What type of policy?
It's tricky to predict the kind of holiday home insurance cover you may need. Your place in the sun is just like your own home – you may want to consider insuring both the building and your contents.
If you're planning on renting out your holiday home or then you will be pleased to know A Place in the Sun Insurance’s second property insurance includes public liability and loss of rent as standard following an insured claim.
English-speaking team
Staff are English-speakers with all documentation in English, so you can be sure your holiday home insurance is easy to understand and comprehensively designed around the needs of overseas property owners.
On-the-ground assessors
If you need to make a claim, you want things to happen fast. A Place in the Sun Insurance partners with bilingual, local loss adjustors based close to your holiday home. That means they can get the claim process rolling aiming for a faster payout with less hassle.
Unoccupied and lettings cover
Whether you’re in the enviable position of continuous lets, or your property is left unoccupied for a while, second property cover can help protect your assets. If you decide to let your holiday home out (for example, as an Airbnb property), A Place in the Sun Insurance can also cover you for things such as accidental damage, or theft by tenants as an added optional cover.
Public liability
If someone injures themselves while staying in your property, they could make a personal injury compensation claim against you. Public liability cover means that the cost of an injury claim or damage to personal property claim can be covered.
