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 AfricaGarage parking for our Mazda CX5 was too small to use. Other parking in the complex is limited. Unit has 3 floors, the stairs can be quite steep and dangerous for very young children.
Property location was excellent, perfect sea view, easy access to beach. Unit was tastefully decorated and all furniture/appliances provided for a comfortable stay.

South AfricaThe dedicated garage is a little too small for a bakkie, so the garage door is not able to close but the location of this parking is good, so it is no trouble getting in and out. The outside bath did not have a bath plug but one could use the inside bath's plug as it fitted. The overflow opening of the inside bath was clocked and there was a little bit of hair in the drain openings of both bath.
The friendliness of the host, outside bath, the top level penthouse effect, the view, bed and bedding in the main bedroom, the swimmingpool and location was exceptional.

South AfricaThe towels and bedding had stains on. It was probably clean, but you don't want to wonder about things like that. We stayed 2 nights and there wasn't enough toiletpaper supplied. Not enough sharp knives. Very few glasses although host brought some. If you prefer a nice wine glass, rather take your own with. Water marks running down walls reported. Wifi passwords provided but not the login name.
Proximity to sea! Beautiful view and sound of the waves!

South AfricaThere would not have been a trip if the owner was honest enough to state that this place was without water for 2 weeks & counting. We kept on getting told that water will be back either that afternoon or tomorrow but after chatting with some other people in the vicinity they were without water for 2 weeks. We could not continue our vacation there with all the water issues. I am yet to be reimbursed. Really don't want to think about it. If only we were told upfront about the area being without water for weeks then I should have not gone ahead with this booking. Really disappointing.

South AfricaAll the stairs in the unit that doesn't get mentioned in the advert. The photos on booking.com is way more promising than the actual place. The place is not safe with all the stairs for small kids as the stairs are very small and no bars in front of windows that opens widely. Wont rent it again and wont refer anybody.

South AfricaWhere do I start. The apartment was not cleaned properly. The upstairs bath tub stained. Blinds in the rooms were broken. The Bed linen were miss matched and not cleaned. Had to be changed the next day. A blanket was stuffed into a pillow case. The pictures are very deceiving. Three floors. Not suitable for families with kids, very dangerous. Only one toilet on the second floor. Not enough glasses. No steak knives. Basically this kitchen is not well equipped. No air conditioning. Fans were not cleaned in decades.
The location was perfect. The pool was a bonus.

Blinds are broken/missing in both rooms, light shines in at night. Ceiling fan dirty. Braai grid dirty on arrival - so much for hygiene. TV in bedroom but NO plug (not sure who travels with an extension chord). No Broom to sweep sand after a few days at the beach (visibly locked away.)
