How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewSurroundings and facilities within the complex were good. Location at palm cove was terrific.
The apartment was not clean - the bed was very uncomfortable - the apartment was not well stocked for a week long stay - there was no controls for the a/c units I.e they were either on or off - unused tv unit left inside the wardrobe in the bedroom took up a lot of room, couldn’t understand why it was in there. No one instruction for appliances. Not all lights operated.

Verified reviewThe property is in a great location, an easy walk down to the Palm Cove esplanade. There are 3 pools, one is over 50m in length which is great for lap swimming (but they are all a bit cold - no heating). The lush tropical gardens are really well cared for. The room itself is spacious and very clean. The hosts were responsive. We had no wifi in the room and they helped with a dongle until NBN serviceman arrived.
Quality of sleep is very important to me. We had a 2bdr apartment (no.45). The bed in the main bedroom was like sleeping on concrete with metal springs in it. I had to move into a single bed in the same room as my son which is not how I would like to spend my holiday. My husband grabbed a cushion from the daybed to put on top of the hard mattress and didn't sleep well for 4 nights. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and reception was closed until Monday. The room instructions stated that a $75 fee would be incurred if we had to call them out after hours so we had to make do. I think this is a bit unfair if there is an issue with a room making guests either wait up to 2 nights or pay an extra fee to have issues rectified. When I called on Monday the staff were helpful and said they hadn't had this apartment under their managemet for very long and offered to put a mattress topper on - which arrived Tuesday, So they tried.... Unfortunately the topper didn't make much difference at all. The mattress really needs to be replaced. Overall the room was nice, but there are a few maintenance items that need to be addressed to make it better.

Verified reviewThe resort is immaculate. The manager at the resort was very friendly and welcoming. The location is great - just a short walk to the esplanade. The pools were a huge hit despite being cold!
The apartment didn't quite hit the mark for our family of 5. I didn't like that there was nowhere to hang the washing except run the dryer flat out. I feel like for a long 2 week stay we should have been given a little more than 2 washing sachets. The dishwasher functions are all rubbed off so we didn't know how to work it until we received a response later in time. There is no storage or shelving for food items. The bath plug didn't seal properly, and the towel rack in the kids room was broken - not a big deal but still a nuisance. There's a DVD player but no movies. I think for families a few extra details could go a long way. The bed was ok but it was two mattresses pushed together which I dislike as it's uncomfortable if you're in the middle. The blankets were also not the freshest smelling, thankfully we didn't need them. The extra bed which is a sofa bed was awkwardly placed at the back doorway which was really drafty overnight for my little one as the leuvers don't totally shut. Probably also worth mentioning to other travelers that the bar rarely opens at the complex ( quite misleading when you look at the website).

Verified reviewLocation to start line of ironman & quiet for relaxing afterwards. Good choice of pools.
The bed was hard we woke up everyday hoping to lay in but instead couldn't wait to get out. I wasn't sure what I was sorer from the doing the ironman or the bed. The oven was dangerous to use the door kept opening a little & it appeared to only work on fan grill option, dials had been burnt icons worn-out. Dishwasher wasn't much better at working out what cycle was what. The dryer made a hell of a noise we used it briefly to dry a few items. To be honest all appliances are a bit tired. TV in bedroom couldn't use netflix as no wifi capability

The apartment that we stayed in was old and dated the cooker was poor knobs when were removed. Light fittings were damaged very few kitchen storage cupboards. The fridge wasn’t very cold. The shutters on the door didn’t lock very well and there were no fly screens but patio area is in complete shade One window has no blind or curtains in the hallway and you can see right through at night. Basically the apartment is not worth the amount we paid for the The stay
