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...).

BulgariaI liked the resort in every category and aspect and therefore I. extended my stay three times in a period of 21 days. What I like in this place is the quietness, the clileanliness, the service of Maureen and the fact that she cares of everything without feeling that she is there. The quality of the facilities is perfect and everything I needed further stay was there and in working conditions. The resort has a common area with roof, tables, chairs, refrigerator where those who stay there could stay and socialize or like me usually working in the mornings. The location is perfect for sight seeing the island for visiting the capital or for going to the famous Ardens springs or Soda springs only Storing spring or the white island lagune. Near the property there are enough restaurants for brrakfasts of dimers.

United KingdomThe rooms are very basic. There was nowhere to hang or store our clothes and there was also no towel rail in the bathroom. There’s no where to sit to relax other than outside areas which in very bad weather is difficult, although the outdoor area is covered.
Great location Maureen was nice and helpful - she was able to answer our questions and queries and provide a scooter for rent Spacious room which was clean Kettle with coffee

United KingdomI really enjoyed staying in Happy Coconut. The location is very convenient between White Island and Mambajao Town, an easy scooter ride away. The rooms are surrounded by a lush green garden with flowers where I drank my coffee and did some reading. Maureen was very helpful and always there when I needed something or information! Thank you very much, I really liked staying here :)

everything about the property was exceptional. - resrvation waa a breeze as they responded prompty and was very accomodating with regards changes i needed to make - when we arrived the property manager was not yet around but we were welcomed very warmly by her friend - the room and bathroom were very clean, the bed was very comfortable, air con and hot/cold showers were working very well - location was also very good: it was not by the beach but it was in a very quiet street with well manicured lawns with lots of trees and plants which made the place cool despite the very warm weather AND it was in the vicinity of most of the good restaurants the island offers - the manager, Elfrida was very friendly and accomodating

SpainBut overall, the experience was quite disappointing for several reasons: 1. No service at all: We arrived at 6:45 PM (check-in is until 7:00 PM), and there was no one at the reception. We had to walk around the street looking for someone, and finally a local helped us contact the owners. To make things worse, there was a power outage in the reception area, so we had no light or Wi-Fi. Poorly organized and no staff around to help. 2. Misleading facilities: On Booking.com, the property appears when you filter by “air conditioning,” but in reality, only 2 out of the 4 cottages have it. The other 2 only have fans. Their excuse was that when they turn on the A/Cs in all units, the power goes out due to limitations from the Dutch investors. Honestly, that’s not the customer’s problem – if you offer A/C, you need to have the infrastructure to support it. They should clearly label which rooms have A/C and which don’t, instead of misleading guests just to attract more bookings. 3. False advertising in services: The amenities listed include “toiletries,” but there was no shampoo or shower gel in the room. When we asked for it, they said it wasn’t included. We had to send them a screenshot from Booking.com showing that toiletries were indeed part of the listed services. Again, shows a lack of professionalism and poor customer care. 4. Lack of basic services: No staff presence, no sense of security, and no one to turn to if you need assistance. Not even the minimum you’d expect from a guesthouse.
The best part of the accommodation was the beds – they were comfortable and allowed for a good rest.
