During this process, guests will choose between a non-refundable damage waiver, which is similar to purchasing insurance for the duration of the stay, or a refundable security deposit of $1000, which functions like a hotel-style hold. Damage waiver pricing varies by property and is non refundable. Security deposits are not meant to be an additional charge and are fully refundable after departure provided there are no damages, missing items, incidental charges, or house rule violations.
