Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GermanyNothing, really, nothing.
Everything! The bungalow was clean, well working WiFi, fully equipped outdoor kitchen, nice terrace and beautiful garden! The bed was very comfortable. Ingrid and Fabrice were the nicest hosts you can imagine, so kind and warm. They did everything to make the best out of our stay; organised trips, gave recommendations and were always available. If you want to explore Tahiti Iti, this is the perfect location. Everything is close by. We had no problems with mosquitos as we followed Ingrid’s tips and with the vent switched on, it was never too hot at night. Ingrid and Fabrice, thank you SOOO much!

United StatesCars passing on the dirt road adjacent to the villa were a bit noisy, but there were not that many passing by so all in all not a problem.
Ingrid, our hostess, was wonderful. She is friendly and fun, and clearly cares about her guests, She taught us some French and we helped her with her English, though I have to say her English is way better than our French. :) The villa was comfortable and clean. This was a great place to base ourselves while exploring the southern Tahiti.

BulgariaNo complains... Only the smugy feeling that again I had a good sense to choose the right place.
Total autonomy in a house within a generous green space of a tropical garden. Although 50 km from the main city of Papeete the ManaOra villas are in the middle of a Taravao, a quiet and self sufficient province, in the middle of the island routes. The hosts, Ingrid and Fabrice will help your orientation in the specificity of Tahitian life, habits and geography. As it is written on the threshold of my bungalow: Le paradis c'est ici. And I confirm it is there...

AustraliaWe were asked to leave the pool area by other guests staying there, not really the owners fault but perhaps they had the expectation it was a private pool? There’s plenty of space for everyone though.

CanadaI have nothing negative to say. :)
I really liked how welcoming Ingrid was. I recently lost my mother due to cancer two months ago. Being welcomed by Ingrid was the closest thing having a "motherly touch" I've had since my mothers passing. She made my girlfriend and I feel extremely welcomed to her place with excitement. The pool was amazing along with the backyard bungalows. I wish we could of stayed longer, but as always in life you have to keep moving on. Thank you Ingrid!
