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 AfricaThe owners were extremely helpful and kind. The beds were really comfy and the little rondavels were very cute. Nice pool for a quick swim in the morning. Not directly at the beach but Sodwana town is only about 20 mins away!

South AfricaWhoever designed the inside of the rondavels must have been high. The bathtub is too high and the design doesn't make sense. Can towels be changed to white. Change cover of duvets to white as well.
The rondavels reminded me of home and the out door shower was nice. There was load shedding and we were hungry, the hosts made us cheese sandwiches.

ItalyWonderful stay: the facility is simple but at the same time very well cared for in detail and nothing is missing. The children loved the accommodation, the pool, the space and especially the animals. Mpumi is very kind and always helpful, the stay is valuable also thanks to her. We hope to return soon!

South AfricaThe road entering the village was very sandy for a small car if we can get some gravel it will be nice
Host communication ensured that we are waited for before we even reach the lodge. The lady who takes care of the place was very welcoming and full of information about the place andits history. When we needed to make fire for our braaj she assisted us with all the necessities. Our rooms were very quite and relaxing, in the morning we were greeted by the rooster miles away I thing from neibours, which made us feel at home.

Belgium- there are no screens on the windows and all the windows were open when we arrived, which allowed probably for plenty of bugs to get in, proven by the humongous cockroach we found on the wall next to the bed alongside some of his smaller friends. Also plenty of Gekko in the room that probably got in the same way. Given that this place lays in Malaria risk country we would have expected to have at the minimum either screens in the window or a klamboo over the bed. - the pool was emptied of water, we were not informed of this beforehand - there are no lounge or relax possibilities : no outside furniture anywhere on the property except for some plastic chairs (but no tables), no sitting space in the room (except for 2 kitchen chairs but you can hardly call that relaxing seating) - We did not feel welcome at all at this property, the hospitality mentioned in previous reviews on booking seem to be related to a previous owner. - access is barely possible if not using a 4*4 drive, the road is very badly maintained and very loose sand. Do not try to get there with a Sedan because you will get stuck. We barely got out with our small 2*4 SUV. - No soap or shampoo provided.
Not much really.
