MADRID – Now that everything is getting more expensive and you are confronted with price increases everywhere, it is important not to spend unnecessarily too much on your holiday. It can save a lot of money if you choose a cheap(er) holiday destination.
Because you are often also tied to holiday periods, in which everyone goes on a trip, it is often difficult to get the best prices available. Especially in August, when accommodation prices logically rise in proportion to the increase in demand.

According to the travel website Holidu, the average for a holiday home in Spain is 180 euros per night. However, the prices vary considerably per region and which period you choose.
