How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewAbsolutely fantastic place – easily one of the highest standards you’ll find on Sulawesi. Yes, the price is on the higher end, but you get what you pay for: everything works seamlessly, the service is outstanding, and the staff are genuinely exceptional. They’re also great at arranging local boatmen for custom-made snorkeling trips and excursions to nearby islands – all at very reasonable prices. The beach is well-maintained and largely free of plastic, great for swimming and spotting the occasional fish. For the more impressive snorkeling, you’ll need to go a bit farther out – the easiest way is to hire a local boat that picks you up directly from the shore. We stayed in the suite, which is enormous and comes with two incredible private terraces. Nice views. The only thing missing? A shared swimming pool would make it perfect. Only two rooms have a private pool - not the suite.
The restaurant prices are actually quite reasonable. But I was a bit annoyed to discover that they add: VAT + service charge + a 2% VISA fee. My suggestion to Akasha: just include it all in the menu prices, since I have to pay it anyway. And the “service fee”… seriously? Come on. (We were not even told when check in).
Thank you for your honest review, Jonas! We are delighted that you and your family enjoyed your stay at Akasha and truly hope to welcome you back again if you ever head this way! We will happily forward this review to our team. With regards to your comments about our restaurant charges - under the rules of Bulukumba area, by law we are required to charge customers 10% area tax (this is not VAT). Although we do understand your view on this, the local government pushes us to separate menu prices from their tax charges. As for the 5% service charge, the full amount is divided equally amongst the whole team at the end of each month. Hope the above clarifies everything and thank you again for your kind words!

Verified reviewThe room was large, elegant and full of light. The kitchen and dining area was spacious and a joy in which to eat a delicious breakfast, the best in Bira (especially the homemade bread buns). And balcony and refreshing pool have one of the best views we’ve seen, golden sand and azure sea. The staff were exceptional: attentive, kind and funny. Everyone must stay here.
That we can’t live there permanently.
