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 home was furnished beautifully. Lamps had been turned on for our late arrival. The grounds were maintained nicely, we had a long stay which we found very comfortable, it was very homey. The fireplace was a great place to relax at the end of the day. Lovely accomodation.
We liked our entire stay!

Verified reviewIt was beautifully decorated and amongst the vines. A great spot to stay with close access to the Main St and wineries. Our family were very comfortable there in the king size beds and spacious living area. My young daughter loved the lollies and chocolate hidden around the house and the swing out the front. Felt like a home away from home. We would certainly recommend and can’t wait to stay again.
Everything was amazing!

Verified reviewA beautifully presented and decorated home with comfortable beds. A large outdoor deck perfect for relaxing in the sun with a glass of wine.
Whilst there was cereal, biscuits and a coffee machine...maybe some eggs and tomatoes left in the fridge for breakfast would be a nice touch. But that's just my personal opinion.

Verified reviewWe loved the homely feel it had, as well as the decor and little extra touches! The property was close to wineries with most only being a few minutes drive away. Hopefully we can stay again one day :)
The speakers connected to the record player didn’t work which was a shame as my Mum would have loved to have used it! Apparently it had been playing up a while - maybe look into getting this fixed.

Verified reviewI stayed at Sultana with a group of girlfriends for a Hens weekend, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The property immediately impressed us with its gorgeous gardens; everywhere we turned, there were stunning backdrops ideal for capturing amazing photos. The house itself was warm, inviting, and equipped with every amenity we could possibly need. The open living area was simply breathtaking, and the back deck was our favourite spot to relax and soak in the beautiful surroundings. The beds/linen were incredibly comfortable, and the added convenience of a second toilet in the laundry was much appreciated. This property truly exceeded our expectations, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s a 10/10. I’ll be raving about it to family and friends and can’t wait to visit again in the future!
Nothing, this home was immaculately presented!

Verified reviewWhere to start!! It was such a beautiful cosy place to stay. I was with a group of girlfriends and we stayed the night before my wedding. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and get ready. Everything was perfect - it was so thoughtfully decorated, it felt like wherever we looked there was something placed there (whether it be art work / decorative lamp, cushion etc). The outdoor area was BEAUTIFUL with the decking and vineyards. Absolutely perfect for photos. There were biscuits waiting for us on arrival and other little touches like the fans and lighting were on. And the pink door!! I could keep typing but I’ll stop. Go there and see for yourself :)
Nothing!! The only thing to comment (which the host also kindly flags prior to arriving) is the house is set back from a road with fast speed limit, so when entering and exiting the property just need to be careful to slow down in advance and ensure looking for traffic as there’s a slight blind corner. Otherwise absolutely no negatives !!!!
