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.).

South AfricaWe liked everything and everything was well maintained, clean and well presented. No negative comments.
It is a fantastic cozy unit, very well equipped with everything you need, especially the kitchen. The host is very friendly and helpful and welcomed us with a home baked bread with butter and fig jam. There was ample tea, coffee and milk available and the owner even made firewood and fire starters available with on additional charges. The owner personally showed us around and was always available to check if we needed anything. The unit is very per friendly in a closed garden, so you do not have to worry about your fur baby. The bed was super comfortable.

South AfricaThere was nothing we could complain about.
We were greeted with open arms by the host - Oom Daan. Nothing is too much to ask and they go above and beyond to make sure their guests have a comfortable stay. The place is spotless, which for us is important. Everything in the place is comfortable and you need nothing, everything is provided. Their attention to detail is superb! This is the place to stay...you will be treated to the best homemade bread that Oom Daan lovingly bakes for his guests.

South AfricaKeep in mind that the weather was terrible which make the following worse; 1. The driveway was only grass which make it quite difficult as it was slippery when it is raining 2. The driveway gate
. We rent it specific because it was pet friendly and there was enough space being fenced off where our dog could walk.

South AfricaOne can't find fault in this place.
The host welcomed us with a warm homemade bread and jam, such a friendly person. Explained everything in the flat and even to how things worked. Such a lovely neat and tidy place will definitely recommend this place and close to everything in Dana Bay. One can see the owner has a passion for his work and place. Well done. We were kept up to date every day wrt the Load shedding, weather etc.

South AfricaTo make it perfect : A small fence to separate cottage from front garden and gate would be helpful and more relaxing for guests with lively dogs and quite easily achieved as it is half fenced already. The design and materials used in the cottage are creative and quite quirky, thought out by obviously creative people. I would prefer a bathroom door though and the shower floor I found a little rough on the feet although bathroom otherwise comfortable and extremely clean.
Daan and Elize were helpful and attentive before and during our stay - very hospitable hosts. It can be stressful travelling with dogs and they made us feel that ours were welcome despite them running all over the place. The cottage is part of their homely property in the stunning suburb of Dana Bay. Everything one needs in a cottage has been thought of. There is some backup for load shedding (gas ring stove and some lighting). Very comfortable bed and the sound of the sea made for a great sleep. Tea, coffee, rusks, toiletries and other thoughtful touches were provided.
