Able to dispute payment made through PayPal with AMEX?

Hi guys,

I have a case where for some vacation rental, the person wants me to advance a % of the 1 month rent through PayPal.
One of the first thing I noticed was that PayPal does not offer protection for anything related to real estate, so I am out of luck.

If I pay with the AMEX platinum and something goes wrong, could I dispute the charges with AMEX or is that also a lost cause because I used a service such as PayPal?
What are your thoughts around this?

I think if it was a good, it would be ok because PayPal seems to cover them. Since rents are not covered, I am not sure what to think.
