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.).

Germanythe bathroom wasn’t to clean and the kitchen staff was not caring to much about friendliness or has not been that welcoming. something I would expect being a guest in a hotel.
the house has got a great location and is close to the beach, 15 min. walk to the Medina. the outside area of the hotel is lovely!

ItalyThe roof terrace was my wife's favourite while I liked the pool and spa facilities.
My wife and I spent 3 amazing days in Essaouira with Baptiste and his team of amazing chefs and staff. From the very first welcome we knew that it would be an exceptional stay. Bapiste explained in 15 minutes, while completing the necessary paperwork, some lifehacks for Essaouira. Too many to list but one simple example was taxi fares, he said they cost this or that (depending on night or day) this simple piece of information took a layer of not knowing from our daily activities and knowing the price, I'll let Baptiste tell you when you arrive, made the hailing and payment of the taxi drivers a simple task. For those that know nothing to do with "how much is it?" in Morocco 🇲🇦 is simple. Long story short I would highly recommend Vent des Dunes to anyone fortunate enough to spend time in Essaouira.

Close to beach, restaurants etc. Value for money. Lovely building, quiet too. Roof top area great.

United KingdomThe mattress was a bit hard, room could be a bit bigger.
Lovely place to unwind and calm. We liked the location in the garden and rooftop terrace. Staff were attentive. The manager Baptist was friendly and informative, also helped us to book quads, meal out and hammam, which we really enjoyed. Food very nice at the hotel, we had a dinner one night at the rooftop terrace, and tagine was delicious. Very close to the beautiful beach and a few nice beach bars and restaurants around. We would love to come back, and stay again at Vent des Dunes.

BelgiumWonderful stay! Location is very good - the beach is 5 min walk (very convenient for kite/surfers), town center is nice 20 minutes walk by the seaside. You can chill in the garden next to the pool or on the amazing rooftop (also great as a working space). Room was quite small but very cosy and clean - all you need. Breakfast (and possible dinner which was absolutely delicious) is served on the rooftop. And last, but not least, Baptiste is an amazing host with the best tips for restaurants :)

GermanyIt was the 10th time, that we came to Essaouira! The room was very comfortable, cleanx, arrange lovely and the little terrasse was cute and under the beautiful Bougainvillea tree. The main terrasse was very stylish and with a nice view, where we take breakfast every morning. The staff was so nice and adorable!! Every morning, when we came up to the terrasse, it takes one minute and everything was on the table! Baptist, our host, did everything and answer every question, that we feel very comfortable and happy! When we arrived at 5am in the morning, he was awake with the nightmanager and welcome us very heartwarming and uncomplicated! And at our departure day, he organized, that we get a big breakfast package with food and drinks! So awesome! We will guaranteed come back to The Ventes Des Dunes! Thank you very much, for the lovely stay!!!
