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...).

AustraliaBeautiful property righty on the beach! Walkable to beach bars/restaurants on the road or a Tuk Tuk to Unawatuna. Place is kept very cool with an aircon that works well and sleep like a baby listening to the beach waves. Thank you so much for my relaxing week, it was exactly what I needed.

New ZealandThe internet is really poor, works maybe 5% of the time but not sure they can do much about it in the location as mobile coverage also really poor. Just need to consider if you are working or active online

BelarusA stylish, tastefully designed hotel located just outside Galle. You can feel it was created with love. Calm atmosphere, cozy vibe, and great attention to detail. The balcony offers a beautiful view of the ocean. Highly recommended for your stay!

United KingdomIt would be nice to have more upright (but still comfortable!) chairs on the balcony.
Stylish but unpretentious. Really good space, lovely four poster bed. Basic kitchen amenities but all the essentials ( fridge, kettle, mugs, glasses and so on). Wonderful balcony view of palm trees and the sea immediately to the front. The Reggae bar next door is a small but lively little venue with excellent food (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and lovely staff.

Amazing. The attention to detail in the design was impeccable. Understated elegance. Excellent value for money. Couple of cool little beach bars and restaurants around but nothing too hectic. Great place to wind down. You won’t be disappointed.

United KingdomOnly thing which is out of the control of the property is the loud traffic from the road. Maybe if the bathroom was enclosed a little this would prevent some noise? And wi Fi also didn’t work during my stay.
Loved everything about my stay. Super friendly welcome and amazing room with everything you need. Perfect location super quiet with a few amazing restaurants and bars close by. I didn’t want my stay to end.

AustraliaIt would be good if the stairs to the balcony had a gate that locked so I would be able to leave the doors to the balcony open at night. There is some traffic noise.
Totally stunning architecture. Absolutely lovely! Good attention to detail, nice sheets, towels etc. A great place to relax and watch the beach.

ItalyMalilo house could be out of an interior design magazine. It s one of the 3 best places I have seen in more than 20 years of travelling the world. The pictures are true to what you find, if not showing all the beauty of decorations, little touches, natural materials. I LOVED IT. Just to set expectations: if you stay upstairs you ll have an amazing balcony but also an open bathroom, which means noise from the street. They are working on fixing this already!

IrelandEverything about Malilo Dream was fantastic. 5 star beach loft experience for really good value. The staff were so helpful and flexible! The sea is at your front gate and there are plenty of local places to eat, drink and meet fun, friendly people. Indika's 2 doors down is particularly good. Will definitely stay here again. Boossa as a base for an extremely relaxing beach chillout stay is ideal and Malilo Dream is a perfect spot.
