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.).

IsraelThe staff was absolutely amazing! We have never met such a welcoming and attentive team. We traveled with our 7-month-old baby, and they treated her like a princess – taking care of her, playing with her, and always offering her things. On top of that, the breakfast was wonderful, varied, and of excellent quality! The rooms with the pool were incredible and provided us with everything we needed for a smooth and comfortable stay. We’ve already recommended this fantastic hotel to our friends!

IsraelThe shower in our room is located outside the main room in an open space. It feels a bit unusual, and the main issue is that it gets quite hot in the bathroom area.
The hotel staff is absolutely amazing – they go above and beyond to make sure guests have the best experience, with attention to every little detail. The rooms and the entire hotel are spotlessly clean. Breakfast is excellent and varied. The hotel has two pools – we enjoyed the one suitable for children, and it was perfect. The hotel’s restaurant is outstanding, and we were pleasantly surprised when they allowed us a late check-out at no extra charge. We will definitely come back again!

This hotel absolutely deserves the rating it has received and all the positive reviews. Even though we’ve only spent 3 days here so far and haven’t left yet, I wanted to share my impressions. From the very first moment you enter the hotel, all the staff are incredibly friendly and always greet you warmly. It’s as if the entire hotel team has sworn an oath to give you an amazing vacation experience :) The level of service is extremely high. While spending time at the beach, you’re constantly offered cold water and other treats. But in my opinion, the best service is the cold towel they bring between intervals :) It’s a perfect way to cool down. Additionally, there’s a happy hour between 1:00–3:00 PM and 5:00–6:00 PM where you can get one drink or cocktail free with your order. Drink prices at the beach aren’t expensive either — you can enjoy cocktails for around 280–400 Baht. The adult pool offers a quieter and more peaceful experience. In my opinion, the sea here is one of the nicest in Koh Samui. However, it’s not among the most beautiful in the world. The water is a bit warm, shallow, and slightly murky. The hotel rooms are very nice. The air conditioning works great, and there’s also a ceiling fan. The room we stayed in had a spacious balcony and a large couch. There was also a table and chairs. Most importantly, the room cleanliness is excellent — the hotel really provides outstanding cleaning service. I think the only thing that needs to be reconsidered is the spa pricing. In my opinion, the prices are a bit high. Compared to outside, where you can get a Thai massage for around 300–500 Baht, it costs 2,500 Baht here. However, during happy hour by the pool, you can get the same massage for 990 Baht. Long story short, I highly recommend this hotel. If yo plan to trip to Koh Samui, you should definitely stay in here.

IndiaThe property is located on an almost private quiet beach, the prettiest cleanest beach I have seen. It’s being refurbished, we saw some of the new rooms and they look amazing. It’s close to chewang and all the nice restaurants. What really stands out is the staff, I have never stayed at a hotel with more exceptional staff. They remember your orders, they think ahead, they are polite and welcoming, it was the highlight of our stay. The manager was amazing, walking the floor, chatting to guests. Even the massage was possibly the nicest I have ever had.

SwitzerlandMy only real complain is about the gym, the only facility in the entire hotel that feels out of place and totally not up to standard. The room is small, dark, with little to no equipment, and extremely cold with air conditioning aggressively blowing on you when exercising. If I had a wish, is for the gym to be fully renovated and at least doubled in size (there is plenty of space for that).
Beautiful location with a well kept beach and two swimming pools, one also suitable for laps and exercise early in the morning. Breakfast choices were good, with a selection of dishes prepared by the kitchen and a buffet to complement the offering. The garden and the villas are well kept and often renovated, giving guest a lovely place to stay

This was hands down the highlight of our honeymoon trip. Everything on all accounts was 5 star. From the staff, to the facilities, to our villa it was all amazing. We got a poolside massage that was also incredible. The breakfast was 4 hours long to accommodate all schedules. There was an app to request things or look at events happening, they were responsive. The Choengmon beach area was quieter which we liked. Their taxi service was actually cheaper than grab and we used it frequently. Everything was so well thought out and amazing, we looked at many other hotels but so glad we decided to go with this one. We were sad to leave!

AustraliaSala Samui was everything we hoped for and more. The beachfront setting was pure paradise, the rooms were beautifully designed, and the whole resort had an effortlessly relaxing vibe. The staff were fantastic throughout our stay—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. A massive shoutout to Jocelyn and the 2 staff from the restaurant and pool (sorry i didnt get their names), who showed genuine care and compassion after my wife’s accident. They are huge assets for this resort. If you have the opportunity to stay at sala, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

SingaporeWe really do not have anything that we were disappointed with since we decided on the quieter resort. There are some restaurants and cafes just 5 to 10 min walk outocde the reort but the resort restaurant have an impressive menu.
SALA Samui is personification of Thai warmth and hospitality, and it is featured in everything from the layout of the resort compound, the rooms and facilities, the meals, and most of all the service staff. We wanted a quiet stay so we decided on the resort at Choengmon Beach, but if you want something more central and with a lot of buzz then I would recommend the sister resort at Chaeweng Beach. Although the location at Choengmon is relatively secluded, it is just 10 min away from Chaeweng, where you can enjoy the many restaurants and shopping centres, and yet get back to the quiet of Choengmon. It is also about 15 min by car to Fisherman's Village, which is another must to enjoy the heritage and also variety of impressive restaurants. The resort itself is very self-contained, with a pool for children and a deeper pool for adults. There is also a gym, reading room and spa. While there are spas outside the resort and also at Chaeweng, I would recommend trying the spa services at the resort, even though it might be a little pricey. We went during the quiet season so there was lots of space and quiet. The restaurant serves an amazing breakfast buffet and you can choose bot the a la carte as well as the buffet menu. Every night is capped with a thematic dinner and we enjoyed the Lobster Night on Monday and the Thai Buffet with local dances and fire show on Thursday. Communication and ordering all your requirements (food, services, etc) are done through an app, which makes it quite convenient and response from the staff is fast.
