[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, surprised by how many people on this thread are clueless to the risk of booking during hurricane season. I NEVER book in advance to a hurricane zone for August to early November. I'm even leery of July now. Yes, it is completely unfair and ridiculous but it's really hard to get your money back even if you buy the travel insurance. Even with insurance they sometimes only give you for the days it was a mandatory evacuation.

Example: You have booked a Saturday to Saturday rental. There is clearly a storm coming there that is going to hit, say Monday. But the evacuation order only covers Monday and Tuesday. They will still charge you for Saturday and Sunday, even though it is crazy to travel there then. And after even if the place is a mess they will often not cover you for Weds on.

It's absolutely absurd. Don't book in advance during hurricane season. I only go to the beach in the south august to early november if it is a raltive's house OR if it's like Thursday or Friday and I am looking to book for the Saturday coming up in like a day or two.[/quote]

While I agree, the VRBO owner at this point has nothing to give OP. No roads lead to Sanibel, people are using boats and helicopters to get to the mainland.

Why should OP be forced to pay for ‘nothing’. This isn’t OP being upset that it’s going to rain a little or something like that.[/quote]
