In the fast-paced world of vacation rentals, delivering exceptional guest experiences and maintaining business stability requires more than just great properties and customer service—it requires preparation, foresight, and the right partners by your side. That’s why offering travel protection is no longer a “nice-to-have” but a business essential.

At Generali Global Assistance, we’ve been supporting property managers and their guests for over 30 years, guided by our C.A.R.E. values: Caring, Available, Reliable, and Easy to Work With. These principles are at the heart of everything we do. Whether helping property managers safeguard revenue, giving guests peace of mind, or strengthening the industry overall, we’re committed to bringing real value to every partner we work with.

Why Travel Protection Matters: A Triple Win for Everyone

Our tailored travel protection solutions are designed with everyone’s best interest in mind, creating what we call the triple win:

• For Property Managers – By reducing the financial impact of cancellations and interruptions, travel protection helps property managers recover revenue that might otherwise be lost. It keeps bookings secure and mitigates operational risk, especially in peak seasons or unpredictable circumstances.
• For Guests – Guests gain confidence knowing they have coverage in place. Whether faced with a sudden illness, flight delay, severe weather, or family emergency, travel protection may help protect their vacation investment, making them more likely to book—and rebook—with confidence.
• For Homeowners – Travel protection removes the need for issuing good faith refunds in the event of guest cancellations while helping to secure the homeowner’s rental income and providing peace of mind.

Weather Preparedness: Protecting What Matters Most

One of the most significant yet often overlooked, benefits of partnering with Generali Global Assistance is how seriously we take weather preparedness. We recognize that weather events don’t just affect guest travel plans—they can directly impact your business, your operations, and your bottom line.

That’s why we’ve developed comprehensive tools and resources to help our partners prepare, respond, and recover quickly and efficiently.

Access to Our Vacation Rental Toolbox

When you partner with us, you’re not just getting access to travel protection—you’re also getting access to our exclusive Vacation Rental Toolbox, a growing suite of resources tailored specifically for vacation rental property managers. This toolbox is designed to help you be proactive, not reactive, in the face of challenges like severe weather, operational risks, or emergency situations.

Hurricane and Winter Storm Preparedness Kits (And More!)

Weather events like hurricanes and winter storms can disrupt travel and damage properties. But with proper preparation, you can minimize the impact and ensure both your team and your guests are safe and informed.

As part of our commitment to you, we provide:

• Hurricane Preparedness Kit and Winter Storm Preparedness Kit – Complete with checklists, communication templates, guest guidance, and tips for securing your property before, during, and after a storm.
• Coming Soon: Wildfire Preparedness Kit – Because climate patterns continue to evolve, we’re expanding our resources to include a wildfire kit, giving property managers in affected areas the tools to stay ahead of potential risks and help protect their guests and properties.
