Airbnb’s AirCover might sound reassuring—but is it enough to truly protect your short-term rental? In this Hosting Hotline episode, we break down a YouTube comment that sparked an important conversation about insurance: what Airbnb does (and doesn’t) cover, why it’s not technically a policy, and the major risks hosts take when relying solely on platforms like Airbnb for protection.

We’ll walk through:

  • The common (and dangerous) misconception about Airbnb’s million-dollar liability promise
  • Why basic homeowner’s insurance may drop you if they find out you’re hosting guests
  • What coverage you actually need to operate a short-term rental safely
  • Why diversifying your booking platforms is just as critical as having proper insurance
  • The importance of reviewing your policy annually with a broker

If you’re not sure whether you’re truly protected, this episode is a must-listen. We want every host to operate with peace of mind—and avoid learning these lessons the hard way.

Resources Mentioned:

  • Proper Insurance – A leading provider of short-term rental insurance designed to replace a homeowner’s or landlord policy with comprehensive coverage for vacation rentals.
  • Steadily – Fast, affordable landlord insurance that also offers policies tailored specifically for short-term and vacation rental hosts. Get a quote in minutes.
