Holidays are getting harder to book. We seem to have such a big expectation. Who can blame us? For many people when they book a holiday it is their one escape of the year. The one chance to sit and relax, to forget about work and daily stress. So it has to be the right place and most importantly for the right price. We want it all. The luxury but not the cost. However, holidaying in Europe means you can get exactly that. The locations on offer are breathtaking. So I thought I would share with you five of the best places to consider that can offer your luxury for a decent price.
Greece
Greece is one the most stunning places to witness. With white washed buildings and monuments rich in Greek history there is something for everyone. There is mainland Greece, but you also have many islands that span the Greek coastline. All are offering their unique individual charm. There are some real hidden gems on offer like Amanzoe Porto Heli, which will take your breath away.
Cyprus
Cyprus is one of the largest islands in the Mediterranean Sea. There are some great places to consider visiting. There is the North part of the island which is Turkish and the south of the Island which is Greek. Both have stunning scenery and are unique in their own right. The most popular among tourists would be the south. But don’t let that put you off discovering the north of the island.
Croatia

Ibiza
Ibiza is more well-known for young singles to head over there for the clubbing scene of San Antonio, but there is so much more to this island. Ibiza is a real scenic island with some wonderful attractions that are suitable for the whole family. Although it is popular with the younger generation, don’t let that put you off. Some of the accommodation in the quieter towns are very luxurious.
Sweden
If you want a different type of holiday, then look no further than Sweden. Whether it is snow filled mountains or vast greenery you are after, Sweden has something to offer for everyone. The accommodation types can vary from place to place. But there is nothing more luxurious and unique than a log cabin with an outdoor hot tub in the middle of nowhere. The perfect place to relax and unwind.

With many bustling cities to white sandy beaches or the Costa’s, there is something for everyone. Spain can offer you wonderful accommodation no matter what you budget is.
