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.).

PortugalThe best location you can have! Perfect place to have peace and quite, walk on the beach explore nature. Very nice staff always available to help or make a nice pot of coffee. Very nice breakfast. Kayaks available to explore the Rekawa lagoon. Walking distance from Wildlife Turtle where you can have a magic experience walking at night on the beach to see turtles. Plenty of restaurants on walking distance. We recommend the Shell Point restaurant.

I was there on the low season, having the beach right in front of my doorsteps all for me. :) Quiet, romantic place with lagoon and beach . The room is exactly what one needs to stay in front of the beach. No AC but a very good fan.

GermanyThe payment was horrible. Booking.com showed us that the Resort will take the money from my credit card and then the Resort said that only cash is possible. So we had to take a tuktuk to get cash from an ATM and go back to the Resort. This is time and money intense. The manager wasn't helpful. On phone he only said that I'm wrong. But everything else aas good.
Thie view was awesome. The Resort is between the lagoon and the ocean. We saw warans, monkeys, squirrels, turtles and bats.

DenmarkPerfect spot wish a wonderful location right in front of the beach and the lagune. Our room at the middle level in the main building had a great view and a cool breeze. There were kayaks (sit-on-top) to use in the lagune for free. At sunset you could see (a few hundred meters east) the tiny baby turtles being releasef from their nests and strugling to reach the sea. The staff were pleasent and very friendly.

United KingdomThe bathroom is a bit dated, and there's no mesh behind the louvres, so you can get insects (and frogs!) coming into your room.
This was my second visit here and it was as good as the last time. Excellent location and the perfect place to relax for a few days. There's kayaking and swimming if you want to be more active (though you need to take care with the strong waves) or you can relax in the hammock or on your balcony. There are a few restaurants walking distance away if you want to try something different. You're far from shops in Tangalle town though so bring enough cash.

AustriaNot a single thing.
Easily the best accommodation we have had on our one month long trip through the island. Incredibly friendly staff, amazing affordable local food optiones (that you can even pre-order so it's ready at a certain time) situated right by the ocean and next to a huge lagoon (that you can also swim in and explore with their kayaks for free). The rooms are clean, spacious and with a great view. After staying for 2 nights we came back for an additional 2 nights at the end of our trip since we like it so much. Especially at that price, there is probably no other resort nearby that can top this place in my opinion.

GermanyThe mattress was a little hard. It wasn’t much of a problem for two nights, but might be an issue for a longer stay. Also it might be that little frogs and geckos get into the room through little slits at the windows.
The view from the balcony is just stunning on the ocean and the mangrove. Sitting on the balcony at evenings, hearing the ocean, is an absolutely lovely experience. The room is clean and the staff really friendly. The food served at the hotel varies and is always really good. The beach around the hotel is really amazing. Nearby, different cafes, restaurants and spas are available.

Czech RepublicNot possible to swim (rocks, currents), you have to go further. We could not use their kayaks because paddles were broken and they did not care to fix them. You have to use tuktuk on dusty road to get there.
Really quiet place, beach view, spacious. Surrounded by nature. Outside of town, which is both - pro and con :-)
