If you’re looking for a last-minute summer getaway, then good news — you can still find remarkably affordable deals for Spanish destinations.

Spain has long been one of the most popular destinations for British holidaymakers on a budget, offering numerous hotspots with reasonably priced accommodation and budget airline flights.

According to the Office for National Statistics, Spain was the most visited country by UK residents in 2023, with a whopping 17.8 million packing their bags. Preliminary data suggests it remained in the top spot last year, too.

But which destinations have the cheapest flights and accommodation?

Metro crunched the numbers so you don’t have to.

The cheapest flights from UK to Spain in 2025

Several of Spain’s most sought-after destinations are served by daily flights from budget airlines such as easyJet and Ryanair, with fares starting from as little as £13.

Let’s take a look:

Palma (Majorca)

Majorca’s capital Palma often sees deals from £13 to £40 one-way (with return fares often between £25 and £90 in off-peak/flash deals). Some of the cheapest offers at the moment are from London Luton and Manchester.

Cheap hotels in Spain for 2025

Spanish destinations typically offer reasonable accommodation, though it’s worth cross-checking reviews, as some locations might be more, erm, ‘luxurious’ than others.

That said, if you are prepared to be flexible with your dates and locations, it’s possible to find a bargain for perfectly comfortable three and four-star properties.

The average prices quoted are based on live rates on Thursday, 14 August 2025.
