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 StatesGetting to the hotel was very easy. We arrived via flight, and the shuttle service was easy to find. Upon arrival, we were greeted with leis. Our room wasn't ready as we arrived rather early. However, it was walking distance to an Avis where we were able to get a rental for the day. We stayed in an ocean view room, and it did not disappoint! Beach access was great; you can eat at a restaurant that's located right on the beach. Across the street from the restaurant (on the same side the hotel is on), you have La Plage where you can book activities and have access to towels, etc. Maitai was a great introduction to Bora Bora and while we only stayed there for a day, it was a wonderful experience! Pictures don't do the view justice!

GermanyVery small beach. Too small for the number of hotel guests. Was packed, so we could not use it. No swimming pool. Our neighbors were smoking cigarettes and cannabis without interruption and the wind was bringing the smoke and odors into our room, which is not good, especially when travelling with a 1 year-old baby. So we could not enjoy the balcony and had to live with closed windows... This made the >300eur night too expensive for the overall quality of the stay.
Extremely friendly staff, Nice view from the room.

GermanyRestaurant staff very unfriendly.
We stayed in an overwater bungalow and enjoyed it SO MUCH! We were lucky to have the chance to check in a little bit earlier. It was the most beautiful stay all along our 3 weeks journey through French Polynesia. We were even able to pick up our breakfast from the restaurant to the room, that has been a plus for us. The reception staff has been very friendly and helpful. The reef in front of the bungalow is worth to snorkel along and there were many fish around the bungalow and we even saw sting rays. It is not the same like on the outer lagoon reefs but really nice.

NetherlandsThe reception included usd 100 on the bill for the transfer to the airport, but we never asked for it. We arranged our own transfer for usd 30. The reception was unpleasant to our taxi driver when he picked us up, as if he deprived them of revenue. Not a nice experience. Better to arrange your own transfer because the hotel fee is outrageous.
location was great. compared with the other hotels on Bora Bora it was a great deal.

United StatesThe garden view rooms are ok. Somewhat older style and probably could use some updating but are clean and functional. If you can get an over-the-water bungalow, that would be ideal. The sealife at their bungalows is probably better than the InterContinental, which sits in a sandy area with no coral. The WiFi was very slow at rush hour (mid-morning and evening to late night). They need a better system. I couldn't make 2 conference calls because the WiFi was so slow.
The location near Matira is very good. The beach, the docks, and the over-the-water bungalows are across the street. The over-the-water bungalows have some re-stored coral reefs that are very cool to snorkel and check out. You can rent a car or bicycle at Avis, or wander down to the InterContinental Le Moana for dining, or The Lucky House Fare, or Bora Bora Beach Club, and of course the resort's own dining locations. There are also two small grocery stores on either side. Due to the local ownership, it has the most local staff, the staff are very friendly, and the guides are excellent for the activities via La Plage Excursions. You learn a lot about the history. Because we traveled around the island, we explored most of Bora Bora and were able to see some of the outer motus, which made us realize that if you stay on the outer motus you are kind of stuck there.
