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...).

South AfricaJust we saw gowns on the photos and assumed it was part of the package but didn't find any in the rooms and no pool towels as per advertisement too
The place is amazing, the views are to die for,and it was so clean and though there wasn't any staff members, everything was laid out in such a way it was easy for us navigate around on our own, we loved the privacy too as we had the whole Villa to ourselves, wish I could stay longer too.

South AfricaIt could be a plumbing issue or something else- but the humid - not so pleasant smell from the bathroom that room 1&3 use- that should be looked into. It could be an easy fix- but definitely worth looking into. Would also recommend a deep/thorough cleaning of the other areas of the villa other than just the bedrooms at least every other day/ once a week (depending on how busy it is).
They have done really well with the layout and general upkeep of this beautiful villa. The staff was friendly and attentive.

South AfricaBetter communication from kitchen staff. Especially around coffee and juice. None was offered, and it was not clear whether we could help ourselves or not. Only after we have been seated for a while, and eventually asked for some juice, it was borught to us. I would suggest a coffee and juice station, to make it obvious that guests can help themselves to it, as currenlty you have to go into the kitchen area and fridge to get it, which normally, a guest will not do at a guesthouse, as it would feel a bit intrusive for a guest to go where the kitchen staff is busy working.
Overall stay was very enjoyable. The house and pool is beautiful. Breakfast was a little underwhelming. The food was good, but the people serving can take a bit long, and can improve their communication. Still cannot understand why we had to go and sit at the long table to eat, when we were perfectly happy at the smaller tables. That was a little weird. But other than that, no complaints.

South AfricaI didn't like the fact that we were not provided with white towels, and the water was could in the m orning when we had to take a shower and also there is no YouTube, we could not play music due to that.
I like the set-up of our room, and the view by the pool side. It really has a great view and peaceful and sweet workers

South Africarequires basic maintenance and upkeep, the place is ageing, and is of average cleanliness (poor-condition showerhead)—with little effort, it can return to the 9.5 status of 2017.

South AfricaIt is in need of maintenance. The deck area was not neat. Chairs just standing around. Pond/ fountain at pool was green and dirty. When we checked in there were dirty cups standing around. Wifi was not working in the room at all. Room was advertised as presidential suite of 92sqm which it definitely was not.
The photos looked beautiful and the views were nice.

ItalyWhen I made the reservation I informed that I was allegic to gluten and I asked for a gluten free breakfast and the owner replied that it was not a problem. In the morning there was no breakfast at all. The shower drain was clogged and in 2 minutes the bathroom flooded. this should have beek checked by the owner before receiving guests.

South AfricaWhen they say unit with an external private bathroom, it does not mean you have your own unit without ensuite. It means you go across the passage where everyone else passes through to get to their rooms. Think commune, but the bathroom across the passage is for your own private use. The carpet needs some serious deep cleaning. Other than than that we had a great stay.
It is exactly as on the pictures. Absolutely stunning villa. The staff is just amazing, the breakfast was delicious and the cereals are available for free. Breathtaking views
