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 AfricaWe liked everything. It suited our needs perfectly.
We absolutely loved staying at Ocean Bay. The staff were exceptionally warm and welcoming. The property was blissfully peaceful; instead of the hustle and bustle one finds at hotels, this place was lovely and calm. We arrived at dinner time and pre-ordered a meal, which was the best bobotie we have eaten to date...It was so great to be able to arrive, eat and head straight to our room after an evening flight. Location-wise, we were literally around the corner from Pearson High School, where our tournament was taking place. The whole neighbourhood is quiet and well maintained (generally safe, in SA terms). Also very central to great shopping centers, to the beach and restaurants...Everything you could need is close by. And about 8- 10 mins from the airport....We won't hesitate to return.

United KingdomI think they could elevate the breakfast. A variety of coffee choices would definitely be desirable! Possibly offer avocado etc. That said the fruit and yoghurt with nuts and honey is simply delicious.
The property is stunning, really well thought out, and has everything you could need.

South AfricaI cannot write anything negative about the place, it is truly a stunning location and very pleasant for a quiet getaway and solo travellers.
It was a quiet part of Summerstrand, secure and private. The facilities were stunning, homely environment and staff that was available but not intrusive. Stunning place, and thoughtful room design with plugs in all the right places!

South AfricaDid the price you paid match the expectations you had when you booked? - with regard to this one it would be beneficial on the website if the host can indicate which rooms has a bath and which ones have showers ( when I booked I wanted a room with a bath but was given one with the shower - I am not complaining it's just I would have really loved the bath tub) - Also if possible please offer no breakfast options as well (I only realised when I got there that it was B&B)
The serenity of my room and the fact that I could walk right into the pool (well it was cold and I could not really go in - but it was a plus - and also the outdoor patio(very beautiful and peaceful)
