How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewI spent 20 days at this hotel. I really appreciated the respect, kindness, and helpfulness of the staff. I had three rooms and they were all very good, but ask for a room that is a little further from the main street. The reason is that the roosters crow at 4 a.m. and disrupt your sleep. I really appreciated the musical selection in the restaurant.
Pool can be more clean

Verified reviewGreat location. Friendly staff. Has a nice charm. Lots of potential.
The place has so much potential. But there are certain things that can’t be overlooked: When you shower - the entire bathroom gets wet. It’s just not a pleasant experience. The room is tiny, so there is no space for a suitcase. The pool needs a thorough clean. There’s an area in front of the deluxe suites which is just trees, grass, unkept and in need of severe tidying up. Noise. A few in our group were unable to sleep due to the noise of scooters.
thank you for you score

Verified reviewLocated in a quiet part of the island. Pool was clean. Room size was good and bedroom was clean. Breakfast was good but juice included was not fresh. Staff were exceptionally helpful in arranging trips and drivers.
First night no hot water. Bathroom was not properly cleaned. Water for showering was salty and could not lather up soap or shampoo. Fridge freezer was iced up so we had to remove ice to shut fridge door. Bed sheet was ripped.
thank you so much for you review

Verified reviewThe pool area is great, staff helped us loads and organised lots of trips and activities for us, the owner can’t do enough for you. Air con is powerfull. Bed was comfy, mozzi net was nice to have. Nice place to sit outside your room.
Shower was cold but this is pretty normal on an island. Location is pretty isolated if you don’t drive a scooter, the host did arrange taxis for us though. You can’t get a car over the yellow bridge so you need to get 2 taxis to Lembongan.
thank you so much for stay with us .

Verified reviewGood location, the restaurants around are great! Snorkelling trip was great and the guy who organised it was helpful! Some staff showed great interest in making our stay good!
Very basic stay. Breakfast is NOT included, no water is provided and limited help from some staff. Asked for a lift to Yellow Bridge (approx 5 min drive) and the accom tried to charge us 100k for it - we ended up walking the 30mins.
hello Libby hi you thank you for giving my business a score of 4, and why did you complain about breakfast and it is clear that the price of the room you chose is not included. If you really want breakfast, choose the price according to booking.com, it is very clear which is included and which is not. You choose a cheap price but want to include it, you better look for a hostel, not in my place. You are also waiting for my business because you made a review that is not in accordance with the facts. About water, what is the problem, there is no water? If it's about me, I apologize. And I can report you on booking.com because you made a review that is not real.

Verified reviewBeds were comfy and pool was nice we didn't spend much time as we were out exploring and catching up with friends
Cenigen has recently had alot of rain so mozziies were bad and the location of the villa we chose backed onto the road that was full of water so this would have nothelped. Would suggest getting a load of backfill.to fix the road so that it dosnt pool with water and would also be less noisy with the scooter riding as well

Verified reviewStaff was great, the pictures on the handle were quite real to the actual stay. Good vibe throughout the property.
Water bottles could have been provided in the rooms. The island only has salt water for daily human requirements.

Verified reviewThe staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were excellent, mainly cooked by Putu.
The front doors were difficult to close. The bathroom door became hard to open and close, but was quickly fixed by a staff member. Towards the end of our stay the bathroom door was again difficult to open.
