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...).

PolandPlace is great (not accommodation but the place) but no one tells you before booking and it is not written in the description with capital letters that getting here is the most hard part You can get here only by boat that is overpriced or by truck (500 bath now in the season) but you need to find driver or the boat and wait the group to gather and if weather is bad or it is in the evening you will not get here

AustraliaIf I had to be fussy, no safe in the room.
This is our second stay. This place is a magical experience. The food at the restaurant is delicious and fresh, with a great variety. The staff are all so lovely. We stayed in one of the rooms up in the treetops where you can see local wildlife, including monkeys . The local beach is beautiful, crystal clear water and not too busy. Garden of Eden is right next door, all night party. 100% incredible.

BelgiumI stayed here for 4 days, but I wanted to leave after just 1. The huts are extremely basic, with holes in the walls that allowed bees, spiders, and mosquitoes to get inside. There were only cold showers, and the lock on the door was so flimsy you could push it open. No bottled water was provided (even when asked), and there was no fridge, meaning only warm drinks were available. On top of that, my hut wasn’t cleaned once during my entire stay. Getting to the island cost 500 baht per person for the boat, and leaving by truck cost me 1,000 baht per person. The entire experience left me feeling miserable in the huts. Some of the staff were really nice, but unfortunately, they weren’t very helpful.
Beautiful location, perfect place to relax.

AustraliaThe photos are not representative of the rooms - especially the bathrooms. The “longterm” patrons, other guests. They seemed entitled and were very rude. Lucky the staff make you feel welcome.
Love the view, the service is amazing. The restaurant team were so lovely. I hope they get paid well and are taken care of because they work really hard.

United KingdomNo mention that this is a 48hr party destination. Music was none stop all weekend. People on drugs all round the hotel, the resurant closed and turned into a club. People passed out on the hotel grounds needing medical attention and we couldn't get any sleep due to blaring music all night long. This should be mentioned in the description so people know what to expect. Would've saved the money and just slept on the hotel beanbags like all the party-goers. We had no sleep and a miserable time here, went to reception 3 times to discuss with management but there was never anyone there. Restaurant food was nice but we had to wait so long, we had to go and go to get our own menus and waited so long we ordered at the bar. Wouldn't have been as bothered if we knew what we were getting in for, the description should clearly say it's a party hotel, we thought we were heading to a relaxing retreat but it was the complete opposite. Weekend from hell with no staff to help.
