Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

If u provide lunch and dinner to the guests means it will be very helpful , staff will suggest to swiggy for food , I think that’s not correct , people comes there to enjoy the stay it should be peaceful with Gud food , but here we have to worry about food , we don’t know where Gud food is available , rather than that u prepare food in resort and u can charge for it that’s not a big deal , think once plzzz …
Resort was located next to backwaters , view was excellent .

My booking had complementary breakfast, in the name of breakfast they provided bread and jam (stating that cook is on leave). The hotel manager, whom I didn't meet is not a good person to talk with. Had an argument for almost half an hour. They were expecting GST but were not ready to provide the bill. At the end, I left and informed him on the phone (as he was not there) that if you want GST, you have to provide me the bill. I was on a two wheeler, but for 4 wheelers there is no in house parking.
Nice location, the staff/manager was also good. Right next to the backwaters, with houseboats passing by.

A/C is not working, and there is no fan in the room. We stayed at the end of March which is peak summer in Kerela. Our whole family with kids haven't slept for the whole night. Very suffocating and mosquitoes were biting if we sat outside of our room.
Location is nice, but there is little discomfort in reaching the resort, when you carry your suitcases. As there are no proper roads, you need to carry your suitcases for about 400 metres.

Room was disappointing - didn’t have a lakeview, coffee machine or a bath (as described in the booking for a superior double room). I had to request a change of room on arrival from one that was scruffy (and not matching the description) to one that was a bit tidier (and still not matching the description). No explanation / solution was offered either than the ‘correct’ room having been booked already. Suffered a suspect bed bug bite as well, which is a bit gross! Otherwise, the breakfast was fairly basic and not worth writing home about. There is probably better value to be had at other properties in the area, with all of that in mind.
Nicely situated on the backwaters, and the morning boat tour organised was great albeit very pricey relative to those in town. Staff helped to arrange a laundry service, which was nice.
