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.).

Location was safe and secure, very peaceful. Close to malls and restaurants. Everything we needed for a place to rest in-between attending to chores in Cape Town. Pleasant enough!

South AfricaWe don't have any complaints. But we would like to advise since future guests might not be as laid back: -The air conditioner in the two single bed room was not working. The other two airconditioners did work. -The spa bath in the bathroom had exposed wiring where the controls are and we did not feel comfortable using it due to electrical concerns. - Directly opposite the front door, hanging from the vines and vegetation was a hornet's nest. We avoided them but other guests might not be as observant and will get stung.
The location of the property was perfect for what we needed. The venue had a lot of amenities and it was very comfortable within the unit we booked. The staff onsite were very friendly and helpful and we felt well taken care of. The parking was secure and we had no concerns whilst we were at the property.

South AfricaWe were hoping to snuggle in and watch a movie before bed, there was no connection from the time we checked in till we left. No inverter’s available on the property. The bathroom gets wet and messy after your shower. Staff needs more training, the guy who helped us seemed sweet and eager to help but needs more training. Didn’t like having to walk up and down to get something when it could have been in my reach in the room…
The breakfast was okay, could have been better based on the price.

Everything! Best stay! We stay in Hermanus and we often have to fetch and take my son to the airport so we sometimes stay over. Of all the times we stayed over this was by FAR the best place we have been at. Staff super friendly, rooms value for money and has everything u may need, just feels like home. This will definitely become our permanent choice of stay for the future! Love it!

South AfricaI was charged additional R150 for adding 1 bowl of meusli in my breakfast, and another R150 for adding a small bowl of mixed fruits. This resulted to me being charged R900 for breakfast.
I liked the cleanliness and tranquility of the estate where Homestead villas is situated.

CanadaOnly one thing I did not like and that was bathroom sink which is modern rectangular shallow flat base with no slope for water to drain easily (basically wrong engineering design and not approved hygienic sink) when water running through faucet, it accumulate and splashes water all over.
Everything was supper good and comfortable, excellent peaceful location in beautiful area. Supper friendly staff. I recommend and will go back again.

South AfricaThe only improvement I can suggest is the parking as it was difficult to get in and out. You can't be in a hurry, but it was great to get parking next to the villa! Just issue with code at gate if you want to go out early in the morning and it hasn't been updated from the previous day at reception. Better communication with a code to guests before arrival will also save a lot of time at the entrance gate.
Location good. Facilities are good and clean! Will definitely recommend it and go back!
