Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaFood could have been better. More fruit, juices and regular coffee tea or even soft drinks would be good. An ice machine! Ice seemed to be rare. Wifi spotty, but it is an island.
Lovely cabins, exceptional staff in this small resort make you feel cared for, always over and above. The island is beautiful, the snorkeling off the beach great.

SingaporeNot much deck chairs/hammocks at the beach itself - mainly just by the swimming pools. Not having food choices outside of meal times 😂 (except packaged snacks n chips)
Clean toilets, easy layout of resort to get everywhere. Friendly and helpful staffs. Dive Team was amazing! Had a fantastic time at the bull shark dive.

United KingdomNot the largest space for swimming/ snorkelling, but would definitely try diving here if I came again
An excellent introduction to the Yasawa islands! Everything from the welcome from the boat to the beauty of the island was so special, and I loved the uniqueness of our beachfront safari bure. Special mention to the staff who were all fantastic and so friendly. I loved the chef, Tima, who made me feel very comfortable in talking about my vegan diet, and genuinely wanted to make something I enjoyed.

Barefoot Kuata was an amazing authentic Fiji holiday experience. The island is just under 2 hours on the ferry and once there you won't regret leaving the mainland. The island provides for a hike, amazing snorkeling literally 5m from the shore you'll see tropical fish everywhere and amazing coral, there are also options to dive and snorkel with sharks. The water is like a warm bath and you can enjoy for hours on end. The amenities are relatively basic however contain everything you need, such as power, running water, comfortable restaurant, full bar and wifi. Our beachfront bure was great, so easy to relax in and straight into the golden sand. 3 fans that keep you cool during the hot days/nights. The staff are caring, very nice, respectful and the happiest people I've met. All up everything was great, Kuata is the perfect place to experience real Fiji, allow yourself to get board so you relax and if you can't sit still go for a hike, go snorkeling again, talk to locals about their culture and soak it in. If you are someone who can't live without stable wifi and require constant entertainment and require 5 star amenities then perhaps looks elsewhere and review your life choices because to miss out on this would be a thing to regret.

TaiwanThe bure area is a bit far from the restaurant area, and surrounding still under construction. should look better once it's all finished. Funny to have the outdoor shower and toilet, but also brings a lot of mosquitoes and flies.
Barefoot Kuata offers unbelievable connections to the ocean. Snorkeling with sharks, at night, but also just down the beach was incredible. Swimming with reef sharks was truly a memorable experience. We even got the chance to see a sea turtle. We were told the bull shark dive was also worth its while. Meals were buffet: good with live music. Everyday a lot of people come and go, it makes the atmosphere a bit buzzing but I guess it's just Kuata's fame being close to Denarau. The staff were adorable! Thank you Kina for helping my wife with the shark snorkeling. We had a bure with view on the ocean. It was beautiful and quite. The room offered an outside shower. Was fine for me who felt closer to the nature but less for my wife who does not like bugs. You can pay both cash and card (3.5% fees) but there is no ATM. Loved our stay

ItalyEven if the food was very good, 3 out of 5 of us felt sick during our stay… shouldn’t happen paying 140$ a day for meals. We let the staff know and didn’t do anything about it.
Very comfortable dorms with fans and huge bathroom. The food was buffet style with plenty of options. The reef in front of the beach was amazing to snorkel. Loads of room to chill close to the pools and staff was lovely.

AustraliaThe food is ok but you have to pay like a package 3 meals per day which is understandable but a bit too pricy.
This island is such a paradise on earth. Spending time 3 days 2 nights and everything went so well. The dorm is ok and the bathroom is always keep cleaning most of the time. All staffs are so friendly and very helpful in every ways. Thank you for your hard work :)
