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.).

IndiaAn absolutely stunning stay! 🌿 The property is incredibly spacious and set right in the middle of the jungle, offering a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The kitchen is superbly equipped with every utensil you could possibly need, making it perfect for cooking. Beautifully decorated interiors add to the charm — every corner feels warm and inviting. Highly recommended for a nature-filled getaway!

United KingdomI think we went in a quiet time so the Boma restaurant food wasn't great but I can imagine it will be lovely once the property is further developed and busier
Our stay was really lovely. Very close to Paul Kruger gate and good safe road. Accommodation was faultless and very clean. Will definitely visit again!

NetherlandsNothing. It was perfect.
A beautiful home with all the luxuries you could hope for. Heated pool, sunny terrace, private boma and well-kitted kitchen. The bedrooms, outside shower and relaxing bath felt like a personal hotel suite within the home. Also the excellent service (from the reception to the daily cleaning staff) deserve a special mention. We loved our stay.

South AfricaWe understand ot is a self catering accommodation. However, the tea station ingredients were not sufficient. If we knew we could have brought our own. It would be nice if you could consider serving some rusks or biscuit. 😊
The ambience and the location is excellent. Very quiet and relaxing. The houses are so well decorated and very clean. There is everything a family needs to have a comfortable holiday. Very convenient. My kids want to visit again soon. 😍 The staff responded well when my daughter had a medical emergency. We were guided well. I was also moved by the fact that the staff who responded via WhatsApp message also wanted us to update of my daughter got help and if evey thing is fine. The staff is so caring and loving. ❤️

South AfricaThe Mobile Spa the property uses was very disappointing. It was a total rip-off because it was overpriced for the quality of service offered.
Great Location close to the Kruger Park main gate. Awesome facilities, including heated pool and gym on the property. The staff was very helpful and always willing to assist. Very efficient.

United StatesOn Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, the staff were cutting the grass along the fence with weed eaters and making a lot of noise. This was followed by staff working with leaf blowers. This was very annoying and spoiled the peace and quiet of the bush for us. It took a long time, with multiple calls to reception, to get them to stop. The maintenance manager made a bad choice of timing to get this work done.
Apart from the noise from the maintenance department, this property was absolutely wonderful!

South AfricaThere was no river view due to dense foliage. However, this was easily overcome by a short safe walk to the Boma where the coffee and viewing was excellent.
Bush solitude, privacy with modern comforts. Game drives booked through Elephant Point were on time, pleasant and knowledgeable guides, good quality vehicles.

United StatesWe thoroughly enjoyed our stay! I think a stay in any of the lodges at Elephant point would not disappoint. We spent a few days at Mpfuvu lodge, it had everything you might need for your time there. The kitchen was well equipped and the aircons helped keep you cool on the warm summer nights. The view from the patio was amazing and you had a choice of braai’ing/bbq fire pit, gas or Weber outside. The house was spotlessly clean and the housekeeper Lynette was very kind and helpful. The staff with Legacy/Elephant point also went over and above with helping us find a doctor for my sick grandmother.

South AfricaExpected all appliances to work - coffee machine was reported as not working and wasn't replaced. Restaurant service was very poor - meal was over an hour late; which is not great when you traveling with children. Bathroom amenity addition such as toilet spray gun would have been useful. Maybe also add an airfryer to the kitchen appliance list.
Beautiful home with loads of space. Extremely peaceful location with animals visiting daily at your doorstep. Close to many activities.
