Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaThe road from the gate to the villa was very wet and had a lot of potholes. I realise you can’t do much about the weather that we’ve had previously but the area surrounding the villa was very boggy and to get things from the car to the villa was difficult. May I suggest a cement lab that you park on said it makes it easier and then you don’t have to walk in the slush and the potholes.
Location, comfy.

AustraliaTank water brown. Worsened over a few days. No smell to water. Used for all things except drinking. Bought bottle water. Checked windows after a couple of days and realized not locked. Code to get in via the gate. Found another padlocked gate at back of property. Next to it was a big hole in the fence leading to the road.
Comfortable accommodation with a good spa. Had most things needed. Very nice place to stay.

AustraliaNothing. The team are very responsive and helpful.
The property is located in a beautiful rural/bush setting with each cabin having its own privacy. The property is supplied with all the little extras to allow you to just enjoy your time. Would highly recommend this is my second time staying hear and won’t be my last.

AustraliaSince we didn’t have service or wifi it would have been nice if there were DVDs or games for something to do! We didn’t mind too much as we were only there for a couple of nights but did get a little bored at times. Though it was nice to unplug!
The location was great and though it felt secluded and private it was very close to lots of wineries, cafes restaurants etc. Was easy to access and the book described everything we needed to know.

United KingdomThe admin prior to the visit was officious and lengthy . Too many e mails Terms and conditions were stressed to the point of annoyance. Terms and condions and other admin were printed out in a folder that was 30 plus pages long. The worst thing was their request to upload photos of the front and back of our credit card for a security deposit. We refused as this is against fsc regulations and against booking.com rules After consulting with booking.com we eventually gave them a card no over the phone before they would give us an access code 30 mind before arrival The site has been recently been taken over and we went on a recommendation. We are not sure they have recently inspected the cabins as we were not happy with the cleanliness and had to wash glasses and crockery before use. There was no dishwasher even though the instructions referred to one. The blinds were covered in dust.
Location .quirky cabin was good. Excellent surroundings. Good facilities with swimming pool .Very private Good outdoor space
