🚨 Damage protection – peace of mind included 🚨

To offer a seamless experience, accidental damage protection is included as a fixed nightly fee.

It replaces the traditional security deposit and covers accidental damages up to $50,000 for eligible stays.* Very few properties offer this type of protection!

Result:
✔️ no security deposit required
✔️ simple and structured handling in case of incidents
✔️ a smooth, worry-free experience
Because luxury also means peace of mind. 😇

While this protection generally replaces a deposit, we reserve the right to request an additional deposit in certain specific situations, assessed on a case-by-case basis. This remains rare and preventive.
*Conditions and exclusions apply. Details available upon request.
