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):
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.
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.).

United StatesNothing.
The views were great from the spacious balcony (saw whales breach), lots of chairs and pillows for morning coffee and sunset cocktail hour. The location is perfect for walking to dinner and back, and even a long walk to the southern-most tip of Africa if you want some exercise. It was very clean, had everything you need to make breakfast or do light cooking, and the bathrooms were very functional with lots of fluffy bath towels and plenty of hot water. Nice to have a washing machine and drying rack when you are traveling for a while. Closet space, clothes hangers, storage cabinets, flat surfaces, power outlets by the beds... all the little things that make it comfortable to settle in and stay for a few days. Decent wifi to do what we needed to online. Safe and quiet neighborhood and town. We really enjoyed staying here, it felt so inviting and relaxing. We actually stayed here in the smaller studio apartment 6 years ago and are glad we came back.

South AfricaThere was no wardrobe to pack the clothes in and this was challenging for a 3 night stay, especially because the apartment was compact with not much space.
Great views and the apartment was compact, but comfortable and private. We had great weather and were able to make use of the braai facilities.

Great communication with the host which wasn’t present but arranged everything for a perfect check-in. Location is easy to find, everything inside was as described, except the view…it’s 10000 times better! The captains view can’t be beaten, it’s hard to leave the patio nor the seats by the window! Would recommend without hesitation!

South AfricaIt would be nice if Captain’s View had a chest of drawers so one could unpack one’s suitcase.
Excellent location with off-road parking. Very well equipped, especially the bigger accommodation, “Sunrise Cottage”. However, “Captain’s View” has a fabulous view of the sea which includes the iconic Cape Agulhas Lighthouse. It is also within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants.

Loved this little piece of paradise. We decided to go on a last minute trip and it was the best little getaway. The location is prime and the decorations are so cute. One of the best parts was how lovely and accommodating the hosts are. They made sure we knew how to access the property and really made our weekend stay amazing. 100% would go back. What a gem of a stay :) thanks so much.
