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 AfricaLoad shedding and the squeaky laminated floor and the wetness of the floor making the room to have a unpleasant smell.
I loved the view!!! Amazing sea view!!! The house furniture gives it a warm feel, it is really a home away from home. We got to see the Dolphins in the morning. The weather and load shedding can't be blamed on Kathy. We truly loved the house and location.

South AfricaWhat beautiful, cozy, comfortable accommodation. There is absolutely nothing to fault - the view is spectacular, the sound of the ocean rumbling in the background 24/7 is so good for the soul. We enjoyed every minute that we spent in the flat. Many thanks Kathy for being so hands on and for sharing your beautiful spot with us. We will most certainly be back.

South AfricaI did not like the open bathroom in the 2nd room with the single beds. Siblings shared the room and was not impressed with the open plan shower and toliet
Everything was good except i think they need more space in the kitchen as crockery was in the dining room and we had to look for them.

South AfricaFloors were creaky, if you're a light sleeper it wakes up up especially going to the bathroom or kitchen. There's a mouldy smell that we couldn't get rid of as you enter. I suspect it's the floor by the entrance or kids room. Also salt, it's not something we think to buy when travelling, luckily there was enough for breakfast though.
The view was absolutely wonderful. Got to see some whales and dolphins from our window. Beautiful morning sunset. Bed was soo comfortable. Deco was homey and comfortable, great for family stay. Unfortunately we couldn't swim due to the tide but the private beach was lovely, very easy to walk on. Kids definitely loved it. Would definitely come back.

United KingdomCouldn't be improved.
Beautifully laid out with panoramic views of the Indian ocean from the main bedroom and sitting room. The decor was gorgeous with original art works on the walls and the space very well designed with guest comfort high on the agenda. The kitchen was particularly well equipped with a 6 range gas burner and sharp knives as well as any handy utensil you could think of. It also had a washing machine and a dishwasher which was extremely useful if you're travelling long distances and exploring. There is also a swimming pool a minutes walk away and bbq facilities there as well as at the entrance to the property. The beach with many rock pools is accessed through a private gate. You would do better staying here than in a swanky hotel.
