About Michelle Madrid
Michelle Madrid is a travel and lifestyle journal featuring distinctive hotels, memorable destinations, elevated wellness and the people behind exceptional experiences around the world.
The website provides editorial, informational and inspirational content. It is not a travel-booking agency, medical provider, financial adviser or legal adviser unless a particular service is expressly identified otherwise.

Readers should verify important information directly with the applicable business before making travel plans, reservations or purchases.
Reviews and Recommendations
Reviews and recommendations reflect honest opinions and experiences. Individual experiences may vary.
A positive feature or recommendation does not guarantee that another visitor will have the same experience. Michelle Madrid does not warrant the quality, availability, safety, suitability or performance of any hotel, restaurant, destination, product, service or experience mentioned on the website.
Editorial coverage is not a guarantee of endorsement, partnership or future coverage.
Hosted Stays, Gifts and Sponsored Content
Michelle Madrid may occasionally receive complimentary hotel stays, meals, products, services, event admission, travel assistance or other benefits in connection with editorial coverage.
The website may also publish sponsored content or participate in paid brand partnerships.

All opinions expressed remain those of the writer unless expressly stated otherwise.
Affiliate Links
Some pages may contain affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a reservation or purchase, Michelle Madrid may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate relationships do not determine every hotel, product, destination or service selected for editorial coverage.
Where appropriate, affiliate relationships will be disclosed near the relevant links or content.
Prices, availability, cancellation policies and transaction terms are controlled by the third-party seller or travel provider, not Michelle Madrid.
No Travel Guarantee
Travel inherently involves uncertainty and risk. Conditions may be affected by weather, transportation disruptions, illness, political events, natural disasters, closures, labor disputes, crime, government restrictions and other circumstances outside our control.
Michelle Madrid does not guarantee:
The availability of flights, accommodations or reservations
Entry into any destination or venue
The safety of a destination
The accuracy of visa, passport or entry information
The performance of a hotel, airline, tour operator or other provider
Refunds, reimbursements or compensation from a third party
That a featured experience will remain unchanged
