How can I get support with an on-site emergency?
Unexpected issues can happen during a guest's stay. Knowing how to respond quickly and when to seek help ensures guest safety and satisfaction. Holidu's support team is available 7 days a week to assist with urgent situations.
When you're on-site
Stay calm and maintain a helpful, approachable attitude. Address the issue promptly and professionally.
- Listen to your guest and understand the problem fully
- Take immediate action if the issue affects guest safety or comfort
- Document what happened and steps you've taken to resolve it
- Keep communication clear and transparent throughout the process
When you're not on-site
Arrange for someone trustworthy to be available to support your guests on your behalf. This could be a co-host, property manager, or local contact who can respond to urgent requests quickly.
Priority emergency situations
Health and safety concerns
Serious issues like mould, gas leaks, electrical hazards, or broken appliances require immediate attention. Act fast to resolve these problems, as they may entitle guests to compensation and significantly impact their stay experience.
House rules violations
If guests violate house rules, such as hosting unauthorized parties or exceeding occupancy limits:
- Politely remind them of your house rules
- Ask for immediate compliance in a calm, professional manner
- Document the violation and your communication
- If the behavior continues, contact Holidu support for assistance
Illegal activity or serious safety threats
If you witness illegal activity or face a serious safety threat, contact local authorities first. This is your top priority. Notify the relevant booking platform after ensuring immediate safety.
