Whether you’re off on a post GCSE or ‘A’ Level blowout this year, or are hoping for some Inbetweeners-style shenanigans, you’re first holiday without the folks needs to be epic. Of course you’re nothing like those loose cannons on Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parents, but Spain holidays are all about letting your hair down, and getaways to the Greek Islands should pose plenty of opportunities for mischief. Here are a few suggestions on where to go and affordable places to stay on your very first parent-free holiday, whether you’re on the hunt for culture, city-chic, beautiful beaches or cheap drinks – and plenty of them. San Antonio sans parents If we’re talking Spain holidays it’s impossible not to mention the party-capital itself; Ibiza. Get a gang of your mates and book flights for the summer today. You’ll save cash on the airfare by booking in advance and the best way to keep living costs down is to share an apartment. Stay somewhere like the Zodiac Apartments in San Antonio Bay and four of you can share a lush two-room apartment. You get a gorgeous view of the pool, a private balcony, a fragrant garden and terrace on site. Plus you’re just a short taxi ride from all the hedonistic action. Book your accommodation soon as possible and you can expect to pay just £100 per person for the pleasure. Cultured Costa Brava If you like Spain holidays with a little culture with your Corona, the Costa Brava is a good choice. You can snap up some great hotel deals by clubbing together and booking early. Try the five-star Aqua Montagut hotel, located a mere 150 metres from the beach in Santa Sussana. It’s just 30-minutes from Girona airport and 77k from Barcelona, making it ideal for a spot of dual-city sightseeing. Pay a visit to the cute town of Cadaqués, close to the French border, which has attracted the likes of Salvador Dali, Piccasso and Joan Miró – an inspiring (possibly even educational) trip that’ll keep the folks at home sweet too. Other coastal towns worth a visit include Tamariu, LLafranc, Calonge and Begur. Go-it-alone Greece Whether you’ve got funds for a month of island hopping or want to cram as much fun as humanly possible into seven days, Greece is a fail-safe choice for cutting loose. holidays in Zante are great for guaranteed fun, sun and late-night high-jinx. Hotel prices vary, and start with the more modest Cosmopolitan apartments in Tsilivi, where a twin room will set you back under £100 each if you book for August now. At the other end of the scale there’s the Galaxy Hotel, a beachfront stunner on the outskirts of the Laganas, which costs around £350 per person per week.
