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 AfricaNothing. Everything was perfect
The place was phenomenal and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. The staff were truly amazing and friendly. A special mention of Nosipho, she is super friendly and helpful. We celebrated our first wedding anniversary and the staff really went all out to decorate the room for us. We wouldn’t mind going back to Monzi Safari Lodge!!!!

FranceHonnestly for this price and the experience we had, I cannot find anything. Well, maybe they could add a pasta/rice strainer among the different kitchen utilities :D ! that's all.
Super cute lodge, you feel home as soon as you enter, pool surrounded by trees...Feels like holidays as soon as you arrive. Nosipho, who is part of the staff, was very kind and helped us straight away in booking the safaris' experiences for Hluhluhwe-Imfolosi and Isimangaliso parks. Even before we arrived, she advised us on the best road to take (and not to take) and shared the load sheeding schedule. Very few lodges hence it's quiet, and nice to walk around.

South AfricaIf you're into nature vibes, Monzi a solid pick. The place is nice and tidy, and the private splash pool is a game-changer. The staff are really friendly. They surprised us with a box of litchis for my wife's birthday, which was a sweet touch. Overall, it's a nice spot for nature lovers.

South AfricaThere is nothing to dislike. They just need newer bath towels but the towels are clean and the cleaning staff is excellent.
The timber cabins are the best. The staff, Nosipho is an absolute asset to the establishment. She is so proactive. Communication is excellent. Everyone is very helpful there. The private pool was amazing, the scenery, everything.

BelgiumThere are no restaurants in the close neighbourhood but you can easily take the car to St Lucia. This is a 25 min drive so not walking distance.
Very nice place to stay in the area of St Lucia. We got an free upgrade of the room! The staff was very kind and helpful. The bungalow we got was very spacious and the private pool is a real plus. WiFi worked great. The lodge is situated in a private and gated area with lots of security so we had a very safe feeling. There are animals on the property which made the stay even better! Keep in mind that the lodge is located about 25 minutes driving from St Lucia. Will definitely come back.

NetherlandsFor small things like getting some cola there is a small shop nearby (it's actually a gift shop that also sells a bit of food). There is a restaurant at the golf area where you can have lunch (well, mostly just toast). Both are located inside the gated community. But for all your other groceries you will need to drive to St Lucia which was a bit further away from St Lucia than we had expected (about 20-25 mins) and the road to St Lucia has many “road bumps” (to reduce speed).
What a place! So great! We had so much privacy, a house of our own, it was big, three bedrooms and a living room and a big kitchen. It's definitely in my top 5 places we've ever stayed at. We loved the huge terras with the laying chairs and the small pool; perfect for a warm day. The house is located inside a gated area, which is located inside another gated community. So it's very secure! (No worries, access to the gated community is possible 24/7, there is a guard there all the time) There is a small park with animals there that walk around freely. And the monkeys from the other side of the road may visit you if you're lucky :)

They think of everything before your arrival. Contact you via whatsapp to explain the roads to get there, give wifi password, gate entry code, load shedding schedule- all before your arrival!!!
