Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
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.).

AustraliaLovely pool villa with enough space for our family of 4. Villa has anything you need for a comfortable stay. Big nice kitchen with all amenities you need including dishwasher. Our host Brian was so helpful and friendly. He lives next door and he’s very responsive. I highly recommend this lovely place to families and small group of friends.

AustraliaIf it was peak season, the location is good to be out of the busy areas but also might be better to be closer to town so it’s easier to walk to things. We liked being further out. But some may want to be close to main PD.
Good communication, local tips etc, great place to relax after long days out, warm pool, comfortable, kitchen space is great to cook, local area is nice, very close to a few cafes and beach (but not the swimming end). The owner is very knowledgeable and helpful.

AustraliaNothing to do with the property, but with the beach at the property. The stretch of the beach is used as a toilet for dogs. When we watched the sunrise, I counted 5 dogs taking a dump and the owners didn’t bother to clean up. And it was only within a period of 30 minutes… I dread to think what happens throughout the day. Watch your step on the beach.
Simply put - a piece of Paradise…

We stayed at the property with my husband and I, my daughter, her husband and 2 children. Brian provided a pull out couch and extra single bed and we did not feel crowded at all. Oasis is perfectly located and the house is very well equipped with everything you need. The outdoor area and pool is large and spacious with beautiful loungers and even pool toys for the kids. We cooked Christmas dinner in the kitchen and used the large bbq which was provided to cook a barbecue on one of the nights. Will definitely stay here again.

AustraliaCheryl and Brian are great hosts and a lovely couple, who make you feel very welcome and are always happy to assist requests or give advice, but also respects ones privacy. Oasis on Nautilus is exactly that. It’s all you need in a tropical escape. It is well looked after, very clean, nicely decorated and is your own quiet, private oasis to escape too. We loved our stay and will be back. Thank you.

AustraliaThe Sheraton end of Port Douglas, so car is needed to make it easy. Less great second room for teenage kids - better suited for younger kids. Close to beach, but in Stinger season the safe netted area is at opposite end of beach.
Great tucked away spot that is really private with your own pool. Separate property and not part of any resort. Everything is provided, including kitchen basics which is great. Good ensuite shower room with master bedroom.

One of our favourite ever stays. Beautiful , spacious home with a gorgeous private pool area. Kids were in heaven. Cheryl and Brian were lovely hosts and checked we were happy with everything and let us check in early - much appreciated. Spotless, full of thoughtful touches like freezer packs and a thermo bag to borrow for a picnic. Comfy beds, lovely and quiet. We’ve already recommended to a friend! Thanks for having us!
