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.).

South AfricaNo visible signage to the accommodation. There are a few houses on the property and we were not sure where to go and the signal was poor. But then we saw the house as we recognised it from the photos.
The venue is very private and peaceful with the waterfall and birds in the trees. Very nice, clean and spacious property with lovely lawn on the side. Peaceful walk along the river with the resident doggy and we felt very safe all weekend. Close to all popular amenities. Extremely friendly and helpful hosts. Would love to visit in the winter months with all those magnificent trees in yellow and orange.

South AfricaThere was nothing we didn't like.
The beauty and serenity of the location was beyond words. Totally relaxing and reenergising. Watching and listening to the river and waterfall completely superseded the need for a tv. Everything we could need was on hand, including offers of assistance from the friendly and warmly welcoming owners, should we require any. Will absolutely visit again!

South AfricaThe isolation, beautiful river view and kind hosts made this a location we will choose again. Our 2 fur babies loved the space and to run on the grass outside the cottage. Thank you Ian for offering to tow us out if we get stuck in the mud on the dirt road, the area had heavy rains and most gravel roads were floaded. See you soon🙂

South AfricaNothing. Everything was awesome!
We loved this awesome pet friendly lodge situated in the most amazing setting. The owners went to so much extra effort for us; they even built us a fence and a gate so that I didnt need to keep my dog on a leash, that she could roam around free and gave us peace of mind. The hosts were wonderfully accommodating and their beautiful lodge is such a treat, situated above a waterfall and having the most incredible boma. I was so sad to leave, but highly recommend this place and we will definitely be coming back. A real gem in Winterton. Thanks Kim and family for making our stay so special.

South AfricaMassive ant and bug problem. We couldn't even sit outside without ants climbing all over the table and yard. We left early because we woke up 2 nights in a row with bugs running over my husband whilst he slept. Once he was wake he couldn't go back to sleep. The kitchen was infested. Even if U dropped a crumb there were hundreds of ants all over it. Couldn't even sit on the wall outside. The nights were terrible. When the lights came on the flying bugs were even in our hair. Over the food. Not even the smoke from the braai deterred them. The dishes in the kitchen were a testimony to the ant problem. Every piece of crockery that we wanted to use had ants and bug faeces. My bedroom walls were infested with ants and bugs. I got the helper to wipe the walls for me the next morning but it didnt help.This made our stay extremely uncomfortable and we therefore had to leave a day earlier. R4050 for this vacation was definitely not worth it.
The location was stunning. The river was spectacular. Cottage was cozy.
