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 gravel road is a little tough if you don't have a big car.
The scenery was absolutely great! The bush camp gave us a very good experience of being out of city life. Plenty of braai facilities and more than enough space to walk around and explore.

South AfricaThis was the most tranquil place I have been to. Even the animals are at peace. When I arrived I was met at the gate by one of the groundsman. The place feels like home, there’s a level of familiarity that you can’t really describe All the staff members were friendly and helpful. The cleanliness From my bedroom to the shower, bathroom, pool and common spaces, everything was clean and spotless. I was even nervous to make a mess. Each guest this had the responsibility of cleaning up after themselves The views Whether you live in the upstairs rooms or on the ground, you will be able to see the trees, the dam and the entire field. As a solo woman traveller this was very important Please do visit the lookout spot about 10 minutes away from the main camp site. The climb is worth it. I spotted a few animals wandering around in a nearby reserve. And again, it was so serene I fell asleep there. If you’re a Christian, this spot is so great for prayer and worship. And a bit of shouting! The pool The pool was the star of the show. It was so crisp. The canopy really helped cool you off and keep you safe from the suns rays. There’s also a new braai area for you to be with friends and make food without the fuss of going up and down The network It might be in the push but the internet and cell service works throughout! And there’s also WiFi incase you’re from abroad or don’t want to use your data It’s self catering so make sure you stock up on food as shops are .. no where close by. Not to worry, each apartment or house has its own fridge so you can store raw meats and anything that needs refrigeration. Utensils, cooking utilities and facilities are available for use so please don’t bring your own pots If you do want to have a braai, they sell firewood and ice so you don’t have to worry too much about that as well.

South AfricaThere was nothing not to like, it could be really extra with more animals to see and tea and coffee available.
We absolutely loved the peace and tranquility, the unit was comfortable and clean, linen was so soft and as white as can be. The view from the unit is beautiful. The pool was awesome and super refreshing on a hot day and well lit to cater for night swims too:) great activities from darts to table tennis and board games available in the units too. A wildebeest and impala came by one evening to the little area in front of the unit and nestled themselves down for the night. Loved the baby ostriches making their way around!

South AfricaMy only concern is the deposit if R350.00 -- If there was another couple in the room next door we all share the same kitchen and utensils, so if something is missing or broken who is reliable? At the lapa aswell, It is wonderful that all the items are available for usage but there was a family in the 5 sleeper who left glasses and knives at the lapa, so who is responsible there for breakage and loss there?
The pictures on facebook were exactly the same of the camp, the pool was stunning and so blue and clean. The rooms were clean and comfy. Everything was provided for in the kitchen which was great and all in great condition.
