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.).

South AfricaIt would have been nice if there was block out blinds in the unit. We also could have used a drying rack for the wet towels and clothes after swimming. The trapdoor in the bathroom is easily ajar if there is a lot of wind and then slams shut as the windblows
Location was perfect with a beautiful view of the ocean. The code for the lock box for the key was send to us and was very easy to access. There is undercover parking and a swimming pool in the complex. We also enjoyed talking long walks on the boardwalk. There is a lot of restaurants within walking distance.

South AfricaIt is a perfect home away from home with an exceptional view. Watching the sun rise from the balcony is a must! I also loved the fact that the owner, Bash, was always in constant contact with me with regards to check in details to put our mind at ease as we travelled from a far distance. We will definitely be back here.

South AfricaWhat absolutely stunning views of the ocean. The place was really clean and comfortable, it was super to have everything so conveniently placed. Pools were great to cool down in, and the local restaurants are so close that you dont really need a car. The host was also great and communicated very well.

South AfricaThe weather....was hoping for bright, sunny days. :-)
From the time that the booking was made, until the time we had to check-out, Bash was with us every step of the way which made things so easy. Regularly checking if everything was in order and made an extra to effort to accommodate a last minute request. Facilities and location of unit and resort, were excellent. View from balcony is breathtaking. Would definitely book there again.

South AfricaMy personal preference would have been a French press coffee maker or facilities for making filter coffee but there was instant coffee, tea etc. available so this is not really a complaint.
Very nice ocean views and the flat was decorated in a neutral way that I enjoyed. I felt safe staying here on my own for a couple of nights after Comrades Marathon, the security staff were incredibly friendly. It was easy to get food from the restaurants/cafes/petrol station shop right outside the gate (I walked there after dark, seemed ok) but note that there is a very steep hill from the gate to the building, which I think was good for my marathon recovery but could be a bit challenging. There is a lift inside the building. The location is great because it's beautiful, calm, safe and not far from the airport. It is a bit "far" from Durban but I had no problems getting Ubers.
