BENIDORM HOLIDAY REVIEWS
Benidorm
It may be a little too much for some tastes, but there is no doubt that a holiday in Benidorm, the resort north of Alicante on Spain’s east coast, ticks all the boxes for the beach holiday brigade, and then some. Three miles (5 km) of sandy beach are lined with high-rise apartment blocks thatmore

Cameron & David - A Great time for all... no matter what age - Cameron & David. Date of travel: Oct 2007
The best place to be in Benidorm if you're gay is the Old Town, and one of the best bars is Infinity Open from 10pm till 4.30. the staff, Nev, Shell and craig are so welcoming. The drinks are the cheapest and shots are free. There are no English lager louts in the area because they know it's a gay area so you always feel safe. If you're a little prudish you may want to stay away from Peoples bar and Lovers in the same area. Gay Hardcore porn plays through-out. Not a place to take the parents. But if you like that kinda thing Yyu'll love it. Bye the way to go to the toilets you must go through the dark rooms, except in Infinity.
If you head into the new town the place to be there is Morgans Tavern otherwise known as Neptunes Bar in ITV's Benidorm programme. The staff are great and service is fast. The only downside is it gets very busy get there before 9. The other is the acts don't change throughout the week of your stay. The usual line-up is 9pm Cherout (So Called Scottish Comedian) to be honest, he's awful. 10pm The Soul Family Featuring Carlos, Valerie and Stephani. 11pm The Queen of Comedy and award winning actress Crissy Rock, now this is a fab show not to be missed. The entertainment plays until 2am. if you hear of the Micheal Jackson magic show while there give him a wide berth...awful.
Great place - Pam and John. Date of travel: Oct 2007

Benidorm Nightlife - Gemma Welsh Girl. Date of travel: Sep 2007
The Square is the best for lively nights out with plenty of booze and drunken Brits (not always a good thing). Some great dance clubs around the Square, our favourite was the Bahamas. We also loved Cafe Benidorm, the staff are so great. But if you're not looking for mad nights then there are plenty of artists & comedians in Benidorm to entertain you and only a short walk away from the Perla. Look out for Matthew & Son at Valentines and the Westlife Tribute, these are FAB!! Hiya to Jose, Manuel & Matthew & Son.

Just Help Yourself!!! - Deb & Kez. Date of travel: Sep 2007
Benidorm is fabulous. Yes, it is a bit like Blackpool but you can have as lively or as quiet a time as you like. There are some tacky shops and a few beggars about but on the whole it is fabulous. The beaches are clean and well maintained and the sea shallow. The square is the place to be of an evening, but look out for the other bars on the way up to the square - there are some good ones. Full of Brits enjoying themselves - anything goes!!! The atmosphere is good everywhere. Look out for the chap who does the Meatloaf tribute - he is excellent. You will find him at Jokers most nights about 11pm. Also the chap who sounds excatly like Tom Jones, Shaun Connolly - he has the most incredible voice and is very easy on the eye as well!!!

Yorkshire Pride - Pete. Date of travel: Sep 2007
My wife and I were in Benidorm 25th september for 1 week and stayed in the old town. On the second morning we were lucky to find the Yorkshire Pride. What a great place. Good food, lovely staff, and after the last meal is served (around 10.00pm ) a great band onstage. And the prices are good. Find this place you will not be disappointed.

Nighlife - Becki. Date of travel: Sep 2007
The nightlife in Benidorm was buzzing and that was just in the English square. Walking down to the square there's all your pubs which is karaoke and football, mainly all little English bars like the Yorkshire Pride or the Tavern. The square is where all the typical teens go i.e myself. Nearer to the beach front you've got bars and a club called KM Playa that opens in the day and serves food but at night it turns into a proper nightclub. You have to be careful though of beggers they're a bit intimidating at some pionts. And lucky, lucky men who will try and flog you copies sunglasses or fake gold necklaces. The good thing about Benidorm is its friendly atmosphere and it's never quite its full of fun. And the views are spectacular, the beach is lovely. I can't think of any bad piont really, only if you want a family holiday and you have young children maybe stick to the beach front or the old town and new town just not the square... And anyone of those who wanna go for the clubs.The Square is the place (The Hippodrom, Bahamas, Champion, Chaplins, Rolling Stones, Beachcomber, Cafe Benidorm) Bit of advise though, don't go to the square till about 10pm, thats when it all happens. I cant see why people say it's like Blackpool only reason is for us English. 1 thing if you want Spain, never go to Benidorm!!!
Benidorm is great - Sam and Nic and Jan. Date of travel: Sep 2007
Always go to Benidorm as have family there. Its nightlife is fantastic, especially the Westlife tribute band in Morgan's tavern, the square is great for young dancers. Beach is lovely and clean all year round, good bar for the older generation is SAXO bar on Calle Londres in Levante area, friendly staff open all year round, and drinks are cheaper than most other bars, and be sure to check under the dolls skirt in the ladies toilet.
Benidorm is great!!! - Alexia. Date of travel: Sep 2007
I think Benidorm is a great place full of fun and lots to do. The beaches are beautiful. there are some brilliant cabaret clubs - Jason Kane is a must see and the Take That tribute are good. Westlife in the Morgans Tavern are really good but watch out for the Irish guy Liam he thinks he is cassanova and gods gift to women!!!!

Benidorm - Pat Morgan. Date of travel: Sep 2007
I have been going to Benidorm on a regular basis for about 25 years. It has changed enormously in that time. It has become more tourist aware which has proved to be a good thing. I don't know of anywhere else you could go on holiday and have such a huge variety of entertainment at your disposal. You can choose to be entertained or alternatively there are super bars where you can have a quiet drink and a chat. It is inexpensive to eat out. The beach is fantastic, with great facilities for young and old. I always manage to spend at least one week of my holiday in Benidorm, which you are able to do because there is a big range of inexpensive accommodation available. This coupled with the cheap flights you can get makes it an affordable holiday, whether it's your main one or an extra one you squeeze in.

Such a variation - Vickz & family. Date of travel: Sep 2007
I have travelled to Benidorm 15 times and never had a bad experience, been in 2 star self catering and 4 star hotels and all very clean and excellent standard, the new town is typically British, expect your happy hours karaokes, cabarets, tribute acts and comedians, along with your traditional British cafes and restaurants, however, not all of Benidorm is like this, walk along the mediterraneo into the old town and you will feel like you are in 2 different places, the old town is very relaxed where you can ejoy the spanish way of life, enjoy their cuisine, culture and live like the locals, just sit in a cafe/bar watching the world go by. New town hotel reccommendations would be the marina, the presidente and the calypso, however if you like the sound of the old town but still want easy reach of the new town I would definitely recommend the madeira centro or the victoria, both are Thomson hotels, 4/5 star but definitely worth it. Don't mock bendiorm till you try it.

Around and about Albir and Benidorm - Tracy and Family. Date of travel: Aug 2007
We visted the Benidorm Palace with the showgirls, comedians and other acts - this is very good but I recommend that you do not eat there if you have children as there is not much of a choice. This is a very late night so have a wee nap in the afternoon! Visit TeraNatura and AquaNutura as this is good value for money. Get a taxi as you need to catch 2 buses and it is not good with young children in the blistering heat. Benidorm market is a must for bargain hunters. Handbags, shoes and silver jewellery. Be careful of your wallets and purses as there are pick pockets about. The beach in Benidorm is massive and very clean. Nightlife is buzzing in Benidorm so be careful if you have teenagers with you because the people handing flyers out by pass the parents and go straight to the teenagers and we had two 14 year old girls with us and they said that they would get served in the bars and nightclubs!!

The Rio Park is on what is known as the yellow brick road which is ok, going down but a bit of a struggle if you are an older person. As much as we liked Benidorm we found it what we would called more or less the Blackpool of Costa Blanca, and we thought it was cramped by the skyscrapper hotels and holiday apartments.

Benidorm - great for the disabled! - Jean Brookes. Date of travel: Jun 2007
I had a great holiday in Benidorm - the promenades are brilliant for a wheelchair user, and more and more cafes and bars are becoming 'disabled friendly'. There are even buses and taxis that you can get your wheelchair in, and I had a super airport transfer from Rob in his minibus - I didn't even have to get out of my wheelchair!!!

I was brill I loved evry minute of it and would return now if I could. There is loads to do in the day an loads of wierd but entertaining things at night.

The theme park is also good as is the water park. The beach is also the nicest one I have seen and there's always something going on down there. It's great for all ages. Tour Operator: First Choice

Benidorm - Steve Griffiths. Date of travel: Jun 2006
Benidorm is everything you expect. 1- Emptied council estates dressed in the cheapest sports wear. 2- Disgusting looking English bars that sell food, with condiments that are crusty, and happy shopper (these are refiled with cheap Spanish sources - just to spoil the illusion for you). 3- The beach is nice til you get in the water and realise its mostly rocks and shallow so you cant really swim. 4 - We play a game on how many Brits we see sunburnt - I won this year. 5- Tacky, useless Chinese shops that put todo todo to shame. 6- Moaning Brits "the Spanish are so rude!" Well the Spanish don't share our manners & we are in Spain! 7- You are more likely to get robbed by the Brits than anyone else. Spanish are very civilised by comparison. 8- However I really enjoyed our relaxing time in the hotel Nadal and will book for next year.

The Bali Hotel is situated in the quieter part of Benidorm but there is a massive Supermarket dead opposite and plenty of little Brit pubs around. The Pheasant plucker is right behind the Bali. I would recommend this part for the older crowd who don't want constant loud noise from the busy Levante or couples with young kids or couples who just want a relaxing time. The added advantage is you can go to the Bright Lights of Levante but always escape to the Quieter parts as taxis are cheap enough.

My friend and I recently returned from Benidorm and miss it soooo much!! Being young and active we made extreme use of the pool and sunbeds in our lovely 4 star hotel, which had excellent service and was fantastically clean. We spent all of our nights in the wild and vibrant bars, such as the Hyppadome, RED DOG (the bar tender was lush), champiions, bahamas etc. Very accommodating to English, although BE VERY CAREFUL AT NIGHT NOT TO WALK ALONE. THERE ARE LOTS OF DANGEROUS ROMANIANS WHO AIM TO MUG AND STEAL PASSPORTS. despite this......Highly recommended location for all ages, as there are loads of family catering hotels and resorts. LOOOOOVVEDD IT SOOOOO much we are returning there again in July!!!!! BRRAAAPP!!! Tour Operator: First Choice

Hi: we were a party of 5 adults staying at the Moby Dick which I booked myself through the internet. Myself and my husband have been to Benidorm 10 times. This time we decided to take a few friends. We all had a fab time: so much to do for all ages, nice clean resort and beaches. Small friendly bar to large nite clubs. We all had a great time at Cafe B, suitable for all ages young and the not so young! Plenty of all round entertainment. More suitable for the younger end in June, July and August.

Hi: we were a party of 5 adults staying at the Moby Dick which I booked myself through the internet. Myself and my husband have been to Benidorm 10 times. This time we decided to take a few friends. We all had a fab time: so much to do for all ages, nice clean resort and beaches. Small friendly bar to large nite clubs. We all had a great time at Cafe B, suitable for all ages young and the not so young! Plenty of all round entertainment. More suitable for the younger end in June, July and August. We do prefer to go April then again in November for the festival. If you have not been to Benidorm I suggest you give it a go. The holiday at Benidorm is what you want to make it, quiet or lively.

I find Benidorm very relaxing this time of year, Nov/Dec, it is more suitable for the older people as its not too busy, and the prices seem to be a lot cheaper than in the summer. There are pubs where you can get a pint of beer for 40p through the day and 1 euro at night. There are a few of the night clubs closed but they do open in time for Christmas, but there is still plenty of shows to see so why not try it. Tour Operator: Thompson

Benidorm is GREAT - Kirsty-Louise Ross & Bournemouth college of Travel and Tourism. Date of travel: Sep 2005
I thought that Spain was an amazing experience the beaches where lovely clear sand with no litter and the water was such a pure colour. The night life in spain was great for those who enjoy staying out until silly hours of the morning, all the staff in the clubs are really friendly. Shopping in Benidorm is amazing for your money. There is so much to do i only saw Benidorm Old Town and the night life but i really enjoyed my time in spain. Tour Operator: Thomas Cook

Went to Benidorm 3rd time and I still love it. The beaches are lovely. The hotel were we stayed in was great, Rio Park, we stay there all the time. The staff are so helpful and nice, the food's great too. I loved the square at night. My favourite bar was Charles bar;the only downside was that the comedians were still doing the same act from two years ago, but one entertainer puts on a fabulous show every year and something different: Mr Martin Kent. So all in all great. Going again next year. Another bar that deserves a mention is the Benidorm cafe: the waiters are brill and it caters for young and old and you can catch some good entertainers there. Tour Operator: Thompsons

When we arrived a the the reception people where very helpful. There were 24 of us: 13 adults and 11 children. The apartments are very small. There is no airconditioning. We were told by other people staying there that the big apartments had the aircon and they where kept for the Spanish so you had to rent a fan off of them which is 18 euros but down the road in the hardware you can buy one similar for 17-22 euros. The bar closes at 12.30: there are only 2 bars across the road that are opened and they are not great. The apartment bar has a lot of things on for kids, but in the kiddies club it was all Spanish kids and the leaders were talking Spanish most of the time. Tour Operator: Budget Travel

I go to Benidorm every year, in July. I am single and feel realy safe here. The people are down to earth. They could not be more helpful.

I will be going to Benny for years to come. Tour Operator: Thomas Cook

I have read some of your reviews and they are very informative. But I must say that the review of Benidorm is slightly offputting to say the least. There are at least two distinct areas of Benidorm: the New Town and the Old Town. The lager louts usually stick to 'the Square' in the New town, which is a small area with nightclubs such as Cafe Benidorm, Hippadrome etc. The Old Town is a mini mecca for gay tourists in the high season with many gay bars all located in a small area of the narrow streets in the Old Town. This area is totally free of lager louts in the evening. The gay bars are open to about 4am. After that there are mixed clubs further up Levante Beach, such as the Underground, which is ususally about 50% gay late in the morning. Also in the summer there are even more huge Ibiza style clubs on 'the top road' such as Ku, KM, Space and Pacha (to name but a few). KM is huge and has it's own gay bar within the club.

Reading some of the comments some people's views on Benidorm are different. I think there is no better place than Benidorm. I go into the old town where there are many gay bars and being straight you are made to feel welcome; you can drink until the early hours of the morning with no hassle or trouble. I go to Benidorm with my parents and they also really enjoy the old town; they even go to all the gay bars; they love it, they feel safe and secure. I go to Benidorm at least 4 times a year either for a weekend or a week's holiday. I feel going to Benidorm is like going out to the local where everyone knows each other and look after each other. The old town is a very safe place to go out at night whatever your age. Tour Operator: self arranged

Benidorm has one of the cleanest beaches I have been to. I admit the hotels are very high rise, however the standard of hygiene and the quality of service and food is excellent. There is something for everyone. Late night clubs and bars, entertainment bars with karaoke, comediens, singers and plenty of family friendly bars. I have been here with my young family and they loved it. I have also been with just my husband and we had a totally different holiday alltogether! Staying out till past 4am!! If you visit Benidorm you must take time to go to the Benidorm Palace, where for 35 euros you have an evening of various entertainment with a 5 course meal that is out of this world. All in all Benidorm has something to suit all needs. Try it! Tour Operator: THOMSONS

I lived in Benidorm for six years: it is the most amazing place I have ever been 2 in my life and I go on holiday 3 times a year with my family at all different destinations. The beach is cleaned every night. People on the square are just after fun. I should know, I went there every other night. People are saying the place is dirty. The Spanish are cleaner than English will ever be and take more pride in themselves. The food is amazing; the people are lovely, apart from the old people (they hate the English but you only realy see them at 6 oclock at night going to church). I would advise anyone thats thinking of going on holiday to visit Benidorm. Tour Operator: Easy jet

Benidorm is a good place for a holiday but the resort is basically like Blackpool in the sun. It has a great beach but is blotted by high rise appartments and hotels. There are loads of pubs and clubs which are packed in June, July and August when the weather is the best (around 30'C), if you go there outside the peak season the resort is packed with OAPs. The weather is usually fairly good until the end of November. If you want to get away from the crowds in the resort hire a car and drive to Valencia - it's a really pretty city and has some good restaurants. All in all Benidorm is a great place for a holiday but its not the destination for a quiet get away - more for your holidaymakers on the piss. It also quite cheap with cheap flights from budget airlines and good deals on hotels. Tour Operator: Thompson

Wicked- tacky but fun. - Charlie. Date of travel: Aug 2004
I went to Benidorm for 2 weeks a couple of years ago with a group of 6 girls and it was the best girly clubbing holiday ever -I've been to Tenerife, Magaluf, Kavos and (most recently) Malia since and let me tell you none of them compare to Benidorm - I'm going back next summer and I cannot wait. If ya looking for great nightlife then Benidorm's the place. The theme park, water park and sea world were all wicked too so there's plenty to do during the day to keep you amused - there are also some great shops in the Old Town. The beach is fantastic - a bit crowded but its very clean and well kept and there are plenty of water sports to keep you entertained- we hired a pedalo and it was a right laugh - basically if ya a up for fun then you can't fail to have a wicked time in Benidorm.

Benidorm is a 24 hour resort with the entertainment going on into the small hours. The white sand beach and clear blue sea streatches forever. The very British feel of the resort makes it feel like home from home, and with more English bars than u can imagine you will probably find more British people than Spanish. The shopping is plentiful covering all tastes and budgets. While there it's well worth a trip to Mundamar, a marine park with excellent dolphine and sea lion shows, and only 10 mins from the resort centre. With a bar and resturant to cover all tastes from kareoke to comedian its a perfect resort for those looking for a thigh slapping, toe tapping good time. Tour Operator: Thompson

For me Benidorm is the most magical place on earth, and not just because it was my first ever trip to the Continent. My boyfriend Neil decided to treat me to the holiday and he could not have done anything better. From the minute we arrived at the airport I felt I was in an exotic foreign place where even the air was different (much hotter of course). We were picked up in a bus by a rep from our holiday company and taken to a wonderful hotel. The first morning I thought I was dreaming when we went out and walked on the prom to have breakfast in an amazing restaurant where the waiters could hardly speak English and I had dessert for breakfast! Spanish ice cream is hevenly and a fraction of what it costs at home. The most amazing thing was hearing so many different langages and accents around us. The first day I got bad sunburn and I must say I felt the heat a bit. There is so much to do in Benidorm it is scary. The best is swimming in the pool. The hotel we stayed in had two. You can do all sorts of water sport like skiing and diving and paragliding. I really enjoyed the sea too which is shallow for some way out from the beach and you can see the bottom. The beaches are very clean. We went on boat trips to Altea, a market town, Peacock Island, and Calpe, a fisihing village. The scenery was fantastic. It is great to go shopping and easy to get lost in the maze of streets full of shops with wonderful things, all cheaper than at home. Other great things we did was go to Aqualandia the waterpark, and Mundomar, a marine animal park where I got my photo taken with a real live dolphin. The only bad things I can say about Benidorm is that there are no public toilets and there are lots of hills and steep paths that make it hard on the feet if you are walking.

I enjoyed my two week stay in Benidorm. The night life was full of fun (don't get any touts or street sellers) the hotel (Rio Park) was like Butlins, full of english ppl and english food. I recommend in peak season to hire a fan as no fan in the rooms. And they get very hot depending which way your facing but very clean (cleaners very friendly). The beach is very nice however, the water is full of very sharp rocks, me and my friends got out of the water and our feet were bleeding (nasty). The only bad thing about the holiday is the time it takes to get to the hotel from the airport. It doesnt matter about the high rise hotels, you don't go on holiday to moan about that! You go to have laugh! Plus ive been to lots of popular destinations and this has got to be the cleanest, and i never saw 1 cockroach! Tour Operator: thomson
