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...).

SwedenA bit far from the old town of Albufeira but its easy to take cabs back and forth. It is however very close to two nice beaches, including the gorgeous Falesia beach (5 min walk). The apartment was huge and cleaned daily. The internet speed was great for both of us to work from there during the week and our jobs demand good connectivity.

We really enjoyed the Aqua Mar! José and the staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The apartments were spacious, very clean and comfortable and well equipped for self catering. It was so peaceful and relaxing there with a lovely pool area and cafe. Its walking distance to several lovely beaches and not too far to Albufeira and Villamoura. Shops and restaurants nearby. Thanks so much also for the gift that was so kind 😊.

Really made my family feel at home. It’s the first time in many years that I have had such a relaxing stay somewhere. The entire team in aqua mar are exceptionally good at their jobs. So many little touches that made our stay perfect.Apartment was the superior with pool view and sea view which had two balconies. Really clean and comfy. Nice view doing the dishes :) The location is great. Mini-marts and a big supermarket in walking distance. The beach and atmosphere in Olhos de Água is very chilled. Sun-loungers on the beach only €5 for half the day and it’s very accessible. Lots of ice cream shops and places to eat in every price range both down towards the seafront and up on the main road towards Albufeira. And of course the lovely pool restaurant in Aqua Mar. Breakfast was lovely and good coffee. Thanks Maria! If you want to feel genuinely rested after your Algarve holiday, Aqua Mar is the place to go. We had a great family holiday but I would also think it’s a great place for solo travellers or couples/groups looking for a rest in the sun.

United KingdomThe property was amazing for its value! we only payed £800 for 8 nights for two and it was so clean and nice, the staff were amazing to us, the location was good (not as loud as central Albufeira would be, but reachable by Ubers). Paula was lovely and we’re looking forward to seeing her again next year:))

PortugalThe room has everything you may need and even more. Actually, it's difficult to call it room, it's an apartment. Bedroom, living room, kitchen (as a separate room), hall, balcony. Kitchen has everything you need: appliances (fridge, cooker, over, microwave), pans, pots, plates, cutleries, ... In the yard you can find three pools (two adult and one for children) and a lot of space to have a rest. There is a snack bar that works during the whole day and American pool billiard.

United KingdomNot much really. Just a minor issue. It would have been nice to have had somewhere to put the shampoo and soap in the shower rather than the floor. A wall shelf would have been nice.
Excellent location. Room was above expectations. Large lounge, large comfortable bedroom. Enormous bathroom with twin basins, bath and shower. Two balconies, one overlooking the swimming pool.

Irelandjust I chose the wrong apartment .. would need the pool view if staying again .
the location was very close to lovely restaurants and a short stroll down hill to the beach . the apartment was large and well equipped. if I were to stay again I would book the apartment overlooking the pool as the one we had was overlooking the carpark so was a little dark . the pool area was great , two lovely pools with a lovely snack bar . Fab breakfast for €6 . best fried eggs ever !!

United KingdomNoisy cocktail bar over the road. Open till 2am most nights. ( not the hotels fault ) if you have room with pool view this won't be a problem.
The apartment was very well appointed with fully fitted kitchen and spacious bedroom and living area. Air con was excellent. Bath and shower were well fitted out with complimentary soap gel if needed. Flat screen tv was a bonus for catching up on news. Wi-Fi is free and great signal. Good surrounding area with lots of restaurants and bars are nearby. The complex has a laid back and relaxing atmosphere with a good mix of pleasant guests...definitely will return

The Aqua Mar- Moon Dreams is a lovely apartment complex. The room was large with great facilities. We had a pool view and would recommend same. The room was cleaned daily. There was shower gel and shampoo supplied and also a welcome pack in the kitchen with sponge and washing up liquid. The beds were extremely comfortable. The pools are very nice. It is very close to many restaurants and bars. The reception staff Paula and Jose were so helpful and accommodating.
