Your guide to Cheap Holidays

Saving money often comes down to timing, location and choosing what matters most to you, so you can make any type of holiday a cheap one.

Cheap holidays can work at any time of year – the key is understanding why prices are lower and what you might trade off in return. That could mean travelling outside peak school dates, choosing cooler temperatures, flying midweek or being flexible on destination.

Some seasons offer better value because there’s lower demand, while others work because prices drop in specific regions. Below, we break it down by season, with the best months to travel, typical trade‑offs and destinations that often deliver the strongest value.

A simple way to choose

If saving money is the priority, shoulder seasons like spring and autumn usually offer the best value, with fewer crowds and lower prices. If you need to travel in peak periods, choosing the right destination and staying flexible on details can still make a cheap holiday work without cutting corners where it matters.

Cheap holidays that are actually worth it

Cheap holidays don’t have to mean cutting corners. We don’t believe you need to sacrifice quality to find a trip that’s affordable for you. Our low prices come from smart choices, not hidden trade-offs. 

When it comes to cheap holidays, we focus on genuinely affordable holidays that balance low prices with the things that matter most, like clear inclusions and transparent pricing. By cutting any unnecessary extras, the result is great‑value holidays you can trust – no hidden fees, no guesswork, just straightforward savings on breaks that make sense.

Cheap holiday FAQs

Yes, if the price reflects smart trade‑offs rather than hidden cuts. Cheap holidays often cost less due to travel dates, flight times or simpler hotels. We show what’s included and what’s not, so you can spot genuine value rather than just a low headline price.

Holidays are usually cheaper because of lower demand, off‑peak travel, less central locations or because there are fewer extras included. These factors reduce the price without automatically reducing quality. The key is choosing which compromises you are happy to make.

There isn’t really a single ‘best’ time to book a cheap holiday. Booking early often gives you more choice at lower prices, especially for popular dates. Or, waiting can sometimes unlock last‑minute savings, but availability may be limited. The best option depends on how fixed your dates are and how flexible you can be on destination and travel times. If you’re completely flexible, you should always be able to find a good deal.

Always check what’s included – luggage, transfers, food and drink, resort charges. We show you this all upfront, so you don’t need to go digging. But the cheapest deals will probably mean a few extras have been dropped – that’s why we can lower the price. So, just make sure you’re aware of any trade-offs and that you’re happy before you book. 

If you want a bigger bag or airport transfers, it’s always worth doing a comparison check against our other deals. If these factors are important to you, paying slightly more might unlock better value for you. A cheap headline price only works if the essentials you need are already covered.

They can be, but flexibility varies. If a holiday is cheaper because it’s a last-minute deal, it will have stricter cancellation or change terms. So, we recommend checking our terms and conditions carefully before booking, so you understand what flexibility you do or don’t have.

You should know, if you’re looking to pay with a deposit and spread the cost of your trip with a flexible payment plan, the availability of these will depend on how close to departure you’re booking. The further in advance you book, the more payment options will be open to you. If you’re booking less than 31 days before departing, we’ll need the full payment upfront.

We’re Sundeals – a straightforward holiday company, focused on good value without the noise. We strip things back to what matters, and we’re always clear about what’s included and what’s not.

That means:

  • No unnecessary extras added by default

  • Clear pricing and simple options

  • Honest information so you can compare properly

You still get a great holiday – just without paying for things you might not use.

Sundeals bookings are covered by ATOL protection to give you clear, UK-backed protection from the moment you book.

We sell traditional package holidays. Your holiday can include everything, or you can leave off things like checked bags or transfers to keep the price lower. Either way, your holiday still counts as a package – and that means it’s protected.

ATOL protection means:

  • Your money is protected if the travel company stops trading

  • You will not be left out of pocket if something goes wrong

  • If you are already abroad, arrangements will be made to get you home

You will receive an ATOL Certificate when you book, which confirms what is protected and who to contact if there is a problem. You can also read more about ATOL protection on the Civil Aviation Authority website.

Booking a cheap holiday with us keeps things straightforward. We focus on real value, showing clear prices upfront and explaining what’s included, what’s not and where the savings come from.

What you can expect with Sundeals:

  • Clear, honest pricing with no hidden extras

  • No pressure to upgrade unless it genuinely adds value

  • Practical options that work for real budgets


Cheap holidays can involve trade-offs. Our job is to make those clear, so you can decide with confidence and book knowing exactly what you’re getting.
