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):
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.).

Local, authentic, simple in the best way. Fabulous owners who nothing was too much trouble for.. Loaned us paddle board, fixed a broken shelf we didn’t even have time to tell them about, dropped us to the supermarket, gave us coffees and ice creams as we had to wait for our room. Clean comfy rooms with air con, lovely view to pool and sea. All Amazing. Quieter location which we loved, great nearby bars and restaurants.

GreeceThe WiFi works well only close to the reception.
The room was really nice, well equipped with electric stove, blender, large TV, etc. that can support your necessities during your stay. There was also a common pool available for guests, that is open until late, so you can enjoy a peaceful and relaxing evening. ✨ What I appreciated most was the girl at the reception that gave us detailed explanation and recommendation on where to go and eat in the island. She provided information on the beaches and even sent us a what’s app message with all the necessary links. 💕 Bonus was the “welcome ice cream” and water that they offered us during our stay! ☺️ There is also possibility to order breakfast in the room, but we didn’t try it, as we wanted to head early for the center of the island and the beach.

United KingdomThe wi-fi signal was a bit erratic, but only a minor issue.
The staff, especially Deppie, were exceptionally helpful, recommending local restaurants, arranging transport, etc. The pool was very clean and there was good space to sit nearby. The beach was close, with fun waves and the beach restaurant was very nice. We also walked up to the Temple of Aphaia, 50-minute hike from the apartment, and well worth the effort.

AustraliaAbsolutely loved our stay at Blue Dolphin. It is a family-run small hotel with super friendly owners - they couldn't have been more helpful and friendly . Great pool, pick up from the ferry, got get tips on local restaurants (all of which were great) and close to the beach. We hope to come back one day.

United KingdomNothing. It’s traditional and Vagia is a quieter area of Aegina so either stay a few days or get a car to explore the island and stay a little longer.
We had such a wonderful relaxing time. The whole family are lovely. We were treated with care and little things like sending us links to the local restaurants and taverns and ice cream for the kids made our stay even more special.l- even offering their car for a short journey to the supermarket! The views are beautiful and definitely use the hotels transport offer if it is available it was comfortable and good value. Would definitely return. Quiet time 3-5pm but the family clean the pool and we loved a late swim. Thank you.

HungaryCan't tell, as there were no issues. The only thing that could be improved is the breakfast: a bit of veggies and stronger coffee would make it perfect, but it's not a big deal.
The best of the place, is the lovely family: father and mother and four daughters, who run the place in a very nice and friendly manner. They solve everything you want, always with a smile.

United StatesThe location has breathtaking views and the rooms are all well appointed. The staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. They thoughtfully provided cold waters when we headed out for a day trip. The pool had a big shallow end which was perfect for our kids. The breakfast was delicious and included fresh fruit and coffee. I would definitely stay here again!

JordanThe area is a bit isolated and hotel service ends early, so if you're hungry/thirsty after 9pm, you have to go to a local taverna. Late delivery is also only available from a couple tavernas only. Make sure to have stocked up on snacks!
Staff was super nice and willing to help and answer all our questions. They gave us complimentary drinks and ice-cream when we arrived. They also let us stay beyond checkout hours for our convenience. The breakfast they have is also very good!

United KingdomIt’s obviously not the properties fault but it is worth noting there is not a shop in walking distance. You need a car to get to a shop and / or to get into town. Not a problem, you can get cabs but it’s worth knowing.
Our stay at Blue Dolphin was brilliant. The pool is lovely and we could always get a couple of sun beds. The staff are so friendly and helpful, they literally could not do more for us and it was lovely. Very good breakfast. Very close to the beach and an excellent beach bar.

MaltaI couldn't recommend this property enough, if there were more stars I would surely give them. The hosts are amazing. As soon as we arrived at Souvala port we were stranded there as the taxi booked didn't show up. Without any hesitation they came to pick up themselves. It was an amazing stay. Bus stop nearby, beaches near too. The place is really lovely, it has the quiet policy for 2pm-4pm so it's ideal for families with young kids. Always spotless and if ever going back to Aegina I know where I will book again.
