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.).

GermanyLaganas is too loud for my taste. Even though the hotel is not a party hotel, you can hear until late night the loud music from other places. So be aware before you book. The glass door in the bathrom was also something I would change to give the guests more privacy and comfort.
Incredible nice and kind employees. We felt so welcome, thanks for everything. Transfer in a luxus car for free, great food. Amazing pool and really close to the beach. Beds very good, great Air Conditioning.

RomaniaThe fact that the hotel is right on the beach, but is a public beach, full of garbage!! It is not possible not to clean it. Your customers stay there, looking at plastic bootless and cigarettes, you should definitely clean it ( as your left and right neighbors do it!!). There are family with kids that can not play in the sand, because of this, it is a pity.
The location is really nice and food is good.

Our stay at the Gardelli Resort was great. Konstantinos Keisidis was very accommodating. He makes great drinks and gave us lots of tips for our stay. He picked us up from the airport and brought us back to the airport on time. He is a very good host and we felt very comfortable with him and the other staff.

GermanyAs muslims, it was a bit hard to navigate the buffet. There was a lot of ham involved in the different dishes and the labels were not very helpful.
For what we paid, we‘re definitely satisfied with our stay. Every member of the staff that we dealt with was super friendly and helpful. The pools and surrounding sunbeds were clean and tidy and great for relaxing. The location is perfect, only a few steps away from the beach. Even though this is not advertised as a family hotel, everyone was so baby friendly and we felt very welcome as a young family.

KenyaWe made a spontaneous, last-minute booking at Gardelli Resort and what a stroke of luck that was! Despite the pouring rain, the warm welcome from the manager miss Zanet, receptionist Emilia and mr Keisidis brightened our spirits. Our cosy room with a beautiful view felt like the perfect retreat from the dreary weather. The delightful dining experience and exceptional hospitality not to forget the barman mr Adonis and his amazing cocktails turned our brief stay into a memorable escape. The hotel was truly our silver lining on a rainy day!

Location. On the beach. Decor was great throughout the hotel. Receptionist lady and gentleman were amazing. Great service of being picked up and dropped off to the airport in a Tulsa. Spot on with timings. They do give beach towels everyday. Highly would recommend the hotel.

United KingdomI didn’t like the fixed beds they were soaking every morning and a bit dampy smelly, and not enough of them. The food was quite cold, but I guess that’s all inclusive. Had to keep taking clean towels off the trolley as they weren’t given. The staff were all very lovely especially the night staff who were very smiley friendly and professional, the fair head girl is a credit in the evening. There were one or two on in the day shift that could have benefited from some hospitality training, the red head and the barman I found could be quite rude on occasions to the point we didn’t want to go up for half glass drinks. The waitress on in the day with the white fila trainers is also a credit, she was lovely. The biggest disappointment after paying the same price to stay at this hotel as we did in Dubai, was no courtesy room, expecting us to shower outside, that’s not good. People need privacy to shower and a good wash, women have monthly’s etc. a courtesy room should be available for guests. I’ve never been anywhere where they didn’t supply one, after complaining we were given one. I’ve given a 7 simply because of the transfer to and from the airport and because the hotel is pretty, but it didn’t match the price we paid for the hotel, especially the all inclusive drinks.

SwitzerlandUnfortunately, there were some aspects that made my stay less enjoyable. The cleanliness of the hotel left much to be desired, and the air conditioning was not strong enough to cool the room adequately on hot days. Despite the fact that the beach belongs to the hotel, there was a charge for its use, which was disappointing. Additionally, fresh juices had to be paid for separately, and water was only available from the tap.
The GARDELLI Resort in Zakynthos may have some shortcomings that aren’t mentioned on booking sites, but these are rendered almost insignificant by the extraordinary dedication of the staff. Three individuals, in particular, made my stay an unforgettable experience: Ms. Zanet, Mr. Stelios, and Mr. Konstantinos. Ms. Zanet is the heart of the resort. With her professionalism and warm demeanor, she ensures that you feel comfortable and respected from the moment you arrive. She cares for guests with the attentiveness of a loving mother and goes above and beyond to provide the best possible stay. Mr. Stelios is a master at making the impossible possible. Whether it’s a restaurant reservation or organizing a trip, Stelios always finds a way. He is available around the clock for guests, never takes no for an answer, and always gives his best to fulfill every request. His commitment and dedication are remarkable and play a significant role in making you feel at home at the GARDELLI Resort. Another highlight of my stay was Mr. Konstantinos and his exceptional drinks. His passion for mixing beverages is evident in every cocktail he prepares. The quality of his creations surpasses that of upscale bars, and it’s easy to understand why these drinks are not included in the all-inclusive package. They are worth every cent, and Konstantinos’ cheerful nature makes enjoying his cocktails a special experience. Thanks to these three wonderful people, my stay at the GARDELLI Resort was more than just a holiday. They made me feel not just like a guest but like part of a big family. I am deeply grateful to them and hope their exceptional efforts are duly recognized.

United KingdomThe inclusive drinks were disappointing. One wine and beer choice which were not great, coffee just about ok, cocktails not great either, so tended to stick to fizzy water and then go elsewhere for other drinks.
The food was really good, loads of healthy choices at all meals and always plenty available, plus good snacks in between. The location is perfect, just off main noisy street so didn't hear any loud music or people at night with the windows shut for the air con anyway. Good beach bars nearby. Easy to reach shops and activities.

IrelandWe stayed in a 4 bed family room but we are given single room key even if we requested a second one. Reception said this was not possible. Hotel has some kind of water problem and water served is salty for hot drinks. Teas coffees taste salty. They served plain drinking water from bottles after complaints but tea and coffees are made by machine and taste salty. This is a 4 star all inclusive hotel so come with right expectation. Food quality is reasonable. But try local places around or in the city also. Some staff is very helpful and smiley but some look very tired and lack energy to serve. Also room cleaning service come around 5 or 6pm due to staff shortage. Not ideal when you are in shower after sea.
Nice hotel, comfortable room, very helpful staff, very good location.

Romania1.The aircon didn't work because it was too hot apparently !!! BIG ISSUE that kind of ruined the whole vibe from the beginning 🥵🥵🥵 We received a mobile unit and 2 fans that made things bearable but not comfortable enough. 2. Also I realized that to solve something on Booking.com is very difficult and you risk to be left on the street, because you have to cancel first and then rebook something else 😡😡😡 3. No decent coffee even if you wanted to pay extra.
The location is great, directly by the sea and away from the Laganas clubs madness. Everything is close by - you cross the road to the restaurant, you walk to minutes to the sea (which is crystal clear and not deep, all sandy, good for relaxing, playing, swimming and excellent for kids too). There are 2 pools and 2 bars with lounges all around. It all looks new and modern, the staff is young and friendly and the food very good and varied though a bit heavy for a hot summer ! Elegant airport shuttle was included
