Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

BrazilThe hotel is very well located, you can easily walk there from Porto. The staff are super nice and always ready to help. Even when it's raining, the beach still looks beautiful, the sea almost transparent. Breakfast offers lots of different fruits. And the restaurant has awesome healthy choices, I suggest trying the cheese and pumpkin salad.

Great place, just on the edge of the main strip around the port. You can walk 200 metres to your left to get to Tyrtle Point and 200 metres to your right for all the bars and restaurants. This place also has a beautiful cafe stretching from the property and also on the beach. They do great breakfasts, lunch, and dinner. We paid for breakfast in our room rate and were impressed every day. You get a fresh juice (we had dragon fruit. Watermelon, and a mix of both),, a plate of fruit (usually pineapple, 2 melon types, and dragon fruit), coffee/latte/tea/etc, then a choice of many gorgeous offerings (see pics for menu and a few items). The rooms were very spacious, lovely big comfy beds, wardrobe, mini bar, everything you would need. Beautifully decorated in a beach style. Bathroom was big with a great shower, and had your shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and hand wash. Rooms also had a lovely wicker type beach bag with beach towels. The property is right on a lovely beach where you also have sun loungers. The staff who work here are an asset to the property. All very polite and always willing to help. From reception, to cafe/restaurant, room cleaners, and those tending the grounds. They really made our stay pleasurable. Would definitely stay here again and recommend for others visiting the island. Well done Bale Sampan!!!!

CanadaThe bathroom is partially opened which allowed mosquitoes to come into the room. The mini bar is stocked with booze at expensive prices. We just emptied it and put our own water and beer in it to keep cold. Also it really would have been nice to have some type of fan on outside deck. It was extremely humid when we were there and difficult to sit outside with the many flies and mosquitoes.
This was our 3rd stay at the Bale Sampan. Good location, across from the beach and not in the noisy part of town. Breakfast was very good and a very attentive staff. Small but nice pool. Large room with aircon, fridge, kettle, beach bag and towels.

Cannot recommend enough! We travelled with two other couples wh we’re all spoiled by staff over our three night stay. Make up of room every day was a special occasion as you were welcomed back with amazing artwork on your bed made from towels, flowe petals a s plant leaves. Staff seemed very happy to work here and it showed as they were always smiling and happy to see you and have a conversation. Location is very good on the island with its own designated spot right on the beach with tables sun lounges and umbrellas. Lastly food is amazing! Great range of choice and fresh! We will return to Bale Sampan again!!!

Spent two nights at Bale Sampan Bungalows. I was in a garden view room at the back of the resort and it was very quiet. The aircon was super cold and the bar fridge worked very well. The room was spotlessly clean and Abdul went to great efforts to make me feel welcome with his bed designs! Staff were friendly and accommodating. The beach opposite was perfect with crystal clear blue waters. Beds and dining tables were available on the beach also. Their Taste restaurant offered service on the beach as well as in their restaurant area. Breakfast choices were good and it was always very tasty. The location of Bale Sampan is an easy walk from the harbour in the quieter part of Gili T. Reasonably priced. Would recommend.
