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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

CanadaGorgeous view, great location (2 min from Lipah beach where the snorkeling is incredible). The owner was very friendly and understanding. The staff was super helpful and someone even gave me Aloe Veres help with my sunburn. The room was huge, beautifully decorated and comfortable, with a great view over the water. The pizza at the restaurant was delicious!!

United KingdomBreakfast was average but adequate given the the room price.
I booked Bayu as I wanted a sea view but to still be close to the beach and to be able to snorkel within walking distance and it sure delivered! The room was large and clean with a nice little balcony and full glass windows and even ocean view from the shower. Fantastic view overlooking Lipah beach and you just walk across the road and down about 30 steps to the beach and fantastic snorkeling. In the water within a minute of closing your room door! Staff were also very nice. There are great food options on the beach and if you turn left of the hotel and walk along the road about 100m there are many more, my favourite for Indo food was Wayans warung, really delicious freshly made food and the Arak amed is definietly worth a taste or 2! There is also a mini mart and money changer within about a 5 minute walk. I highly recommend Bayu Cottages and Lipah beach if you are looking for a very laidback holiday without all the tourist traps.

AustraliaWhats not to like!
Fantastic location opposite Lipah Beach with great snorkelling. The rooms are bright and spacious with amazing views from inside and out! The bed is so comfortable and we loved having a day bed inside to laze on. Lovely fluffy bath and pool towels. Nice to have a small pool and sunbeds too. Communication with the owner was always prompt and friendly.

AustraliaBreakfast was simple, as well as restaurant space. We stayed for 3 nights and the room didn´t get made, cleaned. I asked one day and it still didn´t get cleaned which was the only real negative feedback. Maybe make sure you ask them in the morning and make sure they understood!
Excellent communication with the hotel manager (owner?) Amanda. Prompt responses and very helpful with organising all the we needed. Beautiful view from the rooms and all spaces. Excellent location, in front of one of my favourite beaches. Quiet place.

New ZealandWell beyond anyones control ,the roosters in the morning however ,I also loved that it felt part of being in a more rural setting rather than a built up touristy hub.
Breakfast was great and the staff always very keen to help and do their best. We were very well looked after and when we needed some extra things took us to get them on their motorbikes. Also arranged for the doctor to visit Bayu for my sick friend. Very authentic and kind. ( the visiting pet Otter was a hit !)

AustraliaIt was a little way out of the centre but still had some nice restaurants nearby, especially Agung and Coral View cafe on the beach. pillows were a little hard.
Breakfast was fine. Basic but fine. Fresh fruit, pancake or eggs one way or the other. Balinese coffee strong and good, and also had green tea for my wife. Close to great snorkelling.

We initially only intended to stay for 2 nights but Bayu Cottages really made us feel at home and we ended up staying longer. Everything was perfect- Comfortable beds, great shower and the room was cleaned and made up daily. The staff are super friendly and helpful and gave us good tips on what to do in the area. Would highly recommend a stay here if you visit Amed. Thank You!

SwedenThe aircon was a bit tired in both rooms, so it never really got completely cold, but it did make a difference, so not a huge problem. We did not bother, but there are a lot of stairs to climb. Just be aware, if that’s an issue for you.
The building is right above Lipah beach and consists of seven rooms and a restaurant, which also serves as the reception. Me amd my teenage daughter stayed stayed three nights and we enjoyed the privacy, that such a small establishment offers. At times, we had the whole pool all for ourselves. Beautifuldetails all over the building, Balinese statues amd wall reliefs. As of the rooms, we started our stay in the downstairs double room and moved after upgrade higher up into a three bed suite higher; both with marvellous views to the ocean. The upgrade did not necessarily feel better other than because of the somewhat bigger and more private balcony. Otherwise the rooms are similarly comfortable, clean, fresh, all goes in blue and white. Maybe a bit unpersonal. Bathrooms also big and comfortable. Best spot to enjoy sunset is definitely at the pool - or at the beach 5 min walk away.
