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 reviewReally comfortable and clean rooms and a reasonable price. Breakfast was delicious and filling. Staff were friendly and very helpful for booking local attractions. Location is very close to the beach.
The location is sort of in between Uppuveli and Trincomalee. It’s about 30 mins along the beach to where the main restaurants and beach is in Uppuveli and then about 45 mins walk into Trincomalee. We quite liked this as was only 300 rupee tuk tuk or walk to get to either and was a quiet spot with a few very cheap local restaurants nearby. However, if you wanted to be right in Uppuveli next to main touristy restaurants and beach sunbeds then might not be ideal.
Dear Olivia Greetings from Elvis Beach Resort Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay – from the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms to our breakfast and helpful staff. It’s great to know you found the location convenient and appreciated the assistance with booking local attractions. Your kind words mean a lot to us and will be shared with the entire team. We’re so glad we could contribute to a positive experience, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable stay near the beach. Warm regards, EBR Management.

Verified reviewPavi and the team were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and pleasant, except for the bathroom. Lovely courtyard and a nice breakfast.
The bathroom was somewhat smelly and not thoroughly cleaned. It also looked like a self-contained container with no window, which didn’t help. On top of that, we had a literal ant invasion in our room – apparently only ours, but still, not great. The place is quiet, but this also means you need a scooter or a tuk-tuk to get around, as even Uppveli Beach is about a 30-minute walk away.
Dear Veronica Greetings from Elvis beach resort Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you appreciated the warm hospitality from Pavi and the team, as well as the spacious room, lovely courtyard, and breakfast. We're truly sorry to learn that the bathroom did not meet your expectations. Cleanliness is very important to us, and we will be addressing this with our housekeeping team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We appreciate your comments as they help us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more seamless experience. Thanks & Regards EBR Management

Our relatives came to pick us up to take us out and it was pouring rain. Ravi instantly got an umbrella and took us to the vehicle. Second day our relatives bought us dinner and Nirosh organised the dining area and made us tea.
Nothing major but there were few cobwebs.

Verified reviewOur 3-day stay at Amazon Beach Cabana was truly exceptional! The rooms were a delight – spotlessly clean, wonderfully spacious, and perfectly cooled by AC, with reliable mosquito nets ensuring peaceful, bite-free nights. Mornings began with a delicious breakfast spread, featuring both traditional Sri Lankan delights and continental favorites. The fruit selection was particularly outstanding, bursting with freshness and juiciness. Just a leisurely 5-minute stroll away lies a beautiful, uncrowded beach. It's a paradise for foodies, offering everything from quick snacks like crispy french fries to satisfying full meals. We adored the velvety soft sand and the incredibly clear waters. A unique treat was witnessing the local fishermen's daily ritual, reeling in their nets twice a day. Exploring was easy, with the main high streets just a quick, cheap 5-minute tuk-tuk ride away. However, the undeniable highlight of our entire trip was Pavi, the manager. His local expertise was invaluable; he consistently pointed us toward the best deals for excursions, even arranging an incredible last-minute whale and dolphin watching adventure. As vegetarians, we found his restaurant recommendations to be lifesavers. Pavi is exceptionally well-connected and even drives his own tuk-tuk, making guest drop-offs a breeze. To top it all off, he generously taught my family and me how to drive a tuk-tuk, providing an absolutely exhilarating and unforgettable memory! Our deepest gratitude to Pavi and Amazon Beach Cabana for crafting such an unforgettable and perfect vacation."
