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 reviewWarm and welcoming. Was a fantastic experience. Thank big thank to Hendra and his team who are all warm, kind and attentive. The hotel itself is athletically beautiful. I ate every meal at the hotel during my stay. Lastly, the food is really of a very high standard, and felt no need to explore any other restaurants whilst in Bingin/Uluwatu area. I highly recommend.

Verified reviewThe Elementum is a small boutique hotel where the staff really work hard to look after you, from wonderful arrival drinks to their excellent wide ranging choice of breakfast. It’s location is amazing in that it is perched on the edge of a ridge above the sea and is positioned so that the pool and the end two (deluxe) rooms have a wonderful view of the coastline and sea. The other (maybe 8:10) rooms, all face the pool and are separated by a small hedge. (There are also sheer drapes and curtains to prevent people looking in.) To get to the beach it’s a short grab ride. Grabs are everywhere, so this is easy. The decor throughout is wonderful and very modern and the rooms are very relaxing. The bathrooms at the back of the bedrooms are open to the air, which we didn’t mind. Overall, we had an excellent stay, would definitely go back and would without hesitation recommend this lovely unique hotel.
Our only very tiny niggle was that the beds here were quite hard, but that’s just a matter of person taste.
Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. It’s wonderful to know that our team made you feel well looked after and that you found the hotel relaxing and unique. It means a lot that you would recommend us and plan to return. We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable stay!

Verified reviewCan’t fault this place and will definitely stay again when we return to Bali next year. The staff are incredible and so friendly. The facilities are great, clean, and comfortable. It’s quiet and the pool is very well looked after. We arrived late from the airport on our first night and the staff had put out some sandwiches for us in case we were hungry! Always felt like they were going out of there way to make our Stay enjoyable and having a friendly chat.
Nothing!

Verified reviewgreat location quiet peaceful and only a 5 min scooter ride to main stripe of uluwatu town. Service is amazing all the employees are extremely helpful, nice while still giving you space, and accommodating to any needs like we rented a scooter. breakfast and restaurant has very clean tasty food and a lot of options along with some good beverages all around alcohol or not/smoothies/coffee drinks. got a nice massage right at their spa room. anything you need just ask they probably can help... they'll give you clean towels whenever(wasn't the case at every other place we stayed in bali usually only get one set)! they have designated bathroom, pool, and beach towels. rooms are very nice. we ended up loving this place so much we actually came back to stay for additional 3 days to end of our bali trip. also used their laundry service which was a bonus to have the option to clean some clothes only took a day.
hard to say anything bad about it... the beds are a little stiff if I had to be a snob and say something but that seemed to be the case at almost every place we stayed.

Verified reviewThe small volume of rooms means that you are prioritised by the staff and they ensure that your stay is as good as it can be. The location is angelic and the view from the pool is spectacular. The bar is amazing for cocktails and they have a plethora to choose from. It is close to everywhere you would want to go in Uluwatu.
The restaurant left quite a bit to be desired. It was okay but every meal we had was that; just okay.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the intimate atmosphere of The Elementum and that our team made you feel well looked after. We’re sorry, however, that the restaurant didn’t fully meet your expectations. Your comments are very valuable, and we’ll be reviewing them carefully with our culinary team to continue improving. We truly appreciate your balanced feedback and hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back for an even better experience next time.

Verified reviewI rate my stay at The Elementum very highly. We stayed in Bungalow No. 2, which had a beautiful view of the ocean. The room and bathroom were exceptionally clean. Even though the bathroom had a partially open ceiling, there were no insects or bugs at all. What impressed us the most during our stay was the restaurant overlooking the pool and ocean. The food served both at breakfast and from the à la carte dinner menu (standard menu) was outstanding. Despite having stayed in several 5-star hotels in Bali before, The Elementum turned out to be by far the best in terms of food quality and overall value for money.
Nothing to complain about, the entire stay was excellent.
Thank you so much for your glowing review and for sharing your experience at The Elementum. It’s wonderful to know the partially open bathroom design worked well for you and still felt spotless and comfortable. We’re especially thrilled by your kind words about our restaurant. To hear that both breakfast and dinner stood out to you, even compared to 5-star hotels, means so much to our team. Providing excellent food and great value is something we take pride in, and your feedback is incredibly rewarding. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would be honored to welcome you back for another memorable stay!

Verified reviewA must-stay hotel in Uluwatu. It is a beautiful property and the staff are very friendly. The food, service and location are great. I especially loved that even though I checked out, I was able to keep using the pool and one of the staff even booked the spa room for me so I could shower before leaving.

Verified reviewGreat Balinese massage within your property. The staff helped us get around arranging cabs. Although not the best communicators in terms of rates quoted and what we actually had to pay.
It’s a little inside, slightly away from the market y area and yet not that close to the beach.

Verified reviewMy fiance and I absolutely loved our stay here. The rooms were immaculate and beautifully designed. Bed was very comfy. The pool was lovely and looks over such a beautiful view too. The staff are incredible and make you feel extremely welcome. I got sick whilst I was there and they went above and beyond to make sure I was looked after sufficiently. The restaurant boasts a stunning menu with some great chefs on board. The location puts you in a quiet spot but close enough to the best beaches and bars in town. Recommend Dreamland beach at sundown and Cashew Tree for lunch/dinner. Breakfast included at Elementum is fully recommended.

Verified reviewBreakfast was very tasty. They give the flexibility of having breakfast all day long (once a day).
The rooms have one big windows with a view over the swimming pool from the bed: it means that if people are in the swimming pool, they can look at you on the bed, since there are no bush or trees for privacy.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed our all-day breakfast option and found it tasty. We appreciate your comments regarding the room layout and poolside privacy. While the design aims to create a bright and open atmosphere with pool views, we understand that this may feel less private for some guests. Your suggestion is very valuable, and we’ll look into ways to improve privacy without losing the openness of the rooms. We truly appreciate your input and hope to have the chance to welcome you back for an even more comfortable stay.
