Fifteen nights in Sri Lanka with return flights and all-inclusive board for £962 each is a lot of holiday for under £1,000. Mercury Holidays is showing that price for Pandanus Beach Resort and Spa in Induruwa, leaving Manchester in September.
The checked example is for two adults on 23 September 2026. The Mercury listing showed 15 nights, return flights, all-inclusive board and a 4-star hotel with a 4.5 TripAdvisor rating. For a beach stay that stretches past two weeks, the sub-£1,000 price is the reason this works.
The booking page also showed Manchester, September 2026, 15 nights, two guests and all-inclusive board when we clicked through from the live deal card. No fixed end date was shown for this specific 2nd Week Free listing when checked on 17 July, so treat the price as live inventory rather than a guaranteed long-running fare.
London also works if Manchester is not useful. Mercury was showing the same 23 September departure from Gatwick at £1,080 each, while Heathrow had September all-inclusive dates from £1,098 each when checked on 17 July. Those are not quite as cheap as Manchester, but they are still decent for a 15-night Sri Lanka beach holiday with flights.
How to book
Go through the Mercury Holidays listing and check the Pandanus Beach Resort and Spa result for 23 September. If the card has moved, use the filters for Manchester, September 2026, 15 nights and all-inclusive board.
