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 ZealandDue to the downpours of rain the steps to the cottage become slippery. I did have a fall not of anyone's fault but my own.(Not wearing correct footwear)I'm fine. Maybe just putting some extra grip(grates)so this won't happen. But loved our stay. 😊
Loved the location. Amazing communication from Liz and Ken. Their meet and greet was so warm and welcoming. Best host ive meet. So friendly and accommodating as our sons league game got cancelled due to bad weather and they were so helpful with allowing him to stay with us. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. Just like them. 🥰

New ZealandA very quiet calm location with a beautiful view of the harbour. Although the cottage was close to the main house, the hosts were very respectful of the space between us. They have a very friendly dog, who was no problem at all. Excellent hosts, excellent accommodation and excellent stay.

AustraliaI liked everything. Don’t choose if you want tv; it is more suited to nature-lovers.
On-site hosts Liz and Kenny were friendly and helpful without being at all intrusive. The cottage setting is so pretty that I think I could have happily sat on the balcony all day had they not recommended nearby beaches. I appreciated the plunger coffee and continental breakfast provisions left in the cottage. It was also really clean and fresh with a comfortable bed.

New ZealandI didn't like that it was right next to the owners house, so didn't feel private. The impression we got from the photos, was it would be very private.
Loved the friendly owners, the place was cute and had everything we needed, lovely breakfast left for us to help ourselves with beautiful fresh fruit etc. The views are super lovely and such a serene peaceful place to stay.

New ZealandMy partner and I assumed the cottage was the only building on the property as there were no photos of a larger house on the property. We did want a weekend away to isolate from everyone. The owners were lovely indeed, nevertheless we did want a getaway alone though. Also didn’t appreciate that there were no curtains in the kitchen (you have to walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom). Personally I like to wear no pants when I sleep, and it’s really uncomfortable when I have to go toilet where the large sliding door is completely open to view in (unfortunately I did not bring pants as I thought we would be alone). My partner and I totally didn’t notice there wasn’t a tv either when we booked, and it was definitely missed.
The owners were absolutely lovely and Tui was such a beautiful dog. I appreciated the food provided(although due to my dietary requirements I couldn’t have any). You also have the best view where the cottage is located.
