Cheap All Inclusive Holidays

Now, it’s important to remember that Cheap isn’t always Cheerful! But now that we’ve got that out of the way, here is our database of every All-Inclusive Holiday in the world that costs under £400 per person. A word of caution though, check the hotel’s facilties and read (recent) reviews so that you know exactly what you are signing up for 

We’ve all been there: you’ve spent three hours scrolling through “bargain” holidays only to find out the price doesn’t include a suitcase, a transfer, or even a glass of water on the flight. It’s enough to make you want to stay in bed with a cuppa instead.

The game has changed. With the cost of living still being a bit of a pest, finding a Cheap All-Inclusive isn’t just about the lowest headline price—it’s about “Smart Value.” It’s about making sure your wallet stays in the hotel safe from the moment you land. Here is the nitty-gritty on how to bag a 2026/2027 deal that actually saves you money.

The “When” Factor: Early Bird or Last-Minute?

This is the age-old debate, but for 2026, the data is in. According to industry experts at the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority), over 4.5 million of us booked our summer sun in January alone.

  • The Early Bird (10-12 months ahead): This is the “Family Strategy.” If you need a specific resort with a kids’ club and a waterpark during the school holidays, book now. You’ll snag the Free Child Places and low deposits (often just £60pp), allowing you to spread the cost.

  • The Last-Minute (Under 8 weeks): This is the “Adults’ Gambit.” If you’re flexible on whether you end up in Antalya or Alicante, waiting until the final two months can slash prices by 30%. Tour operators hate empty seats, and as we move into the 2027 season, they’d rather sell a room for half-price than let it sit empty.

Destination Selection: Where is the Best Bang for Your Buck?

Not all “All-Inclusives” are created equal. If you want your pound to do some heavy lifting, you need to head where the competition is fierce.

  • Turkey: Still the undisputed heavyweight champion of value. The quality of the food and the “Ultra” packages here consistently beat anything in the Med for the same price.

  • Egypt & Tunisia: For 2026/2027, these are the “Winter Sun” heroes. With flight prices dropping and luxury resorts opening at a rapid rate, you can get 5-star treatment for 3-star prices.

  • Bulgaria: The Black Sea coast is the “hidden gem” for budget-conscious families who want a massive beach without the “Euro” price tag.

The “Alihoco” Hack: Comparison is King

Don’t waste your Sunday afternoon with twenty browser tabs open. I always go straight to www.allinclusive.co.uk and use their Alihoco tool. Most sites mix in “Half Board” or “Self-Catering” just to look cheap, but Alihoco is a “True All-In” filter.

How to win at searching:

  1. Be Airport-Agnostic: Don’t just search for your local hub. Tick Manchester, Liverpool, and Leeds Bradford (or your local equivalent). Often, switching airports can save a family of four over £400.

  2. The “Mid-Week” Move: Flying on a Tuesday or Wednesday is almost always cheaper than a Saturday. Use the flexible date grid to see where the price “cliffs” are.

  3. Check the Nitty-Gritty: Alihoco pulls live data from Jet2, TUI, and EasyJet Holidays. As one travel industry authority recently noted, “2026 is the year of operational agility—the best deals go to those who compare regional hubs side-by-side.”


Money-Saving “Pro Tips” Once You’re Booked

The saving doesn’t stop at the checkout. Here is how to keep your holiday “True” All-Inclusive:

  • Pack the “Resort Kit”: Bring your own insulated cup. It keeps your lager cold and your coffee hot by the pool, and it stops you from having to trek back to the bar every five minutes for a tiny plastic cup.

  • Avoid the “Resort Tax”: Sunscreen, basic meds, and snorkelling gear are marked up by 300% in hotel shops. Buy them at Boots before you go.

  • The “Special Occasion” Email: If it’s a birthday or anniversary, email the hotel directly 48 hours before you arrive. You’d be amazed how often a “Standard Room” turns into a “Sea View Suite” with a bottle of bubbly just because you asked nicely.


Final Cheap Holiday FAQ

Q: Is it cheaper to DIY or book a package? A: For All-Inclusive, Packages almost always win. Between the ATOL protection and the bulk-buying power of the big operators, you rarely save money by booking the flight and hotel separately.

Q: Does “All-Inclusive” mean I can’t leave the hotel? A: Of course you can! But use your hotel as a “base.” Eat a big breakfast and grab snacks to take with you so you don’t get fleeced by high prices in tourist hotspots.

Q: What is the cheapest month to travel? A: For 2026, May, June, and September are the “Value Windows.” You get the heat without the “School Holiday” premium.
