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.).

The host thought about everything. It is really a very cosy place with a lovely view.

South AfricaLying in the EXTRA comfortable bed looking out at the ocean, the lovely balcony to drink a cuppa in the early morning... watching the Mongooses. The rock pools and tidal pool. Internet access to share pics and make the family jealous. The entire place is kept scrupulously clean.. pretty sure you could eat off floor.

South AfricaBathroom has a spacious shower, but is otherwise somewhat cramped when the door is closed, unlike the bathroom in the other unit that I stayed in on a previous visit that is much bigger. This was a minor inconvenience though and did not detract from the overall experience of staying there.
The enclosed porch which allows you to sit and enjoy the beach without being exposed to the wind and sun. Having lights and TV functioning during power outages. (solar connected) Clean and neat unit. Owners are very friendly and helpful.

South AfricaNothing. I am very satisfied and will be returning soon!
I really enjoyed my stay. It was very considerate of Brad and Jen to provide rusks, cereal, milk, tea and coffee . I did not have to buy breakfast food. The apartment was clean and very spacious. The door is facing the street with no gate to the property but I did not mind as the area seems very safe. The property is on the outskirts so worth noting that there are no shops nearby. But then it's nice and quiet.

South AfricaThere was really nothing that I did not like about this apartment.
The apartment was very spacious, exceptionally clean and had a spectacular view over the ocean. There was enough beverages like coffee, milk and rusks to enjoy my morning coffee on the comfortable verandah, overlooking the ocean.

GermanyConstruction next door, but as I was out all day and they knocked off around 4 it wasn't a major drawback. Was able to enjoy the sunset hours with only the rumbling of the waves every afternoon
Welcoming and helpful host who went the extra mile to secure electricity for my medical device. Balcony with a view to die for. Conveniently located for visit to Addo. The Sacramento Hiking Trail within walking distance would merit an overnight in itself - wildlife, dune landscape with wild Gazania and pristine beaches with swimming (mornings) baylets all to oneself. Very good value for money

South AfricaI felt at home from the moment I arrived. The unit is neat and clean. Rusks on the table, fresh milk in the fridge. I felt safe and could leave the door open - my yorkie could play to her heart's content on the grass. I would still be there if I did not have to work. Thinking of work - I could do that with the very stable Wi-Fi and power. I did not even notice when it was loadshedding.

We visited for a family funeral and sought accommodation in close proximity. It proved to be very accessible and convenient. We really enjoyed the peace and tranquility and privacy in the loft apartment we occupied. Light, neat, clean and minimalistic. Very enjoyable sound of crashing waves and authentic smell of fynbos.Refreshing and therapeutic!
