A lesser-known corner of the Canary Islands is turning heads this year because it offers the best bang for your buck this holiday season in Spain. And better yet, without all the tourist crowds or the premium prices that typically come with the islands’ most popular resorts. And down below, a list of 10 of the cheapest Spain holiday vacations you might not have known existed.
If you’re looking for a vacation getaway that allows you to make the most of the sunshine, then Costa del Silencio in Tenerife must be on your radar, the Mirror reported. Travel experts have revealed this location as the best value destination in the Canary Islands this summer.
According to TravelSupermarket research, a week’s holiday in Costa del Silencio costs an average of £424 per person (just under 500 euros) between May and September. At that price, it makes La Costa del Silencio the cheapest spot in the ranking of all Spanish holiday destinations.
Exceptional value this summer season
“Costa del Silencio offers exceptional value for those seeking summer sun in the Canaries,” explained Steph Marinkovic, Head of Editorial at TravelSupermarket. “What’s great about this spot is that it’s much quieter than Tenerife’s busy southern resorts, but it’s super affordable.”
“You’ve got the amazing golden Montaña Amarilla volcanic formation right on your doorstep – one of Tenerife’s most Instagram-worthy natural landmarks – without paying the premium prices you’d expect for such spectacular scenery,“ Marinkovic said.
“The destination is known for excellent snorkelling and diving opportunities in its crystalline waters, as well as easy access to nearby Golf del Sur for affordable golfing,“ he added.
It’s worth noting that if you’re after the bustling clubs or wild nights out, this may not be your scene — the name itself says a lot — but for those who appreciate peace, relaxation, and a chance to enjoy the finer side of the islands without battling the crowds, Costa del Silencio offers a refuge.
Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas
That’s not to say there’s no atmosphere — there are plenty of restaurants and bars — but there’s a much more laid-back feeling here. And if you do want a bit more action, it’s just a 20-minute drive to the popular areas of Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas.
While Costa del Silencio tops the list for best value in the Canaries, for all Spanish holiday spots, it’s Manilva on the Costa del Sol — with prices starting from just £371 (436 euros) — that stands out.
“Across the top ten, we see a mix of established resort towns and lesser-known gems, giving budget-conscious travellers plenty of options for their summer getaway,“ the travel editor said.
“No matter your holiday style — whether you prefer authentic villages, vibrant resorts, or family-friendly beaches — there’s a bargain destination in Spain to match,“ Marinkovic concluded.
