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.).

AustraliaThat I was only there for 2 nights, wish i could have stayed longer...
What can I say, this was without doubt the nicest homestay place I've ever stayed. Looks even better in person than in the photos. The little touches the owner has put in to this space is exceptional. From the fresh frangipanis in the bathroom to the most awesome coffee table book and the light sensors in the corridors, everything seemed to have so much thought put into it. Definitely book in here for your stay in Port Lincoln, 100% you won't find anywhere better 👌

AustraliaNo freezer on the premises.
Amazing view! Great communication by the hosts. With easy access to the property. Even though they are staying on the property too, the apartment is sectioned off that it almost feels seperate from the main residence. Very clean and tidy, with a warm homely feel. Extra touches such as breakfast were lovely! Super comfy bed. Perfect driving distance from the centre of town to enjoy a very peaceful getaway! Would definitely go back!!

AustraliaOnly thing no freezer for the fish we caught, but Nicky accommodated us by allowing us to use one of theirs, which was a life saver as we didn't want to lose our king George whiting and garfish.
The views were amazing, the home spacious and tastefully decorated. Nicky provides an amazing selection for breakfasts. The bed and pillows were so comfortable . Would recommend zentala to anyone.

AustraliaThere was nothing to not like.
Absolutely everything! It's such a beautiful place with an incredible view. We loved being a few km away from the city centre. Our host was so helpful, friendly, l and very responsive to our messages and questions. We loved the gourmet breakfast provisions 😊. We would 100% recommend this property to anyone wanting a luxurious stay in Port Lincoln. We wished we could have stayed for more than 2 nights.

What’s not to love!! This was by far the most beautiful and luxurious stay I have experienced. My weekend felt so special thanks to Zentala, I was so eager to head back to this gorgeous property each time we headed out to adventure Port Lincoln & surrounding. The facilities were everything we needed & more. I truly appreciated the breakfast opportunity despite not using it all, and the bed/bedroom needs a special mention for giving that ‘I’m sleeping on a cloud in heaven’ feeling! The hosts have undeniably put so much time, effort and detail into this space to make every guest feel super spoilt and welcomed. There is just something so special about this place & I can’t wait to stay again. If you’re reading this review, let this be the one little push you need to book now and experience this dream for yourself! I promise you won’t want to go home x

AustraliaNo freezer. Also a little more crockery in the kitchen would be good.
Very quiet location with a beautiful outlook over the sea. The apartment is well set up with tasteful and comfortable furniture. The king size bed is also very comfortable. Also everything in the apartment worked well and we had no problems with faulty equipment. We very much enjoyed our stay in Port Lincoln and that was in large part due to the quality of our apartment at Zentala

The property was incredible! Extremely clean, amazing bed, items included for a breakfast, lovely quiet area, stunning views. Even with the owners at the property (seperate area) it was completely isolated and our own space. We even had a morning guest of the cutest pup ever!

AustraliaOnly real negative is the shower, I was a good 10 cm off being able to even touch the head to lift off and wash my hair. One on a sliding post would be much better
Absolutely wonderful, huge and even better than the photos if that is possible. Nikki was extra accomodating. Wonderful breakfast provisions. As well as lots of extras like condiments, sauces, mayo etc. Well equipped kitchen, even including scissors (but a new pair is needed, these are blunt!)papertowel would be good, especially as bacon provided. Not negatives but a few "this would be great " comments: Lights on the entry gateway would be good as we completely missed it in the evening light returning after dinner. Night light in bathroom, oil hinges on bathroom door (annoying at night) non slip mat in the shower. an umbrella for guests would be good, as just as we were about to head out on day one the rain came and our umbrellas were in our car. If only the blinds on the main window, with the view near the dining table, were the blockout type, to knock the glare of the sun but still allow the view, which is, after all the main reason to stay here. Robes? no-one was outside when we were there, but it meant changing into clothes from PJs 'just in case'. Would recommend staying here to anyone travelling to Port Lincoln .

AustraliaEntrance could have been lit to make it more obvious at night. The ducted heating was effective although problematise that it creates a suction/ vacuum when the living area door is closed, which needed to be due to sound etc.
Plenty of space and everything we needed

AustraliaA freezer, and a full cooktop for those who like to eat a home would make Zentala even better. Navigating the entry from the road with a low car was not easy. Quickly found that an angled entry and exit was best.
Ample breakfast supplied. More than enough for 2 of our 4 day stay. 5 kms out of Port Lincoln centre but this was not an issue. Easy drive of a few minutes for when we needed to go. Fantastic views to the ocean from the lounge room and balcony. All the rooms were very spacious. Helpful hosts.
