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 reviewWine tasting, location and knowning a little about the owners its what we liked the most. The building is amazing, the outside area for relaxing in the evenings was even better than the pictures. Special mention to Sofia that gave us some insight in sicilian life :)

Verified reviewThe location is in the beautiful Sicilian countryside, just outside the beautiful borgo of Sambuca. Antonella, the friendly owner is very sweet. The place is really nice and they have beautiful courtyard. We loved it so much that definitely we will return. The rooms are very nicely decorated.
Pity that we spent only 1 night... it is worth staying more because the place is nice and Sambuca is just special.

Verified reviewAntonella is charming and generous. She gave a great recommendation for an early dinner for us exhausted travelers. She provided breakfast earlier than usual because we had an early start the next day. She chilled a delicious bottle of homemade white wine for us to enjoy on the patio. Our triple room worked out perfectly for us and our son as we passed through the area. We loved the olive groves RIGHT OUTSIDE the gate, and the sheep crossing the road in front of us!!
It was a little challenging to exit the property on Sunday morning before anyone was up! The gate does not open automatically.

Bed linens and towels could be updated , as well as the furnishings. I realize they host travelers as well as run a wine and olive oil production. The experience could be elevated with small added touches.

Verified reviewQuiet location near the beautiful village of Sambuca. The basic rooms are located around a central hall. It was handy to have a refrigerator in the central hall to keep your drinks cool. The lady of the house was friendly.
Since there is no real hotel reception, you need to look around the property to find someone, eg. for the check-in.

Verified reviewSambuca di Sicilia is a lovely town to explore and many other attractions were a shortish car journey away. The room and dining room were classily decorated. The bed was really comfortable. Everything was very clean. The hosts were friendly.
Breakfast could have been better. The cornetto and coffee were good, but the rest of the breakfast didn't measure up to the quality we expected. It was a bit noisy at night. We didn't get the promised tour of the winery.

Verified reviewVery relaxing place B and B surrounded with lots of grape and Olive trees which where cultivated hosts were very friendly and welcoming , always ready to help . This place is excellent away from any disturbing traffic, but at the same time close to the main villages and beaches. Highly recommended for those who want to spend relaxing time. Interesting village filled up with museums bars, cafeterias and an amazing Belvedere.
Every thing was fine.

Verified reviewThis family run ands organic Agriturismo is located about 5 minutes drive out of the main town of Sambucca di Sicilia amongst Olive Groves and vineyards. The family greeted us so warmly on arrival and during our visit. Breakfast was provided each morning with a selection of juices, yoghurts, fresh fruit, fresh pastries/croissants, breads and fresh coffee. The bedroom is large and the ensuite bathroom is spotlessly clean. We enjoyed a fantastic wine tasting accompanied by a very generous antipasto selection alongside their wine cellar. Their wines are fantastic! This was a highlight for us and we highly recommend this to you.

Verified reviewThe location is picturesque and peaceful, just a few minute drive from the town center. On site is a family run winery where they make organic wines and olive oil. It’s possible to taste and purchase the wine or olive oil if you desire. Antonella is a wonderful host that knows the area and can provide recommendations. The rooms are tastefully decorated to match the Italian countryside location. This was a unique and wonderful stay that I will recommend to friends visiting this beautiful part of Sicily.
