Named Storm Coverage for Coastal Inns
Table of Contents

For bed & breakfasts and Inns in coastal areas, named storms represent a significant property exposure. CBIZ Named Storm Coverage is designed to complement an underlying property policy by providing coverage for wind-related damage arising from named storm events.

CBIZ Innkeepers Insurance 

At CBIZ, we offer protection for inns, bed and breakfasts, and boutique hotels in coastal areas and hurricane zones.

Our core offering is a package insurance policy that combines:

  • General liability
  • Property coverage

Our Solution: Coverage Built for Named Storms & Wind Damage 

This supplemental property policy provides coverage for wind-related damage arising from named storm events. Designed to complement our package policy, it is available for eligible coastal properties when purchased in conjunction with an underlying property policy that excludes named storm wind coverage.

  • Controlled Exposure: Written for properties at least one mile from the coastline
  • Property Profile: Insured values up to $5 million per location, focused on small to mid-sized properties
  • Deductible Structure: Percentage-based storm deductibles, typically 2% to 5% depending on location
  • Data-Driven Pricing: Guided by advanced catastrophe modeling, not generic rates
  • Annual Coverage: Issued as a one-year policy
  • Selective Eligibility: Certain properties are not eligible, such as mobile homes and certain structural risks
