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 reviewNice clean and modern rooms. The pool and beach were well maintained and the snorkelling directly off the beach was excellent. It’s in a great location for the sunset which was amazing every night we were there!
Only the one restaurant on site which had a limited menu.

Verified reviewThe location and the view was amazing! The bed was so comfortable.
The property needs a freshen up. The rooms are very used, so it needs a good tidy. I had dinner at the restaurant. The food was amazing however, the waiter I had was not the friendliest. Seemed like he was having a bad day.

Verified reviewBeautiful aesthetic and the lagoon at our doorstep/ literally. Great location and about 15 minute walk to the shops and other food places. Well maintained and very clean. Super attentive reception staff helped us with everything.
The restaurant food was terrible and I wouldn’t eat there again.

Verified reviewWe loved our 3-night stay at this hotel. Our room was a suite with separate living room with nicely equipped kitchenette, and a bedroom. A separate toilet too. The balcony is large with a table & 4 chairs plus 2 loungers. Beautiful views. The pool is large and gorgeous with lots of loungers. The beach is small and has sharp coral bits so aqua shoes are needed. The large restaurant area has a good reputation with live evening entertainment, but we were disappointed with our hamburger lunch (dry & tasteless) so we didn’t eat there again. All meals are charged to guests, even breakfast. The hotel does not have rooms on stilts which was fine for us. Staff are friendly and helpful.
It is a little far from restaurants so a car is needed. We hired a car and it was perfect to get all over the island for meals, swimming and touring. We didn’t understand why we were asked not to take the hotel swim towels to the island’s beaches. Most travelers come from very far away and would not be inclined to pack beach towels.

Verified reviewStaff were friendly and helpful. The pool is great with very attentive pool bar staff. Room was a good size and balcony was great. We had scooters from Moorea Fun Bikes which was a great bonus to be able to explore Moorea and have options. We also did a great snorkeling trip with Captain Taina which then gave us access to what we found to be the best beach area on Moorea.
For Kiwis and Aussies it’s fairly expensive for what you get. Restaurant expensive and food just average (but that seems to be Tahiti islands as a whole). Not many amenities provided at this hotel. Recommend transport so you can access other food options and beach areas as the beach area is not that inviting in front of the hotel but pool is good there.

Verified reviewRestaurant was excellent, good food, airy and with stunning views, particularly at sunset. Staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Room was actually a spacious suite with lounge area and cooking facilities .
Access to the sea from the beach is limited and shallow, but good deep water swimming off the dock.

Verified reviewWarm, friendly staff always willing to help. Smooth check-in. Sea view in our case was a view of the lagoon which was a disappointment, but we had lots of privacy, and it was quiet. Happy to have had parking included in the stay. Suite was very comfortable and clean. When you’re paying over $700 CND a night, there should be two bottles of complimentary water per day, complimentary water
