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.).

Our stay at Villa Wastra was truly wonderful. The place is very quiet, which was perfect for us since we work night shifts and need to rest during the day. Maria and all the staff are so kind and welcoming, and the breakfast was always delicious. One small suggestion about breakfast — it might be nice if it were set up more like a buffet, so guests could easily help themselves and choose their table, instead of feeling a little awkward reaching for food while others are seated. But honestly, this was not a big issue at all. What we really loved was the extra touch of hospitality: every afternoon, the staff brought us tea with local snacks, which made us feel like royalty. Those little details made our stay extra special. When we come back to Bali, Villa Wastra will always be on our list — it truly feels like home. 💛

Villa Wastra is a very special place. A visit to Villa Wastra enables you to imagine Bali before the arrival of global tourism. Surrounded by nature, it's situation and views are spectacular. The amenities are excellent and spotlessly clean. Not least are the friendly staff and Ibu Mariah who takes care of every detail.

South KoreaStaying at Villa Wastra!!! it spoiled the rest of our trip! After leaving for another part of Bali, all we could think about was canceling the rest of our plans and going back to Maria’s place. Suggest you stay there at the last before you leave ;) If you want to geth around here you have to have a care or should use taxi as it is in countryside. We had our own car so it was perfect.
Our stay here was truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, Maria and her staff made us feel incredibly welcome. Maria is such a warm and friendly host, always taking the time to chat with guests and make them feel at home. We also requested a dinner during our stay, and it turned out to be one of the best meals of our entire trip—an absolute highlight that made our experience even more special. The accommodation itself felt like a big palace, with breathtaking views that made us wish we could stay forever. Every moment here was magical, and we can't wait to return! Believe me, we've traveled the world and experienced our fair share of luxury hotels. What was different, Maria place feels like a homestay while you have your own entire big privet room, batheroom and kitchen while you can exprience the home local food and learn the local culture and stay with family.

SpainVilla Wastra is probably the most beautiful place we’ve ever been. It’s true that it is not a centric as other places in Ubud but if you’re looking for a place off the beaten track where you can unwind and just listen to the birds chirping, this is the place. We were lucky to be the only guests, which made the experience more unique. Besides, Maria, the host, was extremely helpful and caring. I actually cried when leaving the house.

NetherlandsThe only thing I can think of is that the wifi connection in my room was not strong enough, on the other hand its sometimes also nice to be offline. Especially in a place like this:)
Had a really nice stay at Villa Wastra. After a long driveway you'll reach a beautiful secluded villa which immediately felt very quiet and peaceful to me. This is the perfect place to come to rest and enjoy the view, also the room was huge! The owner Maria is very nice and I had really nice talks with her. In the evening its possible to get a really good homecooked dinner here and in the morning you can enjoy a great breakfast outside with a great view.

IndonesiaThere was a slight miscommunication when we checked in, so one of the rooms was not ready when we checked in at 5pm, but that was quickly sorted out without issue (it helped that we were the only people staying in the villa that night).
Villa Wastra was great. A lovely old Balinese house in the middle of the jungle, we enjoyed just chilling as a family. It is not really close to anything but we had our own car so that is how we wanted it. The staff served us excellent breakfast (included) and a nice home-cooked dinner when we asked if they could. Very relaxing and will go back!

AustraliaThe lack of quality wifi. However, there is an upgraded system available for emergencies. You need to download Netflix movies prior to arrival if you want this entertainment.
This is a beautiful, traditional Balinese home that has been adapted for travellers. It looks as though it has grown up out of the jungle. The rooms are huge with a hot/cold water system for drinking with a full sized fridge and microwave. Breakfast is extensive. The walls are so thick you're insulated against the usual noises of dogs barking and roosters/hens. The host enjoys a chat and we exchanged views and knowledge on many subjects.
