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 stairs, yhooo it would have been better if there was a lift 😂... We were on Second floor and imagine moving up the stairs with your stuff.
I loved the view of the sea, it was beautiful. The fact that I didnt have to wait for the host for the keys to be handed over to me. When we arrived the security guard handed over the key. Our host met us at our apartment. The host was so welcoming, everything was communicated. We really had a great stay.

South AfricaIf all bedrooms could have mirrors. Lounge and 1 bedroom air conditioners were not working, and hot water supply was a problem.
The unit was amazingly spacious, homely, and well equipped. We were blown away the minute we walked in. It's a pity that our stay was too short to enjoy it properly. Roxanne was super, ensured that we had everything we needed when she checked us in. The location is too fabulous. The entire complex is exceptionally beautiful and well kept. We are definitely going back again for a longer period. Value for money at its best👌🏽

South AfricaThe cleaner could be more efficient. The flat does need slight TLC. One sleeper couch was broken and could not be used. This was reported when we checked in though.
The views of this property was amazing, you literally wake up looking at the ocean. We were a bit worried about the stairs however they were not an issue. The easy access to the beach was such a bonus and the three bathrooms saved our big family many fights.

South AfricaThe flight of stairs is not so friendly for the elders as the apartment was on the third and last floor of the building but they liked seeing the beach from the top of the building :) - A lengthy mirror outside the master bedroom wall would be a perfect final touch.
-The apartment is placed perfectly on the beach front. There are clear views of the beach from the apartment's balcony and through the sliding doors we could see it from the inside of the rooms. -The beds were super comfy, linen was clean, warm and sufficient. -Each room had an air-con and en-suite with bath tub, toilet and shower -Housekeeping done daily during our stay :) -The kitchen was well equipped! Loads of cookware and beautiful appliances. - I also loved the lights decor - The pool had a kiddies shallow and braai area with benches - Our host was too kind for assisting us with a Tyre puncture we had on one of our cars

South AfricaThis has nothing to do with the complex but the security gaurd at the gate. I felt he was being a bit impatient with us and at times felt like he himself was a bit lost
Where do I even begin. From the first communication with the owner, to Roxanne who helped us settle in everything went exceptionally well. The apartment was to die for in all honestly I didn't want to come back. The view of the ocean my word. I loved the fact that shops were also around the area. Unlike most places that would also want you to book for two or more days I was glad that we could be accommodated for a day. I will be definitely coming with my kids and be staying a bit longer.
