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 bed was very loud and I didn’t expect to share two bathrooms with four rooms.
We are sorry you found the bed loud and did not expect to share bathrooms. We do try to be clear that we are a hostel when you rent a room and a cottage when you rent the entire building. We have five bedrooms that share two and one half bathrooms. On our web site practically the first thing we state is cottage/hostel, sorry that you did not understand this when you reserved.

Verified reviewAmazing beach nearby. Beautiful views. Absolutely memorable.
Just the trundle bed was a bit uncomfortable. Other beds were fine.
Thanks for your review, the beach is beautiful, so glad you enjoyed the property and experience. The three quarter bed is great for one, cozy for a romantic couple and the trundle bed is wonderful for smaller guests, perhaps not as satisfactory for taller adults. Sorry that you found it a bit uncomfortable.

Verified reviewIt was very clean, beautiful shared kitchen.
The bed sounded like an earthquake was happening every time you tried to roll over. The walls must have no insulation because I could hear every word said by the people in the room beside us. The ceiling is just pieced together plywood painted over. The ceiling lights flickered.
We are glad that you found everything clean and enjoyed our kitchen. We are sorry that you had a bad night with noise from the bed and the guests next door to you. We will take a look at the ceiling light to identify and fix the flickering you described. Sorry that you did not have a good experience with us!

Verified reviewBeautiful setting, host very welcoming, everything you need to cook and bake right at your finger tips, games and cards to play also available.
Too far from everything for our taste but again, it's a beautiful area 😁
Thank you, we are happy you found the property and setting to your taste and that you had everything you wanted available. Understood on too far for your tastes, we look at it as close enough, but far enough away to feel like you have escaped.

It would have been nice to have a fire pit but not the end of the world
Thanks for taking the time to review our property. At the suggestion of guests such as yourself we will be adding a fire pit, thanks for making the recommendation.

Verified reviewcomfortable common areas and rooms and well equipped kitchen (bring your own food). Proximity to Sally's Beach. Tranquil gardens and opportunities to socialize with other guests (or not). Dave communicated well and provided transport for a small fee as we were doing the Island walk.
Thank you, we are happy to see that you enjoyed our property, both inside and outside.

Verified reviewThe kitchen is really nice. Lots of washrooms. Right by the water, great location. Host is great!
Mosquitoes outside but that's not the host's fault.
Thank you very much for reviewing our property, sorry about the mosquitoes!

Verified reviewLocation is great, near a beach. The shape is fascinating. You can see the stars from the property.
There were many mosquitos since it is pure green and nature, so it is normal. I would say cleanliness can improve, but nothing big to complain about.

Verified reviewThe barn is a very rustic but well equipped hostel. The bedrooms were lovely - private, good beds. The common space was a bit dated, but still very functional. Loved the kitchen! The setting at Spry Point is quite magical and very peaceful. There was garage storage for our bikes.
I wish there were stairs down to the beach. Not having a private washroom was less than ideal, but worked for us because the place wasn’t full.
