MADRID, September 19, 2025 — Seniors across Spain are preparing for another round of budget-friendly travel opportunities as the Instituto de Mayores y Servicios Sociales (Imserso) confirms its 2025–2026 holiday program. Popular destinations such as Benidorm, Málaga, Mojácar, Fuengirola, Torremolinos, and Lloret de Mar will be available for less than 300 euros, continuing a tradition that has been running for over two decades.
Background
The Imserso initiative, funded in part by the Spanish government, was created to provide older citizens with subsidized holiday options, encouraging social participation and promoting tourism in the low season. Each year, thousands of seniors book beach getaways, cultural circuits, and inland tours at prices significantly below market value.

“We are committed to ensuring seniors have access to quality travel at affordable rates. This program not only enriches their lives but also supports local economies in coastal towns,” said an Imserso spokesperson.
“For less than 300 euros, retirees can enjoy a full holiday package including accommodation, meals, and entertainment. It’s a social lifeline for many who might otherwise not afford to travel,” added representatives from the Asociación de Jubilados de España.
Demand & Next Steps
Last season, Imserso received close to 400,000 applications for its travel packages, underscoring the popularity of the program. Authorities have announced that pricing will remain stable for 2025–2026, despite inflationary pressures. The official list of destinations and detailed itineraries is expected to be released in the coming months.
With applications set to open later this year, senior citizens are already preparing to secure spots in the program, especially for the highly sought-after coastal destinations.
