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.).

Cute little camper (which I don't think was made clear on the Booking.com website), but suited our needs. Was clean and easy to find. Outdoor shower very cool feature.

CanadaThe lake front domes were very close together and the dome beside ours the clear part was directed at our outside sitting area so you felt watched all the time. Dome 1 outside area was very slopped so sitting at the picnic table or on chairs was interesting. Every so often there was a septic smell that you couldn’t ignore.
The lake and view were amazing- kayaking was awesome. Truly a little piece of heaven- thankful that the owners choose to share with the public.

CanadaThe beach and dock was right in front of another guests dome and it made me feel like I was intruding on their privacy so I didn’t want to spend too much time there. The domes are also quite close to one another so even with the open window, I found we kept it closed most of the time for privacy.
The hosts were great. They had camp chairs and roasters readily available for guests.

CanadaNot much privacy as the domes are very close together but we knew this before booking. Not sure what was going on with the dock but it didnt look safe. It was partially submerged and was crooked. Rental of the kayaks was pricey so opted not to. It would be nice to have marked and designated common area (like a deck) with some seating at the lakeshore. The firewood was wet.
Perfect location for our Cabot Trail adventure. The dome was clean and comfortable. Very friendly staff. Nice and quiet. The nearby South Harbour beach is spectacular. Easy walk from the roadside.

CanadaThe only thing I would say is that the finishing aren’t quite there for the price point. The overall vibe for clamping was great but at over $250/night I would hope for the trim around the domes to not have crumbling cement and a nicer kitchen set up. Overall I would stay again.
Nice location with great waterfront and access to kayaking and canoeing etc. Domes are super cute and unique.

United StatesThey provided mugs and a French press, but I guess you have to bring your own coffee. Everything else was what we expected and really no complaints.
Fun option. Decent beds, bathroom in the dome, shower head was good. Had a little sink and counter too for cleaning up dishes. They have wood to buy, and you can borrow camping chairs. Picnic tables were in great shape. The zip line for kids was right next to us so that worked out well.

GermanyAs the resort offers no food (there is a barbecue in front of every tent) a few utensils (perhaps a microwave and some cups and plates) would be nice. Otherwise one uses too much oneway plastic cups.
Blue Bayou offers only accommodation (we knew that). A small restaurant and a shop (where you can get breakfast and fresh coffee) is about a 10 min drive away. Location bank at the shore was phantastic.

United StatesThere is no stove inside the domes so you are still camping in that sense. I kept forgetting that we had a bathroom and shower.
When you first drive up, you're not sure what to think. It's a bunch of geo bubbles dotting the woods. When you open the door to your dome, you are pleasantly surprised with your room. Nice bed, decent shower. And, when you walk down to the lake and your smile becomes permanent. They have kayaks, canoes, paddle boards there to use whenever you want. Great place for the family. The owner is very friendly and attentive and fun to talk with. The sunsets over the lake were amazing and it was very cool to lay in your bed at night and stare through the roof at the stars. Close to everything you want to see.

CanadaCurrently there are no restaurants or stores close to eat or grab a few things. So make sure you do that before you come. Or a 5 to 10 minute drive will get you to a resturtant.
This place is a beautiful find. So close to the water and unique dome structures, just one of the options you can chose for staying in here. Stephan is the person who takes care of everything on the property. If you have an issue with anything or just want some knowledge like where to eat in the local area, he is always happy to help. Check out the stars at night over the bay, so many of them to see!

CanadaNothing major to complain about. The kitchen faucet was loose. The toilet paper holder was loose, causing the toilet paper to slide onto the toilet room floor. The spatula fell apart, and the number and quality of utensils could be better.
Our room (I think it is called the boogie something) was an old re-furbished small travel trailer with an outdoor (covered) kitchen, shower, and bathroom. It was very clean, and the hot water was instantaneous and hot! It was good, basic shelter that allowed our dogs.
