Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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...).

South AfricaToiletries in the room and a hairdryer would have been nice. The kitchen area is also very limited stocked. It would have been nice if they refilled the hot tub with clean water. The restaurant needs to stock up as not all of the menu items were available, and the empty pool doesn't look that nice.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The location is beautiful. The quad drive experience was real nice- will definitely recommend it. The star gazed dinner was also really nice. Beautiful farm with amazing views. Saw so many wildlife, really impressed.

South AfricaThe shower water temperature was a challenge first night but the issue was sorted promptly. The shower cap needs to be replaced for better water pressure. We were given an option to drive our car up to the property but the paths was dangerously constructed and not driver friendly at all . I think no guests should take that option Archery experience was limited with just one point of target for a whole hour
The breakfast was nice , the cabin was top tier , beautiful, clean and safe. The quad biking experience was amazing

South AfricaThe entrance into the main property could do with a revamp and the oven didn’t work as we were in the self catering unit.
We enjoyed having the entire cabin to ourselves which included a private pool and different areas to soak in the views. It was quite the glamping experience.

South AfricaThe shower in our room was the only thing that made our stay a bit uncomfortable as the mixer couldn't balance the water to desired level. and the fact that we were told not to book activities beforehand and when we are arrived they were all fully booked.
We had all our meals at the restaurant and everything was done to perfection, I would probably just come back for the food 100%

South AfricaWas just really hot inside when we got there, would’ve expected them to put the aircon on but with the doors open it cooled down thanks to the breeze. Would’ve liked a spot light for the braai area and some wine glasses. But besides that it was a fun trip and we made due and just embraced everything and made a plan since it was such small details
Open plan and imbedded in nature. Was a really wonderful way to wake up. All the animals looked healthy and the staff were always ready to help, very friendly. Was really a rare find as the owner intended it to be

South AfricaLack of maintenance on the property. Some of the attention to detail was lacking for example the toilet paper holder was broken, the gas geyser didn’t work well. The bean bag outside has a hole in it. The wood provided was way to wet we couldn’t use the wood burning hot tub and minimal cutlery was provided.
It was beautifully styled in a great location.
