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.).

CanadaDoor opened and closed with difficulty. No firewood provided for the first night ($300 a night off-season) and it's $25 to purchase. Firewood sells for $10 a bundle at a nearby corner store. The room had a mini-fridge and microwave, but no plates or cutlery. Toilet seat is not comfort height.
Terrific location and view. King size bed a plus. Continental breakfast available and self-serve coffee fixings.

CanadaNothing to complain about here!
The property is on the water with a little path down to a cute beach. We watched the ferry come in from the lawn in front of our room. Rooms were basic and clean. After reading other reviews we were very worried about what it would be like. We were very happy with the cleanliness and the water in the rooms was clean out of the taps. The food in the restaurant was good. There were 6 of us in 3 rooms and all of us said we would definitely come back.

CanadaPlease provide More towels, basic supplies in the kitchen ( eg oil, vinegar, foil) would be helpful and are expected for a kitchen . I also was surprised to learn there was no maid service in the room. When paying hotel rates one would expect that service.
We stayed in a villa so made our own breakfast and lunches.

CanadaBeautiful location and generally fine overall, but for the price paid the property and suites are getting a bit worn, and in need of some love and attention. Hot tub was out of order, faucet in bathroom tub leaked onto floor, jets in tub weren't working, bathroom exhaust fan didn't work, weather stripping on patio door was torn, landscaping needed some care, no bed making maid service, and the breakfast basket was also rather underwhelming. First world complaints for sure, but for the price paid these are little things that add up and are noticed.
The location is wonderful and the dinner at Atravida restaurant was exceptional
