Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomSome of the beds weren’t very comfortable but not awful. Also the garden doesn’t get a lot of sun throughout the day.
Spacious and as described. Good value for money. We had a great long weekend with 7 of us staying. Really easy and cheap to get Ubers to the old town/ beach.

United KingdomThe only negative was the beds in the downstairs bedroom were upgraded camp beds & could be noisy when you rolled over in them.
Plenty of room for a family of 7 over 3 generations.The 3 bedrooms upstairs have en suite bathrooms which was a bonus. Grandchildren used the pool every day. Spar shop & bars/restaurants a short walk around to opposite side of Marina.

United KingdomThe house could have been cleaner and better maintained, there were issues with the air con reported by others and the house does feel unloved with a pretty poor standard of decor and fixtures and fittings. It is a pity because with a bit of love and an upgrade, it could be amazing.
The house itself is lovely, lots of space, outside area and lovely pool for the kids. The harbour area was pleasant, it was nice having shops bars and restaurants nearby, they do get noisy but you can't hear anything inside the house itself.

United KingdomWhen we arrived the kitchen smelt bad of gone off milk, I told the owner however he ignored it and I had to clean it up myself. However there were absolutely no cleaning products in the house, no washing up liquid or sponges and no toilet paper, after the first night we had ran out. No kitchen items either like oil, salt or pepper. These are basic items you would expect with a Booking.com place and the fact it wasn't clean when we arrived definitely lowered the standards. Also the AC in top floor small bedroom did not work properly, I told the owner and he sent a technician round who just told me to keep the doors and window shut, which we had been doing!
Big space, plenty of room for the 8 of us, great outside space with enough sunbeds and chairs for all of us. Also it was helpful having en suite in all the rooms so we could get ready at the same time.

United KingdomThe beds were uncomfortable and very old there was a trip hazard around seating where gazebo used to be every person in villa had a trip over it and the children fell frequently hurting their toes and feet more towels would have been good wasn’t enough longe space for ten people television was too small and disliked the fact that the villas on opposite sides were full of youngsters causing havoc I know this wasn’t owners fault but definitely made me consider twice about returning next year we were at villa six last year and didn’t see any young groups around the villas villa was clean and tidy owners were very helpful with groceries and taxis which were much appreciated but villa could do with a bit of update and more laundry and home comforts

United KingdomThe villa generally lacked some TLC and there was not much of a homely feel about it. Walls were bare apart from a large print in the lounge which had only one sofa to sit on which could be a problem if you have a full house! The dining chairs seemed a little cheap and unstable and one seat came off, but they did the job. Outside there is a BBQ which I would not have used as it was very rusty. Onto the stairs - they look beautiful in stained wood, very modern spiral design up to the bedrooms. However, the outer edge of the stairs ran against full windows with blinds but there was a gap between the windows frames' and the stair edge which was very dangerous as we had a two year old and 5 year old with us. To help with this it appears that makeshift gates were put on the entrance to the basement room but not going up the stairs. The same type of gate was put up on the landing at the to of the stairs - they were wooden concertina style flimsy things like garden trellis which just hooked loosely to fasten - this villa is not suitable for young children! The shower in our room did not work correctly as when I pulled up the tap diverter it just came out, so we had showers with the tap running at the same time. My son's room had similar shower problems. His room had a balcony, the door would not lock, along with security issues and keeping small children away this was not as expected. I felt sorry for the villa because it is short of being looked after properly and could be made much better and to the standard you expect when you pay ex amount for a private villa. I hope that these problems can be fixed and although my report is quite lengthy, I would return with a group of friends rather than children.
Location is great for visits to the pretty Marina which you can see from some of the bedrooms. The villa is spacious and the kitchen was well equipped with utensils, toaster etc. All areas were very clean on arrival. The layout of the property is three bedrooms upstairs, each with it's own full bathroom and there is a further small bedroom off the lounge without a bathroom however, there is one off the lounge virtually next door. The dining table was large to sit 8-10 people and the beds were comfortable. The games room had a football table and you could also play table tennis which was a great idea. Plenty of good eateries running along the harbour which is full of a variety of boats both private and tourist. There is a Spa shop which sells everything you might need also. The kids loved going on the children's fair ground style rides, bowling and there is even an indoor karting track for older teens/adults. The pool was good if not a little cold towards the end of October, it is mostly in the shade.
