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...).

United KingdomI can't think of anything as we had such a nice time. Hopefully we will return
We throughly enjoyed our ten night stay. We were looking to have a nice ,quiet holiday just relaxing and reading some books and that's exactly what we did. Maria and her son Ilias were very nice and helpful and other members of staff i.e the cleaning lady and the poolman were equally nice. In all a lovely holiday

CanadaThe parking can be a bit challenging, as the path to get to the highest villa is very inclined. Can be hazardous if you have trouble driving in reverse.
Very nice private and clean villa with a fabulous view of the city at night. We had the farthest villa, surrounded by olive trees and no immediate neighbours on top of us. Well equipped and very comfortable for a family of 5 or 6. Ilias who takes care of the property was very welcoming ,helpful and accommodating. He brought us beach umbrellas and clothespins for our laundry when we asked him. 10 minutes by car from center of town. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property!

DenmarkHard walk to the appartment. 800 meters to the beach/small harbor. This was primarily ideal for snorkeling - not suited for small children. The surrounding area is all 5 star hotels which occupy all of the costal line giving no access to for ordinary people.

Costa RicaI loved everything about this property - the location and the view, the warm private swimming pool and the comfortable bed. The jacuzzi bath in the very ample bathroom was also fabulous after a trip to the beach. Everyone I met was friendly and chatty and nothing was a problem. Really highly recommended and excellent value for money.

United KingdomOnly tiny thing was that the water drained a little slowly from the bath but that’s the only tiny thing I could comment on as being a negative.
The villa was perfect for what we needed, it’s very peaceful and has all the facilities we needed. Maria and her family are helpful and made our stay amazing. We had a car to make it easy to get around - would recommend this.

United StatesThe hot tub was not available (no plug to fill the tub...we did not inquire about it as it was not of major concern for us).
The location would, in our opinion, require a car/taxi to enjoy the area. We rented a car so were able to explore the area easily. The apartment was comfortable and having a private pool allowed us to relax and cook a simple meal. We ended a three week stay in Crete and this was the perfect way to top off the vacation.

United Kingdom- Parking was quite difficult, anything bigger than a compact car and you may struggle to get it around the steep corner at the top.
- The villa was very well equipped and had lots of bits and bobs to cook your own meals if you want to eat in. - Good powerful AC in bedrooms and very comfortable beds. - Hot water and shower pressure both extremely good. - Location is nice and peaceful with beautiful views over the bay. - The service team are fantastic, Maria and the housekeeping staff do an exceptional job and are very polite. I was allowed to check in early and in addition when I had a car accident Maria was extremely helpful and booked me a taxi back to Heraklion.

United KingdomThird (downstairs) bedroom was very dark with a small window. The blinds in most rooms did not obscure the early morning sunlight, Lack of aircon in the main living area. Cleaning staff cut through the villa's outside space to gain access to a store / other villas. Parking not ideal (very steep, no flat area)
The location / views were excellent. Staff were very friendly. The villa was very clean with lots of towels provided. The pool was very clean and there were lots of sunbeds available. The sun terrace on the room was useful additional space. The welcome gifts of homemade marmalade, cake and wine were very much appreciated.

The best place to calm & enjoy the wonderful view of Elounda. All the suites have a private pool big enough for 4 people, sunbeds & tables. Maria, the hotel owner, is very kind & always available to help you with any request! If you need coffee/snack or even lunch local stores offer a delivery service! Every morning I ordered coffee & breakfast in my room within 15mins! (Ask Maria for details)
