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 had 2 units for a large family gathering. The airconditioning in one of the units was not working properly. It was January in Queensland, very hot and uncomfortable. Some staff disregarded our complaints, others tried to help with a portable air conditioner in one bedroom. Overall this affected our enjoyment of the extended weekend stay and made it very difficult to sleep. The initial response from our complaint was very unsatisfactory.
Fantastic pool area, BBQ, tennis court, opposite a calm beach and a park nearby. Nice walking path along the waterfront. We enjoyed the warm spa, and kids spent hours in the pool and on the slide.

AustraliaNothing, we had a great time. We did unluckily have a power outage for approx 18 hours ish. But they had a backup generator so the lifts worked and some corridor lighting. The staff let us know what happened and we saw Energex working through the night fixing the issue. We cooked our dinner on the BBQs at the beach and our boys thought it was all a big adventure, so it wasn't a big inconvenience.
Loved the pool, it was so well maintained and the lush gardens around it are so well kept. The 2 bed apartment was spacious and very comfortable.

AustraliaWe had 2x3br apartments for extended family. The air-conditioning in one apartment wasn't working. Checked in just in time to rush out to a birthday dinner so didn't realise straight away. As it was a public holiday on day 2, we notified reception the following morning. They treated us like idiots and said of course it can't cope in the heat, but the other unit was good - we spent most of the time either at the pool or all in the other unit, which was very crowded. Eventually got hold of an after hours number and they brought a portable air conditioner. A slight improvement but still very uncomfortable for 3 nights, considering the price for a 3BR, very disappointing. And aircon doesn't reach main bedroom in either unit.
The pool is amazing. It entertained adults and kids for hours, caters from littlies to adults and all in between. It has a slide, water play area, platform for jumping and diving from in the deep end and a warm spa. Nice, well kept resort grounds, BBQ, undercover eating area by the pool, sun lounges, tennis court, easy access to the nearby park and beach. There is an Indian Restaurant on site and plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby.

AustraliaI liked everything
The hotel was walking distance to shops, beach and park if you have kids. The water slide in the pool was a hit with small and big kids. One bedroom Apartment was very roomy and had a big balcony could see the pool and ocean. Indian restaurant on site if you like that food. Didn’t get to try it although it was always busy. Only opened at night times.

AustraliaCould use a deep clean and dust of the rooms (bed head and picture frames with dust caked on) and a shame no air con in the bedroom as made sleeping very hot on 38deg days. Ac in lounge room didn’t reach through to bedroom very well but worked well to cool lounge area of apartment.
Love the location being quiet and so close to the beach with a little one is amazing! The pool and slide also was a winner for my toddler!

New ZealandOur A/C didn’t work. Took a couple days for them to pop in a portable A/C which worked ok as the door needed to be propped open for ventilation. All units could do with an upgrade but very comfortable otherwise. My hubby was having coffee on the deck with our small daughter watching a crow and got yelled at by management not to feed it… which he wasn’t… not super nice to be yelled at at 6 in the morning for something you’re not doing. But otherwise they were great and helped us as best they could.
Location is hard to beat. Close to everything but not amoungst a super busy crowd. Rooms were a good size

AustraliaThe hotel lobby and lift were both very hot, maybe aircon be put in/turned on would be ideal. And was only 1 aircon to service our 3 bedroom unit, but after running for a couple hours it cooled down to a comfortable temperature.
Wonderful beachfront access, spacious big room, wonderful facilities, lovely temperature pool. Lovely helpful staff. Walking distance to shops/medical centre etc.

New ZealandThere was no aircon in the bedroom, only a ceiling fan, which made it a stuffy and uncomfortable to sleep. Had to sleep with the door open and crank up the aircon in the lounge to try and get some cold air into the bedroom.
Pool was great, and nice to have a spapool as well. Great view from the room onto the pool area. Room was very big, plenty of space for 2 people. Free underground parking was super handy.

Franklyspeaking
AustraliaWe had requested for a cot for the infant which was not arranged and since we checked in after hours, we were told to check with someone in the morning. So we had to make some space on the floor for our 2 year old to sleep. (but to be honest that worked really well at the end of the day). It is not a hotel with a full fledged reception or staff walking around, so we did not spot anyone at the reception when we walked around it a couple of times. Since we stayed here for only 2 nights, we did not bother trying hard for a baby cot for the second night.
This overall stay was Good. We booked a 1 bedroom apartment and stayed here with family (including an infant). We enjoyed the heated jacuzzi by the pool but the actual swimming pool itself was not temperature controlled and it was quite cold for us. We did not really interact with any staff at all to be honest as our key was placed in the locker for after hours check in (which was quite seamless). The apartment was really beautiful with fully functioning equipment everywhere.

AustraliaOur only fault this visit, was the old can opener that didn't work and the lack of child-friendly cups/ bowls etc.
Location is perfect for young families, right on the beach and close to essential shops. The pool and spa area is always clean and well maintained, and the staff are friendly and helpful. We continue to return here year after year, as it's also good value for money.
