Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United States of AmericaNo complaints, everything was perfect!
The apartment was perfect! Andrew greeted us with a bottle of wine, olive oil, and homemade cookies from his grandmother that were sooooo good! The property is one street away from the beach and the apartment we rented didn't have access to a pool but we didn't have a problem with it. The apartment was clean, spacious, a great balcony, great water pressure in the shower and the linens and bed were so comfortable. I loved the town as it small and quaint but has restaurants and a market! I only wish we had found this property and town sooner on our vacation because we would have stayed here longer.

Germanynothing to mention, just perfect
Tarsia Homes & Suites is such a magical place! We stayed in one of the apartments with four people and were all absolutely in love with the huge beautiful terrace, the two spacious bed- & bedrooms and with the interior design overall. The kitchen comes fully equipped and we even found food in the fridge when we arrived. The manager, Andrew, is very friendly and responsive with any needs you might have! His grandma even baked cake for us and we received a little goodbye presents. The hospitality here is just amazing and they really thought of everything - there is a washing machine, first aid kits, books and magazines, enough closet space, very comfortable beds and everything was super clean. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet and luxurious stay in Kreta!!

We absolutely loved the house. It's located 15 meters from the beach, included everything we needed in terms of utilities. Our host, Andrew, was very welcoming, answered all our questions and helped with arrangement of a boat trip. Welcoming gifts and homemade cakes were amazing! :) Kalamaki village is a great place for family vacation

SwitzerlandLocation is perfect for a relaxing holiday, one can sleep with open windows and hear the sea but nothing else. Great tavernas and beach in very short walking distance. Good location to explore the sights nearby, Matala, Phaistos, etc. Apartment is beautifully designed and very well equipped, having great panoramic view to the sea and mountains. I got a very warm welcome by the host, thanks Andrew! Welcome gifts and local home made specialities also made my stay amazing in Kalamaki.

GermanyEverything was perfect
We loved staying at the Melissa Suite in Tarsia. The studio was designed with much love for detail and beautiful calming design featuring a comfy bed and the fully equipped kitchen. The location is beautiful, second row from the beach and in the quieter part of Kalamaki, which makes it a perfect romantic getaway. The hospitality of the family running Tarsia is just overwhelming. They were super helpful with all our questions and brought self made cakes, cookies and grapes every other day, which is such a nice gesture. At our check out day, since our suite was already booked, we were allowed to use the outdoor area of the downstairs suite including the outdoor pool, which was super comfortable for us while waiting for our taxi pickup. We will definitely come back once we’re in Crete! Thank you for the most wonderful stay!

IsraelHave only good words.
A very high quality spacious apartment just on the beachfront of Kalamaki, everything is new and clean with a very good taste. A really luxury apartment in very reasonable price. Andrew was lovely and super helpful ❤️. Kalamaki is amazing, so quite and relaxed, beautiful beach and sunsets, with the best restaurants. We are a couple with a toddler and it was perfect, had such a good time. Highly recommend.

United KingdomIt was ever so slightly windy on the day we arrived - this is uncontrollable, but thinking of things we didn't like was hard. A kettle would have been useful for us Brits but otherwise all good. When we booked on booking.com we didn't quite realise that there were four separate units - we jut judged by the pictures, we should have read more closely and realised what we had booked (it was still good, don't worry!!) - I recommend the Tarisa website which makes it much clearer than Booking.com does.
I stayed with two friends in the Roseta apartment. Andrew met us with the keys even though our flight had been delayed which was very kind. The rooms were large and the living area was well sized. Although we didn't use the outside area much due to it being shaded and we wanted to be in the sun, it was excellent - a very comfy hammock, outdoor cooking area and large seating area. Definitely more room than the three of us needed - which is always nice. The kitchen had all the appliances you could need (apart from a Kettle-we just boiled water). The best thing - literally a 1-2 minutes walk away from the beach and the sea which was amazing! We were kindly provided beat towels which was a real plus. We did hire a car to check out other local places and there was a safe parking area with an electric gate which gave us peace of mind. Andrew was very helpful, always ready to give recommendations and help us if needed. He kindly provided us with Raki, olive oil and baked goods from his grandmother which was a lovely touch. Being from the UK and following certain covid requirements we found Andrew more than willing to help in everyday. We had a great time at Roseta! The Kalamki area was very quiet and relaxing with a variety of similar restaurants along the front - we went to three and found that the Delphine (recommended by Andrew) and Grigos were the best. We were about a 15 mins drive from the closet 'big' supermarket where we bought lunch and water. But there was a smaller supermarket about a 10 min walk along the front in the centre of Kalamaki village - we would get essentials and croissants there - yum. We did hire a car and found that useful to visit Matala (good beach and caves are worth a wonder) and had supper at Scala which was nice - it's a bit bigger/buzzier there.

United KingdomWe stayed here for 5 days to end our honeymoon. We were greeted by Andrew who couldn’t do enough for us and made it clear he was available 24/7 throughout our stay. The property was out of this world and on arrival we were greeted with a floating tray in the pool with wine, chocolates, flowers and inside a hamper of Greek produce, oil, Raki, olives, honey etc aswel as water and juice. A really nice touch. We stayed in the ‘Ampelos’ suite which had its own pool. Kalamaki is a lovely little town with a few little shops, a mini market and about 12 restaurants. You may need to rent a car to get around but as we had our own pool we didn’t plan on venturing far out anyway. We will definitely be returning. Thankyou Andrew for a lovely stay
