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.).

AustraliaWish we stayed longer to enjoy the facilities!
We checked in late evening and the code box to retrieve keys was a breeze (easy email instructions). Blown away with the glamping tent - so spacious, clean and with all the facilities you require & pet friendly. The staff were super friendly and helpful. They have a securely fenced dog park to run the dog. Beautiful beach walking distance away and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast and strong coffee to continue our trip to Brisbane. Highly recommend!

AustraliaRequested a late check-out, never got a response so rang the property manager in the morning to be told it was not possible, and would get charged if we stayed later so rushed to pack up, only to have the cleaner tell us we didn’t need to rush at all (note: resort was prob only 10% booked as it was during off season so it’s not like someone else was waiting for our accom anyways!) Very confusing instructions on how to get keys- actually listed to get in the wrong area! Also something that is out of resorts control but important if taking pets- resort is pet friendly (if booked correct accom) however can’t take dogs on the beach, so have to leave in tent or go to another beach
Accom was amazing even in the cold weather. It was super cosy! Would love to come back in warmer weather! Literally meters away from beach

AustraliaYou would have to get on to a ferry to reach the area.
The tent is exceptionally setup with modern kitchen and bathroom! plus a dishwasher which is really great if you’re staying for a few days with family! This place is especially perfect if you’re after a no fuss-camping out feel in the nature by the beach!

AustraliaThe flyscreen door kept jamming, the bathroom barn door kept rolling open. The bathroom was a little small. The lighting in the kitchen was not sufficient the rest of the room was ok though. We haven't visited in 8 years but nothing new had been done other then accommodation added. There was not any extra play areas for the kids other then a little play ground, the pool or expensive trikes to hire. The cafe had not been updated, you used to be able to have a restaurant meal here. BBV sent so many messages via booking.com especially trying to sell expensive hampers.
The luxury safari tent was amazing, we had stayed in one elsewhere and this was 10x better. The beds and room was conformable. The varandah BBQ was fantastic. The room was very spacious. Kids liked the pool. Location to the beach is great. Tent was very comfortable even in wind and rain.

AustraliaI had really wanted to book a glamping tent and that is what was shown on the website I booked on - Bookings .com. So I was dissappointed to find I was getting a cabin. But the cabin was nice and new so I was happy in the end. Will try the tent idea another time!
Beach access. Cabin was very quiet.
