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...).

PortugalNice 2 bedroom apartment, with a fully equipped kitchen with all that you need. The surroundings are beautiful, the garden very well taken cared of. The main pool is very large and has 3 sections, and if that wouldn't be enough, there are 3 more extra locations with pool, one of them indoors. Easy to park, at least during May.

CanadaGreat location for hiking the cliffs & short walks to centre & beaches. However, Reception failed to provide apartment booked for first 2 nights in spite of arriving to check on reservation 4 days prior to the stay so had to deal with resort director to amicably resolve problem. She was very professional. Disappointing given reservation was made 7 months earlier but maintenance & housekeeping staff were very good responding to minor issues.

CanadaThere was quite a bit of construction/renovation going on, which was a bit noisy at times; but the work didn't start until 8 am. The apartment was dated; e.g. old but servable appliances in the kitchen, English instructions were missing. Several times the wall heaters stopped working. When we informed the front desk, they took details and problems were usually resolved in good time. After lightening hit the resort, power was off for a few hours, the TV stopped working, there was a problem procuring new parts, we heard. 3 days before we left, the TV was operating again. Decorations (framed pictures) were faded. The patio was not cleaned , and the barbeque metal grids were rusty and needed replaced.. Looks like the new owners are working on upgrading much of the large village resort!
The one bedroom Seaview apartment was spacious and well laid out, kitchen living/dining area main floor, bedroom/bathroom downstairs. We loved the view of the cliffs and ocean from the patio. We could see hikers navigating the walking paths. The grounds in the village resort are well maintained and lovely to walk around. the covered heated pool is a good addition ( we stayed here 17 years ago!) Cleaning /fresh towels were offered regularly. Staff at the office and the grounds were professional and friendly. We enjoyed the coffee shop for beverages, made our own breakfast at the apartment. The grocery store is great for basics, good opening hours. The restaurant O Farol was closed until first week of February. Before we left. we enjoyed a delicious seafood dinner.

United KingdomTV knocked out by electrical storm (no-ones fault). Some building work and maintenance noise - but we understand that winter would be the time to do this. Main restaurant was closed - again, January.
Very quiet due to the time of year. Great weather for January. The apartment had a log fire. Close enough to Carvoeiro village and the staff were helpful -very friendly. We really appreciated that they would speak English.
