Benidorm

Advantages: plenty to do, sun, sea
Disadvantages: no disadvantages

...For my honeymoon last July we wemt to Benidorm and it was the best holiday that we have had had. I'd go back there again. There are people of all ages there, and things to do for everyone. You would never be bored of things to do. Benidorm is split in to two parts, the old town and the new town. The old town is where the locals live and is quieter and the new town is where the tourists go and is very lively. We stayed in the new town but did go to the old town a few times. There is a theme park called terra mittica, where there are quite a few rides to go on. This theme park opened last summer. The theme park is in sections and named after different countries. There are different rides for adults and children. There is a rollercoaster which I did not go on as I do not like them, waterlog, a ride like the pepsi max at Blackpool...

Review of Benidorm (Spain)

*On Holiday.........in Benidorm!!*

Advantages: Funny!
Disadvantages: None!

...I had heard of the ITV television programme Benidorm before but hadn't watched it , until recently when the third series was showing , and my mum who is a fan of the show and has watched every episode told me how good it was. So , one friday evening a few weeks back , I decided to put ITV1 On and see what all the fuss was about! After only watching that particular episode for a couple of minutes ; I was really enjoying it , and found myself laughing a lot! I couldn't believe why I had refused to watch it before ; it was just my kind of programme! Since the series ended a couple of weeks back , I decided I wanted to see the first two series too. So I bought Benidorm : Series 1. For those of you who don't know , Benidorm is a comedy-drama television programme , based on the popular-with-working-class-folk holiday destination...

The Flamingo Benidorm Hotel

Advantages: All Inclusive, Plenty Of Entertainment
Disadvantages: Lots Of Kids

...I recently stayed at the Flamingo Benidorm Hotel in Benidorm, Spain for 7 nights between the 17th and 24th October 2006. LOCATION The Hotel is located about 800 metres inland from Levante Beach, and about the same distance from the Old Town. It is set in one of the quieter parts of the resort on a slight incline. It is not to be confused with two other Hotels in Benidorm that have similar names; The Flamingo Oasis Benidorm and the Flamingo Aparthotel. The address of the hotel where I stayed is as below: Flamingo Benidorm C.

Review of Flamingo Benidorm Hotel

  If you have never been to Benidorm before

Advantages: lovely scenery, places to visit, warm temp, lots to do
Disadvantages: slippery downhill marble paths, READ MY BUYER BEWARE OP

...?Then you will have by the time you?ve finished reading this opinion? I love writing about my travels, so I hope you will enjoy reading this opinion, as much as I will enjoy writing it. If you need any more information about Benidorm once you?ve read this, then feel free to leave a message in my guest book. I have been to Benidorm (situated in the province of Alicante in Costa Blanca) twice now with my boyfriend Paul. The first time I went was on 11th September 2001, so as you have perhaps guessed ? many of the planes were delayed. This was my first time out of the UK too, so the longer we had to wait, the more nerve-racking it got. I had always wondered what it would be like in an aeroplane, thousands of feet up in the air, the huge drop to the ground below, wispery, transparent clouds rushing by unknowingly, the sound...

Review of Benidorm (Spain)

Benidorm

Advantages: Usually fine weather
Disadvantages: Can be rather cold

...Benidorm is what you make it! As an acknowledged venue for excellent climate the town itself can be either a bore after the first few days or a delight to explore further. Like most people I headed for the entertainment venues on Levante Beach and was amazed at how different the area is between the daytime and the nightime. During the day the front is a hive of activity with people walking constantly up and down the beautiful promenade. The beach is very clean although you must get used to walking into the bars to use the loos. The food is exceptionally cheap and the Chinese restaurants are probably the best for service and quality of food. The night scene can be a little disappointing. I was working in the bars presenting my cabaret act so I can tell you there were many seedy bars that I preferred to keep away from. The classiest bar in...

Review of Hotel Flamingo Oasis, Benidorm

The Simplicity of the Nokia 3500 Classic.

Advantages: A SImple easy to use mobile phone. Great 2MP Camera
Disadvantages: Phone bills.

...I must say owning a mobile phone now a days has become an essential necessity for most, I dare leave home without it and thankfully gone are the days of carrying 10p's or 20p's in your pockets for the red telephone box. 'Nokia 3500 Classic'------------------------------------------- I have owned a few mobile phones in my time, which include a Motorola,Philips, and now the 'Nokia 3500 Classic' which I've had for just over a year now.. Firstly may I point out that the 'Nokia 3500 Classic' is an extremely well made,robust mobile phone, just.the feel and touch of it shouts out quality. On most modern up-to-date mobile phones now there's usually more features than the average pay-as-you-go user like myself could possibly need such as Bluetooth, ,MP3 player,Video recorder,3G etc but having said that the 2 MP (mega Pixel...

December in Benidorm

Advantages: An All inclusive hotel with unusually large rooms and balconies.
Disadvantages: Sun loungers around the pool do not have mattresses.

...December 2003 was my first time in Benidorm and it was not my last - staying at the Benidorm Flamingo Aparthotel certainly helped make my stay memorable. This aparthotel has a three star rating and in my opinion this is well justified. From the minute you check in at reception all the staff make you feel very welcome - they are all so friendly. The apartments are great, individually controlled air conditioning/central heating in each one, also must surely be the largest balconies around, there's plenty of room to sunbathe out here as they are brilliant suntraps. I preferred to sunbathe on the balcony as the loungers round the pool didn't have mattresses and they were rather hard plastic types. The All Inclusive restaurant is good, I'd be surprised if anyone couldn't get something to suit their taste, the only drawback here is that...

Benidorm for the Young and Young at Heart

Advantages: climate, distance from uk, relatively cheap, friendly
Disadvantages: busy, can be noisy, 'nightlife'

...Last June, my husband and I and our three children, aged 7, 5 and 2 years decided to go on holiday to Benidorm for the first time. This was not our first holiday abroad and drawing on previous experience decided to opt for somewhere with a short flight time, bearing in mind the ages of our children. The flight lasted approximately two hours which passed thankfully uneventful and the whole family emerged happy and looking forward to the next two weeks. It was the beginning of June so we weren't sure what the weather would be like and we were delighted that the weather was considerably warmer than England even though it was about 8.00pm. Benidorm is about an hour's drive away from Alicante airport. The coach driver took the main route, which is like a motorway, so we didn't see a lot of scenery. We were staying at the Monika...
