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 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):
- 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.).

Cherelle said she might update some of the property/kitchenette soon which will be lovely to see but there were definitely no complaints from us.
Property was romantic, comfortable and amazingly well resourced. We used the tv to watch movies at night, the sandwich press for snacks, the coffee machine and the bbq outside for dinner; and essentials like oil, herbs, plates, mugs etc. were provided. The property was the perfect size and the interior design was beautiful, felt much bigger for the space it was and despite being on the owners property, felt very private, secluded and peaceful. The owner, Cherelle, was very welcoming and laidback. She clearly puts a lot of care into the property and we would definitely return in the future.

Isolated
Cherelle was extremely kind and helpful as I didn't have a car, and it was tricky to get to and from the conference venue. She kindly gave me a lift to Cape Schank each day. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom was roomy, and the shower was good. The kitchen area was functional and cute with good coffee in gorgeous cups. It was perfect to be able to go for a walk on the beach just 5 minutes from my room and gear the sound of the ocean at night.

Position of bathroom hand basin relative to tap. When that's the only criticism you know things are pretty good!
Loved being able to hear the roar of the ocean and the quiet seclusion of the space and garden. Close proximity to Peninsula Hot Springs and short drive to Rye for dinner. The retreat was comfortable and had everything we needed. Great communication by host who also kindly provided breakfast for us on our last day when there was a power outage due to scheduled work by the power company.

We loved how thoughtful Cherelle was and the noticeable effort and small details that she put into preparing the retreat for us. The retreat is well stock with everything you may need for a getaway. We truly think this is one of the best places we have ever stayed at.

The grill or lack of cooking stove.
Wonderful and cozy place. Only thing I would say is that the grill was a little unclean, and needed replacement. Thank you for the stay!

Owning a larger vehicle was a little tricky to park under the carport and get down the driveway. Not so much a dislike just a side note for people with a large 4WD.
Very private and so close to the beach just a short walk. Close to Rye and some wonderful places to dine at.

Loved the how quiet, peaceful and relaxing our stay was here. Short drive from st Andrews brewery and Mornington Peninsula hot springs. Beach across the the road. Service was amazing, catered to all my partners dietary requirements 😁😁 and an excellent place stay to get away from it all.
