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...).

PolandIf you want to book this room you need to be aware that the lizards, spiders, flyes and mosquitoes can and will come to the room. Of course there is mosquito net covering bed, but if you are sensitive to that stuff you might consider this stay.
The stuff was so amazing, the included breakfasts was delicious with wide menu and beautiful view from balcony. It was very convenient that there was also warung with good meals. When we needed to rent a scooter they helped us organise it with no problem. There is also a possibility to book massage in the middle of rice fields - amazing experience. Overall we loved this stay, and we are thankful for everything.

FranceSidemen is incredible and Embang Homestay was a perfect choice to discover the area. The location is great, the view from the room is amazing and it's very good value for the money. The best thing about Embang is the team there, they are welcoming and kind, it felt like home :) and their Warung is delicious 😍 The bedroom was comfortable and spacious, though semi-open (therefore a little humid). Thank you Ayu, Jero and the team!

FranceEmbang is a real gem of a place! Ayu is a great host, as are her family and it really does have a family feel, in all the right ways. The room is spacious, the view is spectacular, the bed is large and comfy and there’s a double veranda as well. The bathroom is very cute and semi open. There’s a huge bottle of water for guests to help themselves. The breakfast is a perfect way to start your day and there’s a great warung on site for lunch/dinner. The cherry on the cake for us was the massages that Ayu arranges for you. There is a little hut nestled in the fields, just a short stroll from your room, which is the perfect spot for relaxing. All good and value for money doesn’t even cover it. Embang was recommended to us and I’m so glad that it was!

AustraliaHonestly, for the price, there is nothing better in sidemen. The view was incredible. The staff were really friendly. The breakfast was amazing and included. Not much to complain about, the bungalow had an open part but there was a fan and it was cool enough that it was great.

United KingdomWe had the most amazing time! Everything was incredible, the staff, the location and the rooms with the most beautiful view of Sideman and the surround members. Every staff member was helpful and welcoming and Ayu really went the extra mile making us breakfast for the road when we had to check out early in the morning to make our ferry. It would be a pleasure to stay here again and we recommend to everyone!

AustraliaOur room smelt a little musty and there is no air conditioning, only a fan which was very loud during the night. We also arranged a taxi through the property to our next stop but unfortunately on walking through the town found that we could have booked it cheaper ourselves, which was disappointing as they made a point of saying they ensure you get a good price.
We had a nice stay at Embang Homestay. The views from the property are incredible, looking out over the rice fields. The homestay also offers massages on-site in a little hut down at the bottom of the garden, which was very relaxing. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

AustraliaIt is important to know that there is no air con in the room (standard room) and the shower is lukewarm warm/cold. If you have a heavy monsoon shower the bathroom (plein-air) gets wet! And the roof leaks at some places. Yet as it’s warm all year round it’s no problem!
This accomodation is a real hidden gem, with beautiful seperate freestanding huts/rooms in authentic Balinese style. You gave your own large room with shower. The owners are so warm and welcoming and helpful with any question or request. The massage and dinners are fantastic! We’ll recommended!

Beautiful property with an amazing view over the rice terraces. When we arrive, we were provided a welcome meal of sugarcane filled pancakes and fruit,. It’s a family run business with the kindest staff.
