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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

South AfricaWow. That's all I can say. We didn't want to go up river, we decided to stay at the jetty. But it was such an amazing experience everyone has to try it. The staff there are totally amazing. Thank you Romel and Deirdre for the most amazing experience. Thank you for spoiling us. We will be doing it again.

South AfricaIt was exceptionally hot, and there was only small windows to open. So the heat was a bit difficult to handle. An aircon would have made the worlds difference.
We loved being alone, in nature and having the kayak as transport. We loved sleeping on the water and having an adventure with the family. The walking trail closeby, and the little beach was a great outing. The hosts were exceptionally friendly, helpfull and FUN! The nice bottle of wine and bluetooth speaker was a great plus.

South AfricaNothing - not to like - everything was perfect from the 1st to the last second.
It was quiet - clean and comfortable- the Hosts Deidre and her fiancé are focused on a personal service to the guests and will bed over backwards to accommodate you where ever it is within their power to do so. Lovely vibe at the Tikibar and beach if you don’t want to stay on the boat the whole day - lots to do - the best sleep I had in ages. Well done guys - we will definitely be seeing you soon. Brilliant brilliant amazing experience.

South AfricaWe loved every minute of our Baby Blue weekend- unique, relaxing and special. We were so comfortable on the boat and spent many happy hours soaking up the sunshine and saturating our senses in the beauty and tranquility of river paradise. Welcome cocktails and food at the Riverside were delicious, as were the wine and snacks that we were spoilt with by our lovely hosts. We will definitely plan another Baby Blue adventure and stay for a little bit longer next time.

Well, where do I begin. On arrival at 'The Riverside Water Sports Bar', we were met by our hosts, Romel and Deidre, the most welcoming couple. We were treated like royalty, with service beyond our expectations. Baby Blue was ready, and we all went aboard. What a great surprise awaited us! The little houseboat is adorable. The décor and ambience were out of a fairy tale. Professionalism and responsibility flowed naturally, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment of our stay. The Baby Blue Houseboat is well fitted out, and we couldn’t have asked for a more romantic setting. Our hosts were only a phone call away if we needed anything. Giving us peace of mind and adding to the 'just chill out' factor. Our stay on 'Baby Blue' will be at the top of the list of places to be recommended by us to our friends. Romel and Deidre, what amazing people! What an amazing experience! Baby Blue is just so special; beyond all our expectations, she will steal your heart away. 10 out of 10 ;) Well done to you all.

GermanyThe whole experience was just amazing, from the warm and kind welcome by the owners to boarding the little boat to experience an evening under the stars in your own private little boat. The boat itself is comfortable and very clean., the bed is excellent.
Quaint, clean, ultra friendly owners. We loved our stay, it was a magical experience.
