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.).

Highly recommend staying at this little place that lives up to its name as an Oasis. It is private, secluded, quiet & exceptionally clean. Perfect start to our honeymoon! Cheryl & Brian are fantastic hosts. We will definitely be back again

AustraliaThe Sheraton end of Port Douglas, so car is needed to make it easy. Less great second room for teenage kids - better suited for younger kids. Close to beach, but in Stinger season the safe netted area is at opposite end of beach.
Great tucked away spot that is really private with your own pool. Separate property and not part of any resort. Everything is provided, including kitchen basics which is great. Good ensuite shower room with master bedroom.

The pool was great and the property was in a great location, close to shops and just a short drive into Port Douglas. We were grateful for AC in the living room and each bedroom too.

One of our favourite ever stays. Beautiful , spacious home with a gorgeous private pool area. Kids were in heaven. Cheryl and Brian were lovely hosts and checked we were happy with everything and let us check in early - much appreciated. Spotless, full of thoughtful touches like freezer packs and a thermo bag to borrow for a picnic. Comfy beds, lovely and quiet. We’ve already recommended to a friend! Thanks for having us!

AustraliaNothing - this place was the best, great value.
Brian's place was completely spotless. I was happy letting my baby crawl all over the floor in the knowledge it was clean. There was everything we could need for our family of two children plus my mother in law. The pool area was absolutely fantastic! Enough space to chill, to have fun in the pool, and also for the children to play on the safe side of the pool fence. Couldn't rate this place and its owners more - we'll definitely be returning. We had a car so it was super easy to get about so I can't comment too much on location if you don't have one.

This property had everything you could want plus more. It was modern, spacious and the 2nd bedroom was ideal for my 20 year old daughter. We had our own ensuite, it was air conditioned and ceiling fans in every room. The pool was set in amongst luscious plants. Plenty of space to relax outdoors in in.
