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.).

AustraliaCabins were cold because of the lack of sunlight and areas of the cabin and blankets were dusty. Wifi access was free but signal was not good and ended up relying on mobile data
Property has lush green trees and nicely designed cabins. Close proximity to one mile beach and easy to get in and out (and join the main road).

AustraliaExcellent place. Only one problem! Bathrooms are fully accessibility oriented (atleast bunglaw I got)! Open bath area made whole bathroom wet, with kids it made that zone danger.
Great location, very close to the beach. And about 15-20min drive to main shopping areas.

AustraliaWe tried the bush track behind cabin 5 to get to the beach, but it was a little overgrown with a lot of spiders. It was better to head out the main drive and pick up the track from there. The pool was a little underwhelming.
The Oasis was tranquil, quiet and peaceful. The short walk to One Mile beach was convenient, as was its location on the Port Stephens peninsula. It was nice that amazing sites and experiences could be driven to easily. Also, the cleaner was excellent.

AustraliaThe toilet doesn’t have lock. There’s a small pool for children to swim. You definitely need to bring proper shampoo and shower gel as they provide all in hair and body shower liquid, there are also some soap bar, none really work for us. They provide toilet tissue and some spares but no tissue box so we bought one.
The cabin is spacious for family with children. It’s surrounded by forest. You can hear noise from the wind blows the trees which is very relaxing. The kitchen is well equipped that you don’t really need to bring anything. The wifi is very good. It’s close to one mile beach but keep in mind that you need to take the car, except you like to walk in distance and cross the main street.

Hong KongIt is holiday cabin, not motel /hotel with any service/ facilities. Maybe because our cabin was pet friendly- the furniture were dated, fabric upholstered couches that you don’t really want to sit on.
