Everything You Need to Know About easyJet Holidays' All-Inclusive Collection
Introduction: The All-Inclusive Revolution
There is a reason all-inclusive holidays have become one of the most popular formats in the package holiday market: they solve a problem that every traveller has encountered. You arrive at your destination relaxed and excited. Within 24 hours, the calculations begin. How much did last night's dinner cost? What about the cocktails by the pool? The excursion, the water sports, the ice creams, the nightcap — the mental arithmetic of tracking spending on holiday is exhausting, and it quietly undermines the very relaxation you travelled to achieve.
An all-inclusive holiday removes that calculation entirely. You pay once, before you travel, and when you arrive at your resort the food, drinks, and entertainment are already yours. The pool bar is free. The buffet breakfast, lunch, and dinner are included. The live evening entertainment, the snacks between meals, the coffee at 11am — all of it is covered. What you have, in effect, is the freedom to enjoy your holiday without thinking about money at all, and that freedom is worth considerably more than the modest premium that the all-inclusive board basis typically costs over a bed and breakfast or half-board alternative.
easyJet holidays' all-inclusive collection in 2025 is one of the most extensive available to British travellers, spanning destinations from Turkey and Spain to Greece, Egypt, Morocco, and Tunisia, with hotel quality ranging from comfortable three-star resorts to magnificent five-star properties where the all-inclusive offer extends to premium drinks, spa access, and specialist dining restaurants. This guide takes you through everything you need to know to choose and book the perfect all-inclusive holiday through easyJet holidays in 2025.
What Does All-Inclusive Actually Include?
The phrase 'all-inclusive' covers a broader spectrum of offering than many travellers realise, and understanding the differences between levels of all-inclusive provision will help you choose the right hotel for your expectations.
Standard All-Inclusive
At the standard level, an all-inclusive package covers three meals a day — typically buffet breakfast, buffet lunch, and buffet dinner — along with soft drinks, local alcoholic beverages (beer, local wine, and house spirits), and snacks between meals. Standard all-inclusive properties will also typically include daytime animation programmes and evening entertainment. This level of provision represents excellent value for most travellers and is the format found across the majority of easyJet holidays' all-inclusive collection.
The buffet restaurants at standard all-inclusive hotels in Turkey, Spain, and Greece have improved dramatically in quality over the past decade. Gone are the days of lukewarm vats of anonymous food — the best standard all-inclusive buffets in 2025 feature live cooking stations, extensive salad and mezze selections, daily-changing menus that reflect local culinary traditions, and dessert spreads that would be at home in a quality restaurant. Turkish all-inclusive hotels are particularly notable in this regard, their kitchens consistently delivering a quality and variety of food that exceeds expectations at every price point.
All-Inclusive Plus
All-inclusive plus properties extend the standard offering to include premium and international branded drinks rather than just local equivalents, access to à la carte restaurants within the hotel (which are typically available by reservation and offer a more intimate dining experience than the main buffet), and sometimes additional inclusions such as non-motorised water sports, tennis court access, or mini golf. All-inclusive plus is available across a number of easyJet holidays' Turkish and Spanish resort properties and represents a meaningful step up in the holiday experience for a relatively modest additional cost.
Ultra All-Inclusive
At the premium end of the spectrum, ultra all-inclusive properties — found primarily in Turkey's five-star resort belt and in some of Egypt's most prestigious Red Sea hotels — offer an exceptionally comprehensive package. Premium brand spirits and cocktails are included around the clock. Multiple à la carte restaurants serving distinct cuisines are available every night with no reservation surcharges. In-room minibar stocking is included and replenished daily. Water sports may be fully included. Spa access or spa credits are part of the package. And the property's entertainment programme may extend to daily activities, sports coaching, and evening shows of genuine production quality.
Ultra all-inclusive at a five-star Turkish resort is genuinely one of the best value experiences available in international travel. The price per person for a week at a five-star ultra all-inclusive in Belek, including flights and transfers through easyJet holidays, competes directly with a week at a standard three-star hotel in Spain on a bed-and-breakfast basis — and delivers a dramatically superior experience in terms of accommodation quality, food, and inclusive value.
Turkey: The All-Inclusive Capital of the Mediterranean
If you are serious about all-inclusive holidays, Turkey is the destination that demands your attention. No country in the Mediterranean has built a resort industry more precisely calibrated to deliver the all-inclusive experience at the highest possible quality across every budget level, and the result is a holiday proposition that is extraordinarily hard to beat.
Belek: Five-Star All-Inclusive at Its Finest
Belek on Turkey's Turquoise Coast has established itself as the undisputed centre of premium all-inclusive tourism in the Mediterranean. The resort strip east of Antalya is home to a concentration of five-star all-inclusive hotels — including properties from Aska, Regnum, Concorde, Gloria, and Susesi — that set a standard for resort hospitality that few destinations anywhere in the world can match. These are enormous properties with multiple pools, private beach access, sports facilities that include tennis academies and football pitches, spa complexes of genuine scale and quality, and food and beverage operations that run across a dozen different restaurants and bars, all included in the all-inclusive package.
easyJet holidays' Belek programme for 2025 covers both the summer season and winter months — Antalya's mild climate makes it viable year-round — and the prices available for five-star all-inclusive weeks here are consistently among the best in the market. The easyJet holidays Best Price Guarantee applies, meaning that customers who find the same ATOL-protected holiday cheaper elsewhere will have the price beaten by £5 per person.
Marmaris, Icmeler and Side
Beyond Belek, Turkey's all-inclusive offer extends across a string of resort towns that each bring their own character to the experience. Marmaris, at the head of its deep pine-fringed bay, has a lively resort atmosphere and an all-inclusive hotel selection that covers the full quality range from value three-star to quality four-star properties. Side, with its extraordinary backdrop of Roman ruins and its long beach stretching into the distance, combines genuine historical interest with an excellent range of all-inclusive hotels. Icmeler, quieter than Marmaris and connected to it by a short dolmus ride, appeals to travellers seeking the all-inclusive format in a more relaxed setting.
Spain: All-Inclusive in the Sun
Spain's all-inclusive market has expanded significantly in recent years, driven by demand from British and northern European travellers who appreciate the format's simplicity. The Costa del Sol, the Costa Blanca, and the Balearic and Canary Islands all have strong all-inclusive offerings through easyJet holidays, though the format differs somewhat from what you find in Turkey.
Canary Islands All-Inclusive
The Canary Islands are the strongest market for all-inclusive holidays in Spain, and it is not hard to understand why. These are year-round resort destinations — particularly popular for winter sun — where the all-inclusive format allows families and couples to arrive, check in, and immediately begin relaxing without any logistical overhead. Tenerife's southern resorts, Gran Canaria's Maspalomas and Playa del Ingles areas, Lanzarote's Puerto del Carmen and Costa Teguise, and Fuerteventura's Corralejo and Jandia areas all have extensive all-inclusive hotel selections available through easyJet holidays.
Canarian all-inclusive hotels differ from Turkish equivalents in one important respect: the local restaurant scene is strong enough that many guests choose a bed-and-breakfast or half-board basis to allow evenings out in the town. This is a genuine consideration. If you are drawn to the Canaries by the landscape, the culture, and the food — particularly the excellent local fish and seafood — a bed-and-breakfast basis may actually serve you better than all-inclusive, because the best experiences of the destination are outside the hotel. All-inclusive works best in the Canaries for travellers whose priority is resort relaxation rather than destination exploration.
Mainland Spain and Balearics
On mainland Spain's Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca, all-inclusive hotels occupy a specific niche — they tend to be larger resort properties designed for families and groups, where the convenience and budget certainty of the format outweigh any desire to explore local restaurants. Benidorm on the Costa Blanca is the capital of all-inclusive Spanish resort holidays, its enormous hotels and year-round entertainment infrastructure making it one of the most consistently popular destinations in the easyJet holidays programme. In the Balearics, Majorca's Bay of Alcudia and Ibiza's more developed resort areas both have good all-inclusive options, though the overall concentration of all-inclusive properties is lower than in Turkey or the Canaries.
Greece: All-Inclusive on the Islands
Greece's all-inclusive market has grown considerably in recent years, driven partly by Turkish competition and partly by recognition that the format appeals to British families and couples who want the simplicity of an all-inclusive holiday combined with the extraordinary natural beauty and historical richness that Greece uniquely offers
Rhodes and Kos
Rhodes and Kos are the strongest markets for all-inclusive holidays in Greece, both islands having developed resort infrastructure sufficient to support the format while retaining the character and appeal that make Greek holidays so distinct. Rhodes in particular has a number of excellent five-star all-inclusive properties — including several within easy reach of both the extraordinary medieval old city and the island's finest beaches — that combine the convenience and value of the all-inclusive format with genuinely high-quality accommodation and food.
The all-inclusive hotels in Faliraki on the east coast of Rhodes and in Ixia near the capital offer good access to both the beach and the city, making them excellent bases for travellers who want to combine resort relaxation with some serious cultural exploration. Kos Town's all-inclusive properties sit alongside the island's castle and the famous plane tree of Hippocrates, giving them a setting of historical resonance that Turkish resort hotels, however luxurious, cannot replicate.
Crete and Corfu
Crete's all-inclusive offering is concentrated in the central north coast resort areas of Chersonissos and Malia, where a number of large resort hotels deliver the full range of all-inclusive amenities to a predominantly family market. For all-inclusive holidays in Crete, look for hotels with private beach access, multiple pool facilities, and kids' clubs — the best family-focused all-inclusive properties on the island tick all three boxes and deliver experiences that justify the island's exceptional reputation for family travel.
Corfu has a more limited all-inclusive selection than the larger Greek islands, but several excellent properties are available through easyJet holidays — particularly around the Kavos resort area in the south, which attracts groups and younger travellers, and around Sidari in the north, which is better suited to families. Corfu's extraordinary natural beauty and the sophistication of its old town make it a more interesting all-inclusive destination than many visitors anticipate.
Egypt: All-Inclusive on the Red Sea
Egypt's Red Sea resorts represent one of the most compelling all-inclusive propositions available anywhere in the easyJet holidays 2025 programme. The combination of five-star resort quality, extraordinary underwater environments, year-round warm sunshine, and prices that significantly undercut comparable experiences in Turkey or Greece makes Egypt a destination that delivers genuine value at the premium end of the all-inclusive market.
Hurghada's all-inclusive resort strip along the north coast road has several excellent five-star properties available through easyJet holidays — including the Jaz Casa Del Mar Beach and Jaz Mirabel Park — that offer the ultra all-inclusive format at prices that represent outstanding value by any measure. The Red Sea's diving and snorkelling opportunities mean that even guests who have no interest in leaving the hotel grounds can access an extraordinary natural experience simply by walking to the beach and entering the water.
Sharm el-Sheikh, at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula, offers a more developed resort environment with a stronger entertainment and nightlife infrastructure alongside its world-class diving. The all-inclusive hotels here — available from easyJet holidays with seven-night packages starting at very competitive prices including flights from multiple UK airports — are concentrated in the Naama Bay and Sharks Bay areas and deliver a resort experience calibrated for European travellers who know exactly what they want.
North Africa: Morocco and Tunisia
Morocco and Tunisia have developed strong all-inclusive resort sectors that attract British travellers seeking the format in more culturally distinctive settings than Turkey or Spain. The Jaz Tour Khalef in Tunisia, available through easyJet holidays at impressive prices for an all-inclusive five-star property, delivers both the resort experience and the opportunity to explore one of North Africa's most historically rich countries. Marrakesh in Morocco, available as an all-inclusive resort destination as well as a cultural city break, combines extraordinary traditional architecture, souks, and cuisine with modern resort hotel facilities.
All-Inclusive for Couples: Romance Without the Bill
All-inclusive holidays are often associated with families and groups, but the format works exceptionally well for couples too — particularly for those who want to prioritise relaxation and intimacy over exploration and restaurant-hunting. An adults-only all-inclusive resort offers something that few other holiday formats can match: a genuinely enclosed, peaceful environment where the only agenda is each other's company.
The adults-only all-inclusive hotels in easyJet holidays' 2025 collection are found primarily in Turkey, Spain's Balearic Islands, and Greece. These properties are designed specifically to create an atmosphere of calm sophistication — no children's entertainment programmes disrupting the pool environment, no family dining rooms, just well-designed spaces, attentive service, and the complete absence of any financial stress throughout the stay. For couples celebrating anniversaries, honeymoons, or simply taking a much-needed break from the pressures of everyday life, an adults-only all-inclusive delivers an environment that supports genuine relaxation.
The best adults-only all-inclusive properties for couples in Turkey include properties in the Bodrum and Antalya regions, where boutique-scale hotels with infinity pools, private coves, and refined à la carte dining create experiences that feel genuinely luxurious. In Greece, adults-only all-inclusive resorts in Crete and Rhodes offer the combination of extraordinary natural setting and comprehensive inclusive provision. And in Spain's Balearics, the evolution of Ibiza's hotel market has produced a number of sophisticated adults-only properties in the quieter north of the island where the all-inclusive format is combined with the island's distinctive laid-back elegance.
Booking Smart: Getting the Best All-Inclusive Deal
The all-inclusive format is at its most financially compelling when you book early enough to secure the best available price. Peak-season all-inclusive holidays — particularly in Turkey's premium resorts during July and August — sell out months in advance, and the prices available in January for a summer booking are typically significantly lower than those available in April or May for the same period. The easyJet holidays £60 per person deposit makes early booking financially accessible, and the Best Price Guarantee means there is no risk in committing early — if the price drops, it will be beaten.
Consider upgrading the board basis when the price difference is modest. Moving from standard all-inclusive to all-inclusive plus at a five-star Turkish resort often costs relatively little extra per person per night, but the difference in experience — premium drinks, à la carte dining options, additional activities included — can be transformative. At some properties, the all-inclusive plus supplement works out at less than the cost of a single round of premium drinks per day, making it straightforwardly good value for anyone who intends to drink anything other than the standard house selections.
The easyJet holidays programme allows filtering specifically by all-inclusive board basis across all destinations and budget levels. Using this filter alongside a destination choice, travel dates, and budget ceiling is the most efficient way to identify the best available all-inclusive options. The curated nature of the hotel collection — every property assessed for quality rather than simply listed by availability — means the results you see represent genuine quality at every price point, not the lowest-common-denominator options that algorithmically assembled programmes can default to.
Choosing the Right All-Inclusive for You
The most important decision in booking an all-inclusive holiday is matching the property to your priorities. Not all all-inclusive hotels are created equal, and understanding what you value most will help you navigate the easyJet holidays collection effectively.
If beach quality is your priority, prioritise hotels with private beach access over those that require a short transfer to a public beach. In Turkey and Egypt, the best all-inclusive resorts own or lease stretches of beach with sunbeds, watersports, and beach bars all within the hotel's all-inclusive provision. If food quality matters most, look at five-star properties with multiple à la carte restaurants — the difference between the buffet-only standard and a hotel with four or five specialist dining options is significant. If you are travelling with children, prioritise hotels with dedicated children's pools, structured kids' clubs, and evening animation programmes.
The value of the easyJet holidays hotel collection being curated rather than algorithmically assembled cannot be overstated in this context. Every hotel in the programme has been assessed for quality and suitability, and the filtering tools on the easyJet holidays website allow you to search specifically for all-inclusive properties within your destination and budget. The Best Price Guarantee ensures the price you pay is always the best available, and the £60 per person deposit means you can secure the perfect property without a large immediate financial commitment.
Conclusion: The Case for All-Inclusive in 2025
All-inclusive holidays through easyJet holidays in 2025 offer something that becomes more valuable the more you think about it: genuine peace of mind.

The destinations available, from Turkey's extraordinary five-star resort belt to Greece's island resorts, Spain's year-round Canaries, and the Red Sea's extraordinary underwater world, mean that an all-inclusive holiday in 2025 can take an enormous variety of forms. Whatever your preferred destination, your budget, and your idea of the perfect holiday week, easyJet holidays has assembled an all-inclusive collection to match. Book early, use the Best Price Guarantee, and pay in the instalments that work for your budget — and then look forward to a holiday where the only decision you need to make is whether to start at the beach or the pool.
