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.).

IndiaAbsolutely everything was fantastic
The property is a few kilometers from Waterfront in the middle of the forest. It’s inside a secure gated complex. The view around is fabulous and quite. The property is furnished beautifully. We really enjoyed the stay being so close to the nature. I would highly recommend this property.

South AfricaThere was nothing to dislike. The communication via Greg and Lauren was super awesome, excellent, warm service. Piece of heaven the place. During our stay...I felt that God is still going to bless Greg with more new blessings ..the owner. Laura is a warm person..God bless you...I pray that everything will fall into place for her and her family. We were in an unknown area for the first time but you made us feel so welcome and safe. The booking from the beginning was so professional and on point. Much appreciated. I immediately started to advertise the place to our company and friends. My friend came over for dinner the Saturday and they were swept away by the awesomeness of the place.
Really enjoyed the peace in the area, the hoese was super clean and comfortable. Awesome view.

South AfricaVery comfortable property & the hosts' communication was excellent. Would gladly stay here again. We also had electricity during loadshedding which is a big up! Well done on the wine glasses, great to see a proper wine glass in a rental property as well. The fire wood & fire places were great too! Only compliments from our group!

South AfricaIf you’re someone who has high standards of cleanliness the following will be very tough for you!- The bedding had stains on them, we opted to just wash them ourselves. The showers were absolutely disgusting with black slimly mould in the corners and the actual floor of the shower was soooo dirty and still had other guests hair on the shower floor. Like I said, we are extremely hygiene aware so this is very important to us, however we just scrubbed the place down ourselves including kitchen area.
it’s very spacious and makes you feel right at home. Very equipped with everything you might need

This is the second time we are staying at this property and had a wonderful time again. Laura was very accommodating, informative, and friendly throughout our stay. They even put up the baby camping cot for our son. Everything was clean and neat.
