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 AfricaThere is a short dirt road from the farm to Phalaborwa that can easily be done in a normal sedan, but it is slow going, so account for that on your trips to and from the park. In total, about a 20 to 30 minute drive from the farm depending on how you drive and what car you have.
Excellent value for money. Staff were very friendly and kept the unit spotless during our drives in the park. In the extreme heat of December, the air conditioning units worked flawlessly. Great for a family of 4 with 2 kids or 3 adults. Would highly recommend.

United KingdomNot the owners fault, in fact David went out of his way to help, but the access roads are difficult to negotiate without a 'sturdy car'
The cottage is beautiful, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The braai and pool area are great and the whole ambience of the place is relaxing. David is meticulous with his directions and cares so much about your enjoyment, at the place which means so much to him. All round a very enjoyable stay and would stop again in a heartbeat.

South AfricaWe were driving a small car, so the dirt road was a bit of a problem for us.
David was very helpful, we arrived very late and got lost (didn't read the whatsapp messages he sent earlier in the day), he was very patient and was even willing to drive out so to collect us. The hosts are extremely helpful and kind. The cottage is as the pictures, very nice & private. We had a lovely stay. Would definitely return.

South AfricaSpacious cottage, good WIFI, very well equiped kitichen, comfortable sitting area with TV, spacious bedroom with ample space for luggage, large bathroom with huge shower. All very clean. Large covered terrace ouside, private splash pool, deck and braai area. Battery operated lamps were provided for times of loadshedding. David is the perfect host who went the extra mile when we got stuck with car troubles. Next time we'll definitely stay longer and will use this perfect and peaceful cottage as a base to explore the Kruger national park and the area. Thank you David, you'll see us again!
