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 reviewCame during the rainy season and didn't expect much from the trip but the team, Shahril, Abi, Bandu were amazing and attentive to make our stay as pleasant as they can be! They even set up a very nice dinner with a movie theatre at the attic which made it really special. Testament to this, we were only planning to stay one night and decided to extend to three nights instead of moving to the other beachfront hotels :) Wish them the best and keep the magic at the place!
Nothing!

Verified reviewWe had the villa to ourselves as we were a big family group. The two staff looking after us were excellent - friendly and helpful in every way. Breakfast and BBQ was delicious. The location was ideal as it was near to the beach and the jetty. The place is very quiet and we had the swimming pool to ourselves. There was also a place for us to watch movies and chill in the evenings. Will definitely stay here again.
Our room was on the ground floor and near the kitchen area. There were a lot of cockroaches entering our room at night. Also our toilet flush was not functioning well.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed the villa, especially the peaceful atmosphere, delicious meals, and warm hospitality from our team. It’s always a pleasure to host big family groups and see everyone relax and enjoy their time together. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the cockroaches and toilet issue during your stay. Being on a tropical island, pests can occasionally be a challenge, but we take cleanliness and comfort seriously and have already taken steps to address both concerns to ensure a better experience for future guests. We truly appreciate your feedback and would be honored to welcome you and your family back again soon for an even more enjoyable stay! Warm regards, Zinnia Villa Team

Verified reviewTwo staff from Sri Lanka work at the hotel. One of the staff was very nice, but not the other.
One of the staff listening to music very loud in the dining area. We couldn’t relax while we are drinking unfortunately. I wish he listened to the music more quietly. The amenities are poor. They only provide one towel per person. No towel in the bathroom. I attached some pictures. The room smells chemicals. They put lots of bug killer in the room and it smells unpleasant. It gave me headaches. Picture is attached. Honestly you can find a better place to stay for the money in Maafushi.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about your concerns. We strive to ensure every guest has a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and we consistently receive positive feedback, as reflected in the majority of our reviews. Regarding the music, we would like to clarify that it was played in the evening during the time when our open drinks bar is available to all guests. We always aim to create a relaxed atmosphere, but had we received a request, we would have been happy to reduce the volume to ensure a more comfortable environment for everyone. As for the other points raised, we consistently provide the required towels and have maintained high standards of cleanliness, which have been positively reviewed by many guests. We regret that this guest’s experience didn’t meet their expectations, and we welcome all feedback to ensure continuous improvement. We encourage guests to bring up any concerns directly during their stay, as we are always eager to address them promptly. We remain committed to maintaining the high standards our guests have come to expect.

Verified reviewWhat I like about Zinnia is their service. The staff is very responsive and helpful regarding the transfer boat booking. The price is also cheaper than others ($15/pax return). Upon arrival at Maafushi, there is already 1 staff waiting us to help bring our luggage directly to the room. The staff is very friendly and so helpful! Everything is smooth during check-in and check-out process. The breakfast is just simple but enough. The option is either American breakfast, pancake or french toast. U can ask for omelette or sunny side also. There is 1 staff that will prepare the breakfast upon request. For the room, i like it because it is spacious. There 3 beds for family of 3, but it is just me and husband. So it is so convenient for us.
The room’s floor is dirty. I made a complain to one of the staff then they quickly solve the problem. Although still not so clean but acceptable. Thankfully I brought my own hotel room slipper because there is no room slipper provided in the room. Also there is upleasant smell coming from the toilet. Maybe from the floor trap.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Zinnia Maldives! 😊 We’re so glad you enjoyed our service, smooth transfer arrangements, and the warm hospitality of our team. It’s wonderful to hear that you found the room spacious and comfortable for your stay. We’re really sorry about the issue with the floor and the bathroom odor. Unfortunately, there was heavy rain during your visit, which caused island-wide flooding. Our team worked around the clock to fix everything, and we’re happy to say that these issues have now been fully resolved. Your feedback is truly valuable to us, and we appreciate your patience and understanding. We’d love to welcome you back for an even better experience next time! 🌴✨💙

The location ideal,at the north part of the the island,very near the bikini beach.Although it's located right in the point of interest,were all the restaurants are,it's quiet and feels very safe.
