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 KingdomA little basic in terms of accommodation but bed comfy, hot shower and powerful air con. Really reasonable and the location is excellent for whale sharks, Tumalog falls and Sumilon island. Beautiful coral beach. Could do with more sun beds (only 3 in resort!) We found the snorkelling from the beach disappointing in day but the turtles come about 530 and also spotted an octopus. Snorkelling at Sumilon brilliant, best coral seen for a long while and variety of fish. All the staff are very friendly and so welcoming, very helpful and fantastic in organising the trips. Food was also really good, definitely recommend this place

Location is very close to whale shark viewing. Desk staff were so helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure we got the earliest possible whale shark timeslot and get to our next connection on time. The staff organised ocean side massages for us at a good price and with short notice.

IcelandThere are dogs and cats around and may cause issues to some who are not used to it. There were unwelcomed insects crawling out from the sink or drain that could have been avoided with thorough cleaning.
The staff are attentive and the concierge service is exceptional. The relay of communication is clear. The beds are comfortable and the size of the room is just fine. The beach front is well maintained and are cleaned all the time. This beach is very close to Sumilon docking area so we only walk by the shore. In house dining is available until 20:30 and they serve a great piñacolada.

United StatesIt was a little bare with blankets and towels but we were able to rent those from the office for very cheap so it was not an issue at all! Just something travelers should be aware of.
I loved the owner. Hands down this woman is incredible. She makes anything and everything happen, she tracks all your purchases for you (so you can just relax and enjoy) she sets up transportation and runs the entire kitchen. She’s honestly an inspiration for how a hotel should be run. With that said, she was one of the biggest reasons we had such a great time in our stay.

United Arab EmiratesThe water pressure in the toilet is not very good. It took us a while to finish taking a bath because the water pressure was too low. Another thing us that they can consider putting a liquid bath soap instead of bar.
Very good value for money. The staff very very friendly and accommodating. They assisted us during the entire process in the whale watching and sumilon sand bar tour. The rates for the transpo and food are very reasonable. Around 5 minutes ride from the whale watching and just across the sumilon sand bar.
