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.).

United StatesWi-Fi was terrible! If strong, dependable Wi-Fi is important to you, best speak to the host prior to booking. Cabin was a bit darker than in the photos. Booked chalet #7 but was given chalet #6.
Well stocked kitchen. Had all the amenities we needed to cook all of our meals at home. Despite the cabins being next to one another, it felt very private. It was also very quiet. Lots of parking available. Within walking distance to Geoffrey Bay and Alma Bay. Ten minute drive to ferry terminal and Woolworths.

AustraliaThe onus is on the guest to leave the dishes clean (or pay a surcharge) so some of the dishes weren't washed properly. Fry pans had been abused and probably could do with being replaced. An outdoor clothes airer/line for each unit for stuff like wet swimwear would have been handy.
Spacious and comfortable. Close to bus. Laundry facilities available. Kitchen essentials like salt, pepper, oil, tea/coffee/sugar/milk pods/washing up stuff provided.

AustraliaDinner plates didn’t fit the dish washer but everything was provided for us to wash dishes by hand. A rangehood would be useful to avoid setting off fire alarm.
Clean, unit was close to swimming pool, loved the gardens and birdlife. Offered a serene, relaxing experience with nature.

CanadaIt was a bit more of a walk to the beaches then we expected. Especially on hot days with kids. Both of the beaches nearby are beautiful though. We are a family, so Arcadia was nice and quiet but if you are younger I would suggest Nelly or Horseshoe bay.
The actual place was very nice, a shaded pool was great for the kids. Our room was also right outside the pool. We arrived early from the ferry and they allowed us to leave our luggage while the room was being cleaned. Room was very spacious. We highly suggest going to the road races if you are here on a Wednesday. They are just down the street.

United KingdomThere were ants in the kitchen, but could’ve been due to location. Our wifi didn’t work for 2/3 of the days so maybe bare in mind as travellers if you have data or not!
The room was amazing, very spacious with big balcony and living area. Really clean, and in a great location (5 min walk to some wallabies and only 30 min walk to next bay).

AustraliaEverything was great! I wish it hadn't rained so much but you can't control the weather!!
Dandaloo Gardens provide very good value holiday villas in Arcadia on Magnetic Island. We had two villas and both had a main queen bed and a sofa bed. Each had a kitchen with a stove top, microwave, kettle, toaster and full size fridge. There was a dining table in each room. The beds were comfortable and the gardens were well kept and tropical. The pool was great and my kids enjoyed a swim. There was also a BBQ area but we didn't use that. Roxanne the host was friendly and helpful when we spoke to her and we could contact her by mobile if needed. Great for families and those who want to do some self-catering.
