A recent survey has highlighted the Algarve as one of the cheapest places in the world to enjoy a holiday.

(TRAVPR.COM) UK - January 29th, 2014 - A recent survey has highlighted the Algarve as one of the cheapest places in the world to enjoy a holiday, providing even more reason to visit this heralded region of southern Portugal on an unforgettable getaway with Villa Parade.

The Algarve has always been renowned as one of the top holidaying destinations, with its award-winning beaches, idyllic towns and villages full of character and charm just some of the features which attract millions of visitors every year.

This fantastic news comes after the Post Office conducted their annual survey on the price of a basket of everyday holiday items, including the cost of a three-course meal for two, going out for a drink, and purchasing sun cream.

The Algarve finished in second place worldwide in the survey, with a total basket price of £35.47. Finishing above many other famous destinations such as Sunny Beach in Bulgaria, Spain’s Costa del Sol and Hungary’s capital Budapest, this is a clear indication of the incredible value for money you could benefit from when jetting off for a week in the sun in Portugal.

Part of the appeal of staying in a Villa Parade holidays villa or apartment is that they are yours on a self-catering basis, giving you more freedom to explore the Algarve at your leisure; this means that you can discover the great value of the region’s restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities whenever you wish, rather than having to adhere to the meal-time restrictions of a holiday resort.
