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 KingdomI think due to covid and the economy here, some places are struggling to get back on their feet. So here the owners need to invest in some new sheets and towels and tidy up the pool area. And maybe some more staff as to bring things up to speed these could be a little gem.
The location is great, very central and at a picturesque spot , just round from turtle beach. The staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served at your table and the was plenty for your plate. The rooms large, beds huge and comfy. The wifi worked well and the shower was good.

BelgiumThe room was very humid (also smelling humid) and had some traces on the walls. The beach chairs were broken & felt like some renewals need to be done.
The staff was very friendly and cleaned our room properly when we asked. The pool was very nice and clean when we were there. The beach was right next to where the turtles swim every day!

MoroccoThe Staff made staying at FnR extra special. I loved the pool and the garden area so even when the sea was to wild you can always stay and relax at the pool even during rain. Rooms and food are good for the price. Would stay there again! When I stayed there there were not many people around so it felt very private and calm.

Germanythe bathroom was a disaster. so dirty, looked like it was never ever cleaned. room was okay, but could have been cleaner though. no nice view. state to have a restraurant, and it does. but it actually is just the usual tables and chairs standing there each day, you have to wait to find a service staff member, food not too good. can’t swim in the ocean there, but down in Narigama is great. we would not stay there again and chose another hotel for our last days.
nice outside area and pool, next to turtle point. staff very friendly, helped with phone reparations etc. but that’s it.
