Travel Insurance

We highly recommend travel insurance for every villa holiday. Plans can change unexpectedly, and the right cover helps protect the money you have paid and supports you if something goes wrong while you are away.

What travel insurance can cover

• Trip cancellation or interruption, for example because of illness
• Medical emergencies
• Travel delays and missed connections
• Lost, delayed or damaged baggage

Every policy is different, so please check what is included before you buy.

Villa payment and cancellation policies

Each villa has its own payment and cancellation policy, shown under Booking Policies on the villa’s page. Deposits and payments may not be refundable after certain dates, so we recommend arranging insurance soon after you book: some benefits only apply if the policy is bought within a set time of your first payment.

Travelling in hurricane season

The Atlantic hurricane season runs from 1 June to 30 November. If you are travelling in these months, look for a policy that covers weather-related cancellations and delays, and buy it early: policies usually do not cover a storm that had already been named when you bought your cover.

Choosing a provider

Many reputable companies offer travel insurance. Choose a policy that meets your needs and is available in your country of residence. If available where you live, Travel Guard is a well-known provider you may wish to consider.

Bona Fide Jamaica does not sell insurance. Please read the policy wording carefully and ask the insurer if you have any questions about your cover.
