Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

Well maintained, & well equipped home, with everything we needed. Ideal location with an unrestricted view of the ocean. With the wonderful outdoor setting on the front deck, we could sit back and relax while watching ferries, two cruise ships and regular morning dolphins frolicking!

AustraliaThe second bedroom too small and the bed not so comfy and was a bit noisy when one person moved. No door on ensuite. Would prefer a TV in the kitchen lounge area. Would like some paytv to watch the footy.
Views and location were the best. The house was warm and the kitchen facilities great. Main bed was super comfy.

Hong KongNothing we didn't like
The location is excellent both for staying local and enjoying walks and wildlife and as a base for exploring the island on day drives. Magnificent views over the ocean . Everything provided there was of high quality, clean and allowed for meals and picnics to be prepared in the kitchen or BBQ. Very comfortable warm bedding.

AustraliaFor our tastes there was nothing we didn't like except maybe the dead kangaroo under the tree. :)
This place is fantastic. The views of the strait between Kangaroo Island and the Main land of Australia is wonderful from the settee in the main room. To sit on the verandah and have a quiet drink ( of any kind) in the evening or breakfast with dolphins frolicking in the gulf is just awesome. The beds are very comfortable, the main bedroom has a huge ensuite with a lovely shower. The family living room space is big enough to have a party in. (not that we had one :)). The cupboards are stocked with so many things that are available to use such as cutlery, crockery and even coffee, sugar, condiments etc. We have stayed here twice now, the second time to give our cousin from the Netherlands a look at Kangaroo Island and its wonderful attractions. Wineries, the Raptors, Flinders Chase, Kingscote, honey and eucalyptus farms are just a few. Penneshaw also has a great Hotel for meals and the people are very friendly. I would recommend Ashenden's to anyone who is looking to stay on Kangaroo Island. Thank you again Helen and family for allowing us to stay in your beautiful holiday house. We will definitely come again.

AustraliaWe were sad when it was time to leave!
Ashendens is in a great location with great views. Everything one could possibly need while on holidays was provided by our hosts. And more! The house was clean and comfortable and our directions to get there were accurate and easy. Watching the ferry go by from the living room window was relaxing and felt like time stood still. We really felt like we were on holidays. Even the kangaroos visited us while we stayed there. We would highly recommend Ashendens to anyone visiting Kangaroo Island and would definitely stay again.
