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 KingdomWe had to leave 😞
This resort is amazing 🤩 beautiful paths wind through the lush greenery to your villa. We had a pool villa with the most amazing view overlooking the sea and most importantly, the sunset 🌅 Villa was exceptional with a beautiful outdoor bathroom and separate chill out lounge. Huge bonus was having not only a pool and 2 sun loungers but also a veranda area with 2 Thai beds….they thought of everything to make your stay as chilled and relaxed as possible. The food in the restaurant was possibly the best we had on our month’s travels, and we made sure we checked out ALL our favourite dishes, just to check. Yes, there are a lot of steps to get down to the restaurant and main pool - 100 to be exact! But when the food’s that good… and to be fair, they are a beautifully constructed set of stairs!

CanadaBeach is not very nice if you're looking for a nice beach you'll have to walk or drive somewhere.
Everything! Amazing staff in a quiet location with access to the main area for shops and restaurants through the beach and a restaurant. Breakfast was always great, and the rooms were cool and clean. 100 baht per person for the taxi each way to and from the hotel was a huge bonus as well as the free shuttle to and from the pier when arriving and checking out. Wish we had stayed longer but we will be back.

HungaryThe only problem was that my holiday ended I couldn’t stay for more .
Lovely clean resort . Friendly helpful staff. They gave useful advices. Taxi service is available for good price to discover the island and fo stay on different beaches . The restaurant is perfect too. A few beaches you can reach by walking through other resorts . In Thailand it’s possible to do so. 3 minutes walk to a small beach where the sunset is beautiful and it’s good for snorkeling too. Next to the resort there is a small supermarket too.

United KingdomThe garden view cottages are very small and there are a lot of steps from the reception area to the pool. The hotel provides a cheap taxi service which was great, but it stops at 9.15, which is too early. Taxis from Sairee are around 500 THB back, which is pretty expensive.
Good property to rest and relax. The breakfast restaurant was in a beautiful location and the food was always delicious! The location is good as long as you’re prepared to drive or get taxis. Definitely recommend a snorkeling trip, they come right to the hotel.

United KingdomThe wife was disappointed that there was no mirror near a power point and light for drying hair. Shower heads could use a bit of work to improve flow, but these are minor issues.
Everything, returning for our second visit but in a better location as the trip from garden rooms to breakfast and pool is challenging

United KingdomNothing (apart from the cardio stairs to our room 😂)
Stayed a week in a deluxe sea view room which was certainly worth the extra! Pristine grounds, great snorkelling, nice pool, superb breakfasts (buffet with cooked items to order) and good quality meals. Location is excellent - feels isolated but in reality only 5 minutes walk from Chalok (loads of good places to eat/drink) and a good beach in the other direction. Taxis to town were good value and we were both picked up and dropped off at our next hotel for free. Highly recommended

IsraelIt's not approachable by motorbike, as the roads are very steep. There are many stairs, for me it was okay, but this hotel is definitely not a fit for the elderly or anyone with a walking disability. The hotel staff should guide how to handle the mosquitos (incense and problematic hours)
This hotel is an amazing experience. Feeling one with nature while sleeping in comfortable units is special. There are plants and beautiful animals (so many butterflies) all around making it pastoral. I was hesitant about the outside bathroom, but it ended up a fun experience. The place was very clean. The pool and restaurant have a nice ocean view. The staff was great, friendly, and welcoming. Pierra helped us with everything we needed, with much patience and a smile. The location is not central, but for us, it was a good way to experience the island. Seeing more of it nature and taking a taxi to the center in the evening.

We had an amazing time at view point, i did some research before going and it exceeded my expectations. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful and taken overlooking the sea. The staff were kind, attentive and a pleasure to be around and the views were stunning. We ate at the restaurant a few times and the food was very well cooked and a good price and we had some very nice cocktails overlooking the sunset. Thank you view point for our beautiful holiday. We would come back.

All services work well. Staff is extremely professional. I liked the shuttle service to the beaches for a small charge. Normal taxi is much more expensive. The view from deluxe Seaview cottage was amazing. Breakfast and dinner in the restaurant were delicious . waiters are friendly all the time. .The pool the garden and all common areas are beautiful too. Best resort in Koh Tao if you like nature and tranquillity silence and peace .
