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.).

United KingdomLoads of boats arrive in the bay to spot the turtles and the underwater statues, but only because it spoils the tranquility of the place.
What a fabulous place which we booked by mistake 😀 as it is on Gili Meno not Gili T that we intended. But an extremely short boat trip and we arrived at an oasis of calmness and wonderful staff. We stayed in a bungalow, rustic and charming. The breakfast is excellent and we also had a fabulous BBQ meal. They also have a great happy hour cocktail menu. We’d highly recommend.

TaiwanThe place and room are just like poctures, very nice location, although it's far from the port, but it has its own beach and can hear some party sounds from Gili T at night which is quite interesting. Their staff are very friendly and helpful and can speak English well. A quiet and relaxing place where I will surely recommand to my friends.

United KingdomThe restaurant food is amazing, as are the staff - so friendly, chatty, etc! I recommend everyone tries the Steak Sandwich, and the Welcome Drink is 10/10! The rooms are great for Couples who just want a basic getaway without blowing the bank! If you walk about 10meters out into the sea it's almost guaranteed you'll see a Turtle (or 10+).

PortugalThe corals are mostly dead, which is a shame, but obviously not the hotel fault.
The STAFF, even by Indonesian standards, is unbelievably friendly and helpful. People like Supri and his colleagues are hard to find. The location is also fantastic for Gili Meno. Turtles come to graze in front of the hotel at 20m from the shore. Not to be missed!

SpainIt would be great if the property offered snorkeling masks, bicycles, or horse cart transfers for rent, or even had a few more activities available on-site—it would make things more convenient and enhance the overall experience.
I really enjoyed the property—we had a lovely villa, the breakfast was great, and the area was peaceful with some great restaurants nearby. I personally came to Gili to see turtles, and there’s a great spot just by the hotel, so I got exactly what I was hoping for. The room was cleaned daily, and the entire staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. A special thank you to Yuni—she truly made our stay even better!

GermanyWhat a wundervoll and peacefull place this is! We loved every day we stayed in Bungalow Cafe Meno. The relaxing atmosphere will calm you down every day. Everything was super clean (Tippi toppi as we say in Germany), really all of the employers was more than friendly. Adid and Supry hosted us every day nicley. We were able to snorkeling directly in front of the hotel, without taking a boat. We saw lots of turtles and thousends of fishes If I would have a chance to visit Gili Meno again I would book this wonderful place again.

RomaniaThere is no fresh water, but we understand from the locals that this is a general problem on the island, the government stopped their water treating plant. The staff was nice to provide us with a huge bucket of fresh water, but still it is a bit uncomfortable to shower with salty water and then rinse with fresh water from a bucket. The room needed a bit of fresh paint and a bit of maintenance here and there, especially regarding the sealing of the walls in the bathroom, there are still small holes where insects can crawl in, and the door cannot be fully closed from the bedroom. But they do provide mosquito repellent coils.
We stayed 3 nights in one of the bungalows. We were greeted with a welcome drink on arrival. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The location is nice and quiet. The bed was comfortable, and it included a mosquito net. Breakfast is a la carte, and it includes a coffee/tea and fresh juice. The view from the cafe area is really beautiful, you can see the ocean in its beautiful turquoise color and enjoy the sunset. We even saw a turtle near the shore a few meters from there.

United KingdomNothing! Perfect just as it is.
Such good value. Cute little bungalows. We liked the fact that this was a smaller type of accommodation with just a few bungalows. Staff were amazing and you really feel you get a personal service. Well located right on the beach. If you are coming from the mainland by speedboat ask the hotel to arrange rather than use the commercial boats. The hotel can arrange a small personal boat which will bring you right up to the front of the hotel rather than the commercial boats which go to the harbour on the other side golf the island - save you having to get a horse and cart from the harbour.

LithuaniaLittle bit higher prices in the Café-bar compared to other places nearby. But the property for stay is perfect!
I am so happy we stayed in this place in Gili Meno, here you can find everything you need. It is perfect location - on the beach, where right near Beach Front Café you can snorkeling and see many turtles. Or can just relax on the sunbed in shadow and enjoy views and cold drinks from café. In the evenings also it is perfect place for sunset watching. We liked the room, with big comfortable bed with mosquitos net and pretty bathroom. It was nice to have terrace near every bungalow where you can sit and enjoy evening before the sleep. Small details - like mosquito incense in the bathroom, refillable drinking water or beach towels - all this makes the stay here comfortable and it shows that they really care about the guests here. Especially thanks to the staff who take into account my complaints and fulfill my wishes. The biggest thanks for making our stay at your property amazing.

GermanyNothing in particular, but one should mention that the location of the place is not at a beach where you can walk into and have a sandy beach in particular. We took the bikes and drove 7-10 min. to a much nicer beach at Gilli Menno.
We stayed for a couple of nights in two bungalows. We arrived by a private boat the team was kindly organizing for us. The place is great and a little fancy (we liked the bohemian style a lot). The food was constantly very nice. The location is super close to the beach where you can walk into and already see turtles.
