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...).

United KingdomI wish there were a deck at the front of my room facing the sea. The view is good but needs to either admired from the window or from tje common area deck i.e. there is no privacy for example to read a book while sitting outside
Location is great, a d so the facilities and the service. Both the caretaker and office staff were so warm and welcoming, as well as berry responsive.

TaiwanEven though we paid for a triple room, the staff tried to make us pay a supplement for a third tatami May for our son, who they claimed was chargeable if we needed a third bed.
ThI common areas were lovely. We really enjoyed the kitchen and the lounge area, with the mini monopoly set.

IsraelEverything! The place is beautiful, there is a fully equipped kitchen, a beautiful lounge area, and a great deck for a barbeque or relaxing in the sun. Muya is a great person, he will help you with everything you need. The Island is also beautiful and has many hiking trails, some starting right outside the villa. I would definitely like to come back again.

IrelandI was there in the winter and since the bathrooms are outside it was unpleasant to wake up at night and walk to the toilet...
The location is amazing with great views and since it's a small island you're in no time at the beach or at the harbour.

AustraliaThis was a great place to really reset and have a break. Higher on the hill overlooking the water, its a beautiful location to sit on the couch or deck and just look at the view. The main part of the accommodation is a shared space that includes a kitchen, dinning room, lounge. We only had other guests there for part of the time we were there, but I think that if it was full, the communal spaces could get quite busy. As suggested by other guests, we brought over a lot of our own groceries from the mainland (because we were not sure what the local supermarket would have), but in reality we could get most of the items we needed for snacks and basics on the island. We were there in the low season, and there was only 1 place to eat out (San Chan), so we booked in there for dinner each night and it was lovely. It felt like we were eating in the family dinning room. They were super friendly and the food was great.

The value and story about the construction et purpose of the villa. Shiraishijima is beautiful and the ocean was warm enough to swim in in November. Nice facility with great kitchen and lounge. The bath is wide and the bassin large for one person.

GermanyWe really enjoyed our stay at International Villa on this small, but beautiful island. The view is absolutely worth it’s price and the room was clean and modern furnished. The house offers everything you need, there is a shared space outside as well as an living room and a spacious kitchen. If you plan to cook, you won’t miss anything. Also the check-in went easy an the manager was very friendly and kind.

AustraliaThe room could do with a fan to blow the hot air away. There is an air conditioner but a fan would actually be better and more peaceful/environmentally friendly.
Very well designed facilities. The shower room has two showers so a family or couple can use it at the same time, and the bath is big. Beautiful view. Peaceful location.

JapanFridge in the kitchen is not big. The local shop has a small selection of food. We had to bring a lot from the mainland as we stay for 5 days. We felt sorry for other people because we occupied most of the space in the fridge. It would be nice to have at least one room with a private fridge for long stay customers.
Relaxing, cozy and comfortable place. Nice location, not far from the beach. Thank you for making this house clean warm and friendly!

GermanyWiFi is only available in the common area and the fridge is a bit small. There is only one shower room, so when crowded, you might have to wait longer. Although we respect the ambition of the manager to keep the place in a good condition, we always had the feeling of being watched and standing in general suspicion which gave us more the feeling of being some couch surfers in a private home then paying hotel guests.
Nice Rooms with great view, modern and clean. Shop nearby, short walk from the harbour. There are a few spots to see on the island, most interesting thing for us was the hiking path in the hills.
