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.).

New ZealandThe fridge was not plumbed for water. Not a biggie
Location is brilliant. Right next to the Opua car ferry which provides a bit of movement and interest as the ferries come and go. All rooms were spacious. Kitchen had everything you could need. Bathroom was lovely with spacious shower and underfloor heating. Beds very comfy and cosy. We even caught a few fish from the deck. A bonus for us was the Allpress coffee from the nearby General Store

AustraliaIf you wanted eternal peace and serenity, this is probably not the place to stay. Opua is a working port and the unit is directly beside the car ferry. We loved this aspect (but others may not) - it provided endless entertainment watching the comings and goings but the ferry makes noise (7am-10pm). It all depends on your tastes….
Beautifully situated over the water at Opua, the veranda views are unsurpassed. Our hosts were fantastic and very accommodating. They have considered every need in setting up the unit. The sounds of water lapping under foot lull you to sleep.

New ZealandWe had to leave.
Everything was great. My husband had an accident over 3 years ago which left him with a brain injury. Staying here was a great rehabilitation for him for all of us. A big thank you to Chris and John.

New ZealandThe property was good but would have preferred it but further distance from the ferry service as it seemed to running every few minutes and noisy also did not feel very private as when you sit on deck people kept looking.
I liked the spaciousness and cleanliness

AustraliaReally close to the ferry, ok during the day just took a bit of getting used to with it running until 10pm, I didn’t realise it was quite so close.
Pretty much everything.

United KingdomThe property is directly adjacent to where the vehicle ferry pulls in. This was not an issue for us, but might be for anyone looking for something maybe romantic or very peaceful. It is a short drive from Paihia.
This apartment is as good as the pictures make it look. Excellent setting, space and facilities. The open plan kitchen feels amazing to be in and rhe front balcony over the water is gorgeous.

AustraliaBathroom floor flooded a little with shower on full. Avoidable with lower shower pressure Ferry activity next to apartment created a little noise but not too bad Foot noise from apartment above could be heard below.
Lovely view over the water. Felt a little like being on a boat- large front deck and low ceilings. Ample space.

The location was amazing and we loved sitting out on the deck eating and relaxing. The property had everything we needed and was beautiful and comfortable. The little extras and kitchen supplies went above and beyond. We came from Australia for a few days, didn’t want to leave and are already planning another stay and longer visit to the beautiful Bay of Islands again.

Great location, even the ferry next door wasn't a bother. Bedrooms nice and big, bathroom was a great size, with heated floor. The kitchen, dining and lounge were all a good size with great views over the water. Even fishing rods, although we didn't use them. I would definatly stay here again. Highly recommended
