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 reviewThe villa is great. It has everything you need and is very clean. It is fully equipped and has a great outdoor kitchen. The location is amazing. You walk up to the beach in seconds. We didn’t really use the beach supplies but they do have them at your disposal. Definitely recommend this place!

Verified reviewHost provided amenities were great - kitchen was fully stocked, beach chairs with wagon and small beach toys were available for guest use, and plenty of beach and bath towels were provided. The location was directly across a small parking lot from the beach with pretty views from patio and a long upper balcony. Our car did not fit under the covered parking as anticipated but there was easy street parking right next to the building. The lawn patio area and balcony were also very well maintained with comfortable seating and a good barbeque.
The bathroom for the primary bedroom is too small for two people to share but the hall bathroom for the other two bedrooms is good sized. The downstairs bathroom by the laundry also has a shower and was very useful when everyone needed to get ready at the same time.

Verified reviewSpacious apartment right across the street from the beach and easy walk into downtown shops and parks
The oven's control panel was worn off so we couldn't figure out how to turn it on or what the temperatures were. Stove top and microwave were great though.

Verified reviewAmazing location, only a couple of hundred metres to the beach and right at the end of the Main Street. The villa was well equipped with everything you could possibly need including a beach cart, chairs, kids toys, board games etc. The bathrooms have been nicely renovated and the rooms were comfortable. The hosts were great to deal with and it was extremely easy gaining access to the villa when we arrived. Would definitely stay again and would reccomend to friends and family!

Verified reviewDisgrace - both to owners and booking.com - stairs over metre high with no hand rails. It is a legal requirement but not for old apartments supposedly in Qld. We advised owners next day we could not stay as too dangerous for parents and if we could get small refund, we never asked for full refund. They simply said no!!! Close to $500O dollars gone. Also Outdoor furniture thrown out back and small scaffold out front as well.
Disgusting their response to the stairwell too dangerous without handrails was, you should advise if have elderly people!!! Why should we have to do that, when Australia had regulations for handrails with stairwells over a meter high!!! Why was there nothing mentioned on booking.com about this.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for your ratings of 10 for location and comfort. We sense your frustration and we feel very sympathetic to the situation you found yourselves in, and have expressed this privately to you, but we feel it's important to point out that our listing provides detailed photos and information concerning the property, including 3 photos of the stairs. There was therefore a clear and obvious mismatch with what you would require for your stay, prior to booking.
