Vacation Rental Insurance for Hosts and Guests

Damage Insurance and Travel Cancellation Insurance

Rental Damage Protection for Vacation Hosts Offering More Flexibility

Protecting hosts against accidental property damages by guest that may occur during booked stay. As the vacation rental industry evolves, damage protection insurance has become a standard option guests appreciate—so now, we offer damage insurance. As a Shore Summer Rentals’ hosts, you can now offer your guests Damage Protection Policies for each booking with Rental Guardian via SSRNJ.com. Damage Insurance is becoming more popular with guests because it avoids large upfront deposits—great for budget-conscious travelers. Order Damage Insurance.

As a host, you now have more options:

1. Guest-Paid Damage Protection Insurance - Covers Our Hosts
>> How it works
>> Order Damage Insurance.

2. Refundable Security Deposit

  • You collect a security deposit and return it after the stay, if no damage occurs.
    If you withhold any part of the security deposit, New Jersey law requires you to:
  • Provide a detailed written explanation within 30 days
  • Include photos, receipts, or documentation
  • Refund the full amount within 30 days if no issues arise, or risk listing suspension without refund.
     

The choice is yours. Each option offers protection; it just depends on your comfort level and what works best for you and your guest.
