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 AfricaThe one bedroom unfortunately doesnt have a window so doesn't get fresh air, and the bathroom is a bit cramped, but perfectly alright for a short stay, and this is remedied by the fans that kept us cool in the hot weather!
We loved the outside garden/pool area and the general layout/decor of the cottage. It was so well equipped and perfectly suited to our needs! The hosts are absolutely wonderful, friendly and accomodating people. We really appreciated all the info and tips for our holiday itinerary and their care!

United KingdomThere wasn't anything I didn't like
Comfortable bed in a quiet location to the side of the property. Super shower and really lovely touches like the milk included inside the fridge. And the bottle of water. The property was easily accessible and I felt very safe and secure. I didn't swim, but the lovely pool to the other side of the property, looked very promising.

United KingdomI loved everything about this cottage and its location
I am absolutely delighted to report that I had the most amazing experience booking this cottage with Colleen The Summer Sand Holiday Cottage itself was set in a beautiful secluded and safe part of Scottburgh in South Africa . What made the cottage stand out the most however was the beautiful array of Tropical plants and trees that gave the cottage that outstanding exotic feel. The cottage is also well guarded with Remote control security gates and CCTV Cameras for your safety. The weather was great ! The pool was kept always nice and clean and very welcoming for a morning swim Coming from UK it was really amazing to experience the warmth of this cottage and the fact that we never experienced any sort of issues with loss of Electricity, which was certainly a bonus, especially knowing that South Africa suffers from intermittent Load Shedding. As a result the WIFI was always constant with fast download speeds, something I admire as I needed the laptop for my remote work. The bedrooms were really welcoming and clean and the Kitchen / Bathroom is exceptionally beautifully designed. In Summary I would add that booking the Summer Sand Holiday cottage was the best move i ever made and Im really grateful that we met such a warm welcoming host like Colleen, who by the way has a good sense of humour and great hospitality. skills Thank you once again Colleen for this memorable stay.😎😎👍👍

South AfricaNothing to complain about, everything was in top order.
The pool was in a secluded area surrounded by the most beautiful garden, it was a quiet not too much traffic or noise, the facilities like the shopping center, beach and restaurants were close by. The house itself has a very modern layout, the upper rooms have the most amazing big windows that reveal a tropical garden, what a wonderful place to stay. The staff are friendly and very helpful.
