Your current coverage might not be enough
Standard home insurance doesn’t cover commercial purposes
Most insurers don’t provide cover for Airbnb, Booking.com, or paying guests in general. In fact, having paying guests stay can invalidate your policy altogether.
The platform you use might not offer the best solution
Most of the major booking platforms don’t provide adequate protection (if at all) for your property. This leaves one of your most valuable assets, your home, at risk.
Without the right insurance, you could face a hefty bill
When renting your home out to strangers online accidents will happen. That’s why you need to be prepared with the right type of cover so you’re not left out of pocket.

Specialist Airbnb insurance for hosts and homeowners
Our HOSTCOVER acts as additional specialist cover that sits on top of your current standard home insurance, providing you with the relevant protection for guest-related damages.
So you can rest easy at night and host with complete peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Our HOSTCOVER covers any damage caused by a guest, including accidental & malicious damage.
Yes. It is important that your main home insurer is aware that you are having paying guests in the home as this could compromise their cover and stop you from claiming for non-related guest damages. If your main insurer doesn’t allow this, then we do also work as a traditional broker and can source main underlying home insurance for you with a provider who allows this type of use. Find out more about our home insurance.
If you pay monthly or annually, no. We will cover every booking within that period of cover. If you opt for our pay-per-stay option, we will link up to your Airbnb/booking.com calendar (through adding your ical link to your account) and get notified automatically of each stay. Alternatively, some of our customers like to drop us an email with the dates each time and we will add the stays in manually for you. We’re very flexible, so whatever suits you best!
Yes. Our HOSTCOVER only operates in the UK but we do have our partner company SUPERHOG, who offers a similar globally accessible guest damage protection cover which also includes their guest verification service. If you would like to know more please visit superhog.com.
