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...).

AustraliaThere was insufficient parking for an allocated parking space. The room floors were sticky with cleaning product residue.
Good views from the balcony over Golden Beach. The room had all the facilities we required and there were good restaurants close by. The road at the front of the property was a quiet local street.

AustraliaEverything was great; due to location of room on a walkway meant it was a little noisy when neighbours closed their doors early in the morning.
The view across Golden Beach to Caloundra was beautiful. The room had a large balcony and a good sized living area. The bathroom was spacious with a spa tub and over bath shower. Kitchen facilities were adequate for 2 nights but a little small; we were aware that it was a kitchenette, although a coffee pod machine would have been great. Decent sized fridge, kettle, toaster and hotplate made breakfast easy.

AustraliaI agreed to attend the presentation which really had great offer and would love to do in the future. But they were quite pushy, to the point that it got unpleasant. I do understand sales is the job. Appreciated the voucher and wine though (:
Modern, beautiful view from the room and it’s fully equipped! Lovely staff, lots of perks as a guest as hotel is affiliated with many tours and spots in the area.

AustraliaThe mattress in my room was too firm for my liking. The undercover secure parking isn’t allocated - when I checked in the reception staff said that sometimes people park 2 cars down there but they’re not meant to. There is “overflow” parking at the back of the building which isn’t secure. I came home after dinner both nights and there were no undercover parks left, resulting in me having to park outside. As a paying guest I didn’t appreciate having to park outdoors and walk back in the dark as a single female, I didn’t feel particularly safe. If you can’t get people to do the right thing with the secure parking, then it should be allocated bays to make it fair.
Customer service was excellent - staff were all very friendly and helpful. Great location. Room was quite dated but well maintained and cleaning standards were excellent.

AustraliaJust a personal opinion, but the bed was very hard and only a large double in size. I think the room could accommodate a larger (softer) bed.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Fabulous view, great location. Lots of facilities available. Close proximity to shops, cafes, and restaurants. Loved it and will definitely stay here again.

AustraliaThe bed was uncomfortable, too short and too firm. The room had a musty smell and fixtures needed a refresh. Towels were stained but we complained and they got exchanged. Pool was crowded and too small for the hotel's size.
Room was large and well furnished. Great view of the beach and water on a high level floor. Hotel is in a quiet location and away from noisy traffic.

AustraliaThe air conditioning had a damp smell. It may have been because of the rain in the area, or maybe it just needs a service. It the end it was fine, because the location is right on the beach so we just turned it off and were cooled by the amazing sea breeze.
The view was lovely, the location was quiet, the facilities were great! Great spot for sure. Lovely sea breeze, great kitchen and bathroom. Modern and renovated room. Wish there was a king bed, but queen was ok.

AustraliaThe swimming pool is a lot smaller than it looks in the photos. We stayed during off peak period and while there were enough sunbeds, the pool itself was crowded with a couple of young families and their kids. Wish more hotels offered a separate kids pool so child free adults can enjoy the facilities also.
The resort is super clean and the rooms surprisingly big! The beds are very comfy. Great location, close to cafes and IGA. The sunset views are superb! The resort offers good facilities, including a small games room and pool and a tennis court.
