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.).

New ZealandNothing I didn't like but maybe some movies available to watch on a hard drive to watch on the TV or a DVD library would be great.
Loved the beautiful breakfast, the pool, Wi-Fi, big shower and separate kitchen, close to the beach, Rob & Anna organized a taxi from the airport for us & we were are able to use a cell phone to make local calls. Rob chatted to the guests to see if there was nothing we needed. There were kayaks & bikes available to use but we ran out of time to use those unfortunately.

New ZealandWas an awesome place, we were lucky enough to get the room with the outdoor shower too. That was amazingly done and nice and private . New bathrooms are awesome. We would’ve loved an aircon unit and that’s the only comment we can make that isn’t all positive but there is ceiling fans. Hospitality was great. Pool was lovely. Rooms were massive and spotlessly cleaned. A homemade bread and breakfast trifles in the fridge for us waiting. A little bummer the beach opposite is a rocky one but that’s out of anyone’s control and wasn’t far to a nice area so wasn’t a problem. The grounds were kept beautiful. We’ve raved about it to everyone since being home

New ZealandThis is only a minor issue. Carparking is tight for bigger vehicles and so be better to hire a smaller car or motorcycle.
There is a lot to like at the property. The hosts Anna/Rob are very welcoming and showed us to our unit and explained where everything is, from filling up your water bottle for drinking to the laundry room and designated areas for smokers as well to the recycling bins. BBQ and pizza area to use and relaxing is so spacious and good for families. Unit so spacious. Super king-size bed is so comfortable. Smart tv with my favorite tv apps was awesome. The bathroom is absolutely dreamy and spacious and clean. Breakfast provided by the host for the 1 day until you get your own supplies at wigmores as it is only 2 mins away on a car or motorcycle is great. The swimming pool 100% is what is required to cool off after a day out in the heat or whenever you like to swim. Beaches nearby, absolutely 💯. Luscious gardens are also so beautiful around the the units provides privacy, too.
