About Jugroop.com
- When you book an accommodation, airport transfer or car rental, Jugroop.com provides and is responsible for the website and chosen amenities – but not your experience itself.
- We work with companies that provide local support services (e.g. Customer Support or account management). They don’t:
- Control or manage our website or business
- Have any legal or contractual relationship with you
- Provide accommodation and services mentioned in our website
- Represent us, or enter into contracts, or accept legal documents in our name
- Operate as our ‘process or service agents’
Our website
- We give information in our website and we can’t guarantee that everything is accurate – but with our website, we take reasonable care and act with professional diligence. Unless we’ve failed to do so or have been negligent, we can’t be held responsible for any errors, interruptions, or missing bits of information. Of course, we’ll do everything we can to correct/fix them as soon as we become aware.
- We’re not a party to the terms with you.
- To make a booking, make sure all your info (including payment and contact details) is correct and up to date, or you might find you can’t access your Travel Experience(s). You’re responsible for anything that happens with your Account, so please don’t let anyone else use it.
- Unless otherwise indicated, you must be at least 18 to use the website.
Our values
- You will:
- Abide by our T&C
- Comply with all applicable laws
- Cooperate with any anti-fraud/anti-money laundering checks we need to carry out
- Not use our website to cause a nuisance or make fake bookings
- Use the website for its intended purpose
- Not cause any nuisance or damage, and not behave inappropriately to anyone involve from the guest house staff to any 3rd party like taxi drivers
Your experience with our website
- We’re always working to improve our customers’ experience with Jugroop beach house. So, sometimes, we show different people different designs, phrasings, products, etc., to find out how they react. As a result, you might not come across some services or conditions when you visit our website.
Prices
- When you make a booking, you agree to pay the cost of the booking made, including any charges and taxes that may apply.
- Some of the prices may have been rounded to the nearest whole number. The price you pay will be based on the original, ‘non-rounded’ price (although the actual difference will be tiny anyway).
- Obvious errors and obvious misprints are not binding. For example, if you book for a service and it is mistakenly offered for an unreasonable cost, your booking may be cancelled, and we’ll refund anything you’ve paid. We will remove obvious pricing errors as soon as we become aware.
Payment
- For some products/services, we will require an upfront payment and/or payment in advance
- If we organise your payment, we (or, in some cases, our affiliate) will be responsible for managing it and ensuring the completion of your transaction with us. In this case, your payment constitutes the final settlement of the ‘due and payable’ price.
- If we charge you, this will usually be in person at the start of your stay, but it could also be, for example, that your payment is charged when you book or taken when you check out of the guest house. This depends on the Service Provider’s upfront payment policy, as communicated to you in the booking process.
- If we require an upfront payment, we may ask you before receiving a booking confirmation when you make your booking, and it may be non-refundable. So, before you book, please check the Service Provider’s upfront payments policy (available during the booking process), which we don’t influence and aren’t responsible for. This does not affect your rights if you have any problems with your booking from our website.
- If your payment method is denominated in a currency different from the payment currency (Mauritian rupees), your bank or payment method provider (or their payment services providers) may charge you additional fees. We will not know the amount charged/will be charged.
- If you know of or suspect any fraudulent behaviour or unauthorised use of your Payment Method, please contact your payment provider as soon as possible.
- If the currency selected on the website is not an accepted payment in your country, we may accept payment in a different currency.
- Pay In Your Own Currency. We (and/or one of our affiliates) may provide you with the ability to pay for your booking in your own currency (your ‘home currency’), based on your location and/or account setting – and in respect of this service only; we do this as principal, rather than as an agent. Where you use this service, you agree to the following terms, which are separate to your contract with the Service Provider related to your booking. We are not involved in the provision of the Pay In Your Own Currency service and is not party to the following terms, which do not give you any extra rights under your contract with us. If you choose to pay in Mauritian rupees, the following terms don’t apply.
- For the avoidance of doubt, when you use Pay In Your Own Currency, we are simply enabling you to make payment in your own currency while we ensure that we are paid in the local currency. As such, you are not making payment in one currency and receiving another currency.
- If you choose to use Pay In Your Own Currency, all fees and charges from us for use of the Pay In Your Own Currency service either (a) are included in the exchange rate or (b) appear as a separate line item (included in the total price displayed where applicable) during the checkout process.
- The exchange rate is determined when the total payment (or estimated total payment) is offered by us after checking the exchange rate. Where applicable, the total price displayed will be the amount charged by us to you. Certain fees and charges that are part of the total price displayed will, however, be collected directly by us.
- If you cancel a reservation, we may not refund you the exact same amount we initially charged you (inclusive of any applicable fees in relation to the Pay in Your Own Currency Service).
Policies
- When you make a booking, you accept the applicable policies as displayed in the booking process.
Your booking will be confirmed to you by email. If for any reason you didn’t receive the confirmation email within a reasonable time, it is imperative that you make every effort to contact us as soon as possible. Else, we might not be able to confirm your reservation which means that your booking was voided (not fully completed).
- If you cancel a booking or don’t show up, any cancellation/no-show fee and any refund will depend on our cancellation/no-show policy.
- Some bookings can’t be cancelled for free.
- If you book with us by paying in advance (including all price components and/or a damage deposit if applicable), we may cancel the booking without notice if we can’t collect the balance on the specified date. It’s your responsibility to make sure the payment goes ahead on time (that your bank, debit card or credit card details are correct and that there’s enough money available in your account).
- If you think you’re not going to arrive on time, please contact us and tell us when we can expect you. It’s your responsibility to ensure you’re on time, and if you aren’t, we are not responsible for any associated costs (e.g. the cancellation of your booking, or any fees we may charge).

Changes made by us
- If we need to change your booking (e.g. if we can’t provide the car), we’ll tell you as soon as we can.
