Wister Insurance® announces updated coverage built specifically for vacation rental managers and Airbnb co-hosts, addressing critical gaps left by traditional insurance products.
BOZEMAN, Mont., Feb. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Wister Insurance® announced the launch of its updated insurance offering designed exclusively for vacation rental managers and Airbnb co-hosts. This offering addressing coverage gaps that standard business insurance products often leave behind in the short-term rental industry.
As the short-term rental market continues to mature, Wister helps operators and co-hosts protect their businesses, portfolios, and reputations by providing a specialized insurance solution.
"Vacation rental managers and co-hosts face a very different risk profile than owners, yet most insurance products are still built with owners in mind," said a spokesperson for Wister. "We built Wister to solve that problem directly."
Wister's updated policy framework reflects years of experience in insuring short-term rental operations and supporting professional managers across diverse markets. Coverage is designed to scale with growing portfolios and adapt to the operational realities of today's vacation rental businesses, including:
- Commercial General Liability protection tailored for managers and co-hosts
- Professional Liability (E&O) coverage for management services
- Simplified onboarding and policy management
- Support from a team experienced in the vacation rental industry
- Underwritten by Lloyd's of London, AM Best Rated A+
Unlike traditional insurance providers, Wister focuses solely on the needs of professional operators who manage short-term rental properties on behalf of others.
While Wister operates as a focused, modern insurance brand, it is backed by a team with deep roots in the vacation rental insurance space. After previously building and operating Proper Insurance®, the team behind Wister is now dedicating its full attention to delivering a more streamlined, manager-first insurance experience.
"Wister represents everything we've learned, and everything we believe vacation rental managers deserve from their insurance partner." The spokesperson added.
