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...).

PolandThe resort is very clean and comfortable. We had an amazing Kerala style breakfast and dinners, it was delicious. The location is perfect, along the canal, peaceful and close to the train station. Sivan, the manager, was very kind, helped us organize a boat tour, and made our stay easy. They also have kayaks and can provide massages if you're interested. Thank you to all the kind staff who took care of us! Highly recommend this place.

AustraliaOnly things I would have liked was a shower screen or curtain, despite rooms being modern - bathroom has Indian style open shower. Also tea/coffee making facilities would be a nice touch as breakfast is served from 0830.
Sivan the manager and his staff did everything they could to make our stay as enjoyable as possible! The dinner at the hotel was delicious. It’s an old Kerala house that has been totally renovated so the main building is actually very charming. They are building, so in a year or too it will be much bigger.

IndiaWe had a great experience—good service, good food, and a comfortable stay. The highlight of our trip was the early morning sunrise boating that they arranged for us. We enjoyed the peaceful ride for about two hours, and it was truly memorable. Also, we had mistakenly left our ID proofs at the office, but the manager promptly contacted us when he found them and couriered them to us without any delay. We’ve received them now—really appreciate the honest and efficient service!

United KingdomWe had an amazing stay here! The rooms and clean and cool, the breakfast was also filling and tasty. They organised an evening canoe tour for us as well as lending us their kayaks in the morning to explore the island. The best part of our trip, however, was the fishing trip the owner organised for us. The usual fisherman they use was away so he went out of his way to organise the trip with two other local fishermen. It was really fun and we had fresh mangoes whilst spending many hours in the river exploring. I would defo recommend this place to anyone!

United KingdomWe were dissapointed with the room as we booked a deluxe room and on our arrival were clearly given the double standard room. We ask at reception and he told us we had the deluxe room but this did not correspond with the booking.com photos.
This house did the job for our stay. We loved the area and the house was comfortable.

CanadaEverything about the property was excellent, but there’s not much else around - we were disappointed by the other restaurants in the area.
We came for my birthday and it was absolutely lovely. The food was phenomenal and the even made me a local Keralan style cake on my wife’s request! We also did a boat ride around the backwaters which was great fun. So good, would absolutely recommend.

MalaysiaThe roads leading to the resort are not tarred and not car-conducive. The best way to come here is by train stopping at Munroturuttu.
1 The resort is in the village neighborhood and so you get to see the villagers' daily lives at the island 2 The resort is built in traditional Keralan architectural style and it is very beautiful at night 3 Mr Shivan and staffs are attentive and welcoming. You get to order local cuisine at the hotel which is very convenient especially for dinner where the island gets very dark. I had the Karimeen and it was delicious 4 There are many activities you can choose from. I went for kayaking in the canals. It was quite challenging as the canals are narrow and there are many low bridges and other canoes plying the waters. But I had a lot of fun.

Czech RepublicLocated on the Monroe Island, right on the boating canals that lead to the Ashtamudi lake. I really enjoyed the stay, the bost ride, the friendliness of the staff and the amazing lady who prepared the most delicious Kerala cuisine. It was like staying with a family. They took the extra mile to make it a memorable stay, leaving me a bit sad on leaving. Heartily recommend!

United KingdomWell, not withstanding the fact that we wondered why we had come to the Island at all…..there is nothing here and given that we were off to Alleppy straight afterwards (station is 9 mins walk away and the ticket is 20p, it takes two hours)….there wasn’t really anything to moan about. However, there is some building work going on. When the listing says the property has a pool, you’ll know they’ve finished
This is a wonderful stay, the manager was very kind. The room didn’t disappoint with the standard ‘million light switches’ to fathom out- so common in India. The room was very, very nice and we loved the wrap around Veranda. (never saw the bath robes and the toiletries turnedout to be ‘leftovers’ plus the standard bar of green soap) Went out kayaking with a guide from the hotel which was fabulous. Food is available at the hotel which is reasonably priced. But delivered at a glacial pace. We stayed for four days which was probably too long.
