For a Morocco renter, the most practical risks are winter freeze damage and hail. Neither one cares whether you own or rent, and only your own policy pays for your belongings.

Coverage at a glance
| Coverage | What it pays for | Typical choice |
|---|---|---|
| Personal property | Furniture, clothing, electronics, and other belongings after a covered loss, at home or away | Set to the replacement value of what you own |
| Personal liability | Injury or property damage you cause to others, plus legal defense | $100,000 minimum; $300,000+ common |

What your policy can cover
If a covered loss forces you out of your Morocco rental, additional living expenses helps pay for a hotel or short-term rental and extra meals while repairs are made.
A typical Morocco tenant policy combines personal property (furniture, electronics, clothing, bikes), personal liability, loss of use, and medical payments to others. Replacement cost on belongings is usually worth the small extra premium.
Personal liability is often the most valuable piece. If a guest slips on your stairs or your overflowing tub damages the unit below, liability coverage helps pay damages and legal defense.
