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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

South AfricaThe equipment for watersport was in a very bad state of repair. SUP boards had no fins underneath, wake board boot was broken. Equipment needs to be better maintained. I was woken up every morning at around 3am with a running tap sound. It was very loud and went on and on. Not sure if it was my neighbour or what but it woke me up both mornings and annoyed me. Sounded like someone was running a loud tap in my room
The big offering of equipment and things to do, close to lake, friendly staff

South AfricaAs we are pensioners and booked a month in advance the day before leaving you advertising 10% discount. You should think of offering discount for Senior Citizen.
We loved the pedal boats as it was free. Also all other activities that was free. Good sales pitch when advertising Pinelake.

South AfricaOnly downside during this visit was the restaurant at the Piazza. We always had to look for staff to either have menus brought to us, or to take our order, or to get a bill. Staff also did not put through all orders and brought food short only for us to ask where the rest of the food was and be told that they had forgotten to put it through. Restaurant staff seemed very unenthusiastic to be there and no sense of customer service.
Always a pleasant stay at Pine Lake Marina. The convenience of having activities onsite makes it great value for money. Onsite parking is also convenient.

South AfricaThe TV reception wasn’t good. The place needs more maintenance, our shower was dripping to the ground floor, taps were loose when turning to open in the upstairs bathroom, Chalet A02. It was said that cleaning would take place every 4 days, but it didn’t happen during the course of our stay.
