'Best value' holiday in the world for Brits has 32 degree summer and pints for less than £1.20

'Best value' holiday in the world for Brits has 32 degree summer and pints for less than £1.20

The destination is further afield than some of our European favourites, however.

With how much a pint costs in the UK nowadays, it's always nice to sip on the sweet nectar much cheaper abroad.

To be honest, with how much everything seems to cost for us Brits, I think a lot of us will be looking for a cheap getaway this summer.

And there are plenty of options... with Brits raving about a 'new Ibiza' with 35-degree heat, cheaper bars and lively nightlife and one particular Greek island with iconic bars and clubs.

But if you are looking for the 'best value' holiday on the planet, well that's going to take you further afield.

Holiday Money Report, a recent report from Post Office Travel Money, looked into the 30 best-selling currencies and how they rank against sterling.

The report found that when visiting 19 long haul destinations and six European ones, British holidaymakers can expect to pay less than a year ago.

But topping the value-for-money chart for the time is in fact Vietnam, where you may want to visit the picturesque coastal city of Hoi An.

There has been a 14.4 percent price fall in the Vietnamese city, all thanks to lower charges in restaurants and bars and a drop in value of their local currency, Vietnamese dong.

And what will come as music to the ears of many Brits, Hoi An offers the cheapest beer at just £1.16.

They'll certainly be a few sore heads in the morning with them prices!

On top of that, Hoi An offers summer temperatures of 32C, so you'll certainly need a beer to cool down.

Head of Post Office Travel Money, Laura Plunkett, said: “The barometer results make it clear how sterling’s strength has impacted individual destinations. Long haul travellers can expect more for their money because the pound has gained ground in most destinations.

"By comparison, sterling’s gain against the euro has been more modest so it will pay to compare eurozone destinations. Portugal and Cyprus look like the best choices for bargain hunters."

If Vietnam is a little far for those bargain pints, then another option for British holidaymakers is Bodrum in Turkey.

Sitting pretty on the southwest coast of Turkey, the party town hosts holidaymakers from far and wide.

And with the average pint of lager in Bodrum costing just £2.24, what's not to like.

The weather is pretty good too.

According to Holiday Weather, the beach resort sees an average high of 26C in May, 30C in June and a whopping 34C in July.

Even in December temperatures reach a decent 16C.
