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 reviewExcellent location to walk beaches and be somewhat central to all things we scheduled to do. Quiet and not too busy, except for a very noisy pick up truck driver who came and went very noticeably.
Nothing major to dislike. The bed in the room to the lanai was very comfortable, the two sleeping in the second room mentioned the bed was not great. That’s always subjective.

Verified review1. Sea view 2., it's really a minute's walk from the beach.
Renovation, renovation renovation, a.s.a.p. I assume that the owners tried to think for the benefit of the vacationers about everything that could help during a vacation, which actually resulted in an outdated apartment loaded with heavy furniture and many different objects everywhere. It feels like you've arrived at an heirloom apartment and if you looked hard you could find things there that you lost in high school. There are 3 pages with many explanations and rules of the place. The cupboards are full of things that you might use, wines left by the owner or the guests and the fridge is also not taken care of. The pool was closed during the hours it was supposed to be open. There was a smell in the shower which was probably due to poor drainage. The apartment has a lot of furniture and accessories which creates crowding ad difficulty moving around the space .

Hi Linda, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: - There are three A/C units in the condo, and all are fully operational. The living room unit was noted to be a bit noisy, and our maintenance team has ordered a part to address this - We replaced the cable box and modem during your stay to ensure the best internet connection for you - Our condo undergoes regular updates, including Hawaiian hardwood bed frames, stainless steel matching appliances (updated 2 years ago), new hardwood furniture and valence box in the living room (updated 1 year ago), and sliding doors to create a master-suite and junior master-suite for enhanced privacy - We also annually refresh the linens with 800-thread count cotton sheets and Hawaiian-style coverlets We hope these efforts reflect our commitment to providing a comfortable and modern vacation home. Thank you again for your feedback. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests!

Verified reviewPlace was clean and well-equipped.
The place was full of stuff from the owner. Food, liquor, beach toys. It was a little weird in that it was all accessible and not locked up in a closet. Felt crowded and a bit run down. The total cost seemed excessive for what we got and compared to what we paid on other islands. Cleaning fee was $354, which is excessive especially since they asked us to put all of the towels and sheets into the wash and to straighten up the place.
Hi Kenneth, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: - We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the Maui coffee and bath amenities we provide for all of our guests. - We also let our house manager decide what to keep in the home, when guests leave behind liquor, non-perishable foods, or pool and beach accessories. - We receive many compliments from guests who are thrilled to find a liquor cabinet, cold soda, and all the toys and beach equipment they forgot to bring. - We're sorry to hear that the daily rates and cleaning fees caught you off-guard. Transparency is important to us, and we make sure to break down all rates, taxes, and fees before the reservation is confirmed. - Our goal is to ensure that our guests are fully aware of the total price of the reservation, leaving no room for surprises. - Our intention is never to make our guests feel restricted but rather to ensure everyone's comfort during their stay. - As is standard for vacation rentals, guests are asked to complete a few small tasks, like removing their trash and stripping the beds, as part of checkout. - Also, the cleaning fee goes directly to a professional cleaning crew that sanitizes and prepares the home for each new guest. - While we regret our home was not up to your expectations, we’re happy to share that our most recent guests reported no issues. - We truly go above and beyond for our guests and are confident that future guests will have a wonderful stay!

Verified reviewLoved that the unit is on first floor so we could just walk right out to the grass and the beach. The little coved ocean area on the beach was awesome for kids…and one morning we counted 17 turtles sunbathing there! We also really appreciated all of the beach gear and kitchen amenities. We literally had everything we needed!

Verified reviewThe location and Beach access was amazing the BBQ area was nice and clean overall I would recommend your place to anybody that is looking for a nice peaceful and quiet area to stay I will definitely come back and book again
The parking wasn’t the greatest I think it would be good if they was numbered for each suite but it’s only parking and there was always a spot to park every night
