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.).

AustraliaWashing machine and dryer weren't there for use (as advertised) - not the end of the world but would have been handy. Very light at night - streetlights.
Brilliant location, laid back beach shack vibe.

United Kingdomcould of provided rubbish bags. Even just one so that we didn’t have to buy them separately but that’s really it. the bach was clean but was clean to a family bach standard not a commercial standard so set expectations to this . We also had to clean the outside of the lounge windows because they were filthy. still loved our experience there though.
lovely homely bach . really felt like we were staying at a family friends . Had everything you could ever require there. Great location and a nice plot of land. there was a hammock onsite which i couldn’t find anywhere to hang which was a shame . i probably missed the obvious location though!

New ZealandSome light bulbs need replacing, cleaning under the second bedroom bed. For little kids a front gate at top of stairs? None of these are a big deal, just a note really.

CanadaWe like it just the way it is. If you want a fabulous beach and a place to rest and relax, this is the place for you.
We stayed here in 2019 and were so pleased we could stay again. It's very close to the beach, just a couple of minutes' walk down the path to the water. It feels like our old childhood cottages in Canada. There is everything you could possibly need and more. The kitchen is well-stocked and well-equipped. It's just a few minutes to Dargaville which has grocery and liquor stores, a pharmacy, shopping and many restaurants and cafes. Sharkey's, just up the road, serves meals (also take away) and drinks and has great ice cream, as well as a small selection of groceries and souvenirs. It's a very popular place. Part of the charm for us was the lack of wifi, although there was a newer TV. Getting away from the rat race is what we looked forward to. The fresh air, hearing the waves at night and a super comfortable bed gave us the rest and relaxation we needed after nearly 5 weeks on the road. The weather wasn't good enough for us to use the lovely deck or barbecue, but we could enjoy the beautiful view from the living-dining area and the master bedroom. It felt like home.

New ZealandA real Kiwi bach with charm, a beautiful outlook and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lovely to fall to sleep with the waves crashing on the beach below. Great beds, quality linen and beach or tree views from every room. Couldn’t have wished for a better location - a quiet cul-de-sac with a short walk down to a glorious wide sandy beach. Could have stayed a week or a lifetime!

New ZealandIt was a cute tidy bach, perfect location right next to the beach. We spent 3 days in Dargaville for business and so coming 'home' to the bach after a long hard day was just what the doctor ordered. With just basic TV and no internet connection it meant we had to revert to old fashioned conversation, crosswords and board games, a thing lost in todays world of technology - so it was awesome.
