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.).

This is my second time here with my father and once again perfect for our needs. The location is great and I can highly recommend Sugglers in Birchington for a really nice meal. The hosts of The Good Ship Lollipop make sure all is very clean and welcoming. It's so great that I do believe I've just booked my third visit. Off season it is a quiet holiday park and with being very near to the entrance it is very handy for the swimming pool just across the road and also just eats 😉

The perfect accommodation for myself and my elderly father and we could not resist staying at The Good Ship Lollipop. With rooms and bathrooms at each end, we could have our privacy and meet in the middle. Clean and modern and spacious environment. If you are travelling with a young family it is perfect as it is close to the entrance and swimming pool which has a great flume and other activities. If you are just looking for a quiet holiday out of season, it's a perfect location with plenty of good restaurants and sight seeing to do jn the local area. We are looking forward to our return trip later in the year.

United KingdomCan’t fault it. Was perfect.
It’s in a great location on the site. Very clean and modern. The caravan has a great layout, very well equipped. One of the nicest we have stayed in. Great out side decking and seating area, with lighting for the evenings. The hosts are lovely and made us feel very welcome. The little personal touches were really nice and thoughtful, which made it feel homely. Would definitely recommend, and would definitely rebook.

United KingdomThe prices for on site activities were a little expensive. We would have liked to have gone swimming on the odd occasion rather then have to pay for day passes even though they covered all activities which we were not interested in doing ourselves.
The caravan provided everything we needed. It was welcoming very clean and comfortable and I was able to park outside so could see my car at all times. We would consider visiting again in the future.

United KingdomWe stayed as family of 5 with 3 children. It's well size park. Caravan was large, very clean and modern; smart TV, Wi-Fi, heating, terrace, etc. Very good communication with owners. Comfortable beds and sofa. Two showers and toilets. All staff at the park was very friendly and helpful. We payed for our passes £110 for family of 5 for 4 days. It included swimming pool, night entertainment and some activities for children. There is small shop and arcade. Average venue and bar. Food just a little overpriced and nothing great. Very nice bar staff. Not great entertainment and activities for children. For some activities you have to pay extra. Pool you have to book in advance. There is one water slide there which is open for about 20 minutes during every 45 minute session. Water was clean and warm. Pool staff very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed it a lot. There is play a area for children and crazy golf at the back of bar. Park is located only few minutes drive from Margate. We paid damage deposit to owners of caravan which was returned very quickly. Very recommended!
