TRAVEL SAFELY WITH US AT YOUR SIDE

We understand very well that you have questions about your booked holiday home. Of course we would like to help you and provide clarity. Our customer service is currently flooded with questions, so answers by phone, email or social media unfortunately take longer than you are used to from us, for which we apologize.

Updated FAQ’s
If you booked with us on or before 11 March 2020:
If you are not allowed to travel because of COVID-19 restrictions, you may cancel your trip free of charge. Please note, that quarantine after the stay and the requirement of a corona-test do not justify free cancellation.
If you booked with us on or after 12 March 2020:
Cancellation free of charge is in principle not possible. This is only different if the holiday home is not allowed to welcome you.
*What is a voucher?
A voucher is a digital credit issued by Belvilla, with which you can make a new booking.
As we have different rules for each situation we explain this further here:
There are two different types of cancellations:
1. How do I receive my voucher?
If we have promised you the voucher, we will send it to you by email. Please check your 'unwanted email'-box (SPAM) in case you haven't received it yet. At the moment we are very busy, but we will make sure that you receive the voucher as soon as possible.
2. I have already been promised a voucher and my booking has already been cancelled, when will I receive this voucher?
If we have already cancelled your booking as a result of earlier telephone contact and have promised you a voucher, we would like to ask for your patience. At the moment we are busy sending these vouchers and we will make sure you will receive your voucher as soon as possible.
3. I would like to make a new booking, but I haven't received my voucher yet.
If you would like to make a new booking and still did not receive your voucher that is not a problem. We can help you make the new booking and adjust the price with the amount of your voucher even if you didn’t receive the voucher yet. To do so, please call Customer Service.
4. How do I use the voucher?
When you make a booking on our website, we ask you to use your unique voucher code on the payment page. When you enter the voucher code, the amount will automatically be deducted from the voucher total, depending on the booking you make. If your booking amount is lower than the value of the voucher, the remaining balance is still available on your voucher and can be used for future bookings. However, if the booking amount is higher than the value of the voucher, the remaining balance must be paid during the payment process.
Note you must add any discount or promo codes prior to the payment page. The option to add your voucher will be available on the payment page under a separate field.
5. What is the amount of the voucher?
The amount of the voucher is the total amount already paid for your current booking including local charges and pro-rata insurance costs (if applicable). Any deposit already paid to Belvilla will be refunded in cash (due to the extra workload at the moment this process can take up to 8 weeks).
6. Why does Belvilla use vouchers?
We realise that - under normal circumstances - in the event of a cancellation by Belvilla, we would refund the amount already paid in cash. However, the current situation is so exceptional that we believe it is justified to make an exception. We are counting on your kind understanding for this.
7. What if I don’t want a voucher but my money back?
We are working on a way you can ask for your refund in ‘My Belvilla’. This will be the fastest option to collect the money and deactivate your voucher.
In a situation when we need to cancel your booking because of the government/authorities restrictions that are in place, a so-called force majeure situation. In this case, you have/will receive(d) a Corona voucher that is valid for 3 years to book a new holiday. If you do not use this voucher, you can request a refund 6 months from the voucher issue date. Belvilla has another 6 months to complete the refund. Refunds are not possible for any other extra discounts offered by Belvilla.
7A. Can I get a cash refund if I am not able to use my voucher?
If you have a corona voucher, you may request a cash refund 6 months after the voucher issue date. If you have a Belvilla voucher, you may request a cash refund 12 months after the voucher issue date. In case, there is any balance on your voucher and you do not ask for a refund, the balance will automatically be refunded to you after the voucher expiry date.
8. How long is my voucher valid for?
We kindly request you to check in ‘My Belvilla’ for the actual dates and value
9. Is this voucher transferable to another person?
Unfortunately, the Corona voucher can only be used by the main booker and is not transferable. The Belvilla voucher is freely transferable. Look after your voucher as Belvilla cannot be held liable for any loss, theft or misuse of the voucher.
10. What should I do if I am on my holiday and the situation changes, e.g. a lockdown?
If you are staying in an area where the travel warning changes (e.g. lockdown), please contact us via the 24/7 SOS (number listed on your travel voucher) and the local offices. Until then, stay safe and follow the advice of the relevant authorities.
11. I am travelling within 3 days from now and I did not receive any message from Belvilla. What should I do?
If we didn’t reach out to you and you didn’t reach out to us, we assume that you will go on your well-deserved holiday. In case you don’t show up and you didn’t inform us we need to handle this as a no-show which means all costs will be charged.
If you decide you don’t want to go on holiday, we ask you kindly to contact us immediately to see how we can help you to minimize the cancellation fee.
12. What are the advantages of the voucher?
Your voucher is valid for use with Belvilla for 3 years from the voucher issue date. Vouchers that were already issued in the beginning of the pandemic with a validity of 1 year are extended to 3 years (we will send you a new voucher per email). This means that you can even make a booking in 2023 for all dates and holiday homes available on the Belvilla website.
13. Can I use this voucher to book a summer and/or winter holiday?
Yes of course you can! This voucher is valid for ALL holidays that can be booked through Belvilla. Check our wide range of holiday homes on our website.
14. What if the newly booked holiday home is cheaper than the amount on my voucher?
The amount on this voucher that has not been used for the new booking will remain valid on the voucher for later use before the expiration date of the voucher (3 years after the voucher was issued). Vouchers that were already issued at the beginning of the pandemic with a validity of 1 year are extended to 3 years. And if you do not use the voucher, you can request a refund.
15. What if the newly booked holiday home costs more than the amount on my voucher?
In case you have made a new booking that costs more than the amount on your voucher, you will be asked to pay the difference.
16. Can I use the voucher for multiple bookings?
Yes, it is possible to use the voucher for multiple bookings. The amount on the voucher that has not been used for the new booking will remain valid on the voucher for later use before the expiration date of the voucher. Please check your ‘My Belvilla’ account to see the remaining amount on your voucher
17. What if I make a new booking with the voucher and there are restrictions?
Please note that if you use your voucher, some countries may still have travel restrictions on your chosen arrival date. Please make sure to check this before you travel. In case you have booked a new holiday home with the voucher, and it, unfortunately, has to be cancelled again due to a changed travel restriction, you will receive the paid amount in the form of a new voucher. Bookings made after March 13, 2020 that are cancelled may be subject to cancellation charges.
We will always follow the rules of the relevant authorities regarding social distancing and other restrictions that are in place. We would recommend that you check before travelling for any relevant travel restrictions and reach out to us if these restrictions restrain your way of reaching the holiday home or your stay at the holiday home. We will help you with a solution. If any social restrictions at your destination apply, like restaurants, bars, museums, etc. being closed, we cannot cancel your booking free of charge, as this does not affect your stay in our holiday home.
18. I have made a future booking with Belvilla, but I am worried that I will not be able to travel because of the Coronavirus, what should I do?
We advise you to stay informed of the measures and travel advice of your own government and local authorities. If you encounter any restrictions prohibiting your stay, please contact us. Please do not refrain from paying your booking as this will cancel your booking automatically with cancellation costs. Your safety comes first! We keep a close eye on all our bookings according to closed country borders.
In case there are no restrictions in place for your booked holiday home, we don’t cancel your booking and we hope you will enjoy your well deserved holiday with us. If you would like to cancel your booking yourself, normal cancellation policies are in place and we advise you to contact us. If you do not contact us and do not show up on the booked date, we are very sorry but we can’t return the money paid.
19. Why am I informed by email that my booking will be cancelled and not by phone?
We are sorry that we do not have the capacity to inform you personally at this time.
In order to remain available as much as possible for urgent questions and calls, we have decided to inform you by email. We apologize for the impersonal approach and thank you for your understanding.
20. How can I keep my cancelled booking confirmation?
You have received the cancelled booking contract by email. Please keep this email together with your voucher and your original proof of payment in your archive on your computer for future reference.
If you use 'My Belvilla', the booking details will also be saved in your 'My Belvilla' account.

As per February 1st, 2021 we are no longer a member of SGR.
We have decided to cancel our membership with SGR as SGR has decided to charge us an amount of 10 Euros per booked holiday home as of 1 February 2021. Although we respect this decision, none of the other vacation rental companies is a member of SGR, so the price increase makes us less competitive.
In the past years we have done several researches on the added value of SGR on the booking behaviour of our clients, whereby the impact was limited. In addition to that, the number of guest bookings through our brands mostly grew outside of the Netherlands, where the possible added value of SGR is unknown.
As confidence to travel increases and business recovers, we have decided to currently stop issuing vouchers.
1. What happens to my SGR-voucher now that you are no longer an SGR-member?
- There is no change for you. We have an agreement on this with SGR and the SGR coverance stays in place under its normal terms and conditions. For further information we kindly refer you to the FAQ that applies for vouchers issued before February 1st 2021.
2. I made a booking with you before February 1, 2021 and by that time it was still covered by SGR. How is my booking impacted by the decision of Belvilla to leave SGR?
- Nothing has changed for you. Your booking is still covered by SGR. For more information about the SGR guarantee we refer you to www.sgr.nl .
3. What will change for me as a guest, now that you are no longer an SGR/ANVR member?
- If you have already made a booking then nothing changes. New bookings (made as of 1 February 2021) are no longer covered by the SGR guarantee scheme.
4. What if I need to cancel my booking after February 1st 2021, due to Covid restrictions?
If you booked with us on or before 11 March 2020:
If you are not allowed to travel because of COVID-19 restrictions, you may cancel your trip free of charge. We will pay back what you are entitled to. Please note, that quarantine after stay and the requirement of a corona-test do not justify free cancellation.
If you booked with us on or after 12 March 2020:
Cancellation free of charge is in principle not possible. This is only different if the holiday home is not allowed to welcome you.
5. What if I want to cancel my booking in the future due to personal reasons?
- The normal cancellation conditions will apply and we pay back what you are entitled to.
6. What should I do if I am on my holiday and the situation changes, e.g. a lockdown?
If you are staying in an area where the travel warning changes (e.g. lockdown), please contact us via the 24/7 SOS (number listed on your travel voucher) and the local offices. Until then, stay safe and follow the advice of the relevant authorities.
7. I am travelling within 3 days from now and I did not receive any message from Belvilla. What should I do?
If we didn’t reach out to you and you didn’t reach out to us, we assume that you will go on your well-deserved holiday. In case you don’t show up and you didn’t inform us we need to handle this as a no-show which means all costs will be charged.
If you decide you don’t want to go on holiday, we ask you kindly to contact us immediately to see how we can help you to minimize the cancelation fee.
8. I have made a future booking with Belvilla, but I am worried that I will not be able to travel because of the Coronavirus. What should I do?
We advise you to stay informed of the measures and travel advice of your own government and local authorities. If you encounter any restrictions prohibiting your stay, please contact us. Please do not refrain from paying your booking as this will cancel your booking automatically with cancellation costs.
In case there are no relevant changes in restrictions for your booked holiday home, we will not contact you and we hope you will enjoy your well deserved holiday with us.

If you do not contact us and do not show up on the booked date, we are very sorry but we can’t return the money paid.

TRAVEL SAFELY WITH US AT YOUR SIDE
Due to the global pandemic of Covid-19 we still see changes in the regulations governing international travel come into force. We understand very well that you have questions about your booked holiday home. Of course we like to help you and provide clarity. Our customer service team is still busy with the many questions that come in, so answers by phone, email or social media unfortunately take longer than you are used to from us, for which we apologize.
To help you the best we can, we offer you several possibilities to change or cancel your booking yourself. Please click here and see if this might help you so you will not have to wait for our customer service colleagues.
Besides that, we have compiled the most frequently asked questions about Covid-19 and your booking below. We hope this will give you more clarity. If you still have (additional) questions, please reach out to our Customer Service team. Thank you for your understanding.
We recommend that you keep abreast of the World Health Organization's guidelines and act accordingly.
For updated travel information from the European Union you can check this website or you can check the restrictions and travel advice from your respective authorities.
As per February 1st, 2021 we are no longer a member of SGR.
We have decided to cancel our membership with SGR as SGR has decided to charge us an amount of 10 Euros per booked holiday home as of 1 February 2021. Although we respect this decision, none of the other vacation rental companies is a member of SGR, so the price increase makes us less competitive.
In the past years we have done several researches on the added value of SGR on the booking behaviour of our clients, whereby the impact was limited. In addition to that, the number of guest bookings through our brands mostly grew outside of the Netherlands, where the possible added value of SGR is unknown.
As confidence to travel increases and business recovers, we have decided to currently stop issuing vouchers.
1. What happens to my SGR-voucher now that you are no longer an SGR-member?
- There is no change for you. We have an agreement on this with SGR and the SGR coverance stays in place under its normal terms and conditions. For further information we kindly refer you to the FAQ that applies for vouchers issued before February 1st 2021.
2. I made a booking with you before February 1, 2021 and by that time it was still covered by SGR. How is my booking impacted by the decision of Belvilla to leave SGR?
- Nothing has changed for you. Your booking is still covered by SGR. For more information about the SGR guarantee we refer you to www.sgr.nl .
3. What will change for me as a guest, now that you are no longer an SGR/ANVR member?
- If you have already made a booking then nothing changes. New bookings (made as of 1 February 2021) are no longer covered by the SGR guarantee scheme.
4. What if I need to cancel my booking after February 1st 2021, due to Covid restrictions?
If you booked with us on or before 11 March 2020:
If you are not allowed to travel because of COVID-19 restrictions, you may cancel your trip free of charge. We will pay back what you are entitled to. Please note, that quarantine after stay and the requirement of a corona-test do not justify free cancellation.
If you booked with us on or after 12 March 2020:
Cancellation free of charge is in principle not possible. This is only different if the holiday home is not allowed to welcome you.
5. What if I want to cancel my booking in the future due to personal reasons?
- The normal cancellation conditions will apply and we pay back what you are entitled to.
6. What should I do if I am on my holiday and the situation changes, e.g. a lockdown?
If you are staying in an area where the travel warning changes (e.g. lockdown), please contact us via the 24/7 SOS (number listed on your travel voucher) and the local offices. Until then, stay safe and follow the advice of the relevant authorities.
7. I am travelling within 3 days from now and I did not receive any message from Belvilla. What should I do?
If we didn’t reach out to you and you didn’t reach out to us, we assume that you will go on your well-deserved holiday. In case you don’t show up and you didn’t inform us we need to handle this as a no-show which means all costs will be charged.
If you decide you don’t want to go on holiday, we ask you kindly to contact us immediately to see how we can help you to minimize the cancelation fee.
8. I have made a future booking with Belvilla, but I am worried that I will not be able to travel because of the Coronavirus. What should I do?
We advise you to stay informed of the measures and travel advice of your own government and local authorities. If you encounter any restrictions prohibiting your stay, please contact us. Please do not refrain from paying your booking as this will cancel your booking automatically with cancellation costs.
In case there are no relevant changes in restrictions for your booked holiday home, we will not contact you and we hope you will enjoy your well deserved holiday with us. If you would like to cancel your booking yourself, normal cancellation policies are in place and we advise you to contact us. If you do not contact us and do not show up on the booked date, we are very sorry but we can’t return the money paid.
9. Why am I informed by email that my booking will be cancelled and not by phone?
We are sorry that we do not have the capacity to inform you personally at this time.
In order to remain available as much as possible for urgent questions and calls, we have decided to inform you by email. We apologize for the impersonal approach and thank you for your understanding.

Booking
In our reservation process, you may opt to make a short reservation instead of a definite booking. By making a reservation, we save the stay for you for 48 hours, free of charge. If your stay commences within six weeks, you can only make a reservation for 24 hours. You then have time to make a decision with the assurance that the house will be held for you. In My Belvilla, you can cancel the reservation or change it into a definite booking. If you do nothing, your reservation expires automatically in the amount of time indicated. You can make up to two reservations simultaneously.
Online:
Choose an available period on the house description page and click 'Book now'.
Your booking will be confirmed online and via e-mail.
Via telephone:
You make a reservation over the phone by calling the Customer Contact Center.
When you are searching online, only available holiday homes are displayed. Specify a month and/or length of stay of your choice in order to see the available accomodations for that period.
After you have booked online or over the phone, you will receive a confirmation online and through e-mail. This Booking confirmation tells you when you need to make the first payment. You can make a payment via My Belvilla. After your payment is received in full by Belvilla, you will receive your accomodation ticket with the address information of the holiday residence through e-mail.
After booking you will receive a booking confirmation via e-mail right away. This booking confirmation contains the costs that need to be paid and the terms that apply. After you’ve made full payment, you’ll receive your accommodation ticket. This ticket provides the accommodation’s address information, information concerning the key handover and the emergency phone number.
You will find all of the information about your booking and payment under My Belvilla. Go to “Bookings” and select the correct booking. Here you will find all data on your holiday home and the status of your payment.
As soon as you click on 'Definite booking' in step 3 of the booking process, you will receive an e-mail confirmation. Your booking number is listed on this. We advise you to print this page and to retain it. If you do not receive a confirmation from us, please contact the Customer Contact Center.
Several small adjustments, like the number of accompanying persons or pets (up to the permitted maximum), can be made easily and free of charge in My Belvilla. If the desired adjustment is not listed in My Belvilla, please contact the Customer Contact Center. You may be charged €27 for significant changes. In case you wish to adjust the period of stay or change the accommodation, cancellation costs may apply. The Customer Contact Center can inform you about these costs.
The period section on the bottom of the house description page exclusively shows prices for periods that are available.
You can always book online, even in case of a short term departure. In case of a last minute booking (departure within six weeks) your booking is confirmed in the form of a provisional application. We will then check the availability by contacting the homeowner, who will personally agree or disagree within 48 hours. Please note: A provisional application is considered a binding reservation. Cancelling before agreement of the owner can only be done according to the standard cancellation policy.
As soon as you have made full payment, you will receive the accommodation ticket for the house you have booked. The exact address of the holiday home is listed on the ticket. Due to legal restrictions, we are not allowed to provide the address before a booking is made.
It is possible to visit a holiday home in advance. Contact the Customer Contact Center, with your schedule in order to make an appointment with the home owner. You will get a confirmation of the appointment with the address information of the holiday home sent to you via e-mail.
The calendar on the accommodation page shows exactly when the holiday home can be booked. Most holiday homes can be booked for both the current and the subsequent year. In exceptional cases, a holiday home can be booked on the day of departure, provided payment is received immediately.
Belvilla offers information about the accessibility of its holiday homes as specific as possible. Down the advanced search options you can select specific features, such as an adapted toilet, broadened passages or an elevator. On the accommodation page these features are described in more detail. This way, you can judge for yourself whether a holiday home is suitable for you and your travel companions.
Our website exhibits our entire offer of holiday accommodations including full description, layout, prices and availability. Because the internet is more complete and timelier than a brochure can ever be, we no longer provide paper brochures. Should you need help finding a suitable holiday home on the website, feel free to contact us by telephone.
A baby counts as a travelling person. The maximum number of people for your accommodation is listed in the search result and on the accommodation page. This is the total number of adults and children allowed. In some cases, this number may be exceeded by 1 or 2 babies from 0 to 2 years old. If so, this is stated on the first step of the booking process. However, you cannot assume extra inventory, like a baby bed, is present. Therefore, if you exceed the number of guests with a baby up to 2 years old, you need to bring a baby bed yourself.
You can view all reservations you have made with Belvilla by clicking on "My bookings" option after signing in to "My belvilla"
If you need to change dates on your reservation you can do this directly via your reservation details page in "My Belvilla". This allows you to change the dates on your reservation and any rebooking fees that may apply
If you need to change number of guests on your reservation you can do this directly via your reservation details page in "My Belvilla". This allows you to change the no of guests your reservation,subject to property availability and any rebooking fees that may apply

Homeowner contact will be shared with guests as soon as the payment is made and the booking is confirmed.
Payment
You can pay by creditcard, PayPal or by bank transfer.
You pay a (minimum) of 30% of the total rental price plus optional cancellation insurance immediately after making your booking. The rest of the rental price must be paid six weeks before departure at the latest. If you pay in two instalments, then you will receive a reminder via e-mail one week before the second payment is due. If you are departing within six weeks, the payment must be made in one instalment. For a departure within fourteen days, the payment must be made in one instalment and via credit card.All payments via credit cards are charged immediately unless chosen to be charged later explicitly
You will find our account numbers under Contact Us.
Payments done via My Belvilla should, under normal circumstances, be processed in our system, and as such be visible in My Belvilla, within 10 minutes after payment was made. If you do not pay via My Belvilla, payment processing time depends on the bank. As a result, your payment may not be received in time, in which case your booking will be cancelled. Therefore we advise you to pay via My Belvilla. In the unlikely event that you still exceed the payment deadline, please contact the Customer Contact Center immediately. If your payment is not received, Belvilla has the right to unilaterally cancel your booking and you will be charged cancellation costs. If Belvilla unilaterally cancels your booking, you will be notified via e-mail or telephone.
The payment deadlines are stated on your booking confirmation. You will find all the information on your booking and payments in My Belvilla.
No, the rental price must be paid in advance. Upon arrival you will pay, if indicated on your booking confirmation and accomodation ticket, a deposit and the on site costs.
You will find all the information on your booking and payment status in My Belvilla. Here you can check which payments have been received and which amounts you still owe or which are on their way.
Log in to My Belvilla. Go to “My Bookings” and select the correct booking. Click under “To be paid” on “Pay now with credit card”. You are now in a secure payment system.
If you have also paid the first instalment with a credit card, you will receive an e-mail a week before the second payment is due with a link to My Belvilla for the credit card payment.
If you get a reminder even though you’ve already paid, it’s possible the payment and the notice have crossed. In that case, please ignore the notice. You can find the actual status of your payment in My Belvilla at all times. Please keep in mind the duration of the payment process. Credit card payments are normally processed, and visible in My Belvilla, within approximately 10 minutes. For bank transfers, payment processing time depends on the bank, and may take longer than usual.
If you have paid via bank transfer and your payment confirmation is not visible in My Belvilla after the usual processing time of (international) bank transfers has expired, it is likely incorrect data (such as the booking number) has been passed with the payment, as a result of which we’ve been unable to process your payment properly. If you are convinced that you’ve made payment, you can send us a valid proof of payment. Visit our contact page and choose ‘My booking/reservation or stay’ as the subject of your message. You can now add the receipt as an attachment to your message. Your receipt will normally be processed within 24 hours and must include the correct amount and bank account details, as well as a confirmation from the bank. We’ll notify you in case your receipt fails to meet these requirements. If payment is still not received within 5 days after receiving the proof of payment, the validity of your receipt will expire.
No, it is not possible to pay in multiple installments.
If for whatever reason you have paid more than stated on your booking confirmation, or a complaint, discount or rebooking caused a payment discrepancy in your favor, you need to contact the Customer Contact Center. If it appears that we indeed received too much money (Note: This only applies if the overpayment is actually received on our account!) we will make sure the overpayment is reversed within approximately one week after notification. If you provide our Contact Center department with your IBAN/BIC data, the financial department will take care of the payment.
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. Please view our Privacy Policy to find out more on how we deal with personal and technical data.
You can make pending payment for your reservation by clicking on the "Make payment" button by signing into your Belviilla account.
Directly after booking you have access to My Belvilla. This is where you make your payment. You will find a link to this page on the upper right of the website and in the e-mails regarding your booking.
Your Stay
After the full rental price has been paid, you will receive an accomodation ticket. The exact address and the coordinates of the holiday home are listed there. In My Belvilla you will find a link to Google Maps, where you can track the exact location of the holiday home, as well as the way there.
The manner in which your arrival is managed is listed on your accomodation ticket. There are two options:
1. The home owner/manager will bring the key to the accommodation and meet you on site.
2. On your accomodation ticket you will find the address of the home owner/manager where you can pick up the key.
The same applies to departure, unless you have made different agreements on site. On your accommodation ticket you may find a request to call the home owner/manager before arrival, to guarantee a smooth key transfer.
On your accomodation ticket you will find the contact information of the home owner/manager and the arrival times. Call the home owner/manager if they are not present within the listed arrival times. If that does not work, then call our emergency line. The phone number is listed on your accomodation ticket.
Because you must often pay a number of costs on site (ancillary costs on site and possible damage), you pay a security deposit as a guarantee when you arrive. When you cause damage above € 25 in or around the residence, this is usually covered by the mandatory damage insurance which is included in the rental price.
On your accommodation ticket you will find how the on-site costs are settled.
On your booking confirmation and ticket you will find when the repayment of the deposit will be done. In order to accomplish the repayment, you need to fill in your bank account number as well as your IBAN and BIC codes in My Belvilla. You will find these codes on your bank statement. Your IBAN and BIC code make sure the reposit will be paid to the correct bank account.
Arrival or departure at a different date or time is only possible after agreement with the homeowner or location manager. In some cases, you may be charged additional costs. A request to arrive or depart at a different time may be submitted to the Customer Contact Center before booking, or after booking but before receipt of the accommodation ticket. In case you have already received said ticket, and have the homeowner’s contact details, you may contact them directly and discuss other arrangements.
As tenant, you are liable for any damage caused to the property. Any damage should be reported to the homeowner or location manager immediately. Damage over €25 is often covered by the insurance that is automatically taken out with your booking, anything below that amount is on your own account. Whether the damage will be covered or not is determined by the insurance, based on the prevailing conditions. Damage resulting from reckless or negligent behavior is not covered.
When travelling through Europe with your dog or cat, you are required to carry their pet passport. This passport should at least contain proof of rabies vaccination. In addition, your pet should be provided with identification such as a subcutaneous chip or a tattoo. Both the passport and the identification can be obtained from your vet.
The presence of bed linen and bath towels varies per accommodation, and may or may not be subject to extra costs. This information can be found under ‘Costs on site’ on the accommodation page, on the booking page and also in My Belvilla after booking.
Unless indicated otherwise, you do not need to clean the accommodation. Obviously you should always leave the accommodation in a decent condition (“broom swept”). In addition, it differs per accommodation whether or not the cleaning costs are included in the rental price. This information can be found under ‘Costs on site’ on the house description page, on the booking page and also in My Belvilla after booking.
If tourist taxes are required, these are either already included in the rental price, or paid on site. The ‘Costs on site’ overview – which can be found on the accommodation page, in the booking process and in My Belvilla – will tell you which situation applies to your accommodation.
Cancellations
If you need to cancel your booking for circumstantial reasons, you can go to"Login" -> “My Bookings” → “Upcoming Bookings” → "View Booking" -> "Cancel Booking" ->, and cancel your booking. Kindly use your email id and booking number to log in.
There are costs associated with cancellation. If you have cancellation insurance with Belvilla, and the booking is cancelled for a reason covered by the insurance, you may be able to file an insurance claim for said costs. You will find the conditions of the cancellation insurance under Insurance section in FAQ’s. The cancellation conditions will be sent directly to your e-mail after booking.
If you cancel your booking, there will be a charge to cover our costs incurred in preparing for your stay. The charge increases, the closer to your arrival that you cancel.
Cancellation charges include 100% of your booking fees and cancellation right charges (1% of your total rent) along with x% of your rent basis the day of your cancellation against the arrival date.
Cancellation Cost = 100% of (Booking Fee + Cancellation Right Charges +Cancellation Insurance Fee) + (Total rent paid by the customer+damage insurance - cancellation right charges +Discount)*(x%) .
E.g : Total Paid Amount is 346 which includes Rent (311), Damage Insurance (10), Calamity (5) and booking fees (20). Assuming cancellation date is 43rd day against the arrival date then cancellation charges would be :
Solution :
Total Rent Paid = 311, Booking Fees = 20 and Damage is 10
Cancellation Right Charges = 1% of total rent = 3
Total Cancellation Cost = 100% of ( 20 + 3) + ( 311+10-3+0)*10% = 23 + 31.8 = 54.8
Please note
Cancellation right charges will not allow you to cancel free of charge
booking fees and cancellation right charges are not applicable if you book under Free cancellation campaigns
For further clarification, Please refer to the terms of cancellation on the property page or the booking voucher at the time of booking.
If you have cancellation insurance with us, and the booking is cancelled for a reason covered by the insurance, we will calculate the refund on the travel sum. If applicable to your booking, you will also be refunded your travel insurance costs. Booking fees and the premium for the cancellation insurance cannot be refunded.
In case you have booked a holiday home through a website of one of our partners, it is possible that the cancellation conditions of this partner apply. If this is the case, this will be stated at your booking.
We process cancellations during business days. If a cancellation reaches us after the end of a business day, we process the cancellation the next business day. The next business day determines the cancellation costs. ( Belvilla Terms & Conditions)
Insurance
To avoid unforeseen costs, it is always wise to take out cancellation insurance. You can choose between two types of cancellation insurance which refund cancellation costs if circumstances force you to cancel your holiday or terminate it prematurely. The exact costs are precalculated for you during the booking process. You will find the insurance conditions and an overview of the premiums under Insurance.
It is possible to take out a cancellation insurance within seven days after booking, if there is no reason for cancellation known yet. To arrange this, contact the Customer Contact Center by phone.

Coronavirus update
TRAVEL SAFELY WITH US AT YOUR SIDE
Due to the global pandemic of Covid-19 we still see changes in the regulations governing international travel have come into force. We understand very well that you have questions about your booked holiday home. Of course we would like to help you and provide clarity. Our customer service is currently flooded with questions, so answers by phone, email or social media unfortunately take longer than you are used to from us, for which we apologize.
To help you the best we can, we offer you several possibilities to change or cancel your booking yourself. Please click here and see if this might help you so you will not have to wait for our customer service colleagues.
Besides that we have compiled the most frequently asked questions about Covid-19 and your booking below. We hope this will give you more clarity. If you still have (additional) questions, please reach out to our Customer Service team. Thank you for your understanding.
We recommend that you keep abreast of the World Health Organization's guidelines and act accordingly.
For updated travel information from the European Union you can check this website or you can check the restrictions and travel advice from your respective authorities.
Updated FAQ’s
If you booked with us on or before 11 March 2020:
If you are not allowed to travel because of COVID-19 restrictions, you may cancel your trip free of charge. Please note, that quarantine after the stay and the requirement of a corona-test do not justify free cancellation.
If you booked with us on or after 12 March 2020:
Cancellation free of charge is in principle not possible. This is only different if the holiday home is not allowed to welcome you.
*What is a voucher?
A voucher is a digital credit issued by Belvilla, with which you can make a new booking.
As we have two types of vouchers with different rules we explain this further here:
There are two different types of cancellations and vouchers:
1. How do I receive my voucher?
If we have promised you the voucher, we will send it to you by email. Please check your 'unwanted email'-box (SPAM) in case you haven't received it yet. At the moment we are very busy, but we will make sure that you receive the voucher as soon as possible.
2. I have already been promised a voucher and my booking has already been cancelled, when will I receive this voucher?
If we have already cancelled your booking as a result of earlier telephone contact and have promised you a voucher, we would like to ask for your patience. At the moment we are busy sending these vouchers and we will make sure you will receive your voucher as soon as possible.
3. I would like to make a new booking, but I haven't received my voucher yet.
If you would like to make a new booking and still did not receive your voucher that is not a problem. We can help you make the new booking and adjust the price with the amount of your voucher even if you didn’t receive the voucher yet. To do so, please call Customer Service.
4. How do I use the voucher?
When you make a booking on our website, we ask you to use your unique voucher code on the payment page. When you enter the voucher code, the amount will automatically be deducted from the voucher total, depending on the booking you make. If your booking amount is lower than the value of the voucher, the remaining balance is still available on your voucher and can be used for future bookings. However, if the booking amount is higher than the value of the voucher, the remaining balance must be paid during the payment process.
Note you must add any discount or promo codes prior to the payment page. The option to add your voucher will be available on the payment page under a separate field.
5. What is the amount of the voucher?
The amount of the voucher is the total amount already paid for your current booking including local charges and pro-rata insurance costs (if applicable). Any deposit already paid to Belvilla will be refunded in cash (due to the extra workload at the moment this process can take up to 8 weeks).
6. Why does Belvilla use vouchers?
We realise that - under normal circumstances - in the event of a cancellation by Belvilla, we would refund the amount already paid in cash. However, the current situation is so exceptional that we believe it is justified to make an exception. We are counting on your kind understanding for this.
7. What if I don’t want a voucher but my money back?
We are working on a way you can ask for your refund in ‘My Belvilla’. This will be the fastest option to collect the money and deactivate your voucher.
In a situation when we need to cancel your booking because of the government/authorities restrictions that are in place, a so-called force majeure situation. In this case, you have/will receive(d) a Corona voucher that is valid for 3 years to book a new holiday. If you do not use this voucher, you can request a refund 6 months from the voucher issue date.
7A. Can I get a cash refund if I am not able to use my voucher?
If you have a corona voucher, you may request a cash refund 6 months after the voucher issue date. If you have a Belvilla voucher, you may request a cash refund 12 months after the voucher issue date. In case, there is any balance on your voucher and you do not ask for a refund, the balance will automatically be refunded to you after the voucher expiry date.
8. How long is my voucher valid for?
We kindly request you to check in ‘My Belvilla’ for the actual dates and value
9. Is this voucher transferable to another person?
Unfortunately, the Corona voucher can only be used by the main booker and is not transferable due to SGR requirements. The Belvilla voucher is freely transferable. Look after your voucher as Belvilla cannot be held liable for any loss, theft or misuse of the voucher.
10. What should I do if I am on my holiday and the situation changes, e.g. a lockdown?
If you are staying in an area where the travel warning changes (e.g. lockdown), please contact us via the 24/7 SOS (number listed on your travel voucher) and the local offices. Until then, stay safe and follow the advice of the relevant authorities.
11. I am travelling within 3 days from now and I did not receive any message from Belvilla. What should I do?
If we didn’t reach out to you and you didn’t reach out to us, we assume that you will go on your well-deserved holiday. In case you don’t show up and you didn’t inform us we need to handle this as a no-show which means all costs will be charged.
If you decide you don’t want to go on holiday, we ask you kindly to contact us immediately to see how we can help you to minimize the cancellation fee.
12. What are the advantages of the voucher?
Your voucher is valid for use with Belvilla for 3 years from the voucher issue date. Vouchers that were already issued in the beginning of the pandemic with a validity of 1 year are extended to 3 years (we will send you a new voucher per email). This means that you can even make a booking in 2023 for all dates and holiday homes available on the Belvilla website.
13. Can I use this voucher to book a summer and/or winter holiday?
Yes of course you can! This voucher is valid for ALL holidays that can be booked through Belvilla. Check our wide range of holiday homes on our website.
14. What if the newly booked holiday home is cheaper than the amount on my voucher?
The amount on this voucher that has not been used for the new booking will remain valid on the voucher for later use before the expiration date of the voucher (3 years after the voucher was issued). Vouchers that were already issued at the beginning of the pandemic with a validity of 1 year are extended to 3 years. And if you do not use the voucher, you can request a refund.
15. What if the newly booked holiday home costs more than the amount on my voucher?
In case you have made a new booking that costs more than the amount on your voucher, you will be asked to pay the difference.
16. Can I use the voucher for multiple bookings?
Yes, it is possible to use the voucher for multiple bookings. The amount on the voucher that has not been used for the new booking will remain valid on the voucher for later use before the expiration date of the voucher. Please check your ‘My Belvilla’ account to see the remaining amount on your voucher
17. What if I make a new booking with the voucher and there are restrictions?
Please note that if you use your voucher, some countries may still have travel restrictions on your chosen arrival date. Please make sure to check this before you travel. In case you have booked a new holiday home with the voucher, and it, unfortunately, has to be cancelled again due to a changed travel restriction, you will receive the paid amount in the form of a new voucher. Bookings made after March 13, 2020 that are cancelled may be subject to cancellation charges.
We will always follow the rules of the relevant authorities regarding social distancing and other restrictions that are in place. We would recommend that you check before travelling for any relevant travel restrictions and reach out to us if these restrictions restrain your way of reaching the holiday home or your stay at the holiday home. We will help you with a solution. If any social restrictions at your destination apply, like restaurants, bars, museums, etc. being closed, we cannot cancel your booking free of charge, as this does not affect your stay in our holiday home.
18. I have made a future booking with Belvilla, but I am worried that I will not be able to travel because of the Coronavirus, what should I do?
We advise you to stay informed of the measures and travel advice of your own government and local authorities. If you encounter any restrictions prohibiting your stay, please contact us. Please do not refrain from paying your booking as this will cancel your booking automatically with cancellation costs. Your safety comes first! We keep a close eye on all our bookings according to closed country borders.
In case there are no restrictions in place for your booked holiday home, we don’t cancel your booking and we hope you will enjoy your well deserved holiday with us. If you would like to cancel your booking yourself, normal cancellation policies are in place and we advise you to contact us. If you do not contact us and do not show up on the booked date, we are very sorry but we can’t return the money paid.
19. Why am I informed by email that my booking will be cancelled and not by phone?
We are sorry that we do not have the capacity to inform you personally at this time.
In order to remain available as much as possible for urgent questions and calls, we have decided to inform you by email. We apologize for the impersonal approach and thank you for your understanding.
20. How can I keep my cancelled booking confirmation?
You have received the cancelled booking contract by email. Please keep this email together with your voucher and your original proof of payment in your archive on your computer for future reference.
If you use 'My Belvilla', the booking details will also be saved in your 'My Belvilla' account.
How can I make a proof of payment?
You will receive a payment confirmation from us. In addition, you can:
- Log in to your online banking and go to your payment to Belvilla.
- Make a print screen of the payment using the 'PrtScn' button.
- Save this file on your computer so that you can consult it at a later stage.

As per February 1st, 2021 we are no longer a member of SGR.
We have decided to cancel our membership with SGR as SGR has decided to charge us an amount of 10 Euros per booked holiday home as of 1 February 2021. Although we respect this decision, none of the other vacation rental companies is a member of SGR, so the price increase makes us less competitive.
In the past years we have done several researches on the added value of SGR on the booking behaviour of our clients, whereby the impact was limited. In addition to that, the number of guest bookings through our brands mostly grew outside of the Netherlands, where the possible added value of SGR is unknown.
As confidence to travel increases and business recovers, we have decided to currently stop issuing vouchers.
1. What happens to my SGR-voucher now that you are no longer an SGR-member?
- There is no change for you. We have an agreement on this with SGR and the SGR coverance stays in place under its normal terms and conditions. For further information we kindly refer you to the FAQ that applies for vouchers issued before February 1st 2021.
2. I made a booking with you before February 1, 2021 and by that time it was still covered by SGR. How is my booking impacted by the decision of Belvilla to leave SGR?
- Nothing has changed for you. Your booking is still covered by SGR. For more information about the SGR guarantee we refer you to www.sgr.nl .
3. What will change for me as a guest, now that you are no longer an SGR/ANVR member?
- If you have already made a booking then nothing changes. New bookings (made as of 1 February 2021) are no longer covered by the SGR guarantee scheme.
4. What if I need to cancel my booking after February 1st 2021, due to Covid restrictions?
If you booked with us on or before 11 March 2020:
If you are not allowed to travel because of COVID-19 restrictions, you may cancel your trip free of charge. We will pay back what you are entitled to. Please note, that quarantine after stay and the requirement of a corona-test do not justify free cancellation.
If you booked with us on or after 12 March 2020:
Cancellation free of charge is in principle not possible. This is only different if the holiday home is not allowed to welcome you.
5. What if I want to cancel my booking in the future due to personal reasons?
- The normal cancellation conditions will apply and we pay back what you are entitled to.
6. What should I do if I am on my holiday and the situation changes, e.g. a lockdown?
If you are staying in an area where the travel warning changes (e.g. lockdown), please contact us via the 24/7 SOS (number listed on your travel voucher) and the local offices. Until then, stay safe and follow the advice of the relevant authorities.

If you would like to cancel your booking yourself, normal cancellation policies are in place and we advise you to contact us. If you do not contact us and do not show up on the booked date, we are very sorry but we can’t return the money paid.

Average Rating
1. What is Average rating?
In 2021, we introduced the concept of average rating for our homes listed on the Belvilla website that do not have their own guest reviews score. It was done to give guests a proxy for the actual guest rating to compare, so they don't miss out on a fantastic vacation home because it doesn't have a rating.
2. How is this rating calculated?
The average rating of Belvilla Homes is calculated on the basis of average actual guest ratings of nearby homes in the same region.
3. How is the average rating related to the actual guest rating?
The average rating of homes in a region signals the average quality of new Belvilla homes that pass through the same process, checking on the quality of infrastructure and revenue-generating ability. They are on-boarded by the same set of people, have the same owner and customer support teams responding to queries and issues, and the same booking modification and refund policies etc.
4. Which properties does this system apply to?
This is shown on homes that do not have their own guest ratings, once a home gets its own guest ratings,then those are shown to guests on the front-end
5. Is this system replacing guest reviews?
No, this is to help potential guests so that they don't miss out on our best vacation homes just because it doesn't have a rating.
6. How frequently are these ratings updated?
These ratings are updated on a rolling basis and not instantly.
