It will help you understand where to rest is cheap and where is expensive. Compare indexes, choose a resort and fly on a vacation on a budget.

How do we calculate the index?

We calculate two indexes of the cost of rest: for vacationers on a tour and for independent tourists.

Tour rest index. For each destination we find the cheapest tours for two for 10 days. To the cost of the tour per person, we add the cost of a visa (if necessary). The result is divided by 10. We get the cost of rest per day per person.

Independent travel index. We sum up the main expenses of the tourist and divide by 10:

• Air tickets. We are looking for the cheapest round-trip flight from Moscow. Tickets can be without luggage and with transfers.
• Housing. We find double rooms at the lowest price, we do not consider hostels. Calculation per person for 10 days.
• Visa (if needed).

What do we not consider? Meals, transportation, excursions, etc. - these expenses are individual, they are difficult to calculate. Our index does not reflect all the costs of a trip, but allows you to compare the cost of a holiday by base points.

Why are tickets and tours only from Moscow considered? Firstly, most tourists fly from the capital on vacation. Secondly, the cheapest tickets and tours are usually from Moscow. If we count the indexes for departures from all cities of Russia, the review will surpass "War and Peace" in terms of volume.

And even cheaper? Can! In some cases, your vacation will cost even less than according to our calculations. You will save if:

• find a cheap one or ;
• you already have and you are going to Europe;
• fly for a holiday in the low season.

Prices have been updated for the summer season 2019 and are indicated in Russian rubles. Indices for European countries are duplicated in euros, for Asia - in US dollars.

Exchange rate: 1 US dollar ≈ 65 RUB.

Budget holidays at sea - the most relevant topic in the summer. You can organize a vacation for yourself not only in Russia, but also abroad.

About tickets...

Self-guided trips to resorts are usually much cheaper than package tours. But this rule does not always work. For a number of foreign destinations, it is sometimes cheaper to purchase a last-minute tour, the cost of which may even be lower than the flight. You can choose such trips on the relevant resources.

Rules for finding a budget holiday

If you plan to independently organize a budget vacation at sea for yourself, then you should be guided by the following rules:

1. The first thing that will help save money is the refusal to rest during the high season. When planning a vacation, you should focus on the beginning or end of the season. For domestic resorts, this is May, early June and September. Firstly, at this time there is no such tangible heat, and secondly, the sea is warm. And yes, prices vary greatly. If swimming in the sea is not a matter of principle for you, and you are ready to relax by the pool and go on excursions, then in countries such as Bulgaria and Turkey, you can economically relax from October to April. During this period, even the most luxurious hotels give significant discounts, so the rest becomes much more affordable. Many foreign resort complexes have heated pools that save the day when the sea is cold.
2. If you want to spend holidays in Bulgaria and Turkey, then you should opt not for half board, but for the beloved concept. Initially, it may seem to you that you are overpaying extra money, but in fact, purchasing drinks and food will cost you much more.
3. In order to organize the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad, you need to purchase last-minute tours or use the early booking service.
4. Do not forget that the rest alone is much more expensive than in the company.

Sochi and Adler

Sochi and Adler are the obvious solution for a budget seaside vacation in Russia. Tickets for the Moscow-Adler plane are relatively inexpensive - from about 5800 rubles. The Pobeda low-cost airline still flies in this direction. In this company, you can buy cheaper tickets - from a thousand rubles, but it should be borne in mind that they are quickly taken apart.

You can rent a house in Sochi from 20 dollars (1200 rubles), in Adler it is much cheaper - from 10 dollars (600 rubles). You can eat at the resorts in budget canteens.

In Sochi, inexpensive rooms are offered by three-star hotels Roza Vetrov and Valentin, the cost of a double room in them will cost 3000 and 3200 rubles per day. For a resort, such prices can be considered quite democratic. Both establishments have a good location - in the heart of the city.

The two-star complex "Nairi" offers double rooms with a balcony for 2700 rubles. The hotel has a sauna, bar, massage, swimming pool and much more.

Fans of comfortable rooms and good service can recommend the four-star establishments Park Inn by Radisson and Zhemchuzhina, a stay in them per day will cost 4,600 and 5,200 rubles, respectively.

Accommodation in Adler

For those who are planning a budget seaside vacation in Russia, Adler can be an ideal option. The resort has not only expensive hotels, but also quite budgetary establishments and even guesthouses. The choice of housing is quite large. Among the tested hotels, we can recommend the three-star Almira (3,000 rubles) with excellent rooms and good service, the more expensive Vesna complex (5,000 rubles), which has the most positive reviews and excellent infrastructure (swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, massage).

Accommodation in four-star hotels in Adler will cost a little more. "AS-Hotel" offers double apartments from three thousand rubles. This is a fairly budget option, since in more eminent establishments rooms cost from seven thousand rubles.

Crimea

Speaking about a budget vacation at sea with children, you should pay attention to the Crimea. In 2017, the cost of a Moscow-Simferopol ticket by plane will cost about 7,000 rubles, and in autumn and spring it will be even cheaper. From Simferopol you can get to any resort on the peninsula.

Budget food in Sudak, for example, will cost 200-300 rubles in the dining room (dinner, lunch, breakfast). If you want to order food in restaurants, then the amount of food expenses will increase to 500 rubles.

The most budgetary seaside vacation in Russia can only be provided if you live in the private sector. In Crimea, for example, you can choose small villages for recreation - Olenevka, Nikolaevka, Shtormovoe. In such places in guest houses you can find rooms even for three hundred rubles a day. In larger and more famous resorts, prices are higher. The minimum cost of living increases to 600 rubles per room. The average cost of living in 2017 in the private sector starts from a thousand rubles for a double apartment. In general, the villages can be safely considered as a budget holiday on the Black Sea with children.

As for food, various eateries and canteens, national cafes, canteens at guest houses with home cooking, and fast food establishments can be considered as a budget option. Remember that the more you move away from the coast, the lower the price of food. In canteens and inexpensive cafes you can eat for two hundred rubles, and in an inexpensive restaurant for at least 400 rubles. Food prices are more democratic in small resort villages. Accommodation and food in Yalta will cost much more than in other places, although budget places can be found here.

Sea of ​​Azov resorts

Budget holidays on the Sea of ​​​​Azov can be offered in the villages of Peresyp, Kuchugury and Ilyich. These small villages have good sandy beaches and little developed infrastructure. Here you can find accommodation mainly in guest houses and the private sector.

It will cost a little more to stay in the village of Golubitskaya and Yeisk, which has pretty decent hotels, an embankment, a cafe and a park. Stanitsa Golubitskaya also has a well-developed infrastructure. There is a nightclub, water attractions, mini-hotels and Renting a house in the village of Ilyich in 2017 will cost 1.5-3 thousand rubles, in Taman and Peresyp - up to 2.5 thousand rubles, and in the village of Golubitskaya - up to 6 thousand rubles. Accommodation in the private sector costs an average of 250-600 rubles per person per day.

The resort villages of the Sea of ​​Azov are not so developed, but they are incredibly convenient for families with children. The warm shallow sea is the best place for kids.

Italy

If you are looking for options for a budget vacation at sea in European countries, then you should pay attention to Italy. From Moscow you can take inexpensive tickets to the main cities of the country - Milan, Rome, Venice. The cost of a flight to these destinations is always cheaper (from 9,000 rubles) than to small cities. And directly to the resorts can be reached by local buses.

A budget seaside vacation in Italy can be organized at one of the most famous resorts - Rimini. Of course, accommodation in local hotels cannot be called cheap - from $35 per room per night, but such offers are quite rare. On average, it is worth focusing on 50-100 dollars a day. In terms of meals, the minimum cost for breakfast is $4, lunch is $7, and dinner is over $10.

It is worth noting that Rimini is known for its beaches and warm water with shallow entry, so the resort is perfect for a budget seaside vacation with children. The resort has a well-developed infrastructure and a good selection of hotels for every taste and budget. Rimini is also in demand among young people.

Bulgaria

In Bulgaria, you can organize the most budgetary holidays on the Black Sea abroad, which is why all local resorts are incredibly popular among tourists. Sunny Beach is considered the most democratic place to stay. Fine sand on the beaches and a gentle entrance to the sea have long been loved by supporters of beach and sea holidays. The coast has a width of about forty meters, and in length it stretches for eight kilometers. In modest hotels, you can rent a small room for $19 per night.

An even more budgetary vacation on the Black Sea can only be in small Bulgarian seaside villages and towns. In such areas there are many two- and three-star hotels, as well as guest houses in the private sector. Locals often rent out the upper floors of their houses to tourists. Holidays in Kranevo, Balchik, Nessebar, St. Vlas, Pomorie, Ravda and Tsarevo can be economical.

Sometimes tours to Bulgarian resorts can be purchased at very affordable prices (from 20 thousand rubles). And promotional offers can be even more attractive. And this despite the fact that the cost of the tour includes accommodation, flights, insurance and transfers.

Bulgaria is interesting for many travelers because it offers a budget seaside vacation in September. At this time, the air temperature drops to +25 degrees, there is no summer heat and heat, and the sea water remains warm. In September it is good to have a rest in Nessebar, Sofia, Sozopol, Balchik, Plovdiv and Varna. The cost of living in the resorts is reduced, because there is no large influx of tourists.

Croatia

Budget holidays at sea abroad can offer Croatia. The cost of a ticket from Moscow to Dubrovnik, Pula or Split in both directions is 13 thousand rubles. In such well-known hotel prices are quite high. You can rent an economy room for $30. And, for example, in Dubrovnik, you will have to pay at least $ 40 for a night in a guesthouse, while the institution will be located far from the historical center. The cost of rooms in four-star hotels starts at $130.

If you consider small towns, such as Plat and Cavtat, as a vacation spot, you can save a lot. Resort villages offer clear sea, clean air and beautiful beaches on the Adriatic coast. What else do you need for a holiday with children?

Cyprus

Cyprus can also be considered as a place for a budget vacation at sea in the summer. The cost of a flight from Moscow to Larnaca in the summer is about 10,600 rubles. Aircraft of the Pobeda airline now fly to Cyprus. Sometimes flying into a country can be incredibly budget-friendly, especially if you're lucky enough to take advantage of a promotion from one of the airlines. But it is not so easy to save money on living in Cyprus. The most budget rooms in Limassol, Larnaca and Paphos cost at least $33 per night. On average, the cost of rooms in hotels ranges from 40-60 dollars.

Meals in an inexpensive institution will cost up to $ 50 per day per person. For those who want to save money, we can recommend buying food in supermarkets. As a budget option, you can rent a studio with a kitchen, then you will have the opportunity to greatly reduce food costs.

Greece

A more budget option for a seaside holiday, unlike Cyprus, can be arranged in Greece. A flight from Moscow to Athens or Thessaloniki will cost about 8,800 rubles. But tickets to Corfu, Crete and Rhodes are much more expensive (12,000 rubles).

Accommodation in the most inexpensive hotel in Thessaloniki will cost about $ 25 per day for a double apartment, in Crete - $ 29. But in Rhodes you can find cheaper establishments, for $ 17 you will be offered a completely acceptable room.

Budget food in an inexpensive cafe will cost an average of about $15 per day (dinner - 6, lunch - 5, and breakfast - 4 dollars). On average, a vacation in Greece will cost a tourist at least $250-350 per week.

Turkey

Many Russians have chosen Turkish resorts and have long felt at home there. Here you can not only relax comfortably on the Black or Mediterranean Sea, but also go shopping, as well as see local beauties and sights. The main advantage of Turkish hotels is excellent animation, good infrastructure and, of course, All Inclusive.

The cost of holidays in Turkey depends on the season, resort and season. So, for example, a vacation in Antalya costs about $200, in Kemer - $250, but in Istanbul - $350. A two-week tour for two can be purchased at prices ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. And if you're lucky and manage to find a last-minute vacation, then the most budget vacation at sea in the fall can cost half as much as in the season. Russians give preference to Turkish resorts for the opportunity to have a good rest and food, for numerous sights and the cleanest sea.

Egypt

Egypt, along with Turkey, leads the list of budget countries for seaside holidays. This direction has long been studied by the Russians. Egypt offers tourists good service, warm climate, good infrastructure and plenty of entertainment. All this can be obtained for $ 250 for a week's vacation.

The gentle sun, the Red Sea and "all inclusive" - ​​this is what tourists seek to get to Egypt for. Do not forget that local attractions are of great interest - the most ancient architectural monuments: the Sphinx, the pyramids, Luxor. These places are a must visit place for every traveler.

Thailand

Another budget option for a seaside holiday is Thailand. This country is no less popular as a beach resort than Egypt and Turkey. The high season in Thailand starts around mid-autumn and ends at the beginning of winter. Therefore, the most budget tours are in May and April.

A ten-day vacation in Thailand will cost 700-800 dollars. Experienced tour operators believe that it is in this country that you can relax the cheapest in 2017. This is due to the fact that in any region of the country you can have a great rest for 15-25 dollars. per day. If you decide to visit the country on your own, then you should expect that you will need about $ 400 per month for housing if you rent an apartment in the center of Pattaya.

But on such islands as Chang, Phuket, Phi Phi, Koh Samui, you can rent a room for only 150-200 dollars per month. If you do not classify yourself as a spoiled person, then you will find a room for $90.

The advantage of a holiday in Thailand is that the products here are incredibly cheap. And because food costs mere pennies. A hundred dollars a month will be enough for food. In any cafe for two dollars you can have a delicious lunch, and lunch in a restaurant will cost six dollars.

Vietnam

Vietnam is an amazingly beautiful place. Here you can find many places, almost untouched by human hand. In recent years, the popularity of Vietnamese resorts has been growing more and more. And despite this, holidays in the country remain as affordable as ever. For ten dollars a day in Vietnam, you can live, eat, go on excursions and go for a massage. And if you have $ 20 a day in your budget, you can generally not deny yourself anything. For a wonderful vacation for a month, it is enough to have $400-500 in your pocket (not counting the cost of the flight).

Goa (India)

Goa is also one of the popular budget destinations. Here, with 100 dollars, you can have a great rest and not deny yourself anything, especially if you decide to visit North Goa.

Rest in the resort for Europeans is very cheap, especially away from cities. The cost of a holiday in Goa increases in winter, because at this time the high season begins.

For a budget holiday, you can recommend purchasing a ticket in the off-season, then the tour, together with the flight, can cost from $ 400. If you prefer to stay not in a hotel, but in a cheap guesthouse, you can save up to 30% of your budget. Goa is popular among our compatriots due to its good tropical climate and the opportunity to relax almost all year round.

Abkhazia

Do not forget that Abkhazia can also offer a budget holiday at sea. Since it is located next to Russia, there is no need to spend money on an expensive flight. Many tourists go to Abkhazia because of the opportunity to have an inexpensive vacation on the Black Sea, especially since Russians do not need any additional documents (passports and visas). And the road to the Abkhazian resorts does not take much time.

If your budget is not too large, then you can stay in the private sector, where the cost of budget housing ranges from 300-350 rubles per person per day. More comfortable apartments will cost about 500 rubles. In general, a week-long vacation without a trip will require from you approximately 5600 to 10 thousand rubles per tourist.

Having 30 thousand rubles, you can also afford to see the beautiful sights of this amazing region.

Abkhazia is not in the first place on our list only because it is not exactly Russia, it is nearby :) In all other respects, this is the best place where you can go to the sea with a Russian passport. A foreign passport is not needed, rubles are in use, the locals speak Russian.

In Abkhazia, prices are lower, and seaside holidays are more comfortable. There are much more chances to find good beaches and clear sea. In addition, there are fewer tourists on the sea in Abkhazia - the main thing is to drive away from Sukhumi to resort places, and then you can find a very inexpensive vacation on the seashore. Right on the beach!

How to get to Abkhazia

From Moscow or St. Petersburg directly to Sukhumi can be inexpensively reached by train. On the road 38 and 45 hours.
Either from another city in Russia by train or plane to Sochi (Adler) airport, and from there trains and buses go to Sukhumi, the journey takes 2-3 hours.

If you are driving on your own or through a checkpoint at the border across the Psou River, just get out and show your passport and documents for the car. Leave - through the same checkpoint. There are no difficulties at the border, a pure formality.

Where to stay

There are not many modern accommodation options in Abkhazia, mainly the “soviet” private sector, which is easy to book upon arrival. However, there are quite good guest houses and even excellent inexpensive hotels, but it is better to book them in advance in order to get a civilized one for the price of a “wild” vacation. It's possible! Here are some options.

For starters, you can stay near the city of Sukhumi and close to the sea - in the guest house "Rufina" - cheap, but quite comfortable.

We go further, where there are fewer tourists, and we find the Alamys guest house, ideal in terms of price and quality (see photos, reviews and prices), is conveniently located in the resort of Gudauta, near the Black Sea. There are comfortable sun loungers on the beach and there are no other tourists nearby. Clean sea, delicious food. You can admire the sea around the clock from the balcony of the room - you won’t be able to find anything like it on the first line by the sea in Sochi or Lazarevsky.

In addition to the sea, Abkhazia has beautiful nature, delicious wine and food. And the prices! Probably, such low prices for sea holidays in Russia are nowhere to be found. Even a hotel with three meals a day costs 2 times cheaper than in Russia.

Napra in Abkhazia - an inexpensive recreation center with three meals a day

If on vacation you don’t want to think about where to eat, just go to the recreation center “Napra” and relax:

A nice bonus in this hotel is the view of the Black Sea on one side and the mountains on the other. See photos and prices

We also recommend a trip to the magical Lake Ritsa in Abkhazia and see waterfalls and magnificent places along the way. If you don’t have your own car, then contact someone who will help organize everything and take you to the most beautiful places in Abkhazia, and you can arrange a trip directly from Sochi.
