Affiliate disclosure

A booking site such as Booking.com, Expedia or Kiwi.com runs an affiliate programme. Once the programme approves a website, links from that website carry a reference number. If you follow one of those links and complete a booking, the booking site pays the website a commission out of its own revenue. You pay the price the booking site shows you. Using the link does not change it.

Booking.com and Expedia links on the guide both run through CJ Affiliate, the network that tracks the click and pays the commission. Kiwi.com flight links run through Travelpayouts, which does the same for Kiwi.com.

Expedia links cover more than places to stay: tours and activities, flight + hotel packages and car hire. Each one says what it opens, for example "Browse things to do on Praslin on Expedia". Where a property is listed on both Booking.com and Expedia, its page offers both, with "Compare on Expedia" next to the Booking.com button, so you can check both before you book.

Affiliate links appear as booking buttons, for example "Check availability on Booking.com" or "Compare on Expedia", and each one has a note beside it saying it is an affiliate link. The buttons pass through a praslinladigue.com address before sending you on to the booking site, so the guide can count how often each button is used. That count is not linked to you. The privacy policy explains what is recorded.

• A place to stay is listed whether or not it has an affiliate link.
• Descriptions, "who it suits" notes and the places listed for couples, families and other travellers are based on sourced facts, not on commission.
• Nobody pays to appear on the guide, and there is no sponsored content. If that ever changes, the content will be clearly labelled as paid.

Praslin & La Digue is independent. It is not owned by, or in partnership with, Booking.com, Expedia, Kiwi.com or any property it describes, beyond taking part in the affiliate programmes listed on this page.
