The Ultimate Peace of Mind for Vacation Rental Guests
StayMarquis guests are protected by the Waivo® damage protection program (please refer to your Booking Agreement for more information about coverage). The program offers the industry’s broadest protection. It’s damage protection done right.
$5,000, $10,000, and $20,000 in Damage Protection
Although rare, accidental damage from guests does happen. Traditionally, this was managed via a security deposit or vacation rental damage insurance purchased by the guest. Both are cumbersome and often have big limitations in protection.
With the damage protection, accidental damage from a guest is covered unless it’s specifically excluded such as, but not limited to, normal wear and tear, mechanical breakdown, or odor.
Relax and Enjoy Your Stay
It’s vacation time, so enjoy it with peace of mind knowing that if an accident happens and damage occurs, you are protected under Waivo.
