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...).

South AfricaA fan or two would have been welcome during the first very hot days. No broom to do basic cleaning.
The location was superb. The layout of the chalet suited our family. The fact that the unites are spread out, makes it very private and special. The waterhole 30m from the stoep drew many welcome visitors. The children enjoyed the hot and cold pool in our area.

South AfricaThere didn't seem to be enough hot water at the unit for everyone to enjoy a hot shower.
The place is ideal for families; our granddaughter had a blast at the pools and then in the evenings watching the animals walk past the unit, and the bushbabies were a wonderful surprise every night.

South AfricaAll the crockery was dirty, the pots (not a big selection and are very heavy) were full of dirt inside, the severing bowls were full of thatch and the jugs looked like they hadn't been washed in a VERY long time. The thatch was also busy being re-done which was not indicated to me. The old thatch had the house extremely dirty (and thatch carries lice!) as well as the Bush baby's living in the thatch (no problem with that) but as we arrived there was poop on the main bedrooms sheet.
Absolutely gorgeous house with lovely view, looks smaller than the pictures but has the watering hole right infront of the house! Had lots of animals come visit! Solar lights were put up for loadshedding which helped a lot!

South AfricaThe kitchen needs alot of cleaning. The oven and microwave was so dirty that one really can't use it and the load shedding level 6 made it very difficult when it came to preparing food.
The house was very neat except for the kitchen as stated below. The staff at the resort was very friendly and helpful

South AfricaThe unit needs to be properly cleaned!! And the appliances checked to make sure they all in good condition. As Load Shedding is a norm, guests should be advised in order to be prepared especially since we are not locals and we were not made aware until we arrived!
