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.).

South AfricaAbsolutely nothing to comment
Gawie is the true reflection of what hospitality should be. From the time we made the reservation, he assisted us with such an amazing hippo and croc safari from ShakaBarker (which in my opinion was one of the best you can go on, I’ve been on a few and Kian was by far the best guide to have - he was so knowledgeable about everything), as we arrived we encountered some car troubles but left the property immediately to go on the boat cruise and Gawie had organized to have it seen to, then he had made reservations at Reef and Dune on our behalf and especially organized for us to have a table facing the road (for hippo sightings of course). Overall, we had a fantastic time. The views from the terrace are so beautiful and our room was lovely and so comfortable. Thank you for an incredibly memorable stay, we will be back most definitely!

Very welcoming hosts and we were shown around the pool, viewing deck and to our cabana. The cabana has a well equipped kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom with sink, toilet and shower and a lounge. There is great private patio and bbq area - well lit, with table and four chairs, The property is about 3/4 minutes from the restaurants and shops in St Lucia. Unfortunately it rained heavily for most of our stay so we didn’t go for breakfast up at the main lodge.

The stunning views and great location of this lodge. Friendly and hospitable staff especially Gawie the manager. Very generous hosting with biscuits, rusks and chocolates on pillows in the rooms. Stunning artwork everywhere. Breakfast was outstanding. We found our "go to " place in St Lucia. Special thanks for the birthday treats for my daughter.

South AfricaIt was not clear from the posting whether we had a view - so this did not match expectations. Our bed needed replacing, noisy and damaged. The cabana could have more atmosphere with art that reflects the area and was warmer in mood, a bit clinical. Advice from the manager did not match expectations- advised us to pursue the walk to Estuary beach which was littered thickly with sugar cane from a flood and totally unwalkable - after a long walk to get there. Note to be home and finished walking by dark as hippos walk at night and could attack outside the water.
The view from the communal balcony, tea and coffee service all done with love. The cleanliness of out unit was 150%, perfect! We had all we needed in the unit, and our four year old loved the tv , the single bed in her room was comfortable and she slept well. Our car was parked right outside the cabana so felt safe. The garden and cleaning staff were friendly and did their jobs excellently. Hot water and very fluffy new towels - thank you! Excellent advice from the manager to go to Cape Vidal for the day what a wonderful combination of excellent game viewing on the way and a beautiful beach (albeit with basic toilets and no access to food/restaurant at all, prep your own food, sandwiches). Our boat ride with Fannas was excellent but we booked this ourselves as the Ndiza offering was more expensive.
