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):
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.).

AustraliaThere is heaps of shade around the pool. If you need uninterrupted sunlight (not me, I’m pale), plan to visit the beach or a beach-club with a pool. Liam and Elise will have the best suggestions as always
The hosts and staff are what really make the difference. I have never received such great service, going above and beyond to make sure of a comfortable stay. They have the best local suggestions with 10+ years in the area

Excellent location, beautiful room, and very friendly staff. The place really felt like a home. Liam and Elise were excellent hosts also, and super helpful with tips on places to visit. Tucked away at the end of the road meaning it was nice and quiet, but only a few minutes away from restaurants and bars.

A HIDDEN GEM!!!! The staff were so wonderful! It’s a beautiful villa owned by two lovely foreigners. Elise and Liam have left an imprint in our hearts! They will accommodate any of your needs and beyond! This has been the best experience for us traveling all the way from South Africa! Elise and Liam tried to help us even with our extra luggage and late checkout. Dealing with foreigners sure have created such an ease as they understand our needs better coming from traveling personally too! Location- amazing! It was very convenient to many restaurants and cafes within 10 minutes. With traffic in Bali- this is all you need to motivate you to book it! Cleanliness- 5 stars! The staff was so sweet and cleaned up daily. They didn’t interrupt your stays early morning as other places do, and are very attentive and just the sweetest! Rooms- Rooms boasted a lovely comfy bed that did not want to make us leave! Soft bedding and a net for mosquitos. Breakfast- the Omelette was great, we didn’t get to fully experience the breakfasts as we woke up late often, but the COFFEE! Omg. The real showstopper. Overall- don’t think twice. Book it! For the price you pay, you get 5 star treatment. We stayed at an international hotel after in Jimbaran and quite frankly i feel we paid less at Melali but got much better treatment. The warmth , the love and the happiness we experienced there, we will carry in our hearts wherever we go!

NetherlandsCan’t find anything to complain about. It was perfect. And as you can see in my other reviews, mostly I can find something to complain about 😉
What a great place to stay and what a super host! Great staff also. It’s like a little bit a B&B, but with the privacy of a hotel. We had a great time there and everything was perfect. Beds are very comfortable, room is very clean and neat.

Hong KongWe stayed at the Melali Bingin for 6 nights and stayed in one of the rooms upstairs and also the private villa. Both were absolutely beautiful and exceeded all of our expectations. The staff are so friendly and can never do anymore for you, we particularly loved the delicious breakfast that we had each morning. We were working remotely from Melali on some of the days and loved being able to use the facilities and the pool. Elise and Liam are incredible hosts and made us feel completely at home the whole time, they had the best recommendations and we enjoyed getting to know them during our stay. We already can’t wait to visit again next time :)

SpainWe absolutely loved our stay here, we did not want to leave! This hotel is so special, so cared for and just beautiful. Every little detail has been thought of (wonderful toiletries, kimonos to use in the room, complimentary tea and coffee, books, stunning breakfasts.. I could go on). Elise and Liam are wonderful - so kind, helpful and friendly and make everyone feel at home straight away. They provide a little book in the room full of recommendations as well as their incredible blogs too (definitely read it all, there are great tips!) and are still happy to suggest things during your stay. They really know how to take care of their hotel and their guests and it shows. The hotel was a little oasis with a gorgeous garden and pool. We loved that it was a small hotel with just one other room and a villa, it felt so tranquil. The breakfasts are spectacular and wish I could have tried all of them! Thank you for a wonderful ending to our honeymoon, it was the perfect hotel!

PolandIf you are looking for a place that feels like home, Melali Bingin is the place for you. The property is beautiful and well-equipped, and the breakfasts and fruit smoothies are delicious. However, the best thing you will encounter at Melali is the people, with Elise and Liam at the forefront. They are lovely and kind souls who make the stay feel like a visit to close family. In our rooms, we received charming maps of the area with attractions drawn by Elise, and we could always count on their help, from small things like choosing activities to even assistance with an engagement proposal that wouldn't have succeeded without them ❤️❤️ Thanks to all of this, we are sure that we will return to you. ☺️

GermanyThe Melali Bingin is truly a beautiful place. There are only a few rooms and you feel like you are in a private home. The owner and the staff are very kind and I would highly recommend staying in that place when you visit Uluwatu. Close to the beaches and to most places like cafes and restaurants. There is nothing we didn't like!
