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...).

Well positioned. Absolutely best position possible. When needed to contact owner - immediate response. House had everything that was needed. Comfortable beds. Heating worked well. Plenty of towels. Could go on and on. Just perfect. Even when the ferry was cancelled back to the mainland - very understanding and gave a discounted rate for the additional time here.

AustraliaThe upstairs sliding door - right hand side - felt like it wasn't on the rails properly which made it hard to open let alone close, so we left it closed. The kettle needs replacing as there seems to be a lot of rust inside. I found one bowl that hadn't been washed properly. Took photo just in case. Sink tap in ensuite seems to be leaking slowly. I guess these are more maintenance issues.
The property was huge and very spacious. Plenty of bedrooms for a whole family. The views were gorgeous and it was wonderful to wake up to the ocean waves and seeing dolphins every morning. The proximity to sealing was fabulous and nothing seemed too far away. My partner and I only used the upstairs area, and were barely there because there was so much to see and do but we loved our stay and would definitely go back again.

The view was outstanding, the facilities were excellent. The quality of sheets and towels. Attention to detail: quality toilet paper, shampoo and conditioner provided etc. Close to pub, cafes and IGA. They even had a fishing rod to use. The BBQ was excellent but was not a 8 person size it was a Weber Q, it was not a problem and cooked perfectly. The host was responsive and accomodating!

AustraliaIf we could access the garage. It would be good . But it’s not an issue . Just a suggestion .
This property is in a fantastic location, right on the seafront and just 3–4 minutes’ drive from the ferry terminal. The convenience of being within walking distance to the visitor information center and local shops made our stay incredibly easy and enjoyable. From the front balcony, we could see dolphins and whales, which was an unforgettable experience. The sunsets were absolutely amazing, and the views overall were stunning. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

FranceAccess was not great. We didn’t receive the code and the mobile phone was not working well Entry has to be made from the backdoor. When you arrive at night this is not very intuitive and it took us 1h and we had to borrow a phone in a pub to solve the problem Requirements when you leave are tight (actually you almost have to do the cleaning yourself) which was a bit surprising
Big house Well located close to the ferry and to Penneshaw where you will find everything you need Good choice to spend a few nights on the island
