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...).

South AfricaWiFi needs improving.
This is a little piece of paradise-tucked into the jungle of a village 7min by tuktuk from Anhangama, this architectural design diamond is a real oasis. If you appreciate small boutique guest houses, this is a great find. The bungalow style comes close to Bawa-tropical minimalism at its best. Comfy rooms with stunning outdoor bathrooms; a glorious cool pool and much garden splendor: mongoose, black face monkeys, kingfishers, oriole and bats at night. The two wonderful gentlemen staff are never too busy to smile and serve tea or a fresh fruit juice- they run the house and the garden with calm, kind generosity. Breakfast is either scrumptious local or fruit and eggs.

SwedenI do feel like the value for money could be a little better - for instance when paying close to $90US per night, I think there should be shampoo in the shower and a mosquito net over the bed.
The staff was super friendly, Asanka made us feel super welcome and made a delicious breakfast ☺️a really small cute place that’s perfect for couples. Bonus point for really good coffee 🥰

SpainIncredible villa, nearby the ocean and in the jungle! We had the chance to be at the villa when the owner, Stéphane, was there. Him and his staff were very welcoming and warm hearted. We shared several meal with him, making us feel part of his family. Regarding the villa, it is beyond beautiful and relaxing. Everything is very well taken care of and the staff is at your disposal should you need anything. All the amenities are new and work perfectly. Stephane told us a lot of stories about Sri Lanka and it's experience there which was definetly a plus. We will come back for sure

SpainThe room and bathroom were not properly sealed, and we encountered several unwelcome guests (spiders and other insects). The WiFi didn't work. Considering other options closer to town and the beach, this place is not good value for money (keep in mind it's a 25-minute walk, which can feel unsafe at night). The staff member (a single person managing everything in the villa) was friendly at first but started behaving strangely and rudely on the second day. The villa provided towels for the swimming pool, but he never offered them to us—we only realized they were available when we saw other guests using them. It was the night guard who eventually handed us a couple. Similarly, he never mentioned the complimentary tuk-tuk service, which we only found out about later through other reviews. Check-out is very early (10 AM), and this staff member seemed annoyed when we asked to leave our bags there and return later to change before departing. He didn't offer to help with our bags or even say goodbye when we left. The poor service is the main reason I wouldn’t recommend staying here.
Stunning villa, well decorated, the surroundings and the pool area are quiet and peaceful. Good breakfast included. The room was huge and super clean

United KingdomI didn't realise that there wasn't the ability to have dinner at the hotel and so had to get a tuk back into Ahangama to have dinner. Would have liked the loungers by the pool to have been adjustable and there was a little litter in the gardens which would be easy to stay on top of.
The property was located away from the beach and so was quiet except for the sounds of the monkeys and the jungle. The breakfast was ample, room spacious and loved having a terrace to myself. When I arrived I had a very sore neck and the manager came with me to an Ayurvedic Spa to have a consultation and then organised a tuk tuk to take me home after a treatment he was really helpful and caring.

IsraelThe place serves only breakfast which means that you have to go out with Tuktuk in order to eat. The bed was very squeaky, every movement made a lot of noise. Also the bathroom roof is not sealed so there were many mosquitoes on the room.
The place is beautiful. You can really feel the nature around you. The staff was great. Breakfast was simple and good, great coffee

United KingdomNoise from other rooms, you can hear other people’s snoring. The setting is nice, but I don’t think the location is great: you need to take a tuk tuk to reach the Kabalana beach and also to go to most restaurants. There is no one at night and there are dogs wondering around the property: they have damaged 2 pairs of shoes which I had left just outside my room in the inner yard (the owner apologised and I didn’t pay for the room at the end although shoes value was 3 times the room value), still it felt pretty annoying because this isn’t be a regular thing and they should warn guests. It would have been nice to have mosquito net.
The villa is very well decorated, the setting was nice, the pool too. it’s cleaned and good value for money.

GermanyNothing. It was fantastic.
It’s a beautiful and quiet place to relax. The Villa has a beautiful garden and it is an absolute joy to relax at the pool and watching the birds flying around. The whole garden is in a very good shape and the lovely staff really do a great job maintaining it clean and natural. We have had a lovely room with an outstanding outdoor bathroom. It was super clean, the bed was comfortable and had a mosquito net. The host was fantastic. He takes care of everything and is super friendly, reliable and helps you out with whatever question you have. We have been there at the beginning of our holidays and decided to come back at the end since we enjoyed so much. Definitely a perfect stay if you are looking for a quite place to hide out.
