Picture yourself by the pool. It’s 28C and you’re sipping your second ice-cold beer – or was it your third? No worries, it’s all paid for anyway. As you wonder what's for dinner (a meal you won't have to prepare yourself, by the way), you congratulate yourself quietly: what a good decision it was to go all-inclusive.

If you like the sound of that, you’re not alone. All-inclusive is more popular than ever, and it doesn't have to blow your budget – if you know where to go. So, we’ve crunched the numbers at TravelSupermarket HQ to reveal the top cheapest all-inclusive destinations for summer 2024.

*All prices quoted correct as January 4, 2024. Please note prices can fluctuate daily and may appear differently on provider site for this reason. Prices based on two adults sharing. Deals are subject to the partners' T&Cs.

1. Alanya, Turkey

Turkey’s Turquoise Coast is hard to resist come summer if you’re looking for holiday heat, with temperatures soaring to 30C and beyond. As for where to go, Alanya has some irresistible deals.

A true jewel of the Mediterranean, expect glistening beaches that stretch out for miles (pretty Kleopatra Beach is one of the best – named after the Egyptian queen who is said to have swum here), an imposing 13th-century castle and a hubbub of lively shops, restaurants and bars around the harbour.

Venture into the wider Antalya region and you’ll find plenty of yacht-filled marinas and boutique shopping in Lara Beach, and a trove of ancient Greek ruins in Side, Perge and Olympos. If hitting the green is more your thing, Belek, about a 30-minute drive from the airport, is the region’s golfing hub.

2. Hammamet, Tunisia

Tunisia is making its way onto travellers’ radars for an affordable all-inclusive getaway, and it’s a great option if you’re keen to try something a little different in 2024.

For those after a side of history with their beach break, Hammamet ticks all the holiday boxes. Under an hour's drive from the capital, Tunis, Hammamet sits on the Mediterranean coast, close to the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage. Spend your mornings exploring the town’s medieval medina before soaking up the blissful Mediterranean sunshine from the white sands of Hammamet Beach, where you’ll find a variety of watersports, too.

While package holidays to Tunisia are generally cheap, avoid August if you can – this is the hottest month of the year and coincides with school break so prices across the board tend to be higher.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Hammamet from £398pp. Flights departing June 19.

3. Marrakech, Morocco

An all-inclusive holiday to Marrakech might defy your expectations. A city of colour and chaos, you’re more likely to find luxury riads in the snaking streets of the medina than sprawling resorts. Instead, you’ll find your all-inclusive getaway in Palmeraie, an oasis of a neighbourhood about 20 minutes from the city centre.

That’s not to say you’ll miss experiencing the vibrant Red City if you stay outside the centre – many resorts offer free shuttle services to the medina for the best of both worlds. Once there, you can dive right into the throng – whether that’s getting your haggle on in the busy souks, marvelling at magnificent palaces or stumbling upon unexpected calm in the city’s gardens – then can retreat back to your resort for a cocktail by the pool.

4. Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife 

Tenerife is classic all-inclusive holiday territory. Holidaymakers tend to flock to the south coast resorts of Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas, but head for the north coast and you’ll discover more authentic Tenerife, with equal sun, sea and sand on your doorstep. Enter Puerto de la Cruz.

Small yet lively, the beach town has kept the charm of its former fishing village days while adapting to the tourist scene with lively restaurants and bars popping up around the harbour. The striking black-sand beaches are the show-stopper here, though there’s plenty beyond the sea to keep all ages entertained, including Lago Martiánez – a complex of saltwater swimming pools designed by César Manrique and the Loro Parque zoo.

Head inland and the towering Mount Teide offers fantastic views. Make a day of it and hike to the top or enjoy the ride on the cable car. Alternatively, you’re just a 30-minute drive away from Tenerife’s charismatic capital, Santa Cruz.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Puerto de la Cruz from £535pp. Flights departing May 7.

5. Bourgas Area, Bulgaria

Bulgaria has long been known for its affordable prices and in 2024, you can expect more of the same – especially if you go all-inclusive in the Bourgas area’s Black Sea resorts. At Sunny Beach (which frequently features in the Post Office’s Holiday Money Report as a great-value destination), you’ll find a long and lovely sandy beach, watersports including banana boats and parasailing, and plenty of places to party the night away. To the north, Golden Sands is another popular pick as is Sozopol in the south.

And while you might be tempted to stay resort-side on an all-inclusive holiday, it’s worth leaving your sun-lounger for a day trip or two. Historic Nessebar, protected by UNESCO for its trove of ancient Greek and Byzantine architecture, is an easy day trip from Sunny Beach. Or, organise a 4x4 tour to explore Bulgaria’s beautiful mountains that back the bay.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Sunny Beach from £462pp. Flights departing July 6.

6. Costa Dorada, Spain

Costa Dorada is classic Spain. Barcelona is here for a start, and you’ll also find miles of golden beaches, tons of tapas joints, and some of the country’s best wineries (cava is the specialty).

You’ll have a good range of options for great-value all-inclusive breaks, too. Chilled Cambrils, lively Sitges and lovely Calafell are all great choices, as are Salou and La Pineda. Base yourself at either if you’re travelling with the family: PortAventura World, the home of Ferrari Land as well as a theme park and water park, is less than ten minutes’ drive from both resorts.

If you fancy exploring beyond the sand, a coastal path spans for 6.5km (4 miles) from Pilons to Cape Salou, taking in secluded beaches and craggy coves along the way.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to the Costa Dorada from £498pp. Flights departing June 8.

7. Costa Brava, Spain 

Spain’s sunny Costa Brava is always a good bet for an all-inclusive break. Besides the cheap prices, its wealth of long, Blue Flag beaches and the reliable weather make it a firm favourite for Brits – from May through to September you’re pretty much guaranteed a warm Mediterranean climate and plenty of sunshine.

But there’s more to the Costa Brava than sun, sea and sand; you’ll find exciting cities – medieval Girona is crammed with museums, churches, restaurants and bars; mouth-watering Catalan seafood; and some of the wildest coastline in Spain.

Popular places to stay along the Costa Brava include Lloret de Mar, Tossa de Mar, Cadaques and Blanes.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to the Costa Brava from £485pp. Flights departing May 22.

8. Marmaris, Turkey

If you want plenty of choice on your all-inclusive Turkish getaway, coastal Marmaris is a hard one to beat.

Located in the heart of the Turkish Riviera in the Dalaman region, the city has a big range of hotels and resorts, both along the waterfront and within its maze of streets, as well as a huge beach that reaches right around to neighbouring resort, Icmeler, about 10km (6.2 miles) away.

For kids, there’s a handful of waterparks and fun-filled activities like go-karting and mini-golf, while adults may prefer days out further afield. Take a sightseeing boat ride to Dalyan’s ancient rock tombs or a day trip to Olu Deniz’s famed Blue Lagoon (approximately two hours drive). You can even take a ferry over to the Greek island of Rhodes (bring your passport). 

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Marmaris from £433pp. Flights departing June 24.

9. Costa Blanca, Spain

Spain’s sparkling White Coast is a classic summer destination for more than one reason. Sun-drenched beaches lapped by the Med, laidback resorts perfect for families, legendary nightlife, shopping, restaurants and even a little luxury – holidays here have got the lot.

For great all-inclusive deals in Costa Blanca, it has to be Benidorm in 2024. With two long beaches and well-established resorts ranging from the wallet-friendly to the utterly opulent, you won’t want for choice in this package holiday mecca.

The region’s other popular resorts include Alicante and Calpe, although if you’re after a budget deal outside Benidorm, you may be better off choosing a self-catering stay.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to the Costa Blanca from £451pp. Flights departing May 29.

10. Majorca, Balearic Islands

Great-value all-inclusive deals and good weather come standard in Majorca – and there’s plenty of choice if you’re just looking for a pool to flop next to for a week. As for picking up a bargain, if you’re able to travel outside of the school holidays, May and late September see the best deals. Travel during this shoulder season and you’ll also be able to avoid usual summer crowds.

Not sure where to stay? It can be a tough decision: Majorca has as much variety in its towns as it does its hotels. Magaluf favours the party crowd, while Puerto Pollensa and Alcudia are great for families. Cala d’Or and Cala Millor are great for low-key holidays or, to really get off the beaten track, try one of these quiet towns in Majorca.

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Majorca from £447pp. Flights departing June 4.

11. Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt

Egypt's Red Sea coast is no stranger to all-inclusive resorts, and Sharm El Sheikh is home to some of the most popular thanks to a wealth of sun-drenched beaches and budget-friendly hotels.

Temperatures can hit the high thirties in the summer months, so sipping ice-cold cocktails by your resort pool is the main order of the day. To cool off, a refreshing dip in the sea should do the trick, or you can go one step further and head beneath the waves on a diving tour among the thriving reefs that line the coast.

For adventures beyond your sun-lounger, kick-up sand on a dune buggy safari or splash out on an epic day trip to Cairo's ancient pyramids (be prepared for a very early start).

Compare 7-night all-inclusive holidays to Sharm El Sheikh from £396pp. Flights departing May 13.
