Crete and Corfu in top value for money destinations for British families

2017 Family Holiday Report from Post Office Travel Money

Newsroom July 26 09:29

The 2017 Family Holiday Report from Post Office Travel Money includes Crete and Corfu as two destinations for families that offer the best value for money regarding food and drink. The report reveals that British holidaymakers who want to keep spending on children’s beach extras would be well advised to consider resorts in the Eastern Med or the Balkans where the price tag can be under half the cost in more expensive destinations in the west of Europe. The average costs of a total of 15 destinations were calculated by aggregating 12 typical beach items. The total cost for food and drink in Crete is estimated at £81,39, while buying beach extra comes to £69,88, a 5.4% drop from last season. Corfu is a more expensive option than Crete, as food and drink is calculated at £116 and beach extras at £87,22.
