Budget holiday at sea - the most pressing topic in summer period. You can organize a vacation for yourself not only in Russia, but also abroad.

About travel packages...

Independent trips to resorts are usually much cheaper than travel packages. But this rule does not always work. For a number of foreign destinations, it is sometimes cheaper to purchase a last-minute tour, the cost of which may even be lower than the flight. You can select such trips yourself on the appropriate resources.

Rules for finding a budget holiday

If you are planning to independently organize a budget holiday at sea for yourself, then you should be guided by the following rules:

  1. The first thing that will help you save cash- this is a refusal to rest during the high season. When planning a vacation, you should focus on the beginning or end of the season. For domestic resorts this is May, early June and September. Firstly, at this time there is no such noticeable heat, and secondly, the sea is warm. And the prices differ significantly. If swimming in the sea is not a fundamental issue for you, and you are ready to relax by the pool and go on excursions, then in countries such as Bulgaria and Turkey, you can relax economically from October to April. During this period, even the most luxurious hotels offer significant discounts, so holidays become much more affordable. Many foreign resort complexes have heated swimming pools, which save the situation when the sea is cold.
  2. If you want to spend a vacation in Bulgaria and Turkey, then you should opt not for half board, but for everyone’s favorite concept. Initially, it may seem to you that you are overpaying extra money, but in fact, purchasing drinks and food will cost you much more.
  3. In order to organize the most budget-friendly seaside holiday abroad, you need to purchase last-minute tours or use the early booking service.
  4. Don't forget that traveling alone is much more expensive than traveling with a group.

Sochi and Adler

Sochi and Adler are an obvious solution for a budget holiday at sea in Russia. Airplane tickets Moscow - Adler are relatively inexpensive - from about 5,800 rubles. The low-cost carrier Pobeda still operates flights in this direction. You can buy cheaper tickets from this company - from a thousand rubles, but it is worth considering that they are sold out quickly.

You can rent a house in Sochi from 20 dollars (1200 rubles), in Adler it is much cheaper - from 10 dollars (600 rubles). You can eat at the resorts in budget canteens.

In Sochi, inexpensive rooms are offered by the three-star hotels “Rose of the Winds” and “Valentin”; the cost of a double room in them will cost 3,000 and 3,200 rubles per day. For a resort, such prices can be considered quite affordable. Both establishments have a good location - in the very center of the city.

The two-star complex “Nairi” offers double rooms with a balcony for 2700 rubles. The hotel has a sauna, bar, massage, swimming pool and much more.

Fans of comfortable rooms and good service can recommend four-star establishments Park Inn by Radisson and Zhemchuzhina, a stay in them per day will cost 4,600 and 5,200 rubles, respectively.

Accommodation in Adler

For those planning a budget vacation at sea in Russia, Adler may be an ideal option. The resort not only has expensive hotels, but also quite budget establishments and even guesthouses. The choice of housing is quite large. Among the proven hotels, we can recommend the three-star Almira (3,000 rubles) with excellent rooms and good service, the more expensive Vesna complex (5,000 rubles), which has the most positive reviews and excellent infrastructure (swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, massage).

Accommodation in four-star hotels in Adler will cost a little more. "AS-Hotel" offers double apartments from three thousand rubles. This is enough a budget option, since in more famous establishments rooms cost from seven thousand rubles.

Crimea

Speaking about a budget holiday at sea with children, it is worth paying attention to Crimea. In 2017, the cost of a Moscow-Simferopol plane ticket will cost approximately 7,000 rubles, and even cheaper in the fall and spring. From Simferopol you can get to any resort on the peninsula.

Budget meals in Sudak, for example, will cost 200-300 rubles in a canteen (dinner, lunch, breakfast). If you want to order food in restaurants, then the amount of food expenses will increase to 500 rubles.

The most budget-friendly seaside holiday in Russia can only be achieved if you live in the private sector. In Crimea, for example, you can choose small villages for recreation - Olenevka, Nikolaevka, Shtormovoe. In such places in guest houses you can find rooms for even three hundred rubles a day. On larger and famous resorts prices are higher. The minimum cost of living increases to 600 rubles per room. The average cost of living in 2017 in the private sector starts from a thousand rubles for a double apartment.

Remember that the further you move from the coast, the lower the prices for food. In canteens and inexpensive cafes you can eat for two hundred rubles, and in inexpensive restaurant for no less than 400 rubles. Food prices are more affordable in small resort villages. Accommodation and food in Yalta will cost much more than in other places, although budget places can be found here too.

Resorts of the Azov Sea
