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 AfricaNo towels were provided and when we asked they were mismatched. No matches to light the stove during loadshedding and the fridge or freezer had a terrible smell like someone had left a fish in there for a while
Great location, beautiful views and close to many great hiking trails. Boat house is well equipped with gas braai, fishing equipment and most cooking utensils

South AfricaIt's a beautiful & serene location. It's very well maintained. A real gem for nature lovers. Waking up to the view of the dam is amazing. You can hike around the property and fish as well. Mike is such an incredible host, really helpful and accommodating. We really loved our stay. You will fall in love with the place! Its fairly close to Sani Pass if you'd like to drive up there. There's a supermarket about 15 mins away and it is well stocked with everything you need.

South AfricaTime went by too fast 😢.....
I did not like anything, like is not a strong enough word, we Loved our stay at Lake House, waking up to the birds singing, seeing the sun rise above the mountains, the feeling of being in a safe secure place, the beauty of the lake outside your front door, the friendly, welcoming and helpful Mr Mike Lindsay. We Loved everything about the place and will be returning. There is such a calm and relaxed atmosphere from the time you arrive.

South AfricaNothing noteworthy.
I absolutely loved my stay at this accommodation! Firstly, I adored the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere it offered, providing a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The privacy and serenity of the location, combined with breathtaking views and the presence of a massive clean lake with a deck, made it an ideal spot for relaxation. Additionally, as a pet owner, I appreciated how pet-friendly the place was, ensuring a delightful experience for both me and my furry companion. In summary, this cozy retreat was a true paradise for couples seeking a peaceful escape with their pets.

South AfricaNot easy to find when travelling at night, suggest you get there early cause it's easy to miss when it's dark. Of course, load shedding but the host provided a rechargeable light and gas heater to keep warm for the cold nights.
I liked the seclusion, peace and quietness. Good for a relaxing getaway. It's self-catering but if you need something from the shops; there is a Spar not too far or you can have breakfast at surrounding restaurants or coffee shops.
