Riviera Maya, Mexico

A favourite of holiday-makers, Mexico’s idyllic Riviera Maya is one of the all-time best destinations to enjoy a cheap tropical vacation. With a beautiful climate and endless stretches of white-sand beach, the Riviera Maya is an affordable paradise. Whilst the winter season of December to March is a little more pricey, the remainder of the year sees relatively accessible accommodation and flight costs. All-inclusive resorts are a great choice for a family holiday, whilst the area also boasts more budget-friendly guesthouses. Furthermore, Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, Tulum, and Cozumel are the most popular resorts on the Riviera Maya.

Panama

At the meeting point of both South and Central America, Panama is a great choice if you are looking for cheap tropical places to travel to. Home to lush rainforests, beautiful beaches and the dreamy San Blas Islands, Panama is most famous for its Panama Canal. The great thing about a trip to Panama is that you can combine both sightseeing in historic Panama City with time on the laid-back beaches of Playa Bonita or Bocas del Toro.

Bali, Indonesia

You might think that a holiday to Bali is an expensive escape. In fact, it is one of the more affordable tropical vacation ideas! Destinations in the south of the island tend to be more costly. But, if you stick to the verdant central hills and northern Bali you can enjoy a budget-friendly vacation. March, April and May are the cheapest months to travel to Bali. You can expect a little rain at this time of year, but there will still be plenty of chances to enjoy the free public beaches and amazing sights that this ‘Island of the Gods’ has to offer. Island-hopping throughout Indonesia is another great option for those who want to discover more of the country. Lombok and the Gili islands are within easy reach of Bali by boat.

Palawan, Philippines

Undoubtedly one of the most tropical destinations on earth, the Philippines are a great choice for a cheap tropical vacation! A paradise of crystal clear bays, abundant marine life, subterranean rivers and unique natural wonders, Palawan is otherworldly. The off-season is between June and November. Although you can expect some rain during this time, it is unlikely to rain every day.  Slightly cooler temperatures also allow you to go sightseeing in comfort and enjoy more active pursuits such as hiking and watersports. Puerto Princesa and El Nido are the most popular areas to stay in Palawan.

Cambodia

Whilst most visitors head directly to Cambodia’s awe-inspiring Angkor Wat temples, there are actually a number of dreamy tropical beach destinations to discover here! If you’re looking for a desert-island experience, the beaches of Cambodia are undeveloped and a lot less busy than neighbouring Thailand. Koh Rong is one such destination, located in the province of Sihanoukville. Untouched by mass tourism, this is a paradise to keep in mind when you’re searching for cheap tropical places to travel to! Other places to consider in Cambodia are Koh Krabey and the charming seaside town of Kep.

Phuket, Thailand

Like most of Southeast Asia, the dollar (or pound) can go a long way in Thailand. Therefore, the paradise beaches of Phuket are an excellent choice for a cheap tropical vacation! One of the most popular Thai islands, Phuket has accommodation options for all budgets. As well as backpacker-friendly lodgings, you’ll also find more pricey luxury resorts and family-friendly all-inclusive hotels. The low season is between July and October. The rains arrive slowly, so visiting at the beginning of the low season is the best idea if you’re hoping to spend time at the beach. On the other hand, the low season means fewer crowds so if you’re happy to contend with a few downpours, you’ll be greatly rewarded with an affordable tropical vacation!
