Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

AustraliaThe showers spray in all directions with minimal pressure. In the end, we spent more time in the shower because it took longer to wash! And water went everywhere. Relatively minor issue but it would have been a nicer stay if the shower was good.
Easy arrival, house ready when we arrived. The house is very peaceful and relaxing. The best part is the stunning view. Nice and clean with good kitchen appliances. The deck was the perfect spot to relax and read a book.

AustraliaWe arrived quite late and there were no lights on at the house. The sign for Kona is angled away from the direction you approach from and so we missed the house. We found the other houses but the owner was away so we then drove out and saw the sign for Kona on our way back. The check in instructions were a bit vague. The shower was very water saving and not really very good.
Beautiful views from the property are stunning and a large and comfortable house.

AustraliaNothing much - perhaps a larger scale map of the area to highlight the walking trails/vehicle trails to the coast?
The location away from the main road combined with terrific farm based accommodation made it a great place for a long weekend family break. Our host had everything ready for us upon arrival. While there, we successfully cooked a birthday meal for 11 people at Nat's Retreat and had plenty of room to move around. The views from the balconies were fabulous and the native birds around the house provided color and movement.

AustraliaOnly issue we had was final access to property which was via farm track. There had been rain prior to our arrival so this may have had some bearing on track condition. Using a non 4x4 vehicle was pretty challenging.
Antechamber Bay-Kona is located in one of the most picturesque spots I have ever visited. Views were spectacular,facilities were good. If you crave peace and quiet and a chance to relax then this is for you.
