Why Good Reviews Are the Most Powerful Marketing Tool for Mediterranean Marinas
In the Med's competitive marina scene, good reviews are the new currency—miss them, and you’re leaving revenue and trust on the dock.
Whether you're nestled in the Balearics, the Greek Isles, or the Côte d’Azur, today’s marinas live and
die by what boaters say online—but only if you build and manage that reputation. Studies show that 92% of boaters read reviews before booking, and over 70% trust peer reviews more than marina websites. Even better? Marinas with 25 or more positive reviews often see a 20–30% spike in bookings. Reviews aren’t just social proof—they drive visibility, pricing power, repeat visits—and ultimately, revenue.
