If you opt to purchase the insurance, it will be paid in full at the time of booking. Should you decide not to purchase the insurance, the cost will be removed from your reservation upon request. This coverage protects against disruptions caused by mandatory evacuations and provides coverage in the event of an emergency illness or death that may prevent you or your family from traveling. Please note: that no refunds will be issued for a hurricane evacuation.

·       Travel Insurance can be added up to 30 days before your arrival. Please note: If travel insurance is not purchased at the time of booking, your policy will only cover incidents occurring 24 hours after purchase. For example, pre-existing conditions or a named hurricane reported prior to the purchase of travel insurance will not be covered.

·       Given the significant investment in your vacation, we strongly encourage you to purchase this coverage for your peace of mind. A brochure detailing the benefits, exclusions, and limitations of the insurance will be provided with your reservation confirmation.
