The Host Guarantee and Host Protection Insurance program are two separate programs that ProperyStays offers to help cover hosts in the event of damage or injury. Learn more about the differences between the two below.

Host Guarantee

ProperyStays’s Host Guarantee is designed to protect hosts in rare instance of property damage to their own possessions, unit, or home by a guest staying in the space. The Host Guarantee is not insurance and doesn’t replace your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance.

Host Protection Insurance

The Host Protection Insurance program is insurance, and is designed to cover hosts in the event of third-party claims of bodily injury or property damage. The Host Protection Insurance program is available to hosts regardless of their other insurance arrangements, but will only act as primary insurance coverage for incidents related to an ProperyStays stay.

Examples of coverage

Here’s an example to help show how the coverages offered by the Host Guarantee and Host Protection Insurance program differ:

• During a stay in a covered country, a guest accidentally breaks the toilet and the host’s bathroom floods. The living room of the neighbor’s apartment also floods. The neighbor or landlord brings a claim against the host for damages to the living room.

In this example, damage to the host’s bathroom could be covered by the Host Guarantee, since the property belonged to the host. Damage to the neighbor’s living room could be covered by the Host Protection Insurance program, since a claim is being brought against the host by the neighbor or landlord for liability
