How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWas beautiful! Isolated and relaxing!
definitely ideally need a 4wd to access our cabin Eddie as it’d be difficult in a normal car as even in our Hilux we still slid a few times. Someone’s water bottle was left between the curtin and beside table and one of the wine glasses had a crack in it which we discovered while setting up the space

Verified reviewLoved the views and the outdoor bath! Was secluded and had privacy. Loved having lots of towels! The extra food touches were great too!
The CABN wasn’t very clean upon arrival. We had to vacuum it, wipe down the stove and benches. The light (fan) above the bed was also not working. The zero co is no longer a brand so you will need to update your compendium & potentially add some check out instructions/rubbish removal.

Verified reviewWe had the best holiday at the cabin's! We both work hard and we left feeling extremely rested and relaxed we ever felt after a holiday. The wildlife was so close and it was extremely quiet. Even with the drought, we found the area was lovely especially watching the sunsets and storms roll in. The facilities were clean and tidy. The bed was soooo comfortable and all the finishing touches were a bonus ie sauna, outdoor bath and BBQ
Nothing we didnt like
Hi Rachael, thank you so much for staying with us at Cape St Albans and we are so pleased you love your stay. The sunsets and watching the weather over the ocean are spectacular. We would love to see you again, The CABN Crew

Verified reviewCABN is a very special place! We absolutely loved our two-night stay. The location is quiet and a bit remote, which we loved. There are only five or six cabins on the property, and they are very spread out, so you have a lot of privacy. The views are amazing, the wildlife plentiful, and the cabin is very well thought out with lovely touches. We made sure to come back to the cabin well before sunset after exploring the amazing island, just to make sure we had plenty of time to enjoy the cabin, the surroundings, and once the sun started getting lower on the horizon, take in the views from the deck with the many kangaroos and wallabies who came right around the cabin. We also absolutely loved having the sauna with the picture window, and used it both nights. And, the night sky is truly amazing with absolutely no light pollution. All in all, a very special and memorable stay. Highly recommended.
Hello Eeva, thank you so much for staying with us at Cape St Albans and we are so pleased you loved your stay. We would love to welcome you back again, next time you're in Australia. The CABN Crew

The bed, hard. Sheets not fresh.
Hi Joanah, Thank you for staying with us at Cape St Albans. Our beds have now been updated with beautiful soft mattress toppers and minijumbuk wool toppers. Our sheets are laundered and changed before every stay by our local commercial laundry. We wish you had contacted us over the 3 days you were with us, to let us know of any issues at all and we could have rectified anything for you. Thank you again, The CABN Crew

Verified reviewScenery was amazing. Fun watching the wallabies and wildlife around. The cabin is stylish and so lovely to stay in. The delicious wine, olives and popcorn was a welcome treat. Great BBQ and cooking facilities, and having a coffee machine with the milk frother is perfect.
Only very minor and didn’t detract from our stay: Floors a bit sandy, and a few dead insects around. Chipped bowl and pepper shaker needed refilling. We hadn’t realised a large milk was provided so brought our own.

Verified reviewThe cabin was located in such a beautiful area with the most amazing views. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset with kangaroos around us. The cabin was well equipped and had everything we needed and more! It's a perfect place to relax and have some quality time.
Everything was great. Only 2 little details : the control panel for the sauna was in Dutch and it took us a little while to find the language set-up 😀 and the Bluetooth speaker had no battery so we couldn't use it in the sauna.
Hi Lucie, thank you so much for staying with us at Cape St Albans and we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. It sounds like our previous international guests must have changed the setting on the sauna panel, so glad you were able to change it back! We hope to see you again, The CABN Crew

Verified reviewUnique peaceful rural location with sea views and wild nature on your doorstep. Watching the kangaroos come out in the evening right by the cabin was unforgettable. The cabin itself was fitted out to a high quality with comfy bed, really nice bathroom and well fitted kitchen. The sauna room was amazing with full windows allowing you to watch the nature whilst outside Bath was the ultimate finish to the day
Struggled to get A/C to work but fortunately the fan was really good
Hi Chris, thank you so much for staying with us and we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry to hear you had troubles with the AC, it may have been the batteries going slightly flat on the remote control, we're glad you got the fan working.
