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.).

AustriaIt was an amazing stay, we will definitely come again and I can only recommend this great place. The interior is incredible, made with so much love, and the hosts make you feel like home. The breakfast is one of the best i've ever had and the view from the rooms is stunning. It is like a little secret asian place in South africa. The walk through the jungle to the beach is an adventure.

South AfricaWould’ve been lovely if they served a meal as the closest restaurants are a drive away. After having a relaxing day we didn’t feel like dressing up and going to look for food.

South AfricaAlways needed to call staff to be let out or back in. It was never a problem, but it often felt like we were inconveniencing someone
Where do I start? Breakfast; the breakfast is awesome. Eat what you'd like, you will enjoy it. The decor is exquisite, intricate carvings and wicker pieces with pictures of Southeast Asian origin. The area feels safe, the sea view is very good, access to the beach is easy and several swimming spots within walking distance. The marine ecosystem must be good shape judging from the shells on the beach

South AfricaSeparate veranda would be great and not shared with other travellers.
The place is amazing!!! Breakfast was out of this world. I felt like I was in another country, with such beautiful art, a wonderdous view, and the most beautiful beach I have been on. The rooms were well appointed, and we were really spoilt by the staff of Nakai Beach. They really looked after us, and made us feel welcome and at home. Was sad to leave, but will plan to go back!

Austriayou expect an African home stay and when the gate opens you are suddenly in Bali. The scenery is stunning and the home is full is Far East Asian artefacts- combined with a great feeling for details. The pool is a treat, the staff perfect and the breakfast… another great surprise each morning, out on the terrace after a swim
