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...).

We had an amazing stay at Beach Stone in Gulhi, Maldives. A special thanks to Nilam for her warm smile every day and excellent service. Her colleague Oshan also deserves praise for the room service and housekeeping that were exceptional, and the Wi-Fi network was excellent. We appreciated the water bottles provided to us regularly. The staff truly deserve a 10 out of 10 for their outstanding service to the customers. the delicious and varied breakfast should also be remarkable The hotel offers a beautiful sea view and is just a one-minute walk to the bikini beach, which has free access, available shade, and lounge chairs. We highly recommend Beach Stone for a perfect getaway!

RomaniaThe room we were given didn't have a sea view, just a window that faced the lobby. However, I understand that at that time, no other rooms were available. Also, there was available only one towel per person.
The staff was very helpful and even accommodated us earlier than the official check-in time. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom included a hairdryer.

We had the most amazing two nights at Beach Stone. It was our fave place we stayed at in the Maldives. Nilam was so friendly and helpful. She helped us organise tours and speedboat and was very accommodating with checkin and checkout times. We will definitely be back if we come back to the Maldives!

United KingdomUnforgettable experience. The team here truly made our stay special. The girl at reception and Roshan, who looked after our room, were fantastic. She was always welcoming and helpful, and together they worked seamlessly as a team to make us feel completely at home. From the moment we arrived, they were attentive, efficient, and knowledgeable, always going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. The personal touch they brought to their service was heartwarming, and we were genuinely sad to say goodbye to them. Our air-conditioned en suite room was spotless and had everything we could ask for, including a balcony with a sea view and incredibly easy access to the beach. The attention to detail in maintaining the room’s cleanliness and comfort was second to none. The hotel is associated with a restaurant and an excursion provider, which was handy and practical. Both services were excellent and the best in Gulhi. Beach Stone Guest House is highly recommended for anyone visiting Gulhi—wonderful people, great service, and a perfect location!

FranceI don't have any complaints about the hotel itself but the island has too much building going on. A lot of concrete everywhere. If you are looking for a tropical paradise then you may be disappointed. The islanders need to do something about the plastic trash everywhere.
I would say this is the best property on the island Because the position is the best, Next To bikini beach. However, the island in general is one big building site. There is also quite a bit of trash around, lots of plastic thrown here and there so the island itself was disappointing to me. It is not the paradise I had imagined. The water however is absolutely gorgeous and as far as the hotel is concerned you could not be in a better position.
