Conclusion

The review sample shows recurring problems with cancellations, listing accuracy and slow refund or complaint handling. Multiple reviewers report being rebooked last‑minute, receiving properties that differ from descriptions or facing long delays from customer service. At the same time, a minority of guests describe stays that matched the listing and clear communication. Consumers considering Belvilla should verify critical details (bedrooms, pet rules, air conditioning), keep screenshots of listings and confirmations, confirm directly with the owner where possible, and check the cancellation and refund policy before payment.
