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 AfricaWhile the location was beautiful, I was disappointed by the lack of basic amenities like hot water and a proper kitchen.this can make your stay uncomfortable even though we only had a light rain it was difficult to cook
The view 😻🔥it’s so cool and nice place to relax the view was breathtaking.The beauty of the scenery took my breath away. It was like a work of art, a masterpiece created by nature. I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder as I took it all in. The staff are so friendly ❤️

South AfricaThe extreme heat, mosquitoes, theres no air- conditioning in the chalets only fans ( maybe thats due to the solar system dependency). The single bed in our room was completely uncomfortable you could feel the coils, there are only bar fridges making it very difficult to fit ice packs.
The location is great for a breakaway from the hustle and bustle of towns, its very peaceful and quiet.

South AfricaI brought my clients there. They complained about the fact that they were accused to break a glass which the day they found broken. They said they urged you to come check the room before they checked out and the staff was not keen to do that. Your glass is improperly placed and they said they found the other side broken by the previous customer. I would like to believe that hotels rather lodges have insurance and should be able to claim from that. It honestly looks like a trap!

South AfricaWe checked in after 21:00 and had to pay a fine of R400 as a penalty( for checking in after 20:00). But here on bookings their check in time is till 22:00. The place needs a proper kitchen for each “house” as it is self catering. They only supplied us with 1 pot and pan to use. And had to cook on the outside of the “house”
I loved the scenery. A beautiful place to go as a couple to spend some quality time

Netherlandswe had a wonderful stay here for 3 nights. The care and friendliness of Sally and Louis is fantastic and unique. The rooms and grounds are also top notch. We had breakfast and dinner there every day and it was delicious and perfect every time! We stayed there with our 1 year old son (youngest guest they have ever had) and our little man and the owners loved it. We can recommend this place to everyone.

South AfricaThe travel time from the gate location. It's a long 30 min strap from their main gate to the location. You need a bakkie or suv cause the in routes are bad. Alot of high humps that can damage your car.
Self catering so no breakfast was served but you can request for breakfast.
