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 reviewThere's everything to like about Villa Sofie. It is modern, extremely well-equipped, with a beautiful pool. It is well located about 5-minutes walk from the main beach road where there are loads of shops and restaurants and another 5-minutes walk from the beautiful Sanur beaches where there are even more restaurants and bars. The unique, metallic-feel floor tiles and enormous-sized beds are worth a special mention!
Its a minor criticism but for non-Indonesian guests, there are lots of TV channels on the package that are not available. A smart TV with access to Netflix would be the cherry on the top of an exceptional villa.
Thank you so much for your fabulous review, it was a pleasure to host you.

Verified reviewWhat a great villa. 2 separate rooms and huge king size beds in each. Very secure, and Liz looks after the unit each day. Minutes walk to the main street and all the shopping you need. Bit of a pay it forward for tea coffee and sugar etc, and a 20l water bottle set up (cold, natural and hot) in the kitchen. Would recommend for couples or a family with kids who are pool safe. Would recommend and would stay again.
Thank you so much for being awesome guests and for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We hope that you can return again one day, Best wishes Vanessa & Liz and the Cool Bali Villas team

Verified reviewOur housekeeper Liz was such a sweet person. She looked after me when I became sick and went above and beyond her duties. The Villa itself was lovely and clean . It is situated a short walk from the main street and it's restaurants.
There was nothing not to like. Most places I have stayed had Netflix but this is not a big thing.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. Liz is most appreciative :-) Thank you for being awesome guests, we hope to host you again one day. Vanessa - Cool Bali Villas

Verified reviewWe loved our stay at Villa Sofie. Good value for money, beautiful villa in a central location in Sanur. Everything was new and clean, we used the private pool every day. Internet worked perfectly, good number of TV channels. Liz was on hand for everything we needed.
The street was flooded a few times after heavy rain, making it hard to pass. But not the fault of the villa's owners
