Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses.

During your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the rental manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
