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 reviewRelatively nice property, beautifully presented. Pretty abysmal service from the G1 real estate handling the property. The actual hotel staff were amazing, it's a shame our apartment wasn't managed by Mantra Zanzibar itself. Check before you book who your unit is managed through as the real estate won't lift a finger to help you. We had the worst experience with them and it put a huge dampner on our stay. Wouldn't recommend unit 905 purely based on G1!!

Verified reviewLocation, location, location! Breakfast on the balcony admiring the view was incredible. Cafe's directly below. Beach directly opposite.
Not a big deal, but two suggestions for the owners. The ensuite bathroom could do with a small towel rail below the hand-towel loop to hang up the bath mat. Even better, an actual shower door really is required. It's not a huge bathroom so water splashes all over the floor (and said bath mat). The shower cubicle is quite big, yet you end up hugging the wall to minimise the water going everywhere. A shower door could easily be fitted to the tile wall.
Thank you for your thoughtful review Martin! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the location and the stunning views from the balcony. We appreciate your suggestions regarding the ensuite bathroom and will certainly take them into consideration for future improvements. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable stay!

Verified reviewComfortable and clean apartment with everything we needed, in an excellent location in the middle of Mooloolaba, with good sea views from balcony and living room. It’s across the road from the patrolled beach, and close to many restaurants, shops, supermarket and Mooloolaba Wharf.
There is no shower screen door in the ensuite bathroom, but it’s only a minor inconvenience.
Thank you for your positive feedback Mark! We're delighted to hear that you found the apartment comfortable and well-equipped, and that you enjoyed the great location and sea views. We appreciate your note regarding the ensuite bathroom, and we will look into it to ensure a better experience for our future guests. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Verified reviewWell stocked, lovely, spacious apartment with a beautiful view over the water. Both bathrooms catered perfectly for my elderly parents. Location was also excellent as my parents have limited mobility and access to the shops was easy and so close.
We didn’t see any luggage trolleys at all during our stay. We did ask a worker who said they were on the first floor but were still not able to find any. Also the information I was emailed had the wrong internet name listed. Luckily I worked out which was the correct one to connect to.

Verified reviewLocation is easy for beach and strip. Nice walks in area and on beach.
I booked the property because it advertised it had a bath. It was advertised as “The spa bath is a top feature of this apartment”, as per Booking.com @ 12/08/2024. This was important for personal reasons and was critical in my selection.But there was no spa bath as we were informed the owners took it out and converted the ensuite into a disabled facility. No problem with them doing this but why weren’t we offered something else. The managers were aware and there was no update in advertising. The patio BBQ was also absent. Felt let down by poor advertising and in my case I feel I was tricked into taking this unit.
We are sorry that this occured. The spa bath option was indeed still ticked in booking.com. We have now removed it. There has never been a patio BBQ, however, there is a resort common area BBQ. On the brightside, it is now so much easier to access the shower as you don't have to step over a high bath edge.

Verified reviewHave stayed many times best location for sure.
A funny smell inside thought it could be the air conditioning units. Outside area foyer a bit grubby. A couple of bulbs out. Master bathroom a bit Mickey mouse I understand they have taken the bath out. The oven is very hard to read markings for bake grill etc. probably about time for a newer model.

Verified reviewExcellent location, short walk to restaurants, beach and shops. Beautiful views to see New Years Fireworks. Easy check-in and access in and out of the building with key. Good airconditioning.
Sheets smelt of sweat and general dirty and moist carpet. The sofa is moist and dirty/worn which unpleasant to sit on. The cutlery was not clean from the previous occupants. Dripping/running water sound in the main ensuite. Smoking from downstairs apartment and noise from upstairs apartment.
Thank you for your feedback Kara. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the excellent location, views, and easy check-in process.
