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 reviewI like the cleanliness. The gear provided so we can do cooking, The very helpful staff and the whole community. Typical filipino hospitality.
I booked a 2 bedrooms place or apartment one bedroom for me and my partner so we have privacy. what I got was a massive room with a so called attached room with no door, and Whoever goes to the toilet will have to pass the so called attached room. As a result, I had to pay for another room for me and my partner. Xtra payment (2500.00pesos). I wasn't happy.
Thank you for your very kind words towards our staff and our community. I understand that you were not happy regarding the the extra payment for the use of the extra room. I have checked your booking and it clearly says that you booked our Family room with sea view, the description and the room details were also clearly stated in our description as a one room with 2 large beds, one double, one single and one bunk bed. None of our description says that we have a two bedroom apartment as you mentioned. Regarding the extra payment, please understand the extra cost that goes with the use of the room facilities such as electricity, water, decent wage for my staff, tax, etc. Please feel free to reach us and we would be glad to assist and we look forward to welcome you at Seven Waves Beachfront Residence in the future. Thank you!

Verified reviewWe loved the People (the owner and staff are very accommodating) The location is peaceful. The Beach Front was so nice. You can do running or walking at the sea shore. The sand was so refined good for those with nirarayuma🙂✌️.. Kidding aside you can play in it. The Facility was so nice. It's newly built and no worries for black out because their electricity is fully solar operated. Overall our stay in Seven waves Beachfront Residence was so relaxing that if only we didn't have work to do the next morning we will stay for more days!! Thank you so much! 🫡🫡

Verified reviewOur stay at Seven Waves Beachfront Residence was an unforgettable experience! Getting there was a bit of an adventure with the rough road, but as soon as we arrived, we knew we had found a hidden paradise. The owner welcomed us with such warmth and hospitality, making us feel at home right away. The accommodations were comfortable and well-maintained, providing the perfect spot to relax. But what truly made our trip special was the stunning beach and the breathtaking sunsets—we spent our evenings just taking it all in, and it was absolutely magical. If you're looking for a peaceful escape with friends, amazing service, and views that take your breath away, this is the place. Highly recommended!

Verified reviewWe love everything inside the property. The room is clean and very spacious. As per description the resort is really beach front. If you don't have food nothing to worry about you can tell them what kind of food you like and the food will be served hot freshly cooked. You will dine inside the Kubo in front of your room. Lakas Maka Pinoy aura. My husband is Taiwanese and when it comes to food sobrang pihikan, But when they serve our first meal kumain talga sya with any side comment . Worth Ang money namin from the accommodations and the food. Highly recommended Po and the owner sobrang daling kausap and mabait, very accommodating. Planning to be back next summer.
The way to go to the resort from the main road is very narrow and will pass by residential with lots of kids playing in the center of the street. Which we found very dangerous especially if you're a new driver. I hope the road will improve.

Verified reviewIf you're lucky enough (as we were) to be the sole occupants of 2 of the 3 bedrooms (opening onto the terrace) in the main building built less than 20 years ago, then you'll feel like royalty for a night... Isabel, the very charming and friendly owner, gave us permission to use the whole building for ourselves. A ground floor of at least 120 m2 with an ocean-side terrace, a second floor (3 bedrooms) of over 80 m2, a terrace on the same floor of 30 to 40 m2... It's the life of a château. And because we are in the Philippines, you even get free karaoke. Everyone's great, and there's nothing missing to make you feel happy and at home (or even better than at home). Fully equipped kitchen on the ground floor, fridge-freezer, espresso coffee machine, gas stove, sanitary facilities (in very good condition)... But we're in the Philippines... So it's humid like nowhere else on the planet, and as the building is huge, it can't be air-conditioned... Fortunately, the rooms are. So Westerners may suffer from the heat in a castle like this. On the other hand, as is the case almost everywhere in the Philippines, the sanitary facilities (in the rooms) are not made by craftsmen who are used to having them at home. As a result, there are quality problems with the materials used, which age too prematurely, odours rise, hot water is produced capriciously by instantaneous water heaters with approximate temperature regulation, and sometimes the cleaning staff don't quite understand how to clean perfectly and above all doesn't report any new little problem to the management as soon as it appears. So the sanitary facilities are the weak point of almost all accommodation in the Philippines, and this establishment is no exception. To sum up: fantastic in almost every way for anyone who can stand the heat and is used to Philippine standards, but a few little downside for Westerners used to great comfort.
Frankly, apart from the humid heat of the country, I don't really see what to say here… For each problem Isabel has a solution to propose.
