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 AfricaThere's nothing I didn't like, it was perfect in every way.
Everything from the view to the luxury comforts, it's literally a little piece of heaven. The hanging chairs and exceptional views were a firm favourite. Cannot recommend staying here highly enough. We had the most magical stay.

South AfricaThe only minor issue was the gravel road that takes you to the cabin but honestly when you get to the cabin you forget about everything else.
The view was ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING. My kids loved the games that was available in the cabin and couldn't get enough of the adorable donkeys. I highly recommend this little piece of heaven as a vacation.

South AfricaThe view... again the view! amazing...amazing view. The serenity of the place will definitely calm you down. Your TV is the nature/the view..away from busy life. If you need to Disconnect a bit...this is the place for you.It's giving " slow leaving" . There are games that you can play as family and books to read. We also loved the pool with a view not to mention the beautiful sunset. Yes, there's that gravel uphill and downhill road you need to drive but definitely worth it. The host sooo friendly and welcoming. The Cabin/cottage soo clean and beautifully decorated.

South AfricaLuckily, we have a 4x4, but perhaps the owner should state that you would not be able to easily access the location without a 4x4, especially if it is raining.
It was absolutely blissful. We enjoyed every second of our stay. It was so incredibly peaceful. Super clean and super comfy. It created a romantic atmosphere with absolute peace. We felt at home, and even though it is self-catering, it really was a bonus to have them making sure the basics were there for all the stuff we forgot about bringing.

It has a beautiful sweeping view of the forrest and mountains. The house is really well equipped and has more than one dining area. Lots of areas to leisure. The couple who own the place are really friendly and went out of their way to help us.

Gorgeous scenery, lovely cottage with lots of comfortable places to sit/lounge. Beds were so comfy too. So much attention to detail. Stunning views, peace and quiet and a very friendly host. We plan to go back and enjoy for even longer next time.

South AfricaBeautiful cottage with such a special view. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. The cottage itself is tastefully decorated - almost straight out of a magazine! We appreciated the attention to detail, from the fans in the room to the extra pairs of reading glasses left on the bookshelf. The area itself is sustainable, eco-friendly, and offers nature walks as well as a cute interaction with the resident donkeys. I would highly recommend Last Light as a holiday spot and will definitely be returning.

United Statesit was hard to get to, 15 minutes on a winding dirt road. it could use a deep clean under the beds and in corners. it would have been nice to have little more storage in the bedroom.
the views were amazing. the decor was nice. the little things like cards and candles were a treat.
