Conditions Générales

Last updated: September 2026

Thank you for visiting Cheap Maldives (the “Website”). These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) govern your use of the Website. Please also read our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. The Website is operated by Cheap Maldives (“we”, “our”, or “us”). You may contact us at cheapmaldives@proton.me.

By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website. We may update these Terms from time to time by posting a revised version on this page. The “Last updated” date will change when we do. Continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

1. What we are (and are not)

Cheap Maldives is an informational website that publishes practical guidance for budget-conscious travellers planning trips to the Maldives. Content may include island guides, approximate costs, transport tips, accommodation ideas, and related travel information.

We are not a travel agency, tour operator, airline, hotel, ferry operator, insurance provider, or licensed travel adviser. We do not sell packages, book trips on your behalf, or enter into contracts with suppliers for your travel. Nothing on the Website is professional legal, immigration, medical, or insurance advice.

2. Nature of travel content

Information on the Website is provided for general guidance only. Prices, ferry schedules, taxes (including green tax and similar fees), availability, local rules, visa requirements, and other travel details can change without notice. Always verify current information with official sources, carriers, guesthouses, hotels, and other providers before you book or travel.

You are responsible for your own trip decisions, including itinerary, budget, visas, travel insurance, health precautions, and compliance with local laws and customs in the Maldives (for example dress codes and alcohol rules on inhabited islands).

3. Eligibility

The Website is intended for a general audience. If you are under the age of 16 (or the digital-consent age in your country), you should only use the Website with a parent or guardian’s guidance. You must not misuse the contact form or submit false information.

4. Acceptable use

You agree to use the Website lawfully and not to:

• attempt to disrupt, damage, scrape at scale, or gain unauthorised access to the Website or related systems;
• use the Website to send spam, malware, or abusive messages;
• misrepresent your identity when contacting us; or
• use our content in a way that infringes our intellectual property rights (see below).

We may restrict or block access where we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated.

5. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise stated, the text, images, graphics, layout, logos, and other materials on the Website are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may view and share links to our pages for personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, republish, sell, or systematically scrape substantial parts of the Website without our prior written permission.

Linking to our public pages is generally welcome. Framing our pages, impersonating Cheap Maldives, or presenting our content as your own is not permitted.

6. Third-party links, bookings, and affiliates

The Website may include links to third-party websites and services, such as booking platforms, hotels, guesthouses, transport providers, maps, or other travel resources. Those sites are operated by third parties. We do not control their content, availability, prices, or policies, and a link does not mean we endorse them.

If you book or purchase anything through a third party, your contract is solely with that third party. Any disputes about bookings, cancellations, refunds, or service quality must be resolved with them.

We may earn a commission or other benefit from some links or recommendations (affiliate relationships). This does not change the price you pay the third party. We aim to keep recommendations honest and useful, but you should still compare options yourself.

7. Contact form and communications

If you contact us (for example via the contact form or email), you agree to provide accurate information and to use those channels for genuine enquiries, feedback, or partnership requests. We are under no obligation to reply to every message. How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.

8. Changes to the Website

We may update, correct, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website or its content at any time without prior notice. We do not guarantee that the Website will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free.

9. Disclaimer

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE WEBSITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT TRAVEL INFORMATION ON THE WEBSITE IS CURRENT, COMPLETE, OR SUITABLE FOR YOUR SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR TRAVEL-RELATED COSTS (INCLUDING BOOKINGS, FLIGHTS, ACCOMMODATION, OR CANCELLED PLANS), ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF—OR RELIANCE ON—THE WEBSITE OR ITS CONTENT.

WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED POUNDS STERLING (£100), OR THE MINIMUM AMOUNT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW IF HIGHER. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, OR ANY OTHER LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

11. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your misuse of the Website, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party rights, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

12. Privacy

Our collection and use of personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy. By using the Website, you also acknowledge that policy.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. We encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve any concern informally. Subject to any mandatory consumer protections that apply in your country of residence, the courts of England and Wales shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Website.

14. General

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding use of the Website and supersede prior understandings on that subject. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
