Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

GermanyEverything was great :)
Amazing stay with amazing and great people (staff and owner) - everyone was super friendly. The breakfast was great!! Just 3 minutes from the beach. Room was spacious, the bathroom was very nice - hot shower was working well. Super comfortable bed. There was a small baby cat that was being taken care of by the owners children. Would always return!

Czech RepublicOwner do not pass information about our arrival to Rodri so we had no taxi from airport and he did not pick phone from anyone so there is no way how to call here.
Rodri was really helpful and friendly but he did not forced us to buy some trips wit him at all. He helped us to get our luggage as it did not come at the airport and helped to secure our taxi to other destination. Casa Carlotta is like 5 minutes walk from the beach so no problem at all. Air condition was working nicely and whole property is surrounded by wall with gate so we felt safe. Breakfast was also nice but girl that prepare it speaks really quietly somwe did not understand her much.

PortugalNot really about Casa Carlotta, but Nungwi in general: you get hassled a lot by people trying to sell you tours, souvenirs, juices, nuts.....or just to engage in conversation (especially Maasai)!!! Every day, on the way to the beach and on the beach itself. I confess, it messed with my experience (and good mood). The beaches are beautiful, especially good for swimming, but you can also walk to Kendwa at low tide, for bigger beaches (you'll still get hassled, though :D).
Maurizio, the owner, makes you feel at home, straight away. Roy, the manager, and the staff, are super friendly and helpful. You have delicious breakfast (with Nutella, hehe) outside and the in the evening, you can relax on the sofa. There's also a shared kitchen at your disposal, if you want to prepare your own meals. You get a set of keys to the room and the outside door, so you're totally free to leave and return, as you please. You're 3 minutes away from the beaches, and on the way, you will pass by various restaurants (highly recommend MJ's for delicious food at a good price) and street shops (there's also a mini market, right next to Casa Carlotta). Definitely enjoyed my stay!! Asante sana!

United KingdomThe breakfast we didn’t enjoy so much. Maybe more options can be made available as people from different locations cannot have same taste in food.
I liked the friendly host. He is very amiable and easygoing. I loved the location🥰🥰It has close proximity to everything a tourist would want and a few minutes walk to the beach. Roy was exceptionally helpful and gave great directions.

ItalyNo view from the windows as the area is walled off from the outside world but that obviously protected privacy.
It was extremely comfortable, peaceful, and safe. The area was walled off therefore it offered a peace and tranquility from the action outside. Our apartment had a little space outside. Bed super comfortable. Everything worked well. Staff amazing.

It was exactly as described in the listing. Amazing location within walking distance to the beaches and restaurants. The apartment is super clean, fresh fruit, and juice with breakfast was most welcoming. The hosts were fantastic and accommodating. The manager Roy is exceptionally caring and attentive. I was well taken care of and will certainly stay at Casa Carlotta & Villa again.

FranceAll was good. The place is better then advertised
We stayed in Casa Carlotta in low season (April) and it was wonderful experience. This is a simple and quiet place with beautiful garden, just some few minutes from the beach, well surrounded (shops, pharmacy, restaurants..). We liked everything about this place, especially very good reliable service (you wake up and breakfast is waiting for you ready to be served, everything is clean, kitchen is well equipped (even blender!), room service is perfect too, a good pressure in shower, hot water, AC working very well, bbq possible). Terrace is very inviting as well, we enjoyed it so much while it was raining. There are everything we needed to have comfortable vacations. I would say the conditions here are very good with European accent, compared to other places we stayed in Zanzibar. Thank you Maurizio and Prisca for creating such a good place in Nungwi and Roy, who was kindly taking care of everything. We would definitely come back again.
