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.).

AustraliaWhen we left the accommodation the first time we closed the individual gate to the tiny home and then found it could not be opened from the outside. Had to crawl under the gate to gain access, luckily it hadn't rained or the washing machine would have been used again :). It was funny and we didn't do it again.
The accommodation was comfortable and clean. There was good breakfast provided with fresh raspberries, yum. The accommodation provided everything needed to cook and eat there if wanted and the washing machine worked beautifully.

AustraliaCould have a couple of minor improvements for safety and access - movement activated lights through the garage and beside the pool, refrigerator needs to be turned on before guests arrive, pool and jacuzzi needs a good clean, attention to detail (for example firelighters and tools for the fire), and the stove only has 3 burners working! a couple extra kitchen utensils for cooking and additional cutlery and crockery! The pigeon coup/ bird house next door is a bit smelly and can get noisy!
Super clean inside and comfy little abode, great location, private yard, acess to a pool and communication with owner/manager was great! Loved the central location, and the private yard and facilities! Thank you!

AustraliaUnfortunately the hot water wasn’t working in the tiny home however the host was very prompt in coming to assist and offering to use the shower in the main home. The walkway to get to the tiny home was very muddy.
Very friendly and accomodating host. Lovely, clean and private space. Comfy bed and pillows.

AustraliaThere were no keys to unlock the window locks, the sun shines straight in from early morning and heats up very quickly. I'm sure that's helps if you're staying in winter. When we arrived in the afternoon it was hotter inside than it was outside. Usually prefer to open the windows than using the a/c
It met our needs and at a price that was good for us.

AustraliaFor honesty purposes, and it does not detract from my stay, the outdoor setting likely needs to be replaced. It is uncomfortable, and you're left with white marks from the chair. However, this is one minor dislike, so don't let it deter you. Just note that if you're wearing nice clothes and the chair is white wood, don't sit unless you put a towel down.
It is a cute little home with everything you need to be able to be fully self-sufficient. It is private, comfory bed, easy to.locate, close to shops. The home was clean, everything you require, soap, shamp/cond hair dryer, straightener, all eating/cooling/serving utensils, and a great little BBQ. We used a cover to cook on. The host sent clear information and was easy to deal with.

AustraliaThere was nowhere to put our bag or cushions from the bed. The side of the bed, near the wall, was very dusty and dirty.
The property had everything we needed for the night and was in a very good location.

AustraliaThe only thing I was disappointed about is it said it was 2 minutes to the beach. It didn’t say drive & it would of been 5 minutes - I’d say. Unfortunately if you are on foot like myself & as many tourists may be - it was about 45? minutes to the closest beach.
It was cosy, clean home away from home. That provided all the necessities you could imagine with nurturing personal touches. It was obvious a lot of thought & love had gone into designing it. It included your own relaxing outdoor area. It was very affordable for what you receive compared to other accommodation.

AustraliaNot the cleanest - some detailing needed there. An additional unit has now been added, which did impact privacy as well as being a variation on what's advertised.
Quiet location, walkable to beach and local amenities. Thoughtfully equipped little unit, very comfortable. Pool access is certainly appreciated.

AustraliaSheer privacy curtains would be great in combination with the block out blinds. Due to the closeness of neighbours, we felt the need to keep the blinds closed in the day as well as at night to lessen the "fish bowl" effect.
Great communication with the wonderful host. There are lots of thoughtful inclusions within the accommodation.
