Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

IrelandThere was a low pressure of water in the bathroom so we needed some time to take a shower. It can be easily fixed so this doesn't affect my overall experience.
The place is so quiet and beautiful. The Pod is cozy and well equiped. Heating is very good on cold and windy nights. There is a great view to watch sun go down and you can take a short walk around camp. There is a small beach next to pods and it is very nice and calming to listen sound of waves in the evening.

IrelandI wish the way to the beach had a staircase to go down. Other then that everything was perfect.
I loved that we were able to bring the dog. Really enjoyed the view. Really appreciated the early check in and late check out. The bathroom and showers were lovely and it was very warm in there. Easy check in and only a few km a away from the shops.

Mr
United KingdomThe bed was a bit comfortable enough however as it was a pod and had a double bed, the side near the wall made you feel a little clostrpohobic if like me you have to sleep on your left side. The sofa bed was far too low to truly sit on comfortabley and had a bow in the middle. As the weather was unseaaobly warm, the pod was extremely warm and stuffy as there is no real air conditioning.
The location is stunning, the staff were friendly, the food from the restraunt was gorgeous, the shower was great the views from the front door were spectacular, the pod was very clean and had everything you would need for a break away., including plates, glasses for drinks and a kettle and even a microwave. . It also had instant hot water which we loved. We actually loved our stay our dog Jack loved the water just outside our pod and enjoyed sitting by the door when we were relaxing in the evening.

IrelandThe fact that we only found out two days before we arrived that the restaurant was only open from Friday to Sunday. And we were staying Monday to Friday. We were very disappointed about that, as we had booked with the understanding the restaurant would be opened and it was dog friendly, So we had to try and find restaurants nearby during the day that were dog friendly. That was a challenge.
Excellent location, peace, and quiet , spotless clean, pods were very comfortable, staff very friendly and helpful.

IrelandI am disabled and found getting around the site on the gravel areas difficult in a wheelchair.
Love the pod - very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Also the onsite restaurant was very good. Our dog was very happy and loved being able to go in and out as she wished when we were sitting outside in the sun (we were lucky with the weather). Fabulous view and and so quiet and still.
