Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

Turkey-
We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was spotless and well isolated from mosquitoes or any other insects. The bathroom was very spacious, and the location was excellent — just a short walk from the sea. Our host, Mike, was incredibly helpful and even surprised us with lovely gifts — thank you so much for that! Despite being affordable, the place felt very elegant and well-maintained. The room had everything we needed: a coffee machine with capsules, tea options, a fridge, a perfectly working air conditioner, Netflix, mosquito nets, repellent sprays, and even creams. It truly had all the little touches that make a stay comfortable. Highly recommended!

PolandThe only thing I can complain about is the very hard pillows. We are used to sleeping on slightly more elastic pillows, not completely soft ones because those are also terrible. However, the ones we have encountered in many places in Greece are more of a decorative type - very hard. There is plenty of space in the closet. It would be great to have a second set of slightly softer pillows available, so guests can choose what suits them best :)
Thank you very much for an absolutely wonderful stay. The house is located in a truly unique spot – slightly hidden and not directly accessible by car, which adds to its charm. You reach it via a narrow path that winds through gardens and trees, ensuring complete peace and quiet. The distance from the main road is enough to keep any noise away, yet the beach and the nearest tavernas are just a few steps away. The very kind host welcomed us with thoughtful gifts and showed us a convenient spot where we could park the car. The apartment is compact but very well equipped, including a fully functional kitchen. As a coffee lover, I really appreciated the choice between a capsule and drip coffee machine – a great touch! The minimalist balcony with a table was perfect for enjoying meals with a view of the Kerkis mountain range. There's also a beautiful garden with lemon trees and additional seating areas. We highly recommend this place! We were truly captivated by the island – its charming hidden spots and, above all, the warm and welcoming attitude of the locals towards tourists. We sincerely hope it retains its authentic character and doesn't become overly commercialized.

We had an amazing experience! Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a larger room, simply because it was available and the host thought it would enhance our stay. The room was spacious and very comfortable, and the host was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and everything exceeded our expectations. After reading the positive reviews beforehand, I can now say I wholeheartedly agree with them all. Highly recommend! A special mention goes to Emanuel restaurant right in front of the hotel, where we had great food and met the incredibly friendly owner. It was the perfect complement to our stay.

GermanyThis is not a review of Votsalakia, but I will say that if you are looking for a peaceful Greek holiday, this is the place. Re the apartments, the host family was genuine and friendly and really could not have been more helpful. The area is peaceful, set among rural gardens, a short barefoot walk from a quiet section of sandy beach in a gap between the inevitable umbrellas. Restaurants, bakeries and cash machines are within easy walking reach. There is no parking right at the apartment but we were able to park close by with no problems. The apartments themselves are newly renovated and well appointed. The bed was firm and comfortable, the shower good. It was very pleasant to enjoy a leisurely breakfast on the balcony, basking in the warm Greek sun among citrus, olives and hibiscus. My only quibble concerns the mosquito netting at the balcony door, which did not seal very well. The owner has all the same gone to a lot of effort to suppress the local mosquitos and is working on improving the screens. One could avoid the problem by closing the glass doors to the balcony at night and relying on the efficient air conditioning, but with the doors open we found we also had no problems so long as we made use of the mosquito coil. We enjoyed Lemon Tree Apartments and would stay there again.

GermanySometimes the internet speed became very slow.
The Lemon Tree Apartments left a deep impression on us. They are perfect for those who appreciate quality and attention to detail. The owner has clearly put a lot of heart into the renovations, and it's felt at every turn. The apartments are fully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The one we stayed in had two balconies, offering a stunning view of the mountains. We spent a lot of time there, enjoying the serene atmosphere. The apartment owner constantly ensures that flying insects do not bother the guests. The location of the Lemon Tree Apartments is simply ideal: close to the sea, two minutes from shops, yet the noise of the road is not heard. The modern style of the apartments gives them a unique character. Moreover, the presence of good air conditioning makes the stay even more comfortable. What particularly stood out is that the Lemon Tree Apartments are surrounded on all sides by a well-maintained green garden, where one can sit in its shade at a table. Every corner of its territory is lovingly adorned with pots of local plants. We were absolutely delighted and eagerly await the opportunity to return to this place. It's the perfect corner of Greece for nature lovers, secluded beaches, and local cuisine.
