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.).

ZimbabweWe were happy with it all.
We self catered and found the flat contained all that was needed. Lieze and her husband were super friendly and the advice given for a great coffee shop was spot on. The shower was excellent and the fact that there was inverter back up during loadshedding was invaluable. The big windows on both sides allowed for great airflow and it was a very comfy space. We really enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

South AfricaNothing, but, when I go there again...I want the apartment without stairs.
The view is soo beautiful. While sitting on our balcony, we are literally on the beach. The beach is just around the corner...less than 5minutes walk.

South AfricaGuests need to be aware of the many stairs. We are fit and relatively young, but others might find it difficult to use. The fire extinguishers really need a service.
Beautiful views from the roof balcony over Heroldsbaai. The establishment has everything you need for a night's or longer's stay. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly. It is a light and airy apartment, within walking distance from the beach.

South AfricaThe bed can feel soft for some but that's about it.
The absolute peace and tranquility that you get with this place is just amazing 🤩. The views of the ocean and the mountains that you get from your balcony cannot be justified with words or photos, you have to see it for yourself! The host is super friendly and helpful with so much hospitality it makes you feel right at home. If you want to just relax and unwind then look no further!

United KingdomThe stairs. For abled bodied people it will be a struggle. For younger kids it will be a struggle. For disabled people its a no go. For young active people it will be a walk in the park and worth the view and location
The location and views were amazing. The bed was very comfortable. Cleanliness were superb. Hosts were friendly and supportive. No better view on the balcony! Wish we had more time to take in the views.

KenyaWe would have liked some hanging space in the wardrobe; a bedside light (I'm a reader before going to sleep, my husband isn't!) and a dining table on the deck as we ate all of our meals up there.
The location is superb, we pretty much lived on the deck overlooking the ocean. The apartment is spacious and well equipped, the hosts amazing and went out of their way to help with airport transfers and any queries we had. We look forward to visiting again.
