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...).

AustraliaWe didn't have a great view from our balcony, and it wasn't a very private balcony.
The pool area is the best. Plenty of sunbeds to choose from. Also, plenty of choice close by for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And the beach is right across the road.

AustraliaNice balcony to sit and relax and watch world go by, but nothing to protect you from the hot sun.
Good size room that was clean and with an excellent view of the beach and esplanade. Lots of restaurants, places to see within easy walking distance from property.

New ZealandThe room was a little tired and could do with updating, not a big deal tho. We were only provided 1 towel (2 adults 1 baby) and there were some hairs on it. I’m sure if we had rung reception they would have fixed this for us however we didn’t as we were only there 1 night and only noticed in the morning. Nothing that would stop me from booking again, we still had a nice stay.
Great location, friendly staff very helpful. Room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. We stayed in room 360. Nice view to the beach. Had everything we needed

AustraliaVery few cooking utensils. Dripping taps, running toilets, blown lights, no coffee machine (they did provide one when asked), random nailed shut cupboards, oven hit cupboard door which was falling apart, stained carpets, beds not comfortable, curtains not blockout and missing hooks so not attached at the top completely. Overall for the price this place is in dire need of refurbishment
Great location, pool perfect for kids who can swim, not so much babies/toddlers.

AustraliaQuick access back from the beach and pool was not available. The lifts were a great distance from our room. Bathroom was cramped as it stored the washing machine and clothes dryer. Bathroom items: - no face washers, only enough shampoo for one wash for one person, no hair conditioner in the bottle. Phone wasn't worker. Main problem - We didn't use the stove top, however when I placed my cake which was in a plastic bag on the stove top, the cake melted. Some mechanism in the stove must be faulty. Would prefer bedroom doors that cannot let light and sound from the living room to filter through.
Close to the beach, excellent water view, quick access from our room to the pool and beach, a window in the bathroom to allow for fresh air, a good sized balcony, full size refrigerator. Excellent location to all facilities.

AustraliaAbsolutely crap internet. This is the second time We have stayed there. Both rooms in different locations and both, times we have had to tether off phones as the signal was poor and sometimes non existent. Told at reception it because it’s an old building. Seriously? Please lift your game. Facility a bit dated ( bathrooms and kitchens need updating including cookware, knives etc). People who choose apartments generally so as they want to cook.
Location & reception/check in staff were great. Pretty good value.

AustraliaThe slightly odd position of the shower head - it sprays right onto the shelf so you have to angle it away and then you can still bump your hands on the shelf. Really not a big deal though. The air conditioning was a little grubby inside when I turned it on so I turned it off and luckily it wasn't super hot and having the windows and doors open was enough. Sofa bed wasn't overly comfortable but at least there was the extra bed and the apartment was a good temperature so I slept ok.
After reading some of the reviews I booked with a bit of trepidation but I need not have worried our room was clean and really comfortable. The location is great and the kids loved the pool and water slide. The staff were lovely, particularly Greg, who recommended a great fish and chip place for dinner. Also, the ceiling fan in the bedroom was a bonus as most places don't have them and it can get a bit hot. I liked being able to open a window as well. It made the room a comfortable temperature. Overall we had a really lovely stay and we would definitely stay at the Oaks Calypso again.

AustraliaThe owners/managers at reception were quite rude and everytime we went to reception we would be waiting for at least 20 min until we get served because they would have one person on the counter. It’s a busy location - don’t be cheap and hire more staff so your customers don’t have to wait that long. Also if you wanted beach/pool towels you had to go to reception for them - perhaps instead you could have them by the pool area instead.
I loved the old school Coolangatta vibe of the place. The beachy furniture and decor brought me back to my childhood going on holidays here with my family. If your into fancy and modern styled accommodation this wouldn’t be your vibe but for us we loved it! The location is amazing!! The room we were in was right on the esplanade overlooking beach. This place has everything you need - comfy bed, good air conditioning, little kitchen and little laundry.
