Owning a holiday home in the sunny Algarve, the garden island of Madeira or the beautiful mainland should be a joy that you'll want to share with friends, and maybe even let out to holidaymakers. Unfortunately, owning a holiday home, villa or apartment in Portugal is never worry-free, but there are steps you can take to minimise that worry, and the most important is to insure it comprehensively.
Insurance is a complicated purchase in a foreign country, particularly for a holiday home, but it's an area where you can't afford to take risks. You need cover that states exactly what you're covered for, and what the exclusions are. Cover that's both comprehensive and straightforward.

Our policies are written in plain English, so you don't need to worry about unfamiliar insurance exclusions or language barriers that occur when dealing with foreign insurers. Should you need to claim, you'll speak to our UK-based experts.
You are covered regardless of whether your holiday home is used by yourself, let to friends and family or rented as a commercial holiday let.
