For anyone looking for the cheapest all-inclusive hotel in Europe, TravelSupermarket has done the hard work for us.

Out of their top 10 list, TravelSupermarket has declared Hotel Best San Diego as the cheapest all-inclusive.

Hotel San Diego offers prices from £672 per person for a seven-night stay with flights departing from Manchester in July 2025.

For the all-inclusive option, the hotel offers buffet style breakfast, lunch and dinner. Drinks are served throughout the day as are snacks.

It’s a hotel worth the trip if you love the beach, as it’s within walking distance of not one, not two, but three beaches: Levante Beach, Capellans Beach, and Larga Beach.

As for activities, there’s a games room, gym and entertainment programs with sports activities, aqua-gym, water polo and ping-pong.

The second cheapest all-inclusive is Festival Village in Salou, with all-inclusive prices beginning at £604pp for 7 nights in August.

As well as all-inclusive food and drink, there’s outdoor pool to enjoy, a kids’ pool and a playground.

Travel expert Steph Marinkovic at TravelSupermarket loves Salou as a budget-friendly travel destination.

She says it’s a great place to “enjoy volleyball on Llevant Beach” or “cool off at PortAventura World”.

PortAventura World is a huge theme park with 40 rides as well as a water park next door, Caribe Aquatic Park, that has flumes, waterfalls and relaxing pools.

Across from the park is Ferrari Land, which has car-themed rides and simulators; it’s a great spot for fans of F1.

Ferrari Land is also home to Europe’s tallest and fastest roller coaster, Red Force. Be warned, it’s a scary one as it reaches speeds of 112 mph and its maximum height is 367 ft.

Don’t feel like you have to stay in Salou, though. You’ll find Barcelona is just 90 minutes away for a perfect day trip to see the stunning Sagrada Familia and Güell Park.

The next location that offers the cheapest all-inclusive is Calas de Majorca.

The resort town on the island of Majorca is a great place for a holiday if you love beautiful beaches like Cala Domingos. It’s also a great destination for exploration.

Up the road is Cala Millor, which is perfect for watersports including sailing, snorkelling, scuba diving, windsurfing, kayaking and surfing.

For driving fans, there are buggy tours all over the island, and the heritage Drach Caves, where you’ll discover four natural underground lakes, are 20 minutes away.

Caló des Moro ('small bay'), also Cala de Sa Comuna, is a bay in the southeast of the Spanish Balearic island of Mallorca. It is located on the coast of the municipality of SantanyÃ, southwest of the village of Cala Llombards, towards Cap de Ses Salines, the South Cape Mallorcas.

The third resort town, Alanya, is great for anyone wanting to venture further than Spain.

Steph Marinkovic said the Turkish resort offers “incredible value” and what Brits always want to hear—it has “12 hours of daily sunshine in August”.

The Kleopatra Beach stretches for over a mile meaning it’s likely to never be too crowded to find a sun-lounging space.

For fans of sightseeing, there’s a chance to see the medieval castle, or take boat trips from the marina.
