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.).

SingaporeOne thing we wish we knew before booking, though it was manageable is that the villa is split into 2 fully independent “zones” (2 bedroom one side, 1 bedroom the other side) with no inside go-through : at night with young kids, this means you cannot really lock the villa if you want to leave a chance to your young kids to come and look for their parents in case of issues ; which can be felt uncomfortable to leave them in an unlock bedroom (unless you lock them from outside but they might struggle to unlock if any problem).
Everything ! Super nice villa, well taken care of. The pool and the outside dining area is really great

So helpful with organising drivers for the day and coming every morning to clean and make a lovely breakfast for us. Hope the female staff members daughter had a wonderful 5th birthday.

Absolutely fantastic haven of tranquility. Gorgeous home, pool all to ourselves in a lovely garden setting. Staff all excellent, especially Made. Breakfast made everyday. Lovely warning Puspa at top of street across the busy road. Lots of cafes and restaurants to eat but on busy main road. Supermarket nearby. Recommend candidates and this spot if you need a reset and time to yourselves by your own pool in resort standard surrounds. Will definitely go back when we need a good rest and relax. Worth the 90 minutes from airport drive to walk into our own private oasis. We were a couple so just used one side of the property but the other rooms and bathroom looked as good. Recommend the massage from lady who comes to you.

New Zealand-
The villa was just beautiful with a deep pool and beautiful garden. The beds were comfortable and the large living room also had air con. We are a family with 3 almost grown children and it suited us well. Lots of restaurants very close and we ordered delivery pizza from ciao pizza (delicious) to enjoy the villa in the evenings too. We spent 2 days at virgin beach which was beautiful and just a short taxi trip away. Enjoyed sightseeing in East Bali too. Lovely staff - we will be back!

AustraliaAll great.
What a FABULOUS place. HUGE villa and grounds, spotless, and the most WONDERFUL staff. As a couple, we had searched for a 1 bedroom villa with a private pool and locked this property in for 10 nights. We missed that it was, in fact, a sprawling 3 bedroom villa. On arrival we played like Goldie Locks and got to choose our bedroom. The king bed was incredibly comfortable; it's a small thing, but loved that the kitchen hosted a 19L water cooler, so no daily lugging bottled water from a shop. And, almost unheard of ... there's a washing machine. It is located at the northern end of the Candidasa tourist strip, but down a side street, and is surrounded by nothing much other than dense coconut palms, banana trees, a multitude of hens, chicks, roosters and some cows! Delightful surrounds if you're looking for something more natural. The property is also only 100 to 600 meters from great warungs, with more tourist centric cafes/restaurants within 1km. The warm, friendly, and obliging Ni Made and I Putu looked after our breakfast and incredibly thorough cleaning of the whole villa complex daily, and I Nyoman oversaw the gardens and a couple of small items we needed sorted. And don't look further afield than the property's recommended driver, Conk - an excellent driver and guide, knowledgeable and fun. Hopefully, the owner of this property appreciates the great asset he has in Villa Serenity's staff. After many trips to Bali, this was our first stay in Candidasa. We believe having the luck to stay at Villa Serenity has left us wishing to return. Thank you, score 100/100!

AustraliaThere is nothing not to like. The sound of the roosters and dogs make it more enjoyable.
Absolutely fantastic villa in the perfect location surrounded by local houses. As soon as you enter the front door you are relaxed and at ease..The villa is complemented by staff Made and Putu who will go above and beyond to make your stay even more enjoyable. Everyone in the area are very friendly and we felt safe day and night. Restaurants and Warungs are minutes away with many choices. At the moment the area is very quiet and worth the 2 hour journey from the airport. We went to relax and were not disappointed.

SingaporeN.A.
Perfect locale for city slickers who want to experience parts of Bali that are relatively untouched by commercialization. John has found the ideal location and built a neat property that is hidden away, yet is a few minutes walk from restaurants and grocery stores. A special call out to the people who make the Villa into a home - Chong (guide & driver), Made & Putu (Housekeepers) and Nyoman (Estate Manager). They ensure the stay is perfect with authentic Balinese hospitality and are genuinely good people looking out for you.
