How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The parking spaces are a bit tight! Had to try really hard not to crash into a wall or car.
The apartment was amazing. I was there to surf and I loved soaking my tired body in either the spa or my bath between surfs. The washing machine and dryer were also very handy because I go through so many towels and bathing suits. The kitchen was well equipped. I was travelling on my own, but could imagine my partner and kids having a great time at this accommodation

The upstairs bedroom is not enclosed, as in it doesn't have walls and thus is open to the downstairs. It's cool, but lacks privacy. Another thing is that their was heating, but cooling was only ceiling fans, which were enough for downstairs, but the upstairs "open" bedroom was cooking in the nook of the roof without means to cool it.
Great apartment for the cost. Spacious, well equipped and clean. In the enclosed courtyard there is a pool and spa bath. You're also a 10-minute walk away from the city centre with a lot of options for restaurants and plenty of shopping. Within a 5 minute drive there are the supermarkets.

Open second story hallway overlooking kiitchen was a bit tricky to manage with 6 year old twins who realised they could throw things over it. In hindsight single story may have been better for us to choose. Unit nonetheless very nice.
Proximity to beach. Hot spa. Good amenities. Easy parking.

The gardens were beautiful. The staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and well set out.Liked the option of using the fans in the rooms rather than aircon. Just one suggestion, although it may have just been excitement when we arrived as the unit was much more than we expected is putting things back where they came from (remotes ect.). I am hoping we did okay. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

We had a two bedroom apartment and whilst the main bedroom looked onto the pool the front bedroom was next to the main road which went into Byronbay shops and beach so my friend and myself found it very noisy especially early in the morning. Therefore, we couldn’t have the window open and our fan was too noisy to keep on during the night. However would definitely stay again.
I had family and friends from UK with me. They really enjoyed their stay. Loved the great location, close to all shops, restaurants and beach. Lovely pool, underground parking. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Nice size apartment with everything you need for your stay. Good little starter pack supplied for guests, as in bathroom and kitchen supplies. Loved the fact we were so close to town, took less than five minutes to stroll into town, so perfect location. Very lean and comfortable.
