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...).

AustraliaWe liked everything!
As soon as we came in, we instantly fell in love. Beryl is so cute! We came inside to a jar full of minties and sachets of cereal! Instantly took me back to when I went on holiday as a kid and stayed at hotels. The next night we had a fire and it was so relaxing just looking up at the stars. No sound except for the possum in the tree. The whole experience was simply cozy. I'll definitely choose this spot again if I come back to Melbourne/Mornington Peninsula

AustraliaSince it is supposed to be a B&B I was disappointed that only tea and coffee and a few lollies were provided.
I liked the novelty of staying in a 1990's caravan. The setting was lovely with all the solar lights, surf boards, etc. The owners have a quirky sense of humour. A quiet and peaceful location but not far from Sorrento and Point Nepean.

AustraliaWould’ve preferred the toilet to be closer to the caravan, bed is a bit short in length but understandable given it’s a caravan. Wouldn’t recommend if you are very tall.
Safe and secluded location, toilet amenities was in very good condition. Owners were very communicative about the property and directions. Caravan has Netflix and streaming services. Shower has hot water. Loved the Australian references and wellness inside the caravan.

AustraliaBed was smaller than we're used to, but just meant we had to get closer ;) Did not change our experience and we would book again.
Lovely and secluded, perfect getaway. Nice outdoor area with fairy lights dotted about to sit around and star gaze. Close to hot springs and brewery. Separate toilet (portaloo) to accommodation, shower inside caravan (although we didn't use on this trip).

AustraliaWe loved everything. The bed is a little bit shorter than average and my partner is a bit taller than average so he couldn’t stretch right out but for me this wasn’t an issue at all, worth bearing in mind if you are on the taller side.
We absolutely loved our stay at Back Beach Beryl. The setup offers lots of privacy and there is an awesome fire pit we didn’t get a chance to use. Compact and Cosy, there is everything you might need for a short stay.

United KingdomNothing! Everything was great and we would have loved to stay longer!
This camper has everything you could ask for ,for a cheeky get away in nature. We loved the retro Australia camping vibe. Board games, Netflix, bbq, heater everything! It’s close to the beach and peninsular hot springs. The fire pit was a great addition and we enjoyed sitting around it and roasting marshmallows in the night.

AustraliaI just needed a bed for the night after attending a wedding nearby so the location was perfect. I’m used to camping so the outdoor toilet wasn’t a big issue and it was very clean. The bed was very comfortable, only a double but fine for me on my own. My biggest issue was the possums that kept running across the roof of the van throughout the night. I really just needed a bed for the night so didn’t get to experience the surrounds at all. Overall, it was a good experience, albeit still a little pricey for what you get, but the alternative was double the price so I’m not complaining.
