Be careful before you book

There were no blinds in the dining area as shown in the photos, leaving no privacy, especially with neighbours so close. A power outage left us without electricity, hot water, or any way to cook for our 3 young children. The outage was expected to last 3–4 days, forcing us to leave 3 nights early as the property was uninhabitable.Despite this being a natural disaster, Belle Property claimed living without power is “acceptable”. A partial refund was offered, we are still significantly out of pock

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience was impacted by the extreme circumstances surrounding the natural disaster that affected the Port Stephens region during your stay. To address your concerns, we’d like to provide some context and clarification. The power outage, caused by the severe weather, was an unforeseen event that affected the entire region of Port Stephens. Unfortunately, during these times, utilities such as electricity and WiFi are beyond our control. We worked tirelessly to accommodate all of our guests under these challenging circumstances, prioritizing support wherever possible. Regarding the power outage, while it was originally estimated to last 3–4 days, power to the property was restored within 24 hours. Despite this, we understand that you made the decision to leave early. In recognition of the disruption caused, the owners went above and beyond by offering a refund for the two nights you were unable to use the property, even though our policy for natural disasters typically does not include refunds. We acknowledge your concern about the dining area blinds. We strive to ensure that all photos and property details are as accurate as possible, the photos displayed online are accurate in displaying that there are sheer curtains in the dining area. We are sorry for the inconvenience you experienced during this rare and difficult situation.
