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 are 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 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.).

AustraliaWe originally booked a non poolside cabin and we arrived and it was average. It was run down and didn’t feel like a holiday location at all and it felt grubby. We then paid for an upgrade to a poolside cabin. The main bed in the poolside cabin was only a double.
Gorgeous pool and view from the poolside cabins. Staff were very helpful and accommodating.

AustraliaThe general look of the park was quite tired looking. Most cabins In need of a good paint. Gutters were blocked, rain unable to escape. Some cabins were over grown and quite neglected.
Amenities block was very clean and comfortable. Swimming pools were great. The Cafe/ Restaurant was a great bonus.

AustraliaTo try pick something I didn’t like is hard. Lighting was a little dark in cabin and light switch locations were a little hard to find. But that is such a minor thing. Bunks were a little tricky to get in and out of.
A friendly young couple served Dutch pancakes for breakfast and they were amazing. We had taken our own food but if we went again and now we know they are there morning, lunch and dinner we would eat from their eatery. The pool was so much fun for the kids and especially that we could watch them from the verandah of our cabin. We didn’t get the best weather the weekend we were there but the kids still had such a great time in the pool. There was a train (tractor) ride, a movie on at night in the entertainment building, a games room, large outdoor chess, putt putt and fishing or canoeing if you wanted.

AustraliaFairly dated, could use updating. Ducks poo all around the pool and splash park edges, maintenance hoses it into the pools early in the morning with a high pressure hose. Most guests would still be sleeping and not see this. It’s a little concerning especially as little ones play in the water too.
Good location, good play areas for children.
