On average, consumers can enjoy a lavish five-star week-long package holiday, including one meal and a fun day out to a local attraction, for £776, which is less than the cost of a three-star break in Larnaca (£828) and over £1,000 cheaper per person than a family holiday to Costa del Sol. The second cheapest five-star destination, Egypt, will cost consumers, on average, £795 per person for a week abroad.

The average price of seven-night holidays to Malta is also less than the average cost of a three-star break in Larnaca, with the average per person spend for a five-star holiday equalling £818. Holidaymakers still looking for late deals to Dalaman this summer can snap up a five-star package holiday deal for £833, which is just £5 more, on average, than a three-star holiday in Larnaca.

The Algarve and Costa Dorada, hugely popular family summer destinations throughout the school holidays, also round out the top five cheapest five-star holiday destinations, just creeping in under the £1,000 barrier with prices reaching £985 and £996 per person respectively.

Holidaymakers keen on a five-star break to Spain may want to keep in mind that the average price of a seven-night five-star break to the Balearic Island of Mallorca is £1,284, pushing it quite far down the list of cheapest destinations. Remarkably, it is £192 more expensive per person than a five-star break in Gran Canaria and almost £300 more expensive than Costa Dorada.
