Every place gets two scores: one from our team, who live here and visit in person, and one from the travellers who've been. Save what you like, compare side by side, or just ask.
Locals' score, out of 10Our team visits unannounced, pays the bill and scores four things that matter for that kind of place.
Travellers' rating, out of 5Every review is read by a person first. Crete Voyager bookings carry a Verified mark.
Paid placement, always labelledA business can pay to be featured. It can never pay to change a score.

A table card or receipt sticker with a code that opens the review form for that business. It's the cheapest way for owners to collect real reviews, and every scan brings a traveller to the site.
A small badge owners put on their own website and booking pages. It shows the live Locals' score and links back to the full review, so their visitors become your visitors.
House rule shown on every featured listing: paying for a feature buys visibility, not a better score. Locals' scores and traveller reviews are never edited for payment, and owners can reply to a review but never remove it.
