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.).

Australiaa restaurant or food service cafe for people when they check in. It was a 15 minute drive back to the local supermarket and we did not know we could not order food or relax and have an afternoon cocktail as everything at the resort was shut until 6pm. So if you have children or driven a long way, come in on a flight it would have been good to know or have the restaurant/cafe open onsite.
location and ease of booking. made to feel very welcome : ) definitely book to stay here again!

New ZealandA lot of stains on the floor and marks on the wall, appliances were nice to have and functional but tired; the drier made alarming noises after it had been on for a while and left a lot of fluff on clothes. Couches were a little low and not as comfy as they looked but fancier than the standard apartments (same with the beds). Pillows could be better. All in all, a nice feel and ready to use, just a bit tired.
Beautiful location; right on the lake, easy check in, the chalet had everything we needed for a great stay. The chalet was warm and comfortable, nice couches and good TV, stereo, etc. Fully equipped to come to Rotorua and start living like you're at home.

AustraliaI would be wary with very young toddlers that you are surrounded by water and would just have to be a bit more vigilant if letting them roam outside, (from the photos maybe some of them have a fenced backyard?) ours didn’t which was great for us as we could enjoy the views of the ducks on the channel out our back door.
A cosy comfortable place to return to after a day of exploring. The units are spacious and well equipped with everything you need. Kitchen great for cooking, washer and dryer upstairs. Beds were very comfortable with lovely soft extra blankets if we got cold (but even on the cold mornings the interior was not very cold). We travelled in may, which we found to be a beautiful quiet time to see the area, with blue skies everyday. But as it was cold we didn’t get to make use of as much of the wonderful outdoor facilities (and we were to busy with all the amazing things to do in the area). The spa was lovely though, sitting watching the palm trees by the lake it felt like a tropical paradise. We had one dinner in the restaurant which was great value, so convenient to have a great dinner and walk back to our unit. The food was fantastic, with a home cooked cosy feel. Thanks so much for a great stay! Best value for families and groups I could find in the area.

New ZealandThe stairs?
It was situated 30mins from Te Puke. Nice to have a breakaway for a few days. The 2 story Villa was lovely, right by the waterway. The reception lady was lovely n helpful. The restaurant had lovely food. We decided to pay a delivery fee to eat in our room the 1st night, being May it was a cold, cold night. The Cheeseboard n Deep Fried King Prawns were 'to die for'. Yum... The Spa Pool was occupied, so we didn't get to try it. The only regret (on my part) was not booking the 3 bedroom Villa, so my friend (with walking problems) didn't have to climb the steep stairs every time she needed to use the bathroom. The 3 bedroom Villa has a bedroom downstairs (with toilet, I hope) 🤔... Overall, an 8.5 / 10

Everything. Just a pity we never made full use of the facilities as our son ended up going to A & E from cycling only 2 hours after arriving. But will bring the boat next time.
