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 reviewLocation is very close to a bikini beach. Breakfast was ok
Although we had a beach view room we can’t keep the curtains open and have a view of the beach since it looks into a public area where there is 0 privacy and everyone can look into your room. Lack of cupboards to store your clothes.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed our location close to Bikini Beach and found the breakfast satisfactory. We understand your concern about privacy. Our sea view rooms directly overlook the public beach area, which is one of the most popular spots on the island. While this provides beautiful ocean views and easy access to the beach, it also means there may be passersby in the area outside. The rooms are not located on a private beach, and we always recommend guests who prefer complete seclusion consider our garden-view rooms or apartments rooms located at Brickwood Ganduvaru. As for storage, we appreciate your suggestion and will explore adding more cupboard space for future guests. Your comments help us be transparent with potential visitors and make improvements, and we hope to welcome you again for a stay better suited to your preferences.

Verified reviewPerfect location. Literally less than a minute walk to the beach. Room has all you need - comfy bed and a decent shower. Breakfast is basic but it is what you will have in any local island. The food in the “fast food” restaurant is very yummy. Staff are brilliant, they will help you with anything.
It would be useful to have somewhere to hang clothes to dry.

Verified reviewThe room was big enough with a comfy bed and the AC is placed strategically, so it doesn’t blow directly on the bed. The place also has a restaurant with amazing wraps and smoothie bowls and fresh juices. It is positioned 10 steps from the beach and on the beach some chairs are avaliable. Right in front of the beach lies a reef where you can snorkel and see all kind of marine animals from octopuses, colorful fishes to white and black tip sharks (harmless).

Verified reviewNothing fancy, but it was great value for the money.
We had 2 rooms... one was great (with open roof shower - so a lot of air was coming in), but the other room had only limited ventilation.

Verified reviewWe stayed there for four nights and would definitely book again. The Brickwood is just as described. We were picked up at the pier upon arrival and taken back there at the end of our stay. The check-in process was smooth, with a warm welcome and a short briefing. The open-air common area includes a small café, the reception, and a covered restaurant area where breakfast was served. The breakfast selection consisted of both local and international options, along with tea, juice, and fresh fruit – everything tasted great. On our first day, we also had lunch there and can recommend the wraps and sandwiches. We didn’t have dinner at the hotel, but we often saw other guests enjoying their evening there, even those who weren’t staying at the property. Our room, 106, was spacious but showed some signs of aging. We slept well, except when neighbors were talking on the phone right outside our door or leaving their rooms noisily early in the morning. The first six rooms are arranged in a tunnel-like layout, one directly behind the other, which causes sound to echo quite a bit. Unfortunately, the windows only face the hallway—except for room 105—so you either feel like you’re on display or have to keep the curtains closed all day. The bathroom featured an open-top shower, a bathtub, a sink, and a toilet. Unfortunately, only hot water came out of the shower, and despite several requests, no one came to fix it during our four-day stay. The room also had an air conditioning unit, which worked quietly and efficiently. The beach is just a one-minute walk away, only two corners from the hotel. It’s located right at the island’s popular tourist beach, known as Bikini Beach.

Verified reviewBrickwood Veli is a perfectly located beach hotel where the staff do their best (and even more) for their guests! We were more than welcome there and all our wishes were fulfilled. Every morning our tasty substantial breakfasts (continental or Maldivian) were served right on the beach with a wonderful ocean view and flowers, which provided us with an opportunity of daily photoshoots😊By the way, one of the staff members, Akter, did gorgeous photos for us with his phone and also edited and processed them, so we now have awesome content for social networks :) Any question we had was answered immediately by the staff, Shavin, Akter and Sow Rav. The room was big and clean and tidied up regularly, a bathroom was huge with both a shower and a bath. The hotel offers a wide range of excursions which we also had pleasure to enjoy (particularly Sandbank, a very picturesque place, that was cool). The location of the hotel is amazing, it's situated literally on a wonderful well-equipped Bikini beach with a variety of various sunbeds of all shapes, a beach cafe and and lights were switched on every evening. The hotel is small, which we liked a lot as all the staff's attention was ours 😉It's ideal for those who would love to run away from hustle and bustle of a crowded city. The people here were incredibly friendly and sincere, always eager to help. The hotel kindly provided us with fins and masks for snorkelling. We were met at the harbour upon arrival and accompanied back at the end of our stay, both times we were helped with the luggage. The accommodation provides you with tea, coffee and pure drinking water 24/7 in the reception area where you can also relax in the evening. On our last day the guys from the hotel grilled a whole fish for us, which was very nice of them and also very tasty😊Many thanks to the team Brickwood Veli for our unforgettable stay on a beautiful island Rhasdhoo! Highly recommended 👍

Verified reviewThis guest house has a distinguished asset than other competitors on Rasdhoo local Island ; its proposes a sea beach which fits well swimmers and snorkelers.
I would prefer more involvement, more commitment by guest house team to take care better their customers ; Like disappearance of personal belongings ; In my case, Persol sunglasses lost into common parts (Russian families involved ?)
