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 AfricaWent for swim, the pool was full of bugs. There was a creepy krauly in the pool but it was not on. When we arrived there was a thunderstorm, a braai for the deck would be nice incase the weather is not good.
The peace and quietness. The bed and pillows were really very comfortable. The water pressure was excellent in the shower. Had a overall good. Experience. The resort was not crowded. Everything was thought of in the bathroom. I would highly recommend this place.

South AfricaNo WiFi! There is a tv but free WiFi is a must nowadays and that would have been very helpful as my cellphone network was not supported in that area - there is however a coffee shop at "The Windfarm", not far from the lodge, with free WiFI. Also, although everything was clean, it was clear that maintenance (like most properties) are a little bit neglected. Not that it will bother you (it is more for the owner to have a look at this).
The location is perfect and if you need a quiet break away, this is the place to stay. The lodge itself is peaceful with very nice views (bushes though). I enjoyed the swimming pool and should you have kids, there are other things also to keep them busy. The mall is very close even though the property is somewhat secluded, thus a perfect balance. It felt very private.

South AfricaWell equipped, friendly staff, views from the pool area.
The admin was a bit on the slow side. They didn't charge me untill 4 days after my stay. Apart from that, the place is really beautiful and tranquil. Sadly though there's no Seaview at all, the view from the chalets is most shrubs.

South AfricaScary spider greeted me at the braai area. Jokes aside, there is nothing to dislike about this property.
The absolute tranquility and beauty of the lodge left us yearning to extend our stay, unfortunately they were fully booked, none the less we enjoyed our stay to the very last moment and on the final day decided we would explore their hiking trail and it was absolutely amazing, they also have a viewing platform at the other end of their drivable road, with an absolutely gorgeous look over the property. We will be going back in the coming months, and will most likely be bringing the rest of the family to also enjoy the ultimately relaxing experience.

I booked the chalet for my sister to stay over the day before her wedding in order for her and her bridesmaids to get dress and take photos before leaving for the ceremony the next day. Tanya was so helpful and on the day of check in we were upgraded to another chalet which exceeded my expectation and they provided some bubbly which was an awesome surprise. The venue looked great and my sister will have beautifull wedding pictures. Will definitely go back again.

United KingdomBalcony: very dangerously made with massive gaps between the uprights so that our child could fit his head, and slip his body between them, with quite a drop below. Please do not book these chalets if you are traveling with children definitely under 5, maybe under 8. BBQ packs: these are pre-made, frozen (ours were 4 months old) meat and are definitely not worth it. PLus you have to buy the wood separately which was unusual, and the BBQ area is highly overgrown, a bit away from the chalet and hard to use whilst supervising children Breakfast croissants: pre-packaged, dry and overpriced. Really not edible Overgrown forest: the forest is so overgrown it almosts stops the entire view over the damn Barge and fishing facilities: very tired and overgrown. We had to ask specifically for the fishing material. THe barge rope is really gross and green!
Easy to find location Secluded cabin Great pool with loungers and beautiful views- just shame that it hadnt been cleaned in a while so was full of algae and sand Separate bath and shower

South AfricaWhen we arrived the house wasn’t clean, patio was definitely not cleaned and was covered in sticky juice marks. Terrible drain smell in the house which we reported and were told that they were aware of it but would tend to it once we had left…The people that stayed next to us had a dog that constantly barked at us at the house we were staying in.
The location was amazing, we all loved the hot tub and enjoyed the fishing.
