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.).

GermanyThe west room's balcony is shared, so you have people from other rooms walking by, which limits privacy a bit. No big issue for us though.
Great acommodation in Wilderness. The room is spacious, clean and bright. The kitchen is well equipped and has everything you need. The pool (heated, which is great) and Braai area is very neat and also wind protected, so you can easily stay outside also when it's a bit windy. The beach is just a 2 minute walk away. Restaurants and shops are also close by, either a 10 minute walk or a quick drive. The area itself is quiet and safe. Owner are lovely as well. Overall highly recommendable :)

South Africathe gas geyser gave an inconsistent temperature when showering
the heated pool kept the kids happy during a rainy day, and into the evenings while we Braai'd by the poolside. Across the road from the beach, and a quick cycle from the lagoon

United KingdomThe owner and the manager (Lucky) were great, getting our decoder to work while we went to the beach and sorting out parking when we thought there was none left. Very comfortable bed, the disability lift to the 1st floor was a life saver and a very pleasant surprise with a heated pool! 5 starts We will definitely stay again when we go back to wilderness.

United KingdomPhotos shown of all apartments so gives the impression of more space than that in west wing apartment. Swimming pool/outside area looks very nice but due to big group down there already we did not use.
Very friendly and helpful staff, special thanks to the manager (Lucky) and the neighbour opposite (Dave) that sorted out a hike for us. Apartment done to a high standard and very clean. Good location

United Kingdomthe hot water could sometimes be a bit erratic.
Our studio was light and spacious with a comfortable bed. it was very well equipped and we particularly appreciated provision of a small portable gas ring which could be used to boil a kettle during load shedding. It was also handy to have access to a lift to bring suitcases up to the apartment. Outside, there was a pleasant balcony and access to a small and quiet pool area which was lovely for a quick dip after a long day out.

Netherlandsthe description didnt match the sleeping arrangements. it was better! rather than sleeping on couches, there were bunk beds (sleeps 4)
The host was super accommodating and always ready to help when we had a question. The small heated pool at the house was used frequently at the end of the day. The street was busy during the day due to the closeness to the beach, but we never had a problem with parking right in front of the house.
