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.).

CanadaBeach furniture could use some maintenance. Surf shop only offers lessons in Russian.
Great location the beach. Much quieter beach area than Weligama Beach, yet still close to there. Pool was nice. Shaded beach spots provided. Our initial room had a lot of bugs and the staff immediately moved us to a different room no problem - new room was all good.

United KingdomBeach chairs were most broken and dirty. Breakfast area and beach front all need some TLC The water in front of the hotel is brown from the river. It’s ok but don’t expect a blue crystal clear sea.
Pool, clean big room. Good breakfast and location. Great restaurant next door Reasonable surf for beginners. The best is in front of the Marriott.

United KingdomThe hot water took a long time to heat up. Also, the hotel felt extremely clean yet almost abandoned with some furniture taped over in plastic and not a soul to be seen. Not that I used it but the pool needed a clean.
This place was quite an odd one. They were doing refurbishments on most of the property and there wasn’t a single other guest there aside from me but strangely they had a lot of staff cleaning the rooms so maybe lots of people just checked out. I had a good one night here with a goal to surf which was available right outside the hotel on the beach. The rooms were spotless and large with a balcony. Despite an abandoned feel I felt safe as a sole female traveller.

France+ : - We were supposed to stay 2 nights, but we finally stayed 4 nights. The whole hotel team makes everything possible for you to have a good experience and adapt if needed, it's highly appreciated ! Thank you all ! - Specially loved the balcony room with the ocean view and the beginner surfers just in front all day. Literally ten steps away from the front beach. Nice sunset also ! - You can let your surfboard inside the hotel and there is an outdoor shower when you come back from the ocean.

GeorgiaThis is my second stay at this hotel and will definitely come back again. It is 3 star, but the owner mr. Jagath and his wife doing their best to make it more. The rooms and territory and the poor cleaned all the time. The staff is very welcoming… right in front of beach… no reefs on this part of ocean and it’s safe to swim. In front of the hotel there is surf rent and school. The breakfast always full of fresh fruit (pineapple mango banana and more) also they offer transfer and different tours at good price

SwitzerlandThe Air Conditioners (Inverters) are installed in the corridors, which generate much heat. There were many dogs in the Reservation Room, which gave out a bad odor. No reception. Dangerous slippery step (Slope) to go down to the beach.

United Arab EmiratesThe facility is crumbling down, and it is evident that there is absolutely no money spent of fixing the place. Showers heads are clogged and there is no pressure. Rooms gets flooded when it rains. The Wi-Fi is barely working (when it connects). There are old broken sunbeds on the beach and at the pool. There is a surfing school as part of the hotel, but they only speak Russian.... Luckily, there are 2 schools next door. In summary, you can get better value for the same price in the hotels around.
Staff is nice and the location is nice and quiet away from the noisy and crowded Welligama. There are nice small waves for beginners' surfers. The restaurant next door is very nice and good. There is a buffet breakfast with lots of fruits, but there are not many options, and it is the same every day.
