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.).

IndiaThe staff was super polite and the meals were scrumptious, felt like home💕 They made me experience something that was not even included in the package, they decorated the houseboat for my birthday celebration and even brought a cake for us. They even accompanied me to the local market to buy king prawns and cooked it for me. This polite and homely behaviour made us feel very special!

We had a fabulous stay and its our first time in boat house and we din’t find any boat attractive than ours. We will be coming back again and we can’t imagine travelling in another boat than this. They have excellent staff and they took care of us so well. We felt like being in home. Thanks for this awesome experience.

United KingdomThe boat was in a great condition, me and two other friends had stayed for one night. We were slightly late for our arrival however the crew was very accommodating and had left the dock as soon as possible so we could enjoy the cruise views as much as we could. The booking includes breakfast, lunch and dinner, I particularly liked the dinner served on banana leaf as it had dishes specific from the Kerala region I had the chance to try! Overall experience was a short and sweet one, the views on the cruise are incredible

CanadaNever every go to Pakkus shop (where he sells coconut spirit thingy) , we all got food poisoning. Dang, my two days lost. Not happy about it. I saw under the bed, it was bit dirty. For dinner , the water provided were not sealed. You better buy 10 bottles of water before you onboard. Try to wash your face and clean mouth with bottled water as I assume the water coming through pipe is from lake. No biggie.
Boat : Boat was very spacious, well kept and clean. 3 spacious bedrooms, front patio and an aisle on ground floor and ok first floor 10 person dining table , front patio and a glass rail to provide full view of route. Boat was very powerful and I haven’t seen anyone overtaking us . We never had any power failure or anything as such and AC were decent too. Each bedroom was well kept and all bedrooms had attached spacious washrooms too. Food : Vinod was our cook and I have no idea how he cooked that many dishes in a small kitchen very deliciously. Lots and lots of food, if you are a foodie . Welcome drink was awesome, then an awesome lunch with countless dishes , tea and banana fry, dinner was super heavy too. He came and asked for our likeness as we are not used with too much spicy food. Overall - it was superb. Night stay : We were concerned about where the boat is going to dock but they docked it on a super safe place and we got a chance to witness beautiful sunset . First time in my life I saw sunset that close. Absolutely breathtaking. Watched hunter constellation with my little ones, played chess and had an awesome night . Crew: Anandu, boat owner was very courteous and provided all details prior to departure. Boat crew was super nice , boat captain manoeuvred the boat very efficiently and I saw no other boat overtaking us. 3 crew were on board- cook, helper and captain guy. Very decent fellows. Parking : Parking was very easy , paid 100 rupees per car for 24 hours and it was super cheap and safe. Just 100 meters away from boat dock. Elderly: My parents were with me, they had a little bit of mobility issue but they managed it well too.

India1. Food menu supposed to given in choice to the guest and should let them choose instead of ready-made. 2. Should take initiative and encourage guest to participate extra activities like speed boating and any other available speciality during the tour.
