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 AfricaI liked the location, it's a couple of minutes away from the beach. The place is super quiet and private, there is no noise in the complex. The owner also keeps to their space and gives you as the tenant the freedom to move about without feeling like you're monitored. Super nice place, highly recommended.

South AfricaNote they dont supply soap, toiletries of any sort The accommodation, whilst very adequate is not 5 star - main bed needs upgrading - fridge is old but functioning, Breakfast is not included in the price but was offered if required.
We loved our stay - location is great, facilities - great pool and parking under shade at your door. The host was amazing - friendly, helpful and very obliging - couldn't do enough for us. The hostess was away and her husband did everything possible to make sure we had everything we needed.

South AfricaThe restroom is quiet small, and it is a tight fit to close the door. The refrigerator was, unfortunately, leaking, which resulted in a wet floor. Furthermore, the television's operating system appears to be outdated, and an upgrade would be beneficial for navigating and viewing channels. Regrettably, I was only able to access YouTube.

South AfricaEverything
Nothing. It was absolutely unacceptable. What I saw on the Booking.com website was not what we saw in reality. We took pictures of the accommodation and left immediately we called the owner and informed him of our decision. He said that we must contact Booking.com for a refund. I went online the same evening and logged a complaint. Twice. I have then called your Support number and spoke to 2 different consultants. No resolution yet. To which email address can I send the pictures we took? If there is no resolution, I will take this to Hello Peter and post our experience on Facebook and other social media platforms

South AfricaWhen you open the freezer section, the rubber above that was quiet dirty. The toilet is quiet small, the 80 year old man I was with couldn't wipe his bottom. The sunlight soap was terribly watered down, but Kay was kind to top up a bit for us.
The location great, hospitality awesome, Kay was the best. Having the wifi modem in the room was good, many pots and appliances. The aircon and fan lovely, your manager also very kind, very nice size cottage, plenty packing space. Your manager kindly swopped a sleeper couch for a bed and that was fabulous tx again for that. The heat was nuts and he allowed me to use the poop for a few minutes before allocated time, that was greatly appreciated.
