Let’s face it, even an affordable vacation represents a big investment in your family’s time and money. Unfortunately, every year vacations are interrupted by unforeseen events. There might be a death in the family or an illness. There is even a chance Mother Nature has other plans for your vacation week. There’s only one way to protect your vacation investment, and that is by purchasing a travel insurance policy.
When you book your vacation with Williamson Realty Vacations, we’ll give you the option of purchasing travel insurance. This insurance represents a small investment that offers big protection for your family. If you have questions about our travel insurance policy, our helpful and friendly reservationists can answer any questions you may have about the coverage. Here is a quick review of some of the basic things you need to know.
Three Common Questions Answered
How much does it cost?
Travel insurance premiums are calculated as a percentage of the value of your vacation rental lease. Because of this, no two policies are the same price. The percentage is only a fraction of your total contract. However, given all the things travel insurance covers, it is a great value.
When should I purchase travel insurance?
There are certain restrictions regarding the purchase date of travel insurance. For example, you cannot buy travel insurance once a storm or other event is known. The best advice is to purchase your travel insurance at the time you book your vacation.
Who provides the coverage?
Williamson Realty Vacations does not administer travel insurance. All of the policies we offer are underwritten and administered by General Global Assistance.

Of course, the main question everyone wants to know is – what exactly does travel insurance cover? While each policy is different, below you’ll find the highlights of what travel insurance typically covers.
