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 review- Nice location with sea view - Transport offered to and from Banjar railway station - Friendly staff - Good and cheap food - cheap surfboard rental (100k / day) or lessons (400k / hr)
- no local Grav or bluebird taxi's available, so walk tot the main surf spot - depending on the wind direction the beach can be poluted with too much plastic waste

Verified reviewThis was my favourite place to stay in my travels so far. Beautiful, comfortable rooms in a luscious garden, right across the road from the beach. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and the breakfast was great. We asked to rent scooters and they were there within minutes. We wish we could’ve stayed longer.
There is a mosque very close by with a very loud speaker which sounds like it is inside the property. Other than that, we loved every minute of our stay here!

Verified reviewWe loved the setting amongst nature and lots of green as well as some insect sounds! If you love nature and don’t mind occasional spotting of a nature i.e. a little frog in the outdoor bathroom then you will fall in love with this place. Lovely comfy beds, close to the beach (although be careful of rocks). Great for surfers almost opposite a popular surfing point. Very helpful staff at reception!

Verified reviewthe closeness to The reef, our favourite surf spot. we had 3 resident frogs living in the bathroom who we also liked. we also liked the night security guard who was very friendly. Banana pancakes were great. and the free tea was a nice touch.
the fact they did not allow us to order our free breakfast after 10:02am. That was a little unreasonable, and made us very annoyed when we paid for this in our room rate. didn’t like the size of the mosquito net, not fitting properly around the bed.

Verified reviewWe love Villa Monyet! The rooms are basic but lovely and the atmosphere is so relaxed. It is in the perfect location to surf the reef and only a 2 minute scoot away from the point. The staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us!

Verified reviewWe stayed in the Family Surf Room with three queen beds, perfect for a larger family group. Property is right across the beach, which was perfect for swimming and playing with children, the beach for surfing is a bit further out. Staff are friendly and helpful, food selection at the restaurant is not that many but enough and delicious. We recommend ordering Crispy Tempe and Chicken Satay! BBQ night with a traditional Sundanese banana leaf dinner was also incredible.
Bed mattress was a bit hard and wasn't that comfortable.
