Cheaper than the Maldives? Here's 5 alternatives to consider to the bucket-list destination that won't break the bank.
A trip to the Maldives doesn’t come cheap Lunar white sand beaches, turquoise water and tropical temperatures — it’s no wonder the Maldives is one of the world’s most desirable holiday destinations. But paradise comes at a price, and in the case of this south Asian destination, it’s a hefty one. A week in an Instagrammable over-water villa will set you back at least £2,000 during peak season, which runs from December to April.
Beachfront apartments can be rented for less than £20 a night, while it’s not unusual to pay around £15 for a full meal with drinks. Flights to Albania are also remarkably affordable, with Ryanair flying to Tirana from as little as £30 for a return trip. Made popular by TikTok videos of sparkling oceans and bright white sand, Albania certainly offers a taste of the Maldives lifestyle, boasting a Mediterranean climate with highs of 30°C in the summer months.
