Escapes through Spain in summer and China in autumn, proposals for the holidays

The offers always have to be looked at with a magnifying glass. And it is that you may find a trip with a huge discount, but then, when you dig deeper, it turns out that it is not what it seemed at first. It is not that they are deception, it is that normally all the information cannot be given in a single sentence. That is why it is important to check all the details to the end.

The five offers that we highlight below have passed that control. We have made sure that the real price is the one that is advertised, that there are places available at the time of publication (they can also be sold out later) and that, if they include hotels, they have a good online reputation. That said, it only remains to wish you a very good trip, whatever the chosen destination.

This original last-minute experience is a very original summer plan. These are ten boats that have been transformed into houseboats in the Alcaidesa Marina marina in La Línea de la Concepción, in Cádiz. They offer a 25% discount this summer -what's left of July, August and September-, so the price for one night ranges between €123 and €249 for 2 people.

Includes one night on a boat (there are different sizes) with a terrace and chill out space, sofa table and sun loungers with views of the sea and the Rock of Gibraltar. It has a main cabin with equipped kitchen, rest area with smart TV, double sofa bed, table and additional sofa. It has private parking very close to the boat and free bicycles during the stay.

Where to book: Boat Haus-Mediterranean Experience

When: until the end of September.

If once in Eivissa you feel like traveling to Formentera, you can do it by ferry from €40 round trip.

This is a great opportunity to discover the great historical and cultural treasures of the Asian giant, since after the reopening the prices of the trips are much lower than usual.

The hotel included in the offer is the THB Flora, just 800 meters from the beach, in the heart of Puerto del Carmen. The combination supposes a saving of 15% with respect to the purchase of the services separately and, in addition, they include other extras. We have found numerous outlets below €400.
