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 lodge exceeded our expectations. It was absolutely gorgeous, the beds were super comfy, the house was incredibly clean and tidy (despite the host being on crutches!). Super friendly host and gorgeous dog. We were able to bring our dogs which is always a bonus. Super easy access to the beach. The views are amazing, definitely recommend going down to the boulders and watching the sunset on a clear evening. We will definitely be back

United KingdomWanted to stay longer, only had one night as we had to be elsewhere next day. We really wanted to watch the ocean sunset from the hot tub.
Fantastic building that has been superbly renovated with style and sympathetic to creating a historic conversion. Exceptional location right on the wild west ocean, gorgeous ocean views from the end of the garden and the upper balcony Friendly and helpful host whom lives in adjacent property so available if needed. Huge property, well proportioned, lots of space and even a pool table in the second lounge. For a few extra dollars they will light a hot tub with ocean views or even try the sauna. This really was a magical little find in a very special area. Could not fault it in any way.

United KingdomCould do with new pillows on the bed but that's probably because I'm used to big pillows at home.
Loved to location and the beach view patio at the top of the garden. Simon was a great host and Guy was great at providing information and helping out. The property is very roomy and the upstairs living area is a treat! Bedrooms are large and bathrooms good. Tea/coffee, milk, Toast, cereals, etc, all provided. It is a way outside Westport so take what you need to eat for evenings with you. Had we have know the location was this good (on a great beach), we would have had more than one night. Just a great place. We also had a great not with the locals at the Lyric theatre watching an India meets Ireland fusion group. Not quite our cup of tea but non the less, great to be in with the locals. Lovely, friendly place.

GermanyWhat an awesome place to stay! The live version is even better than the fotos. I've extended my stay after the 1st night, opted for day trips to Karamea and Punakaiki so I could return here in the evening. Go for a swim, a stroll on the endless beach, enjoy the sunset - just soak this place in and try to stay more than 1 night. I hope to be back some day...

When you need a room on a beautiful lodge / house. The attention to detail was incredible. So if you just want a lovely night away right on the ocean, relaxing in the wood fired spa or feet up after the Old Ghost Road or Heaphy Track. Please dont pass bye this beautiful peaceful home. Simon and Guy are amazing landlords and their local knowledge invaluable. Thank you both for the best weekend...

Great beachfront location. Perfect place to watch the sunset. The house is very cool. Lots of different bedding configurations for friends & families sharing. Bring your own food to cook dinner as there are no restaurants nearby. The breakfast provided was excellent too. Love it.
