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 are 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 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):
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.
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.).

We really enjoyed our stay in Alkyon, Thasia and all the team, George, Christ and Georgina were incredible nice, we felt like in family at home, very nice host always looking after every little detail to make our stay really comfortable. Recommendations from them were always 100% good. We had free bikes to go around every day ,that was a plus, the swimming pool very nice, the island , the food and people amazing. We have no words to express our gratitude to Thasia and all the staff for being with us like our family. Definitely we will come back next year. I highly recommend this place if you want to enjoy a family and relax environment.

The hotel is in a quiet area. There is a small mini market and a bakers 5 minutes away and the bus stop for Lefkada town to Nidri is a few minutes walk (bus approximately every 90 minutes). Lovely.

DenmarkI’ve never had the level of service we received at the Alkyon in Lefkada in all my years of travel and stay at various hotels, airbnb’s, etc. This is by far the most amazing place and not just because of the location, property or amenities (which are also perfectly comfortable), but because the people who own, run and maintain the property are what make it the best place to stay in ALL of Lefkada. And the property speaks for itself; it’s lovely, clean, affordable and accessible to everything. Our stay exceeded all expectations. We had a very big apartment for a family of four with a toddler, who absolutely loved the pool and the sweetest treats from the people running the place. Every room was so clean, with soft details throughout, and the most beautiful wood detailed roof. It was spacious and so well kept. We felt at home throughout our entire stay, and that is the best feeling when you are far from home. Thank you for leaving us with the best first, and hopefully not the last impression. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Lefkada, you don’t need to look further. Book your stay here, you won’t regret it!

United KingdomFrom the moment we were greeted by Tasia, as we stepped out of the taxi, our holiday began. Smiling with open arms she sat us in reception, presented homemade pumpkin pie (yum) and showed us a map of the island, on which she had made suggestions as to where to visit. We were introduced to Georgia, whom I had exchanged emails with and who had arranged our taxi from the airport and our hire car, so nice to put a face to a name😀. Our room was lovely, looking out onto the pool and beautiful surrounding gardens. High spec bathroom with a great rainforest shower (hand shower also available) and a large comfy bed. Tasia had left drinks in the fridge on our arrival, and some snacks. Kitchen had everything we needed. Rooms cleaned every day with fresh towels and all surrounding areas are kept immaculately. The pool is wonderful, shower outside with plenty of sun beds and an outside shower block with toilet facilities. Tasia, Chris or Georgia are around all day not only to serve drinks/tea/coffee at the bar, but great to converse with and for restaurant suggestions and maybe what to do for the day. By the way, Chris makes The best Aperol Spritz 10\10 Beach is a 2 min walk away, plenty of excellent restaurants nearby to choose from, on the beach front or on the road. Everything is fresh and so delicious. Supermarkets nearby, Lefkada is a 10 min drive away ( bustling old town with plenty of bars and restaurants and shops), Nidri is a 15 min drive away, plenty of bars, shops and restaurants ferry connections and boat cruises. We completely understand why couples come back to stay at the Alkyon for maybe the 4th or 5th time, not only for it’s peaceful and tranquil surroundings but also, Tasia, Chris and Georgia are some of the most kindest, friendly, welcoming, accommodating people you will ever meet, nothing is too much for them, from booking taxis, organising your excursions, reserving tables at restaurants, Tasia’s home made yummy treats!

We were looking for an apartment in a small complex with a shared pool. We were a bit sceptical because the reviews were so good but it turns out they were accurate; the accommodation is lovely, the housekeeping is exemplary and the hospitality is warm without being overbearing. The location is very convenient with a local supermarket, bakery and four or five tavernas/restaurants within easy walking distance.

United KingdomThere is nothing that I would change - it’s perfection !
The location is fantastic - so tranquil & prettily done around the pool (lovely flowers etc). The rooms was exceptional but what really made it special are the lovely people. Dealing with them from the outset was a joy - they each made so much effort to ensure we enjoyed our stay. We travelled around the island & their recommendations were really helpful, but many days we stayed local or took bus trips in either direction. If you like walking or cycling there is plenty of that to do. Lots of nice eating places within walking distance too. Sheer bliss.

RomaniaThe only issue was the Internet connectivity, which was very very poor, we could barely load google maps to check for stuff to visit or use chat apps. We tried all the three available Wifis, at various times of day and every time it was slow. Coincidently, the phone signal was also poor and I could barely use even the phone internet, so not having a good WiFi connection gave us a bad experience.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and had welcomed us very nicely with pies and a short presentation of the main attractions and restaurants of the island. The room was great, had everything we needed and the bathroom was recently renovated and it was spacious and nice. Everything was very thoroughly cleaned and the pool area looked great, with lots of plants and trees very well maintained. The pool is large and very clean and is perfect for swimming or just relaxing in it. We found the location perfect for us. Very easy to reach from the main road, we had a minimarket at 2-3 minutes walking distance and a very nice area to take walks near the sea towards the restaurants.

United KingdomPrior to visiting we needed to arrange an airport transfer, Georgia and Chris we very helpful and arranged this for us. Anastasia and Georgia were waiting for us on arrival, they were both so helpful and we felt very welcome from beginning to end. Hiring a car was also extremely easy, arranged, collected and dropped off at apartment! Could have asked for better service. Our 2 year old son Alex was very well looked after by Anastasia with all the ice cream and croissants :) The room was immaculate, a cot was provided for Alex and we were very comfortable. We had a room looking out to the pool with a terrace, perfect for sitting and drinking wine on during nap times ;) It also allowed my wife to enjoy the pool without being far away. Turning right out of the apartments takes you on a very short walk to the beach, on the left is an area with free sun beds. The beach isn't sandy but this was fine for us, I would recommend getting beach shoes. Several restaurants are also a short 10-15 minute walk away, I remember our first lunch at Taverna Seven Islands with its good food and beautiful setting very fondly (photo attached). We also hired a car for a few days which was worth doing to try out a few other beaches. Thank you for having us Anastasia, Georgia and Chris. We'll be back!
