We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaThere is really nothing we disliked.
We loved that we had the entire property to ourselves so could feel fully relaxed.

CanadaWe might have been more comfortable with access to a shower (+ the bath provided) as well as a microwave for ease of heating meals.
Excellent peaceful location, with beautiful interior touches in a quiet wooded area. Quick walk to the water, and nice water view from the windows. Host was warm and welcoming and provided quick response to questions. Amenities provided were as described and in great condition.

The accommodation was peaceful and immersed in nature being situated within a forest overlooking a lake.

CanadaI wish we could have seen the water a bit more. That is no reflection on the property just a personal desire.
The property was quaint, private and quiet. The path way to the Dome was windy and unexpected leading to the excitement of arriving at the Dome.

United StatesThe Forrest Shore Dome was the most magical getaway into nature. The dome was cozy and beautifully designed, with large windows offering stunning views of the forest, water, and a starry sky at night. Inside, it was super clean and comfy with all the thoughtful amenities one would need. The host was above and beyond, ensuring we had everything we needed. This stay was an amazing, calming experience for us and a perfect retreat into nature. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend! ❤️

Absolutely everything. The dome is located in a lovely little forest, just a minutes walk from the beach. The dome is equipped with a little kitchenette, the owner even provides some fruit, coffee and fresh eggs from her farm. The bed is extremely comfortable, the views are amazing: during the day the ocean and at night the stars. The interior is so cozy and has been set up with so much love for detail: there are books, a vinyl player, games. The owner is so nice and helpful

CanadaI want to preface this with saying that everything in the write up is accurate…there are just a couple of things that I assumed from it that didn’t end up being as I thought and I think it’s important for people to know before going. I wasn’t expecting a hike in, we thought there was a propane bbq, and the dome was uncomfortably hot during the day, to the point we couldn’t stay in there( it heated up by 9:30). The hike in was only about a minute-2 minute walk, but we had a cooler of food with us, excited about bbq-ing some meals and we knew the fridge was small, so it took us a few trips to take everything in. If you have any mobility issues, you wouldn’t be able to get to the dome (the path to the dome is the forest floor, with roots and rocks on the descent). The bbq set up is not propane-you have to build a fire and then there’s a grill on top. The bugs were quite bad, so we didn’t want to be out tending the fire to get it to coals so we could cook, so we ended up getting takeout for most meals. There is a hot plate inside with all the cooking utensils, but we didn’t want to heat up the space with cooking. There is a floor air conditioner in the dome, but, being the end of summer, it just couldn’t keep up with the heat of the sun coming in, so we essentially couldn’t be comfortable inside between 10-5 or 6, which was disappointing because it’s such a sweet space we would have liked to spend more time relaxing, napping, reading and enjoying the accommodations more. There’s not a lot to do in the area (which we knew before we went), so we had planned for most of our getaway to be relaxing at the dome, making yummy meals, and enjoying our beautiful accommodations, so, having to be out of the dome during the daytime hours was a shift in plans for sure.
Beautiful location, pristine attention to detail inside the dome (record player, soaps, bath salts, lighting, bedding, fresh farm eggs), the bed was very comfortable and the bathtub with the ocean view was amazing. The photos reflected the property perfectly. Our hostess couldn’t have been more friendly, attentive, or accommodating.
