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.).

Fantastic location, just a short walk to 4 mile beach and the town centre. Ann was the perfect host, gave us all the information we needed, rescued us when we locked ourselves on the balcony ;). Apartment had everything we needed for a fantastic stay - we will be back. Also perfectly located for the marina. If you need a base where you can explore along the Captain Cook Highway and combine that with a day or two by the pool - this place is perfect. Even has free onsite parking & a laundry room. We made good use of the on-site BBQ and kept salad and drinks in the well equipped kitchen.

Excellent place to stay when you're in Pt Douglas. The apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped with a beautiful view of the pool/garden. The pool itself is beautiful and well kept. Anne was an amazing host, welcoming and friendly with a vast knowledge of the local area including day trips and places for food/coffee etc. We look forward to our next stay with Anne and Jason at Freestyle 🦋

It wasn't clear how the washing machines worked and then it did not do a particularly good job. But this was a minor frustration.
The resort accommodation provided free parking and was within comfortable walking distance from both the beach and the township. The hotel/motel had a nice swimming pool and smaller spa which was ideal as it can be risky swimming in the ocean, particularly during the stinger (jellyfish) season. The room were spacious with a large bedroom and ensuite and large dining/ sitting room. We also had a small outdoor deck facing the pool. A very relaxing and reasonably priced place to stay.

This is a fantastic place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Anne the host went out of her way to make sure we had a great time. It's a perfect distance to the main drag to walk too, only about 1 km there. Pool was heated to a perfect temp for us Victorians. Rooms were large and comfortable. We loved it
