Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

AustraliaWe were super impressed with our stay here. Picked up from the airport, early check in was available, clean & spacious rooms with lovely flowers & toiletries, 2 awesome pools, lovely food & cocktails in the on site restaurant, friendly staff, ice machine on site, good swimming spot, amazing sunsets & great location. The staff were able to book a tour for us & we paid the tour guide which was very helpful. The communication in the lead up was awesome. The only improvements needed would be more organisation in the restaurant in the evenings. Staff seem to be running around, but instead should be allocated tables to serve. Our meals always came out staggered, so we never ate at the same time. I highly recommend the chicken curry 👌🏼Breakfast was basic but fine. Pizzas & burgers were yummy. We were in room 12 & found it slightly noisy around 6am onwards with people chatting on the veranda that lead to the office. Overall we did love this place, the friendly staff & how clean the rooms, pools & grounds of the resort are. I highly recommend staying here. Thank you for making our first trip to Aitutaki memorable 🫶🏼🌺

United StatesQuite pricey. It was low season, the resort was nearly empty and we were paying $350/nite US. Asked to be upgraded to a beachfront unit since 3 of the 5 were unoccupied -was told we’d have to pay $150 more/nite. Included continental breakfast was adequate but a bit boring.. vary the items, like use bananas alternately w star fruit and watermelon. Muffins must have been frozen, as very dry.
We had dinner there two nights and the food and service were excellent. Staff does a good job and very friendly. Great beach provisions, from seating to SUP boards and kayaks.

Felt like family during our stay. The staff were exceptional going above and beyond for our babies. The rooms were so fresh and clean, beautiful sleep and lovely facilities. Restaurant food was deelish, the best ika mata i had. The accessibility to the reef from our beach we were so lucky and to have a play with the kayaks/Sups too. Didn't want to leave. .

United StatesNothing - the property was great. However, beware if you’re organizing a scooter rental on the island, which we did through the hotel who use local rental companies who leave vehicles at the hotel. Insist on some sort of rental agreement, make sure insurance (or lack of it) is clearly explained before you use the vehicle, do a visual inspection with a member of staff and take pix. Everything was a little too casual with no rental agreement, which might seem fine until you have an issue, which we did and it ended up costing us. This tarnished an otherwise perfect stay.
Nice new resort, beautiful spot on the beach, super clean and the staff are very friendly. Definitely book a beachfront room if you can.

AustraliaResort Tava’e have thought of everything. We had a mediocre experience in Rarotonga and we weren’t sure what we would face when we landed in Aitutaki. From the space in the bathroom and overall room, the restaurant attached to the hotel, the facilities and activities to the little extras like an umbrella in the wardrobe, fresh flowers and vases in the room and the comfortable patio furniture, the resort was phenomenal. The staff are incredibly helpful, kind, polite & approachable. On our transfer our driver filled us in on which hike to do for the best view and what to avoid while on the island. We cannot recommend this place enough and are eager to return to this slice of paradise!
