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...).

IndiaKitchen and breakfast is disorganized, chaotic. Facilities are also very poor during breakfast Taste of room service food is a let down. Property is little outdated and needs refurbishing Lot of walking to beach, to kitchen area and rooms No phone in the room for service. Everything on mobile, sometimes busy and delayed 30 mins drive to main city and beach area one way Requires upfront full payment to confirm booking
Size of property is very good Rooms are clean and Spacious Private beach is very good Quick service for any calls Nice spa facilities Value for money Cycles are available anytime Indoor, in room and outdoor pools are good Well maintained property with lot of greenery and privacy Parking is available Buggy is available Staff are well mannered and Friendly Manager and staff are hardworking.

IndiaThere are no dislikes. Just a recommendation that if the Final Bill can be sent to the Guest couple of Hours prior to the checkout would be helpful.
We as a Family thoroughly had a unique experience at Dune Eco Beach Village and Spa, Pondicherry. Of course we did enjoy our stay here with utmost satisfaction to cherish and remember for at least the next decade. Inception polite welcome by young receptionists and duly welcomed by the Relationship Manager himself none other than Mr. Umapathy with his instinctive warmth and excitement filling in Us was a soothing touch. Rajesh catering at the Restaurant was a Toofan 👍 experience. The whole staff were filled with smiles all the way through. Thank You Team Dune🙂

IndiaI am a vegetarian and the options for breakfast, lunch dinner menu were very limited. got bored with the same dishes every day.
The rooms and service was excellent. The staff were very friendly and ready to help. The villas are spaced wide with lots of privacy and seclusion. The private swimming pool was great. this was my second stay on the property.

United StatesThe manager of the spa kept changing the price of services and what was included in the spa package, daily. It felt like he was trying to get as much money as possible out of me and even gave different prices to each guest for the same service. This did not feel good. It states on the website, brochure and all around the property that there is free yoga each morning. It only happened on Sat during my 5 day stay.
The environment is beautiful, the restaurant is tasty, the pool clean and the beach nice.

IndiaThe room was nothing like the picture We had taken non AC room and it was 7500 /- Which was not worth as it was full of bugs and if it would have rained that day the entire place would have been flooded. Was not worth the money. Our holiday was spoilt bcoz of the place. Was really bad. I wouldn't recommend the normal rooms too for old ppl or for those who are afraid of insects. Also I sprained my leg walking on the floor of non AC room.
Handmade mango jam was gud. Breakfast was bad

IndiaThe rooms are not worth the amount spent. The so called courtyard rooms are basic in facilities in the name of village tourism. Hot water not available, worms in the room, non fuctinal furnitures small room.. Restaurant food though nice cant eat there due to flies. Choose to eat from room. A big no if you are stayimg there with small kids.
Promity to beach , Large green campus.
