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.).

seclusion, lagoon and mountain view, amazing privacy/peace/habitat/5 * accommodation. Although it’s all inclusive the food is Michelin star quality. Loved all the excursions which are included. Had fabulous spa treatments too.

South AfricaLeaving to come home!
Absolutely everything! The location, the room, the views, the wonderful staff! We had a most wonderful stay, celebrating my partner's birthday. Tiaan, who took us on an excursion to the beach, was a lovely, knowledgeable guy and we had a fantastic time down there. Dinner was also very good. In the morning Tiaan took us to the Spookhuis from where we did some kayaking. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We LOVED our stay!

South AfricaWe were put up for the first two nights in a room i didnt book. I specifically booked a room with a view, this room had no view! Was also slightly disappointed with how close the rooms were to each other, groups with kids can be heard from adjacent rooms. The dessert offerings on all our evenings could have been improved.
The views, location and staff are all amazing! We also ate like kings! Awesome place if you like bird watching, also got to see a caracal from dining room! Our experience at the spa was also lovely!

South AfricaAfter a detour, it took us a while to find the entrance to the Lodge as there was no signage "Mosaic Lodge" at the entrance gate.
The peace and quietness was exactly what we needed. Being a small luxury lodge was a bonus.

SwedenThe food was not good enough. We couldn’t do any of the activites offered either than a walk in the area… Not worth the money. The massage, it did not feel professional- she did not know what she was doing when she gave me the footmassage.

South AfricaWe were very disappointed with the food options. We have stayed in countless all-inclusive accommodations before, and the choices/variety of food as well the standard was not in our opinion an "all inclusive" standard for the price one pays. We informed the lodge well in advance that we do not eat pork/ostrich and both evenings and breakfasts, these were served and either no or limited alternatives were provided. This is unacceptable for a place of the standard they advertise. I would have liked to see more manager presence to whom we could give feedback throughout our stay. There is nothing exceptional about this lodge unfortunately. I think they are aiming for a standard which they fail to reach. They would do better to offer the accommodation or B&B alone and allow guests to pay for add-ons as they choose.
Location is stunning! Quad bike ride was fun, the splash pool that is mildly heated (lukewarm) was also lovely on the coolish day. The staff are very friendly and willing to help/assist.
