Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United KingdomOur first ever visit to Soufrière (and St Lucia!) so we took a gamble on Samfi Gardens - we did not regret it! Check-in was easy. We hired a car, but there's space to park. The room was very spacious and had everything we needed. The bed was massive and very comfy. You could hear a lot of wildlife noise at night, which was beautiful. The view from the room, balcony and pool are phenomenal. You can see the beautiful coloured rooftops of the buildings of Soufrière, the beach, the sulphur spring, the two Pitons... everything. Felt very blessed to see such beauty. The staff we dealt with with all lovely as well. I can't recommend this place enough.

The staff were fantastic, always helpful and always happy. Room was clean, big bed, Netflix. The beer and wine in the fridge on-site was great value and the most important of all for us …..the view and tranquility of samfi gardens was absolutely fantastic.

United KingdomHonestly not a thing, my only regret is not staying for longer.
Absolutely everything, from start to finish! Finding the property was easy, the location & view was breathtaking! The room was spacious, clean, good kitchen facilities, comfy bed & hot shower along with a good sized balcony. I requested a Birthday surprise for my partner & the staff went above & beyond to accommodate this & my partner felt very special, even lighting candles when we arrived. The location & view of the hotel exceeded my expectations! I noticed others had commented about parking & although there are only a couple of spaces, we managed to find space parking to the side with plenty of space for other cars to do the same. This did not bother us, we understand the geography cannot be changed so easily & is part of the island. I can’t wait to return to this hotel & throughly enjoy it!

United KingdomSome have written negatively that you need a car to stay at Samfi Gardens, this is quite true but it is also quite obvious from the listing so shouldn't be a negative 😂 The short road into the hotel is very rough and is the only thing I thing the owners should attend to, it really doesn't need to be this rough. Like the whole of St Lucia if you are hiring a car make sure it is a 4x4 you will need it.
Pretty much everything, our Honeymoon Suite was larger than it looks in the photos, the bed was huge, good wardrobe space, nice spacious kitchen and a decent sized bathroom. The main attraction though is the view from the balcony and all rooms of the Pitons, Amazing. All the staff were happy smiling and helpful, especially Brian the security guard who was always in evidence and had something nice to say when we arrived back from dinner, you got the impression that he had eyes on everything and you would be very safe at night. The ladies in the office were also very happy and friendly and suggested our favourite beach, Paradise Beach, we wouldn't have found it without them. Samfi Gardens is not a 5* AI resort and doesn't claim to be and you will not be paying 1,000's of £ a night to stay there but it certainly have the very best view of the Pitons in St Lucia and everything it does do it does very well

CanadaNot great value for the breakfast. We had a very mediocre breakfast that was expensive, cold, and late.
A beautiful location -- high up and hard to get to without a taxi -- but that is the reality of Soufriere unless you choose to stay in the town. The rooms are a great size and the pool and views are stunning

Great location with spectacular views of Soufriere and Pitons. Milk was provided for coffee or tea and could be replenished as needed. Sitting area in room which is important since it always seemed to rain in the afternoon and couldn't sit on balcony since it wasn't covered.

United StatesIt was a bit challenging to park our rental car This is mostly due to the terrain Also, there are very few places to walk to easily.
We had a room with a view and the views were spectacular. The room was a nice size and comfortable. We had a king bed and it was also very comfortable. The shower was excellent and there were shampoos and soaps. The staff are very kind and attentive and helpful to make local arrangements. We bought breakfast items at a Massy grocery and made our own breakfast most days. The room had a full kitchenette with a microwave, stove, oven, and mini fridge. You can also order a very reasonable breakfast a day in advance from the hotel. It was freshly made and tasty.
