On the Beach has announced two significant changes to holiday bookings, allowing travelers to secure their vacation with the smallest deposit in its history and bring a child along at no extra charge.
Starting today, On the Beach has reduced its deposits by £11, enabling Brits to book their 2026 holiday for just £19 per person. This move aims to make holiday reservations as affordable as possible, especially for those facing financial challenges post-Christmas.
In addition to the deposit reduction, On the Beach has introduced a promotion offering free children’s accommodation on selected breaks. This initiative will provide complimentary hotel stays for kids at family-friendly resorts in popular destinations like the Canaries, Turkey, Spain, Egypt, and the Balearics.
Zoe Harris, chief customer officer at On the Beach, expressed that these changes are geared towards making holidays more budget-friendly for families. By lowering deposits and offering free stays for kids, the company aims to alleviate the financial burden associated with booking vacations, particularly during financially tight periods.
Moreover, On the Beach is not only focusing on low deposits and complimentary kids’ stays. The package holiday specialist is also providing additional perks for all 2026 holiday bookings. Travelers booking with On the Beach in 2026 and reserving up to 60 days before departure are entitled to three perks, including options like complimentary lounge access, free gadget insurance, free weather protection, a £50 Amazon voucher, Price Drop Protection, and 1GB of free mobile data.
These changes are designed to give families confidence to plan their vacations early, manage costs effectively, and have something enjoyable to anticipate without added stress.
