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...).

The setting is incredible; you can easily walk around and observe a wide variety of animals. Bernadette is incredibly kind and helpful. I was traveling alone, and she provided me with all the support I needed. I would definitely repeat the experience and recommend it to others!

AustraliaThe roads around Marloth park are pretty average however it slows you down so you see even more animals so not a bad thing at all.
Bernadette and her team are super friendly and welcoming. The room was massive and very comfortable and the location is very cool. So close to the river to walk and see the Hippos, Kudu, Mongoose, Impala and more. Bernadette was more than happy to help and answer every question i had even before and after my stay. Will gladly stay there again.

United KingdomOnly the bathroom/toilet situation is a bit awkward as it's not closed fully.
We loved our stay at the lodge, the room was big yet cosy and the bed super comfortable! Just be prepared to hear everything your partner does in the toilet, as the wall isnt fully closed ;) But Bernadette as a host made it all the more great, she was so kind and attentive and made us feel so welcome. She even took the time to drive to meet us in the evening, as the dirt roads were in terrible condition after the heavy rains at the time. I'd highly recommend stating at Serenity for a relaxing and amazing holiday, close to one of the entrances to Kruger as well so locationwise also fab.

The host, from arrival to departure, the lady takes great care of her guests, I've traveled but have never experienced such hospitality. You are doing a great job keep it up. The place, whaoo it was breathtaking I really enjoyed my stay and my kids ask when can we go back. The cleaning staff they are very good the place is always spotless, air-conditioning working very well. The animals roaming around while you having brakefast or chilling by the pool site loved it.

The property was beautiful and clean. The owner was one of the friendliest people I have ever met, and she was extremely helpful in recommending restaurants and places to see. There is a lot of wildlife around the lodge, and there is a nice walk along the river nearby where you can spot elephants and other animals in Kruger.
