Benidorm Reviews

A few weeks ago, a couple of mates and I booked an exceptionally last minute deal - the day before - to go to the Valencian coastal town of Benidorm for four nights. It cost us just shy of £300 each for flights, transfers, accommodation and all-inclusive food, drink and facilities at the Flamingo Hotel. While we didnt actually stay at ...  Read the complete review

Benidorm Medieval nights. This is a fantastic trip, some hotels offer it free when you book a package holiday. We stayed in the tropicana gardens (magic monkia now) hotel and got the trip included. We stayed all inclusive for two weeks. The hotel hires a taxi to take you to the 'Castle', it is quite grand there is a moat around the ...  Read the complete review

Benidorm is so popular with the brits that you can barely hear spanish being spokken! Benidorm has a long row of skyscrapers the tallest being the grand bali hotel which is the tallest in europe. the tourist industry in benidorm continues year round, due to the warm climate and varied night-life which happens in over 200 bars ...  Read the complete review

I wouldn't rate Benidorm as one of my favourite places to go! Maybe it has got better recently, with any luck but I was there a few years ago and it was pretty nasty! If you're about 18 and don't really care where you are it's maybe ok. There's plenty of tacky 'restaurants' where you are guaranteed an all day fry and endless repeats of only ...  Read the complete review

I went to Benidorm in February 08 and was really quite surprised! I before I went people had told me that it was like Blackpool but with sun but it is so much nicer than Blackpool! The week we arrived Benidorm had had lovely weather for a couple of weeks but this changed when we got there, it wasnt cold but it was very windy and grey. Despite this ...  Read the complete review

Benidorm? Blackpool in the sun yes or no? Well for me the first time I went to Benidorm was in November 2008. We have always put it off because off what as been said about it and what we have heard. But money was tight and we wanted somewhere cheap and cheerful and Benidorm fitted the bill. We stayed in apartments ...  Read the complete review

Benidorm is Great The first thing i noticed was the beach it was fantastic! There are loads of Spanish and English bars everywhere. You can never get bored there is always something to do! (Theme Parks Water Parks Shopping etc...)

The Old Town is Great for shopping - It is Worth a visit.
Poniente is very Quiet - But has a great Beach.

La Cala Finestrat is the Friendliest place by far. I Would definaltly Reccomend going to the Friday market for a day out. There is also a great bar there called the BAY VIEW it has the best menu around. It is also one of the nicest beaches around.

Overall Benidorm is great but it can get to busy and at night the clubs can get very loud - Other places away from benidorm are worth a visit if you need a bit more peace!

i went to benidorm last year with my boyfried and his family and my two year old and had a great time. It was lively enough for adults but children were welcomed and catered for in many places, don panchos in particular provides enetertainment for children with a clown, dancing games and an arcade area. there are also plenty of night clubs and ...  Read the complete review

I lived in Benidorm for two years of my life, and I found the place excellent. 99% of the time, the weather is hot. It isn't so much as hot that you can't breathe as soon as you go outside, but hot as in you can handle it. The shops/pubs/clubs/restuarants are all great, and there are plenty of English pubs there. ...  Read the complete review

I have been to Benidorm (situated in the province of Alicante in Costa Blanca) twice now with my boyfriend Paul.

Earlier this year (2002) my fiancée and I were due to attend one of my best friend's wedding to his Spanish partner in a small town south of Valencia. Work has been very scarce lately for both my fancée and me, so we decided to go with some other friends as a group of 6 with accommodation being allocated on arrival as it was very ...  Read the complete review

Booking holidays is a stressful affair. It gets even more taxing when there's a group of you who all want different things from the holiday destination. At around November last year, My Friends and I (look mum - real good grammar!) decided that rather than get drunk at home or in our local pub, we would pay someone to fly us somewhere sunny and ...  Read the complete review

WELCOME TO BENIDORM! I went to Benidorm again this year for our annual holiday. This was our second visit. We went there for our honeymoon in 1999 and enjoyed it so much that we just HAD to go back. I don't think it will be our last visit either - there's so much more for us to experience! WHERE IS BENIDORM? ...  Read the complete review

Myself and my partner decided to go to Benidorm because it was cheap. As we were on a budget, so the cost was prime consideration. I know Benidorm had a reputation for being a "dive", but had heard that it was getting better from other people who had been. They were wrong. Whilst i had my fair share of fun times in Benidorm the ...  Read the complete review

I have to admit, I had heard some awful things about Benidorm before we went......I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and was so glad I did. Ok, ok I know Benidorm is the most cheesy place on earth but I think that this is its main appeal!! I went with my sister and a couple of friends and we all had a great time!! I went for ...  Read the complete review

Benidorm is a strange place. I can say with honesty that I never want to visit the town again. It's as a very odd atmosphere in which you find yourself in a hot version of England. The Spanish seem like second class citizens (they are not!). The tiny bits of Spain that I saw underneath the English shroud were superb. I highly recommend ...  Read the complete review

Last summer we went to Benidorm for a 2 week holiday with Thompson. Although we had an overnight flight, it was well worth it. Our hotel was like an apartment block, and was decent enough. There was a swimming pool in every hotel in the area, which were great fun. The beach was about 5 minutes walk and was great. It was a long stretch of ...  Read the complete review
