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.).

Amazing location! Room was very clean, good bed. Food was amazing! Best breakfast of our entire vacation. Wish we could have stayed longer. Fantastic value for money. Great experience having zebra's around at breakfast.

FranceThere are some issues with ants but it's in the middle of the bush so not really surprising and it wasn't too bothersome.
It was our third time at Tomjachu Bush Retreat. It is so peaceful and relaxing. Lots of bushwalks around the property with close encounters with a number of animals. We took the self-catering option and it was great fun. The last night we ate at the Restaurant in the main house which was also very good. Thinking about going back already :)

South AfricaThe check in was fine, we did however not receive all the required information around the trails or getting in our out of the reserve gate. Nothing major though so it didn’t hinder the experience.
The area is still very untouched and absolutely stunning. The experience allowed for a complete disconnect from the city. Immersion into nature in the most comfortable of ways!

NetherlandsThe on-site dining options fluctuated, even though there was a chef on site. For dinner there was an extensive menu, but for lunch the only thing available was either chicken shnitzel or chicken pie. At breakfast, we had fresh squeezed orange juice one day, and the next day it was from a carton. There was no variety in the salads (we had the same salad 3 meals in a row). Note that breakfast is an added cost. Additionally, the mountain bikes on site were quite old and the breaks didn't work too well.
Amazing views, incredible bush walking and lots of wildlife on the property. The hiking paths were well-marked so it was easy to navigate without a guide. We booked a bush dinner which was a highlight of our holiday. The guide who drove us to the dinner was very knowledgable and stopped along the way to share information on the surrounding plants and animals. The pool area was fantastic for relaxing (weather permitting), with an Honesty Bar as an added bonus. Very nice lounge areas, both at our cottage and in the main lodge.

South AfricaWe absolutely loved the scenery. The peaceful and quiet atmosphere was definitely what we needed. Being away from the busy life and just getting a chance to relax and enjoy a bit of time together was all we could ask for. The staff was so friendly and professional, they made our stay exceptional, it was a memorable experience. I'd be happy to return for a longer period next time.

The minute we drove into the farm, everything changed the atmosphere was so relaxed it was unbelievable. We were met by a very friendly lady who took us to our cottage as our car was too low. We also met the co owner Jack the following day who took his time telling us more about the farm, very informative. 100% 100% .I have told my friends about the place.
