Cleaning is the first satisfaction driver for guests on Airbnb, Booking and Vrbo. In La Réunion, where heat, tropical humidity and sea salt speed up wear and favour mould, hotel-grade cleaning is non-negotiable. Here is how Yes Conciergerie organises Airbnb cleaning across La Réunion, in Saint-Denis, Saint-Gilles-les-Bains, Saint-Paul, Saint-Pierre, Saint-Leu and surrounding communes.
Why cleaning matters so much in La Réunion
La Réunion has a tropical climate with high year-round humidity and significant marine exposure on the west and south coasts. Practically: mould in bathroom joints, salt on metal surfaces, sand and volcanic ash dust brought in by guests after a hike on Piton de la Fournaise. A rigorous hotel-grade cleaning protects your surfaces, your linen and your Airbnb rating.
The Yes 5-step cleaning protocol
- 1. Team arrival inspection: pre-cleaning photos for traceability and damage reporting.
- 2. Dusting, vacuuming, sweeping and floor cleaning, followed by surface cleaning (kitchen, bathrooms, toilets) with tropical-climate-adapted products.
- 3. Change and washing of bed linen, towels, tea towels: white sheets washed at 60°C, ironed, hotel-folded.
- 4. Consumables check: toilet paper, soap, shower gel, shampoo, salt and pepper, coffee, tea, bottled water — restocked as needed.
- 5. Final check and photos: room-by-room checklist, post-cleaning photos, owner message, calendar update.
Linen: a sensitive item in a tropical climate
Yes Conciergerie works with local laundry partners. Linen is washed at 60°C, dried in professional dryers (no air drying because of humidity), ironed and folded to hotel standard. Duvet and mattress covers are changed at every stay. A backup stock is kept on site to absorb tight turnarounds in high season.
How much does cleaning cost in La Réunion?
Cleaning rates depend on size, number of rooms, finish level requested and frequency. In La Réunion, expect on average between €60 and €150 per cleaning for a 1- to 3-bedroom flat. This cost is billed to the guest in the Airbnb / Booking cleaning fee and does not impact your rental income.
With Yes Conciergerie, cleaning is included in our service: we manage the cleaning teams, linen, consumables and quality, and pass the fee to the guest via the platform. You have nothing to organise.
Special case: post-cyclone
From November to March, after an orange or red cyclone alert, specific cleaning is needed: outdoor furniture reset, terrace cleaning, water-tightness check, electrical installation control. Yes Conciergerie organises this post-event cleaning and brings in specialist contractors if necessary (tree trimming, plumbing, electrics).
The bi-annual deep cleaning
On top of cleaning between every stay, we recommend a deep cleaning every 6 months: bathroom joint cleaning, ventilation outlets, kitchen extractor, blinds and shutters, mattresses (anti-mite), sofas. Yes Conciergerie can schedule this deep cleaning during a calendar gap you tell us about.
