continuous view of the Messina Gulf, which embraces you at any time of the day. Then there are all the comforts of the apartment, super-equipped; plus private parking under the house, in the shade. Last, but absolutely not least, the kindness and hospitality of the owner Vasilis. Absolutely recommended.

The flat is just as beautiful as in the pictures, clean, modern and very well equipped. Located in front of the sea, with a stunning view over the bay and very close to town with all its amenities and lovely restaurants as well as the beach. Vasilis was a welcoming and friendly host and provided us with some great advice on places to visit, beaches to go to and restaurants. Really loved everything about the stay!

United KingdomHow could you not like anything?
Amazing Stay in beautiful Bay View House, directly overlooking the sea. The apartment was spotlessly clean, the facilities and furnishings excellent quality. The host Vasilis was extremely accommodating, helping us with everything including things to do and see and restaurants to visit - which were all perfect. Always at hand if you had a question. You cant beat the view from the balcony/terrace. This is what gives this house it's edge ... something quite special. So many extras were given to us inside the accommodation such as wine / fruit / jams / fridge contents etc ... special touches that add to a great holiday. Location is also perfect, Petalidis is a small, family, quiet location which is the ideal location for rest and relaxation. Would certainly re-visit!

The location was fantastic and the welcome received was amazing. We really enjoyed the view from the balcony which showed the calmness and serenity of Petalidi. We appreciated the supply of essential food to get our holiday off to a great start. We will definitely be back another time.

Good place to stay and do some road trips to the nearby waterfalls or lovely small towns in the area. Can recommend the castle in Methoni and dinner at Kastraki-Meteroro restaurant near Kalamata.

AustriaThe apartment is nicely furnished and equipped to a high standard - we found everything we could think of. From the terrace there is a wonderful view of the sea and a small fishing port. From the apartment we were close to everything (5 min walking) - to the square with a supermarket, bakery, cafes and taverns, to the sandy beach or the beach with sunbeds and a bar. The owner Vasilis is a very nice, helpful and generous person. We had a wonderful vacation in Petalidi.

SlovakiaOne small thing. Ther isn't big trafic, but the road runs very close to the house, so you can't keep opend vindows in bedrooms as it's disturbing. Mabye when they open the road around Petalidi which was now closed, there will be even less trafic. But you can still have fresh air from terrace or to use aircondition.
The best equipped apartment we ever booked - all kitchen things, games, xbox, lot of food for start, even basic medicaments! Best location in the village and best view from terrace. Lot of local restaurants nearbei, fishmarket every morning. Safety camera system around the house (although Petalidi looks safe and friendly). And Vasilis is great host and ready to help with anything.

MoldovaHaving to leave 🙂
This was honestly the best accommodation I have ever had. It was so well arranged that after coming back home, we have actually made some adjustments and renovations inspired by our experience! The host is super welcoming. When we mentioned that we're traveling with a child, we got not only a pack'n'play and bedding, but also a musical chair and a small cot, which were super handy. The view is awesome, the terrace we've practically lived in, going for a seaside walk was simply going down the stairs, also you can see a part of central square from the balcony, so you never miss the market day or another big event. Petalidi is a great small town to stay in, has a couple of supermarkets, a morning fish market, an indoor fruit and vegetables market, and also we got to experience the big local market on Thursday morning - delicious fruits, ripe veggies, olive oil, dried figs, chestnuts and other delicious stuff right from the farmers. Overall, I can't recommend enough this accommodation - we've made our fondest memories here.
