Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 AfricaThe entertainment facilities were not working. The pool table was broken and the there were no darts for the dart board. The road to get to the location is very long and bumpy especially if you don't have an SUV. It's not a simple in and out.
Place was very neat and clean. Lovely views.

South AfricaOur holiday at Umtamvuna View Cabanas was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The cabanas offered a serene and peaceful atmosphere surrounded by breathtaking views of the Umtamvuna River. The cabana was super cozy and comfortable with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Louis, the host, and his wife were very welcoming. We will definitely return soon. Luna was cool as well ! 😁

South AfricaThe Cabanas is a lovely break away with all the comforts of home. Bigger than expected. The road is absolutely fine and even any small car could quite easily travel on it. Spotlessly clean with everything you need. Louis is a professional and helpful host. Thank you. We will return.

South AfricaThe drive towards the lodge was more challenging than expected. Lots of dirt road in less than ideal conditions, which has you second guessing wanting to come in and out more than you need to. Imagined as well the swimming pool area was more secluded from the rooms, but the units are all close together facing the pool so if outside privacy is important this may not be ideal for you.
The owner, Louis, is a wonderful chap, the room was large, and comfortably furnished. Also there's airconditioning! Outside area also wonderfully furnished with a big table and couches. The outside area, with pool and sloped gardens facing lush greenery and mountains was also beautiful.

South AfricaI only didn't like the gravel road needed to get there but once you drive a couple of times on it then you get used to it.
The view from the pool was beautiful overlooking a luscious green forest. It was a very serene and quiet environment. The place was very neat, clean and comfortable. Very nicely styled. My kids loved the bunk beds and the library. The owners were very friendly as well.
