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 review5-star hospitality. My family and I spent only two nights at the villa but in such a short time we felt so much loved by Nyoman and Made. The wonderful couple who took care of the villa and any sort of needs we could have had. The villa is stunning large bedroom, swimming pool facing the jungle. We would love to extend the stay but it could not be possible

Verified reviewUmu Mupu is a lovely place in a still authentic part of Bali. Nyoman and Made are dedicated hosts, always trying to help, preparing nice meals and easy to communicate with. The two rooms are very spacious and modern, the pool has a nice view. We could easily rent a big scooter to explore the area and have a look in the nearby village, where people and kids greeted us kindly. Also Nyoman invited us in his house, which was really kind. He also drove us to our next destination. If you look for serenity and peace, this is the place.

Verified reviewSecluded and serene, this villa is a hidden gem. You have the whole place to yourself, including two standalone houses with open-concept bathrooms. The kitchen and dining area faces the small, neighbouring rice fields. Evenings are cool and surprisingly hardly any mosquitos. The breakfast meals were amazing.
Some kitchen ware could use with replacements.

Verified reviewUma Mupu Retreat felt like home from the very first moment. Nyoman, the host, kindly arranged my transfer from the previous accommodation and even took me to my next one — all at a very reasonable price. He and his wife, Made, are a wonderful couple: warm, discreet, and always present in a way that makes your stay as comfortable and pampering as you wish. This place is a true gem, perfect for anyone who loves being immersed in nature. The villa is nestled between a small jungle and rice fields, creating a serene and vibrant atmosphere. Waking up to the songs of tropical birds and seeing the full moon reflected in the pool were just some of the magical moments I experienced. You also have the option to enjoy Made’s delicious home-cooked meals — and with that, the word "retreat" truly lives up to its name. Nyoman is happy to accompany you to nearby (and even slightly farther) places. I could speak more about the place and my kind hosts, but I let you discover and experience it on your own.
Leaving the place. I loved both the place and my wonderful hosts. The only thing I would do differently next time? I’d stay longer :) and in that case, rent a scooter to further explore the beautiful surroundings also on my own.

Verified reviewEverything during our stay was amazing! It started with a great welcome from Nyoman and Madee, a very nice couple who were really accommodating. The villa is very well designed and clean, right in the middle of the rice fields and integrated in its environment. We felt very connected with nature there, it was great to hear the sound of the animals during the night, enjoy the fireflies.. Madee cooked for us amazing breakfasts and diners, we highly recommend it! We also had a great tour with Nyoman around the region and discovered many things about the Balinese culture. We wish we could have stayed longer and can only recommend this place! We hope that we can meet again with Nyoman and Madee!

Verified reviewWe spent 3 nights of our Honeymoon in Ubud. The place is super comfy ! Its managed by a very gentle man called "Nyoman" this dude was the best among all we've met in our trip to Bali! He was super friendly, helpful, & professional. Even his wife Madé was super nice and she prepared some awesome food -live in the kitchen- for me and my wife. The place is in the middle of nature nothing much around to disturb your stay. Its not in the middle of ubud by any means yet if u have a car or a bike its a matter of a mid drive to the heart of the city. Nyoman ! U made our stay perfect thanks a lot brother.
Some minor comments .. the light sources in the outdoor need to increase since at night its considered the only source of light around due to the fact ure in the middle of nature all around ... The 2nd thing is not a big issue but you need to know and understand you will hear so many sounds at night of birds, frogs .. etc so you need to be ok with that [keeping in mind the place is super safe] so u don't have to worry about it
Dear Michael that was very happy to heard that you were have great time during stay with us and Looking forward to welcoming you back kind Regard Nyoman

Verified reviewThe property in reallity looks even better than the pictures. The location is the best possible one, if you plan to explore the island. The hosts are incredible - they met us at the airport, drove us to the villa, arranged the breakfasts&dinners in the villa, based on our meal preferences and the food was amazing!!! They can arrange a scooter for you, if you want to explore the counrtryside by yourself, or can drive you across the island with an airconditioned car and provide you with full guidance. You don't need to worry about anything and just relax and enjoy! Whatever you may need during your stay, the owner is just a WhatsApp message away and will be happy to assist. I requested a Balineese massage and the terapist just came to the villa :) The view from the villa is one in a kind! The water in the pool is clean and warm and you can enjoy the sounds of the nature, while relaxing in the yard. We have been in Bali many times, but this accomodation beats all of the rest with its unique location, hospitality, cleanliness and atmosphere!!! And all this provided at a very reasonable prices. Thank you, Nyoman, Made and the girls for your great hospitality!
Everything in this place were much better than my expectations.

Verified reviewThe location is breathtaking, the villa staff is very friendly! Had the best advice on places to visit and the cooking of the private chef (available at a very reasonable surcharge) was just perfect. Rooms are modern and very clean. We loved every minute of it, already mis the place! Can't recommend this villa enough, you need to visit this place!
Nothing, the place is an active rice field, meaning you need to be in luck for the rice to look pretty. In our case it was just harvested.

Verified reviewThis is a wonderful private villa in a remote and tranquil area operated by a lovely and kind balinese couple. Nyoman and Made made sure that our stay was one of the most memorable along our trip. Made’s cooking skills might be some of the best you can find on the island. Also make sure to ask Nyoman for a tour of the Ubud countryside. He was born and raised in the village and knows everything from nice coffee plantations to the best temples to visit. I recommend renting a scooter to get around as the distances in Bali countryside can be very long. Our daughter enjoyed the playing in the pool and I was able to use the second room as office. The entire place is exceptionally clean and looked after very well by Nyoman. We will definitely come back because they made us feel so welcomed that we felt as if we would have a second home in Bali. Thanks for everything!
