Whether you're looking for a budget city break in a chic location like New York or Las Vegas, or you'd rather spend your time relaxing on a far flung beach like St Lucia or Thailand, with the sound of the waves crashing on the soft, white, sandy beach, your next faraway holiday doesn't have to cost a fortune. There are plenty of budget-friendly longhaul destinations to be discovered. From self-contained, all-inclusive resorts, so you can do very little, to the more off the beaten track type accommodation, you'll find it can be easy to book your far away holiday. Perhaps you'd just like to dip your toes in some aqua-marine water, while the sun shines and the kids are building sand castles.
Don't forget you can also maximise your holiday by enjoying a stopover on the way or on the way back in some fantastic destinations like New York, Dubai, Singapore and so many other fun destinations.
