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 hotel is ideally situated near various game drive options, the staff are friendly, and rooms are well-appointed and cleaned regularly. All in all an experience I will most certainly repeat in the future.

South AfricaI was not impressed with the Ala Carte menu, the food ordered was fair but nothing to brag about. Seems to have been poor communication between waiter/waitress and chef as each time we ordered a meal, one of the meals were incorrect or either undercooked. Hotel needs to look at alternatives for dinner on Ala Carte menu as it was boring and very limited if you staying there more 3 or more days. There was no entertainment, live music /karaoke, games or activities, something that should be considered.
Rooms were neat and beds were comfortable. The hotel was not too busy hence it was peaceful and enjoyable. The pool side was a great atmosphere to relax and enjoy a few drinks. Staff were quite friendly ,,housekeeping was really great and service was quick and impressive.

South AfricaThe carpets need steam cleaning and regular vacuuming. The ground/1st floor rooms have vinyl flooring so maybe the 2nd floor rooms are also going to get vinyl in future - easier to keep clean.
Reception staff were great - Nathi was exceptional. Rooms are spacious and the food was great. The game drive was excellent - Cela made sure we saw most of the Big 5.

South AfricaThe plumbing (toilet was leaking) was a bit of a challenge in the one room we stayed in but they were quick to swap us out to another room
The staff were very friendly, they paid a lot of attention to detail and requests from us. There was a kid's playing area with a full program of activities which made the stay exceptionally great for travelling with kids. There was also Zulu dancers every night which was a great treat after dinner next to the fire outside.

Location is top tier! Close to Hluhluwe Game Reserve Memorial Gate, and with just a 1.5-hour drive to St Lucia, you can have a beach and bush holiday! Great food, amazing service from staff and visible management.
