Review from an existing and current client:
I cannot recommend Michelle and Shell Belle Properties HIGHLY enough. As a property owner, finding someone you can truly trust and rely on is everything, and Michelle has gone above and beyond for me more times than I can count.
She is the rare property manager who is both a sharp, highly capable professional and a genuine person to work with. She handles the logistics of my property with total autonomy. For example, she recently stepped in to resolve a complex utility and plumbing issue from start to finish without me needing to get involved at all.
After having several frustrating experiences with previous management companies, finding Michelle was a complete turnaround. The level of follow-through, transparency, and detail-oriented attention she brings to the table is night and day compared to what I’ve dealt with in the past. It is a huge relief to finally have a go-to person who is proactive and consistently hits the mark. If you want a management team that actually looks out for your property and interests, Michelle is the best in the business.

I wanted to find a management company that treated my home like their own and would find a good balance of occupancy, rental discretion, and home design that suits my real taste. Shell Belle not only helped me fins a strategy to increase occupancy, but also helped me revamp the space beautifully. Easy to work with management. Highly recommend.

Michelle and the rest of the team at Shell Belle were nothing but professionals. She’s responsive, proactive, and handles everything quickly and professionally. We’ve had total peace of mind knowing she’s on top of every detail. I’d recommend Shell Belle without hesitation to anyone looking for a truly reliable and outstanding property manager.

We have stayed in over a dozen short term rentals, with several being in New Orleans. This house has been far and away, the most comfortable with the nicest amenities. The pride that our hosts have in this property is evident. They obviously asked themselves what guests would need to be comfortable and to feel “at home” and then attended to those details. We are grateful for their thoughtfulness and for their hospitality.

We just stayed at a Shell Belle property over Christmas and this was the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had. Crisp white linens and duvets like a hotel, luxury amenities and an awesome locals guide so we didn’t have to roll the dice with google reviews/yelp. So much thought was put into it and communication was seamless! We’ll be back.

Our experience with Shell Belle Properties began with an introduction meeting to discuss a proposal for staging and management of a 30+ rental property. Instead of returning with just the requested proposal, they took the extra step to research the exact location and discover that we had the opportunity to apply for an STR license, something to which we'd been completely oblivious.
From that point forward the process couldn't have been any easier nor the results of the finished location more stunning. Shell Belle handled 100% of the paperwork / guided us through the application process and what was necessary from our end. Upon receiving approval they did a magnificent job staging our location from scratch and, as confirmed by guest after guest, continue their incredible work through the management process.
We couldn't have been luckier to discover this company via what was originally just supposed to be a simple fact-finding / proposal generating meeting. There's plenty of other management companies out there, but they won't come close to the personalized service you'll receive from Shell Belle Properties.

Above and beyond is an understatement to describe this home and host. I have stayed in tons of Airbnb’s and have never had such an amazing host. First off, the home is stunning. I have been misplaced while my home is being fixed and Michelle’s home made the stress of life go away when I walked in and was excited every time I stepped foot back into this home. The kitchen is stunning 🤩 if you love to cook this home has everything you need. Huge living space. TV’s in every room. A jacuzzi tub and bidet in master bath. The back porch and backyard is amazing. I was concerned about my service dogs getting under the house and within days(which she never had to do) had the fence repaired and lattice put up so I didn’t have to worry. Everything above what I needed or expected. This New Orleans property management company exceeded my expectations. She’s very kind and a terrific host and I’m so sad to leave. I 100% recommend and would stay again! Book this Airbnb you won’t regret it!!!

This was an incredible month-long stay! The home is full of character—true NOLA charm with a rustic touch. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and it came with all the extra touches you could ever need. The neighborhood has a great up-and-coming vibe, and we were able to walk to several fantastic spots for food and cocktails. The house itself was comfortable, welcoming, and had such great energy. The property management team was extremely responsive and accommodating. If I could give it six stars, I absolutely would!

"Shelle Belle takes care of the cleaning/flips for my Airbnb. There hasn't been 1 complaint. My reviews speak for themselves by consistently complimenting the cleanliness, welcoming feel upon check-in. Shell Belle is my eyes and ears and is anticipatory of any/all concerns. I like that I don't pay any deep clean fees anymore during the summer because Shell Belle does rotating deep clean projects year-round inclusive of the normal cleaning cost."

"I used Shell Belle from start to finish. They designed my Airbnb, did my City of New Orleans NSTR applications, created my listings and is running the show. My home is booked and we're all making money. Super responsive, takes great care of our guests and is continuously bringing up new ideas to make our listing stand out and create value to our guests."
Ian A.
"Shell Belle goes above and beyond for our guests. The local recommendation guide and house guide they created for my Airbnb is top quality. The welcome gifts are a special touch that impress guests upon arrival and I like the one-stop-shop aspect. I can reach out to Shell Belle and they have a quick answer, I don't have to wait hours for them to get in contact with different teams."
Kristin F.
"Shell Belle manages my mid-term rental. She has exceeded my expectations pertaining to communication and execution. I had a big box, corporate property manager prior. I'm very happy not being 1 of 1,000's of properties at a big company. Shell Belle Property Management is reachable, we have a great working relationship."
- Ryan P.
"Shell Belle Properties actually lives here. They're on it. No guest complaints, just outstanding reviews. I can finally rest easy and make my passive income. I finally have that sense of security that my short term rental management company genuinely cares about the guest experience and keeping my home in good condition."
Ross H.
"Shell Belle is easy to reach, quick response time to any question or need I have. I don't feel like a number anymore. Great partnership."
