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...).

United StatesThe washer & dryer were a great amenity and we were very thankful to use, but found them to be somewhat loud even with medium loads. The TV was a bit difficult to operate.
Great views! Comfy beds. Loved that the beach was just a couple minutes’ walk away. Kitchen was fairly well equipped. Was not prepared for the bbq to be a flat top instead of a grill, but we found a workaround.

United StatesThe only drawback was the stairs, because I have bad knees. But it was worth it!
The house was awesome. The sun room with the ocean view was my absolute favorite!

United StatesWe got a blanket out of the cupboard and it had stains and smelled dirty. When we sat for dinner, there was only three forks in the house. My daughter found some vhs movies but we couldn't figure out how to switch inputs.
Great location, close to the beach. It was a nice, cozy house.

United StatesOk...this is going to be a bit rough. I am a fair assessor and I use reviews for most online purchases and/or decisions, so I believe in an honest review. We knew from the photos that this property is a bit outdated and not fancy - no problem. I don't need things to be "nice" but I do need them to be clean and fully operational - this property was neither. Upon arrival the whole house smelled bad - really bad like dirty mop water and musty walls. We opened all the windows to try to clear things out a bit. As we started looking around more, it was clear why it smelled so bad. I don't think this place has had a deep clean in well over 6 months. This started a string of texts inspired by the one I received from Vacasa, who actually manages this property, asking for a 1 to 5 rating for cleanliness. Well, I gave it a 3 which was then later reduced to a 2 as I kept looking around. Whenever I asked for someone to come back and clean possibly, I was told it was forwarded to the local team. I realized on day 2 that wasn't going to happen so I went to the Dollar General (awesome, by the way), got some cleaning supplies, and got to work. I didn't want to clean on vacation, but I also couldn't have my family staying in this place seeing what I had seen. We checked the beds for bed bugs because of the lack of cleanliness around the rest of the house -that says something. Additionally, the shower drain was so backed up that the floor pan would fill and overflow within minutes (there is good water pressure, haha). You could see from the water marks on the floor that this had been an issue for a while as well. Vacasa did end up sending out a plumber on the 3rd day, we appreciated that.
The house is cute and quaint and the location is fantastic! If the house had been clean and the shower drain working, my rating would be very different. The enclosed front porch was one of my favorite places to sit and read with peek-a-boo views of the ocean. The little front patio is also a really nice place to sit and relax. You can bring your dog, which is a huge bonus! Overall, I would not stay here again. Rockaway beach resort is right across the street, just as old, but clean, and they allow pets now. Vacasa did these things well: The key code was correct but there was no key in the box. We had to call Vacasa and speak with someone who gave us a code for a secondary box which worked. The key was in there. After hearing that the shower was continuously overflowing, they contacted the property owner and approved a plumber to fix the problem.

United StatesMy only complaint was that I had thought this house was right on the beach. That was my own misunderstanding. It is super close though and even has a little bit of an ocean view.
We loved staying here! Having a washer and dryer was a must with all the rainy/windy weather we had during our stay.

United StatesI moved the smaller couch over to have a clear view of the tele to watch a movie and found a half dissolved white tablet that one of my dogs could have got a hold of. I swept the pill up with enough dirt and sand to acknowledge the floors had also not been cleaned. Scrubbed some kind of liquid drip of food in the fridge so I wouldn’t get dinged for it. Then one of my dogs kept trying to get under the master bed where I found two paper bowls with one having dried food stuck to the side that he must have ate and had diarrhea the rest of the weekend. Let the owner walking his dog behind the place one day. Then find dog poop the next day that wasn’t from my dogs but picked it up so I wouldn’t get blamed for it. It was a lovely sunny weekend but no chairs to sit outside. No outdoor fire pit as advertised or any rémanents of one so literally (?) how can you advertise? The parking instructions text to you literally instruct you to park in the neighbors spot and the only sign you get is one picture instruction where the coat hang rack is that you would miss checking in at 4pm in the winter at dusk until you remove coat after trying to puzzle it out with the accommodating nice neighbor because your spot has no identifier than « Vacasa » and numbers that don’t correspond with the address or anything the next afternoon. They send wifi info that’s absolutely false. Check the back of the modem for actual info.
It was close to the beach and adequate size. The closed Sun porch was lovely and do was the indoor fire.
