Bed
& Breakfasts:
Just like each bed
& breakfast is distinctive, the insurance coverage they
require is equally unique. As a result, NTIS worked with
various insurance companies to see that coverages can be
tailored to handle this unique risk.
Various coverages are required. The following are the key
coverages to be considered:
Property–
coverage can be written on guaranteed replacement cost
in order to make certain the property will be returned
to its original splendor, should a loss occur. Coverage
can also be written for the contents, irreplaceable items
and business income.
General
Liability– coverage extends to the business,
its guest and resident relatives. The coverage takes into
account the additional risks due to serving breakfast
and afternoon tea, liquor and recreation areas such as
a pool.
Careful consideration should be taken when insuring your
bed & breakfast; not only because it’s your business,
but it’s also your home.
