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.).

FranceThe property is quite remote so we recommend to have a car and love surfing / kiting. Also the place is 25 minutes from essaouira by car and beach is 25 mins walking
Nice common areas/rooftops. Amazing view, excellent tajine. The place benefits from several kitchens and allow people to cook there as well. Convivial atmosphere supported by the owner being in contact with the guest and offering precious advices

United KingdomEverything was great.
We loved the place so much we stayed an extra 2 nights. Top location, friendly staff, delicious breakfast. Incredible views, stunning sunrises and sunsets. We walked up to the sand dunes at Cap Sim, along the beach to Sidi Kaouki for lunch, so much to see. Felt connected to nature here, such a beautiful landscape. Perfect place to rest, relax, surf, hike, yoga, meditate or write.

LithuaniaWe did not have any bin and no toiletries were provided, as ‘mosts guests have theirs’. The room had no heating so in the mornings it was reeeaallyyy cooold. The shower pressure is whimsical, the water jumps from nothing to fountains and from lukewarm to boiling, I had to give up trying to wash my long hair and leave it for another stay.
The area is lovely and the hosts are great. The vibe of the whole place is soothing and the layout is unique. The bed was comfy, we also enjoyed having our little terrace! A walk to the seaside is picture perfect, however, if you don’t surf, there’s literally nothing to do-only one restaurant open and we failed to find a shop, but it’s definitely there as our neighbours found it :D also, it’s not in Sidi Kaouki but slightly to the right of it and the townlet is super tiny, like 30 houses or so.

LithuaniaDue to rain at night some water came inside. However it was not our room affected, just the common areas
In addition to everything being smooth and as expected, it was probably the best breakfast out of 8 places we visited in Morocco, very fresh

The setup, relaxed atmosphere, and access to the kitchen. The views of the ocean were superb. You look down at the surf, licking the seemingly endless beach below. I hope to come back soon.

PhilippinesI personally didn’t love how far away it was from Essaouira Medina but that was my own mistake for not checking the location of the accomodation properly before I booked it. Nothing against this place, but just an FYI that it is 25 mins from the main part of town.
Very welcoming staff and such a cute village. The man that runs the local supermarket in the village is absolutely beautiful and known for his generosity. The views are incredible and the room was very comfy and well laid out. Perfect spot if you’re a surfer.
