Business Insurance for Accommodation Providers is a practical InsuranceZN guide for Australian readers comparing insurance or reviewing an existing policy.
Accommodation providers should review property, public liability, guest injury, theft and interruption.
Quick answer
Do not compare insurance only by price. Read the policy wording, understand exclusions and keep useful records. This guide focuses on business risks, liability, property, cyber exposure and claim evidence.
Checklist
- Confirm business activities, turnover, staff, contractors and locations.
- Compare public liability, professional indemnity, property, stock and cyber cover.
- Check exclusions for online work, subcontractors, imported products and vehicles.
- Keep contracts, invoices, asset records and incident notes.
- Review cover when the business changes services, premises or revenue.
Questions to ask
- What exactly is covered and excluded?
- What limits, excesses, waiting periods or conditions apply?
- What evidence would be needed for a claim?
- Does the policy match your current situation?
- Can unclear terms be explained in writing?
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include choosing the cheapest option without reading exclusions, not updating details, missing deadlines, failing to keep evidence and assuming all policies work the same way.
