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.).

United KingdomFantastic hotel! The location is perfect — just a short boat trip from the airport, with transfers easily arranged by the hotel team. The rooms are spotless and very well maintained, and the beach is clean and beautifully looked after. There are plenty of sun loungers, so there’s no need to compete with other guests for one! However, the hotel’s greatest asset is its people — the front desk team (especially Charlene), the restaurant staff, and the lovely gentleman who helped arrange my snorkelling trip— everyone was fantastic. I couldn’t recommend this hotel highly enough and would definitely come back!

United KingdomA gem of a hotel/resort on a local island. This place is like paradise, situated on own part of island with beautiful private beach. Immaculate modern rooms, lovely gardens and beach, fantastic restaurant, varied menus daily, HB included 5 course evening meals, and daily breakfast menus. The staff are great, friendly, fun, really do make the holiday. Very relaxed atmosphere, hotel staff are able to arrange excursions and transfers, nothing too much trouble, lovely birthday surprises from hotel. Highly recommend this hotel to thise who wants a slice of paradise and have the option to experience local life.

JerseyNothing- all was fantastic.
Fantastic stay - 4 days, 2 rooms with adult family. The hotel is spotless and surrounded by nature. It has its own beach which is just stunning. Lots of fantastic trips (snorkeling with rays was outstanding) - staff are friendly and more than happy to help. This is not a private island, so there are small local shops in the town and a few excellent local restaurants. Getting about is by golf cart (supplied by the hotel). This is an alcohol free island which didn't bother us, but if you fancy a drink the hotel can organise a boat to take you to other islands or to the floating bar. Food at the hotel is fab- not masses of choice, but what they do, they do very well. Plenty to eat at breakfast too. All in all, this is probably one of the best hotels I've stayed in which retains its Maldavian roots. Thanks so much.

THE ACCOMMODATION WAS EXCELLENT WITH ALL ITS POSSIBILITIES AND FACILITIES (QUIET BEACH, SURROUNDING NATURE, POSSIBILITY OF EXCURSIONS, FOOD OFFERING IN THE RESTAURANT...). THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND MOST WONDERFUL WAS THE STAFF. COMPLIMENTS TO ALL THE STAFF OF THE ENTIRE HOTEL BECAUSE THEY RESOLVED OUR EVERY REQUEST IN RECORD TIME AND AS WE WERE ON HOLIDAY WITH A SIX-MONTH-OLD CHILD, THEY WERE ALWAYS THERE TO ANIMATE HIM, LOOK AFTER HIM AND PLAY WITH HIM. WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND A WONDERFUL HOTEL. IF YOU WANT TO RELAX AND IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR PEACE, THIS HOTEL IS THE RIGHT CHOICE.

The overall experience at this place was amazing. It truly is an extraordinary place. We felt like in a paradise there. It is a very calm, peaceful place. We loved the private beach ( a few steps from our apartment ) and the sea is safe and beautiful - perfect for snorkelling ( so much to see). We enjoyed additional excursions offered by the hotel ( snorkelling with giant mantas and turtles). Staff is perfect - kind, super friendly and ALWAYS ready to help. Special THANK YOU to Anita who looked after us and MADE OUR STAY an absolute pleasure. Everything was always perfectly organised - to begin with the Valentines romantic dinner and a special surprise in the room through the Maldives evening with a delicious selection of local food and local performance. We loved the food, all dishes seemed very tasty and delicious. The place is perfect for RELAXING break and we cannot wait to be back!

PolandIt’s almost like staying on a resort island thanks to the private beach, but you can still visit local restaurants and shops. Very nice rooms with an outdoor shower. But most importantly the staff is doing great job with solving all possible problems. The manager lady helped us so much. Thank you!

GermanyMaybe some more vegetarian options would be great !
Absolutely adored the Hotel ! The hotel is located directly to the most beautiful beach and has sunbeds, games & lots of activities you can do . It’s a private beach with a beautiful view on the sea and the resort across . It’s close by to the city but if you’re looking for an calm , relaxing vacation this is great . The personal & owner are super friendly and you feel well taken care of when having questions etc. My boyfriend also enjoyed some amazing time catching fish and we will definitely be back . It’s a 20 min ride from the airport , and I recommend the island itself too . It’s the perfect mix between a resort and a local island and I’d say I even prefer this over a resort .

LatviaThe hotel has a few drawbacks. A noticeable issue is the sewage smell near the waterfront on the right side of the property, especially in the evenings. Frequent low tides make it challenging to find a convenient spot for swimming, and the small size of the property limits space for exploration. Noise insulation in the rooms is poor, making it feel like your neighbors are in the same room with you. The island has many mosquitoes, especially in the evenings, though the hotel provides mosquito lotion to help manage this. Communication with the hotel staff before arrival can be slow; they are more responsive via phone than email or messages. Another inconvenience is the lack of a sand mat near the room entrance, which means sand is easily brought into the room even after rinsing your feet. Wi-Fi connectivity is inconsistent, with frequent disruptions, though at times it works adequately. In the café, tables for smokers are placed too close to non-smoking areas, which causes unpleasant smells to spread across the seating area.
The food at the hotel, while limited in variety (only three main courses on the menu), is of excellent quality. A standout experience was catching wahoo fish with a local guide, Abdul, and having it prepared at the hotel. Abdul is a professional who knows the best fishing spots and ensures a successful catch. He also organizes other exciting tours that are worth exploring. A major advantage of the hotel is the availability of unlimited drinking water for all guests, regardless of their meal plan. This is a rare and appreciated feature. Additionally, the hotel offers free access to surfboards, kayaks, and other equipment, which adds variety to your stay. The volleyball court is well-lit, allowing for nighttime games. The beach is well-equipped with plenty of sun loungers, and beach towels can be replaced at any time upon request. The property is clean, well-maintained, and surrounded by lush greenery. Reaching Hurra Island is convenient via the public ferry. The hotel assists with reservations and provides buggy transport to and from the ferry terminal, making arrivals and departures smooth. The staff are friendly and attentive, especially the waiters and a staff member named Moa. After check-out, the hotel allows guests to stay on the property until evening and provides access to showers and other facilities, which is very accommodating. The rooms are clean and comfortable, equipped with a functioning air conditioner and fan. Guests can also enjoy free access to board games, adding a fun touch to the stay.

The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed, and just steps away from the crystal-clear waters.
