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.).

OmanThere is so many building under construction, and workers are working, their sound in the beach it’s not nice but what can do… But the sound is not coming in the room, that’s good.
I love this hotel and their kind stuff, they are sooo friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our trip so much and this hotel is one the reason I was so worried if the room is not comfortable, but is so good so quiet and good bed and bathroom clean Their food is so delicious and no need out restaurant, we tried outside foods and they were more expensive and less quality, so i suggest reserving include the food

ItalyMaybe rooftop needs a bit more light especially if one wants to have dinner. Also some dishes in the menu were not available.
Cleaning perfect. Beautiful room. Big bed. Big bathroom with brand new furniture. Friendly helpful staff. The staff at sky restaurant is very friendly and professional! I appreciated the buggy ride particularly: at our arrival, a hotel staff member picked us up with an electric car at jetty terminal and brought us to the hotel, same thing at departure

KuwaitThe Wi-Fi connection was a bit unstable at times, but the staff were kind enough to promptly provide us with new access codes whenever needed, so it all worked out in the end.
The food was delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The location was perfect—just a stone's throw from Bikini Beach, near Kettle Restaurant and Sunset Beach, making it easy to enjoy the best of the area.

GermanySky Beach is well located near the main area in the north of Dhiffushi with plenty of cafes, shops and restaurants around. The staff was always very helpful and responsive. The first night we had a pipe burst in the bathroom ceiling and water leaking out (luckily in the shower!) Staff fixed it very quickly the next day. The hotel also arranges excursions - dolphin watching, snorkeling, sand bank, etc. Prices are good and they aren't pushy about selling them either. Breakfast was good, although very repetitive so after a few days it would be nice if they would change things. They do sometimes also have Maldivian food which was great. Our room was large, with two double beds (family room). Sky Beach is also one of the few hotels on the island with a pool, which was great to have (our kids loved it!)

United KingdomNothing major, the room could do with a little minor refurbishment, some floor boards a little uneven, a bit of paint coming off near bathroom, some of the finishing in the bathroom also.
I have stayed in dozens of hotels around the world at different price points including super luxury, sky beach staff's service, friendliness and willingness to go out of thier way to accommodate requests is unmatched. I won't mention everything but they let check out 530 pm on day of checkout for free. Most hotels would have charged almost a day rate for that. They made boiled eggs and provided extra fruit especially just for my kids free of charge. They got me a mosquito repellent free of cost and many more things . They also arrange activities at reasonable cost. The hotel itself is on a local island dhiffushi which is small enough so everything is pretty close but big enough so that it doesn't get boring , the beach is a few minutes walks and lots of shops and restaurants.

GermanyThe staff was very nice and reacted immediately with offering us a new room even an upgrade after we noticed an issue with the previous room. As Dhiffushi is pretty small I think location of the hotel doesn‘t matter but Bibee beach is very close and that was very nice. Also despite the island being small we and our luggage got picked at the jetty. On our way there we used the local ferry and on the way back they helped us organise a speed boat and again drove us to the jetty. The buffet was a little small but it was tasty. Overall cute little hotel with very kind staff

United KingdomThe food choice could have been better especially at breakfast, a choice of 2-3 fruits would have been nice. Altough having said this, the lovely chef made us a nice indian meal one night which was so sweet of him. They have different nationalities staying so getting meals right must be a challenge. All in all, it was adequate as were there only for 4 nights.
That the island itself was small so we could see it and walk around and use different beaches. The manager Asif was wonderful. He was polite, courteous and went beyond the call of duty to assist us so we would have a happy time. The 2 young ladies in the dining room Pooja and Preeti were so lovely, always smiling, polite and respectful as was the young lad Sharat who cleaned our rooms with a smile on his face always. All in all they all made us ffel special and at home. We were a group of 5 ages from 60-80. Asif arranged all our tours which were seamless. He made sure we had the sunbeds ready at the beach too.

United KingdomMosquitoes was a nuisance but staff provided repellents. Better be prepared for mosquito stings with creams and repellents.
Excellent location very close to the beach. Friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable beds and clean rooms. Delicious breakfast and dinner. We highly recommend the local fish and lobster which can be ordered separately. There are no restaurants on the island but you do not need to search for one anyway. It is practical to have breakfast and dinner at the hotel.
