Best Loved Traditional Mediterranean Destinations

Who doesn’t love a break in Italy, Spain, Malta, Greece or Cyprus? These are some of the Med’s traditional top holiday hot-spots which continued to attract many holidaymakers, many year after year. Each of these countries in summer time promises good hot temperatures and boasts an attractive coastline with azure waters and beaches perfect for relaxing on.

With the event of the Euro, these well-loved and popular holiday destinations have become less competitive price-wise and some holidaymakers have therefore sought alternatives. Booking and staying in self-catering accommodation however, can help keep costs down and holidays in these traditionally appealing Mediterranean Destinations as appealing as ever.

Morocco as a fascinating and interesting holiday destination is not new but has grown in popularity over recent years. Again, outside of the Eurozone, Morocco can be a good value holiday destination. Particularly, if you arrange accommodation and book cheap flights direct. 5 star hotels are typically universally expensive whatever the destination, but by booking and staying in an apartment or villa, it’s possible to save and stay in appealing yet good value accommodation.
