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.).

IndiaThe plumbing in the bathrooms could do with some maintenance, water pressure in and out could be faster. Otherwise, everything is perfect!!
The location, the staff and the villa layout is very well planned with a sea view for all. The garden and pool is very nicely done and relaxing to just be around. Must stay here if you are in Amed. Plus, you can get out of the room and go right into the water to snorkel in the clear water .. Lots of good snorkeling points around and you can never get enough of Amed !

AustraliaMsg in the food but once we discovered that, they were happy to leave it out for our meals.
Absolutely loved every moment. Small, intimate, quiet, relaxed spot right on the water edge. Great staff, great snorkeling right of the beach, extremely cozy and comfortable beds, great indoor and outdoor bathroom. Cute little restaurant right by the water. Great meals just let them know if you don’t want them to add msg!

AustraliaWifi didn't work from our room, we had to go to the restaurant.
The staff met us at the car, welcomed us and took us straight to our room. The place was right on the beach. If you want a lovely place to stay, that's right on the beach, you can't ask for better. The prices at the restaurant were ok, but if you want to go for a walk there are other options as well.

United KingdomTaxis are expensive, we were charged 100,000rp per trip to get into Amed. The staff were friendly but all felt very young with only one speaking English. They tried to be attentive and the cleaning etc was excellent, but it would have been helpful to be able to discuss or get some advice on the area etc. The food was a bit mixed but some meals were delicious.
This is a beautiful setting right by the sea. The villas are clean and the beds comfy and the Aircon worked well. It is away from the main area of Amed but there are plenty of restaurants and shops and spas within walking distance. The staff were helpful. You can request laundry to be done and the breakfast was very tasty and ample. Pool was lovely! Hot water worked well. On the whole we really loved our stay and would come back. Very family friendly and felt very safe! No water machine but they did give us bottled water every day. The coffee shop attached to it is excellent.

LithuaniaWifi was not offered as paid, but it was really bad. Having 2 teens and bad wifi was a nightmare :))) Also the TV in the villa has not HDMI connection for your own devices.
Right on the beach where you can go and snorkel. We even saw turtles and one dolphin right in front of us. Great facilities that are well looked after. We stayed at the 3 bedroom villa and it was luxurious. The pool is really big and was great enjoyment. We happened to be the only guests there as low season considered to be mid January. If not for the wifi, it would be 10.

IndonesiaThe room where I stayed (at the back) has a very poor wifi connection. I managed to stay online by tethering from my own phone. Too many staff and they seem not so productive. Hang out alot like all day near the restaurant area. Breakfast quality varied a lot. Once my banana pancake was so thin and good, another time it's too thick and uncooked.
I like the location as it is right in front of the snorkeling spot and near shops and restos that I like.

AustraliaIt’s a bit of a hike to the ‘happening’ places so you need to rent a scooter or get a taxi. Be sure to barter on the taxi price or you’ll be overcharged.
This property is right on the beach, with excellent snorkelling straight out the front. Make sure you take water/reef shoes to walk over the volcanic rocks and into the water. The villa was huge and the beds are VERY comfortable. The staff are friendly and accommodating, keeping the grounds and our room clean. There are some warungs to the left of the property that are delicious and cheap local food. We would definitely stay here again.

AustraliaNever any ice, so no cold drinks except beer and cool drinks. Issues met with a lovely smile not a solution. Privacy ignored. Caught out naked in our rooms twice-very disconcerting for anyone let alone a 68year old! Just a query “hello “ and walk straight in, no waiting.
Captivating view. Fish chasing fish all day, fishing boats in and out all day, tourists navigating the rocky sure. Excellent restaurant 70m’s up the road, Galanga. Staff friendly.

AustraliaFor reference there are shacks on the beach at either end of the complex where locals arrange snorkeling, fishing and sunset tours. Boats leave from the beach and use motors to pull them back onto the beach, so there can be some noise. We travelled with friends and between us did four tours with them on the trimarans. Taxi prices are really high for local trips if you don't want to walk the 3km to Lipiah beach or the more lively part of Amed. Cons: hot water takes minutes to come through the shower (not that it's really necessary), and my bed sheet ripped.
I was in the private villa, which was lovely. The grounds are beautiful and right on Amed beach, which is a pebble beach and lined with fishing boats. The restaurant has nice food and staff are friendly and helpful. There is good snorkeling right off the beach. The complex's pool is nice and the villa's infinity pool is great and overlooks the beach.
