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.).

AustraliaNo TV in bedroom. Only single chairs in lounge area. A long couch in lounge area would have been more comfortable. A shame the bar grill across the road shut at 5.00 pm. Even 6.00 pm would have been better.
The location is excellent. So close to the beach. Compact and comfortable.

AustraliaThe bungalows give a beautiful view of the ocean but are very close together which affects privacy especially when sitting on the front deck.
The breakfast nearby at Ellis Beach Bar and Grill was very nice. The bungalow we stayed in accommodated our needs and was nice and close to the beachfront.

Australia2nd bedroom is too small for adults. Cutlery, glassware and chinaware were below par. In fact ordinary. Only minimal kitchenware. TV was tiny. The builtin furniture ie vanity in bathroom, is very outdated and dilapidated. Floorboards were bouncy and not very stable. The exterior definitely needs an update.
Location was excellent. Close to Cairns. Right on the beachfront. Very clean. Lots of hot water. Very shady. Grounds were immaculate.

AustraliaAlthough we knew it was far from palm cove - ie a 50 min walk there is no safe way to walk there with the exception of a busy quite dangerous road. Maybe it was our naivety of the local area but really you need a car or have to pay for taxis as there is no other way of getting there. Also the bungalow is clean but very dated and for a cleaning service or clean towels you have to pay extra. The place can get very sandy very quickly so just be warned
Location is amazing and we had a beach side bungalow. The beach is beautiful and clean and can keep in the shade underneath the palm trees. The bungalow itself is clean with very basic amenities (although in line with what you would expect)

AustraliaMarch flies, it was bad timing. The little buggars were relentless. The only way we could sit outside is spraying extra strength tropical sticky insect repellent. They aren't around for long, apparently only 2 weeks. Bad timing for us. But to be honest, it was still worth it, to sit outside and look at that view.
The views, it felt like we were staying on an island in Hawaii. Rain forest behind us, beach in front. The sunrise absolutely stunning.

AustraliaThe cabin is a bit dated and while it was comfortable and all necessities provided the TV was very small and the A/C cooled the bedroom but not the whole Cabin.
The location of the Bungalow was excellent. Right on the beach (which was an excellent beach) and easy access to the Atherton Tablelands and north to the Daintree. We had a couple of issues early and the "fix-it" guys were very prompt a helpful. Mostly it was as quiet as we hoped for.
