Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Grounds still a bit messy from cyclone damage. Not set up for self catering other than cereal and sandwiches so come prepared or eat out. The Eclectus parrot needs a friend to talk to.
Beautiful setting in the rainforest with walks available and in a good location central to most places in the Daintree. Had dinner at the restaurant one night and the food was good and the drinks reasonably priced. No wifi but Optus had signal. Comfortable beds and good bathroom. Overall a good place.

Food could be better and a bit more generous.
Cabin was fine, the owners are nice and helpful (they booked a boat tour for us at no cost). The walks around the premises are really nice, I liked it more than the official walks of the Natural Park.

Lync Haven is in the middle of Daintree rainforest. From here you can move easily to all important places. They also serve great food at reasonable prices. It has own walking pathes through the rainforest right away from the location. The staff is really very friendly and helpful and gives good recommendations on what to visit or options for tours. Thanks a lot Tamara !

Only criticism would be that there was no wardrobe or anywhere to put unpacked clothes other than on the spare bed.
Very good location, staff were friendly and efficient. We had an excellent evening meal in the restaurant each night. Cabin was comfortable. There are interesting short rainforest walks within the property.

Leoni put a positive spin on it but the concrete pool was very uninviting and the property looks like a dump from the front. Off season and owners were away but the grounds were in very poor condition and the cabin although being comfortable was infested with cockroaches and biting inspects - I am still scratching. No microwave in the cabins or camp kitchen despite the restaurant being closed.
