Terms of Service

Plain-language terms for using My Island Compass. By using the site you agree to them.

Last updated: October 8, 2026

The service we provide

My Island Compass is a Caribbean travel-planning service. We create personalised, day-by-day itinerary suggestions for 32 Caribbean islands based on the preferences you give us, along with island guides, a packing Trip Kit, partner recommendations and a souvenir shop.

We are a planning service, not a travel agent or tour operator. We don't sell flights, accommodation or tours ourselves. Any booking you make with a hotel, tour operator, restaurant or retailer is a contract between you and that business, under their terms. Opening hours, prices and availability change, so please confirm important details directly with providers before you travel.

Pricing

  • Free — one personalised itinerary per email address.
  • Pay-Per-Trip — $4.99 — a one-time payment to unlock one additional full itinerary.
  • Island Hopper Annual — $37 per year — unlimited itineraries for 12 months, renewing automatically each year until cancelled.
  • Premium Caribbean Experience — $149 — a one-time purchase of our full premium itinerary package.

All prices are in US dollars and are charged securely through Stripe. Souvenir prices are shown in the shop at checkout.

Refunds and cancellations

  • Digital itineraries (Pay-Per-Trip and Premium) are delivered immediately. If your itinerary failed to generate or was not delivered, contact us within 14 days and we will fix it or refund you in full.
  • Island Hopper Annual can be cancelled at any time by emailing us; cancellation stops the next renewal and you keep access until the end of the year you paid for. If you contact us within 14 days of a renewal charge and haven't generated an itinerary since, we will refund that renewal.
  • Souvenirs — if an item arrives damaged or incorrect, contact us within 30 days of delivery for a replacement or refund.
  • Partner bookings (tours, hotels, restaurants, gear) are refunded or cancelled under that partner's own policy, not ours.

To request a refund or cancel, email [email protected].

Our commercial relationships

My Island Compass earns a commission when a traveller books with a listed partner. Partner placement is paid for, is labelled as such, and is never presented as an independent editorial ranking. Ratings and reviews are not for sale.

Monetised links on our site are marked as sponsored and accompanied by a short disclosure. Booking through them never costs you more.

Using the site responsibly

Please don't misuse the site, attempt to disrupt it, or copy our content for commercial use without permission. Itineraries are for your personal travel planning.

Limitation of liability

Our itineraries are suggestions made in good faith. Travel involves weather, transport and other factors outside our control, and we are not responsible for the services provided by third-party businesses. To the extent the law allows, our liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms and will change the date at the top of this page when we do. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle your data, or contact us with any questions.
