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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

We absolutely loved our stay with Jackson. We were originally going to stay in Alleppey, but ended up booking Jackson’s place because of the great reviews. We had a lovely couple of days - he’s put so much care into the place and makes you feel instantly at home The room is super clean and the bed is very comfortable with great linens. We would recommend Jackson’s place to anyone, the hospitality is next to none and he is a lovely host to get to know!

AustraliaLoved everything
Jackson was an extremely helpful and welcoming host. He went out of his way to assist us with the best canoeing, backwaters trip, ayurvedic massage and booking our train tickets up north. We never would have been able to do this otherwise. His English was impeccable. The homestay was perfectly located practically on the most beautiful beach, with a great cafe next door. The rooms were very clean with comfortable beds. The traditional Keralan breakfast Jackson made was yummy. We wanted to stay an extra night it was so lovely, but unfortunately the rooms were booked out. Jackson found us another lovely homestay right next door. We would highly recommend Shoreline and would love to return. Marari ⛱️ ⛱️ 🏖️ is magic 🤩

Great little beach restaurants all with in walking distance! If your looking for the best place to stay in the area look no further, Jackson is the best and he will do whatever he can to make your stay more enjoyable ❤️ He booked our houseboat for our backwater trip as well! To too it all off there is the cutest puppies there for you to cuddle Thankyou again for everything we will definitely be back to stay!

GermanyDirectly at the beach. The rooms are as pretty as you can see on the booking photos and are VERY VERY clean. With nice details in the decoration. Plus, he has an AC and hot water! And the breakfast is great. This is a home stay which warmed our heart. There are two accommodation in this property. So it’s very private. It is a family run home and from the second we arrived we felt like friends and very welcome - but had all the privacy we needed. Every one there took care of us in the loveliest way. And they were sooo helpful and friendly and respectful and made our stay so comfortable and easy. We stayed here for 3 nights and wanted to extend, but it was booked. But even when we checked out and went to another location Jackson greeted us every day and had a chat with us. I got sick on one day and they helped me with tea and medicine and kind words. I could go on and on about how lovely they are 😍 Thank you Jackson, you and your sisters are wonderful!

United KingdomNothing - it was perfect!
This is such a special place that Jackson and his sisters have created with such love and care - the best homestay in our whole trip! Such a clean, spacious room with AC and fan; loads of seats to chill on and a hammock to enjoy your morning in. But Jackson and his sisters are the real gems here - they went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and lovely. Such delicious food and masala chai each morning for breakfast. Recommending delicious restaurants nearby and sorting us out umbrellas for the day on the beach for a really reasonable price. Absolutely will be recommending to anybody who comes this way. Also, Marari beach is stunning, near deserted, and so clean. It was genuine paradise.
