How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Very attentive host. Well-appointed, comfortable rooms, peaceful garden and surroundings. Also, in my opinion, one of the best locations on Samui.

Nothing. If we come to Koh Samui once more, it would be a pleasure for us to stay here again.
This is a place where you can really find peace and relaxation. No loud music outside or from guests. The owner, Thomas, contributes significantly to this. He is very helpful in every situation. He is always friendly and fulfills all of his guests' wishes. I have great confidence in him. The facility is beautiful, plenty of green and neat, The rooms are bright, clean and welcoming. The terrace is very spacious and invites you to linger. The swimming pool is very nice for people who like swimming and being active

Felt more like a ‘luxury camping’ than a hotel. An ‘official’ reception instead of 2 shirtless guys, and a city map would already improve a lot. The loose approach could also been seen as a positive point, depending on what you expect 😊
Own bungalow with a hottub outside Very enthusiastic host willing to help each time (extra coffee, rent a bike, …) Good price for what you get

Everything was great, staff was very helpfull. There is a pool in which we were mostly because we did not like the beach on this side of the island. Beds were very comfortable and it was quiet so we had a very good rest. Jacuzzi is also great!

We liked everything :)
Perfect for families :) We loved our stay at the Moon Cottage. The private garden and jacuzzi are all lovely, as was the swimming pool. The place is clean, convenient and close to a nice beach, as well as a good choice of restaurants. A kettle, toaster, fridge and microwave are all provided and there’s a convenience store and pharmacist about five mins walk down the main road. The owner is remarkably kind, helpful and accommodating. He speaks English, French Spanish and Portuguese and his wife speaks Thai and English, so you’re pretty much covered! Highly recommended :)

The tile floor in the room is loose due to water damage. The shower has some flaws in the way the tiles are placed so the whole bathroom got wet. There was a leakage in the water spout next to the toilet. The yard is not as nice as in the pictures.
Spacious room with a good bed. The host was very nice, provided quick service and offered good help.

Generally felt in need of some TLC. Our terrace was damaged, the jacuzzi needed a proper clean (had murky water), and other areas could be updated. Everything was fine, but just effected the value for money compared to other properties in the area.
We had a great welcome to the property with a taxi organised to pick us up from the airport. The room was clean and comfortable, with air conditioning, hot water and our own garden area. The pool area was nice, and Alex was on hand to help with advise and recommendations.

The toilet was in a cupboard but there was a massive bathroom that was well decorated with plenty of room for a toilet not an issue just obscure but maybe that’s just me being ignorant can’t fault this accommodation at all to be honest
Beds were comfortable, host was great help with good suggestions, bathroom was nice and television had Netflix location was fairly close to chewang and was next to the airport which suited us (not so close that you can hear the planes) we hired a scooter and think without it it may have been a slight problem

Perfectly located in a quiet part of the island but not too far away from amenities. Tranquil at night and just a short 5 minute walk or less on a scooter to the beach. A good selection of restaurants and a couple of bars nearby make it a great place to stay. Rooms are perfectly sized, we'll equipped and exceptionally clean. Beds are super comfortable with a decent sprung mattress. Excellent value for money.
