In a new study conducted by Kinglike Concierge, the 20 most affordable European countries for Americans seeking a luxurious vacation in 2025 have been revealed. Their European Budget Luxury Travel Index highlights destinations where travelers can indulge in 5-star experiences without breaking the bank.
At the top of the list is Greece, with an average cost of $1,329 for a week-long stay for one person. While popular spots like Mykonos and Athens can be expensive, the study found that exploring lesser-known areas can offer more affordable 5-star accommodations. Following closely are Spain and Germany, both priced at $1,529 per person per week.
Turkey stands out for its exceptionally low accommodation costs, at just $330 per week, and for its affordable spa treatments, which average $22 per session. For those seeking Michelin-star dining at a bargain, Malta leads the way at $133 per person.
'This study shows how affordable luxury can be in certain parts of Europe, particularly in destinations like Greece, Spain, and Germany,' said Thanasis Mougios, luxury travel expert at Kinglike Concierge.
