Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This lets us know that our reviews come from real guests, like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or quiet room than someone who’s stayed at the property before?
We want you to share your story, both the good and the bad. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.
We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinion and experiences, which are critical in helping guests make well-informed decisions about where to stay.
Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, and are treated with the utmost respect.
Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after being moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.
Once a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.
We will use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content as well as the property replies to that content.
We will allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is that of a distributor of feedback from both guest and property.
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...).

New ZealandNo air con in the bedrooms although having stayed before we knew this would be the case.
On arrival, we were so appreciative of a room switch to a front ocean facing location. This had been our experience several years ago and yet this time the room we were initially offered (at the same cost) was city facing and not of the same quality and spaciousness for 4 adults.

AustraliaWhen I booked an Ocean view I was expecting more than a glimpse from a lower floor level through buildings. Yes my fault I guess for not confirming this.
Whilst the view was a disappointment the unit itself was nice and roomy for 5 people. Courtney on the front desk is a star.

AustraliaThe lack of servicing of the apartments is definitely a negative. In the very least a regular check should be made and essentials supplied. Insufficient toilet paper supplied for one week and it is very unclear in the property information as to whether you are required to purchase your own.

AustraliaWould like to have been informed on arrival that window refurbishments would be taking place in the apartment directly below us (very noisy). Bedside lamps would be very useful. a bottle opener in the kitchen would be handy. the outdoor spa seating was incredibly low or the water level excessively high, as it was impossible to sit in the spa, my hubby is 6ft tall and he was not able to sit without most of his head being underwater

New ZealandOnly gripe really was the rather dirty windows on the kitchen/ dining side, detracted from the lovely views somewhat.
The furnishings were lovely, the beds & pillows were really comfy. I think it had been recently refurbished (new drapes, sheers & carpet?) most of the appliances looked very new too. I loved the view, we were on the 5th floor, but we would have liked to have been higher up, we stayed two years ago & prefered the higher level.The amenities are great, the outdoor pool is set in lovely gardens. The location is awesome very close to Surfers but far enough away from the hussle & bussle! The Northcliffe Surf Lifesaving Club across the road is great, we had some good brekkies there & Acapulco gave us some discount vouchers on arrival to use which may it even better!!
