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):
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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

AustraliaMy husband, son, and dog had an absolutely wonderful stay at D2 Waterville! The house is beautiful, there is warmth and coziness that made us feel right at home the moment we arrived. The house is spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The location is vinyard facing, close to everything we needed, with easy access to the charming towns and stunning nearby scenery. Our hosts, Dean and Duc were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and thoughtful, going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. They sent great recommendations prior to our stay and catered for our dietary requirements. The house was fully equipped with everything we could need, with sustainability features and also dog friendly, which meant we could bring Hamish along without any stress. A considerable amount of care and attention has gone into the house and the gardens. We can't recommend D2 Waterville enough and are already looking forward to returning! (We stayed end of April 2025)

AustraliaLocation was picturesque and easy to find but private amongst rolling hills and vineyards. Birds in trees and bushes made breakfast under the gazebo a delight. Breakfast provisions provided were plentiful in addition to complimentary wine, chocolates and fresh fruit. Very clean with comfortable beds.

AustraliaArrival instructions were easy to follow along with check in instructions. Breakfast provisions were ample for a family of four. There was plenty to give us a good start to each day. The cottage was so comfortable and cozy with plenty of firewood to use. The beds were warm and comfy. The kitchen facilities were clean and organised with everything you needed to cook a meal. There were board games that were great for us all to play as a family along with a DVD collection. We were so happy with the location - quiet and we enjoyed feeding the sheep and looking at the chickens. Lots of room for the kids to run around with a walking trail (the lavender trail) just up the road. Certainly one of the best B&B experiences we have ever had! Thankyou Dean and Duc! We would love to come back some time soon 😊
