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.).

Modern apartment in Marloth Park. Furnishings are nice and you can watch the wildlife from everywhere in the house since there are plenty of windows.

AustriaSome minor issues that are not worth mentioning…
This is a very nice accommodation with a modern feel and touch… The thing we liked the most, were the beautiful animals roaming around and even coming towards your terrace… zebra’s, antilopes, impalas, kudus, warthogs and beautiful birds were regular seen guests… The terrace itself is nicely decorated and has comfy (lounge)chairs to sit in and a very nice swimming pool… it has a nice braai facility as well. The house is very well designed… Bedding and bathroom were nice too. When it’s a colder day…you can see the wildlife very clear from the inside as well, because of the nicely shaped windows. So all in all… if you’re into a nice bush experience, but you don’t want to compromise on western luxury… this is a house for you. The house itself is secluded without a view on your neighbors and centrally in the park. The distance to Crocodile Bridge Gate at KNP is a mere 20 minutes… And my final remark: the owner and caretaker of the house are more than willing to answer all your questions and to make sure that you’re have a pleasant stay…not only at the house, but throughout your journey as well…

South AfricaWe loved our stay! We found the place really well designed and easy to enjoy. There were a few very tiny things we'd suggest, such as having a few more dishtowels and cutlery, but overall it had everything needed for a great holiday. We would probably avoid visiting in December again just because of the sheer volume of people staying in Marloth, but we will definitely visit here again.
My fiancé and I loved the privacy and quiet of this location, especially over the December holidays where Marloth Park was really full of visitors. It was our own little oasis. The setup of the patio and pool area is really spacious and comfortable, and having it raised above the ground level means you can enjoy your braai without some of the more tame park residents coming too close to search for food. Extra large windows throughout the house bring so much light inside and provide great views of the bush surroundings and park's animals. The house is compact but so well designed as to make a stay very enjoyable. The bed was really comfortable and we appreciated the aircon in the room on some of the hotter days. Rihanda, the property manager, was extremely helpful and friendly and we appreciated her quick responses to any of our queries. Would highly recommend staying here.

South AfricaThe sliding door in the lounge had hand prints which we assumed were from the previous guests( which we wiped off ). The shower floor also had hair strands which we also assumed it was from the previous guests. There was a bit of dust on some of the items, specifically the ornaments and floating shelves. The pots are rusted. The front door is hard to open and close, which requires a bit of hard pull and push, which could potentially damage it. The lock hole was also a bit loose missing 1 screw, which could potentially get damaged by a guest. The pool bed mattresses were also a bit dirty. In essence, there were traces of the previous guests, which in my view, shouldn't be the case, the unit must feel as if it was prepared specially for the new guests.
The unit is absolutely beautiful, with all the necessities that are required in a self catering holiday home. It felt like a home away from home. The unit has everything one uses at home. Beautiful finishing touches. Different types of pillows was the highlight for me. The huge windows that makes animal viewing so much better 🥰. The floors were super clean, we were able to walk bare foot inside the house. We were very pleased that there was also a pool towel, which most places does not have. The location is beautiful and private, which is exactly what we were looking for. It exceeded our expectations! 1 Thing that can be done to make the guests stay even more better, to put a leaflet or booklet in the unit, with details of shops and restaurants should the guests need to buy a few things. On our arrival, we realized that we forgot to buy wood for braaing, we drove around the area not knowing were to go and operating hours of the shops, we eventually drove out to Komatipoort.
