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.).

AustraliaDriveway is steep and quite narrow. Bathroom downstairs didn't have shower gel, though just a small oversight.
Lots of space for a family of 5. There are 2 bathrooms, washing machine is available and would be handy for longer stays. Linen and towels are included with the price paid. There are 2 rooms downstairs, great for kids as they have their space with a large tv and comfy lounge area.

AustraliaThe entrance to the driveway is steep and can easily be missed. A bit more amenities would be helpful e.g hand towel in each bathroom, kitchen paper towel but it is just a suggestion for improvement.
The house is close to everything and we had a wonderful time staying here. The host is very accomodating and responsive. It has everything you need for family with small children e.g high chair, board games, kids cutlery & plates.

AustraliaThere was nothing we didn't like. The only thing we noticed was not dishwashing liquid. So we just used the dishwasher. Very easy
I spent the weekend with 2 girl friends to relax for the weekend. I would thoroughly recommend this house. It met all our expectations and we were very relaxed. Close to shops for a pleasant walk. Unfortunately we could not get the wi-fi to work for us, but we were not too concerned. We even got to experience beautiful birds come into the yard

AustraliaNot being able to open windows in upstairs bedroom, though has aircon and fan. As mentioned by others the driveway is steep and a bit tricky if neighbours home to turn around, once parked easy access and enough room for ute and van.
Good location very close to Dutchies, town and great foreshore walks. Communication with Michael was excellent, he was super accommodating and flexible. Very comfy house, kitchen well appointed, coffee pods and a few pantry staples. Nice showers. Heaps of space including two spacious outdoor decks to chill out.

AustraliaMaster bedroom doesn't have blockout blinds so we woke up at 6am ish every day being daylight savings time. Pillows were not comfortable. Down stairs had no aircon and just fans it was VERY HOT! 3rd bedroom had sheer curtains and didn't block any light out. As previously mentioned by others the driveway is tricky to nagivate. I would recommend going very slowly as its very steep.
Location was super! Communication with Michael & Sarah was fantastic, great recommendation and response time was really quick. House had a beachie feel about it and was presented beautifully. Upstairs aircons were great and very much appreciated being early Dec and getting hot. Kitchen was well appointed. Showers very good! Great house if you are travelling with teenagers as they can be down stairs and adults upstairs. Teenagers were very excitied to see a HUGE TV and appreciated the PS3. Teenagers took their Switch and were able to connect to the TV in our down time.

Australiaconstructive feedback I would give is to invest in a softer mattress next time and the beds do squeak. A tip for guests is to locate the aircon particularly for the main bedroom upstairs before going to sleep because it can get a bit hot without - once I realised there was an air con it was a lot better though :) the squeak and the firmness of the mattress may not have been as noticeable if it wasn’t the night before my wedding and I was struggling to sleep anyway! Mattress wasn’t hard but still a little firm for me. Also some better pillows and cooler/breathable bedding would be great.
The customer service and communication has been the best I have ever experienced when booking and organizing accommodation. We booked this stay for hair and make up the next day and the space was perfect for this! It was a relaxing well located girls night and we felt at home as soon as we arrived. Sadly we didn’t have time to use all the rooms but had plenty of space and Wouk shave loved to use the lounge room downstairs should we have had the time. Michael was a breathe of fresh air, super attentive and flexible, we need more people in the world like him. All the guests enjoyed.
