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.).

New ZealandI can't think of anything only that our time there was too short.
It was great being the only hotel on the motu and only accessible by boat, which was such a scenic trip over the water of different shades of tropical blue, being so close to the Coral gardens. The food was really good. The staff were very helpful and friendly. You could relax on the loungers overlooking the azure sea or swim, snorkel paddle or kayak.

ItalySome of the sunset villas don’t have a direct view of the sunset since the island partially obscures the view. This means that even if you have a villa with a sunset view, you might have to walk on the pontoon to see the sun setting in the sea. This was upsettings since it wasn’t clearly advertised when booking and rooms are assigned based on availability, so you don’t realise it until it’s too late. Upon flagging the issue and since all the other Sunset View villas were booked, the staff promptly offered to move us to a Bora Bora View villa, which was an upgrade. The other unpleasant experience happened when we had to leave the resort. The reception crew scheduled our return via boat with an incredibly tight margin between our departure and the flight’s takeoff. All the people on the boat including us lost the flight and had to beg Air Tahiti to find us another flight asap since we had multiple connections over the coming hours. I’m still not sure how this could have happened since I sent an email to the resort right after the fact, but I’ve not received an answer.
The resort, the coral reef, the service and the staff friendliness. Overall it’s one of the best resorts I’ve ever been to and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

United StatesWe felt quite disappointed in the food. It simply was not up to the standard of Relais & Chateau. Only the breakfast was exceptional. Dinner servers need better training.
Loved the design of the property. No detail was overlooked. Although it was fully booked you never had the feeling of being crowded. Over the water bungalow was chocked full of beautiful details. Spa very good. Pool delightful.

United StatesFood at the restaurant was good and at reasonable prices for Polynesia and for a resort, but could have a larger menu. After two or three days, the menu options felt short. And you do not have many options outside the hotel in the main island.
Best resort ever. Quiet, charming, second to none in location. On a motu (island) within the lagoon. Right next to the coral garden. The coral garden is the best snorkeling spot in the Polynesia, if not on earth. And it’s on the hotel. You can walk up to the reef and let the slow current guide you through the coral garden. The overwater bungalows were amazing. When I walked in I was speechless.

The location is amazing with a white sand beach and coral garden right in front! Do not miss to walk on the other side of the island to have a fantastic view of Bora Bora. Nice pool, bars and restaurants. Our beach bungalow was incredible and super private with an outdoor pool and shower.

FranceIt is a luxury hotel in a remote location, so high prices are to be expected, but food and any extra were extremely expensive (and I am not talking about the gastronomical restaurant. Even basic burgers at the beach bar was insanely pricey).
Stunning location, friendly and attentive staff, tasteful and authentic decoration, delicious food. Our overwater room was wonderful. The coral garden is stunning, and the massage we got at the spa was spectacular !

United StatesWe had a beach bungalow which had many sliding doors, a few of which broke or got stuck. It was difficult to figure out how to control all of the lighting in the room.
Gorgeous, peaceful, idyllic setting. Beautiful grounds. Everything is designed to feel like it belongs in this paradise. Incredible and easily accessed reef with a stunning coral garden and dozens of fish species. Food was quite good especially the breakfast buffet! Staff was helpful and friendly. We had a beach bungalow with a pool which was fantastic. The outdoor tub/shower was my favorite touch - there is nothing like soaking in a warm bubble bath while gazing at the stars!
