Find your groove

And there’s just so much to do! Couples, singles, pensioners and families with young children would be wrong to dismiss a holiday in Benidorm in 2018 as a cheap getaway for teenagers and twenty-somethings hell-bent on all-night dancing sessions (although there’s plenty of that on offer).

Okay, Benidorm package holidays might not mean a quiet, meditative break filled with fine dining, but there’s more to this thrilling city than meets the eye.

Discover old Spain

A true taste of Spain can be found in the maze of narrow ‘ramblas’ of the Old Town at the heart of Benidorm, where you can marvel at gleaming white Spanish architecture and sample local cuisine along Calle Santo Domingo, or ‘Tapas Alley’, as it’s also known.

Family holidays in Benidorm, especially all-inclusive Benidorm breaks, are ideal for kids. When they’ve had enough of building sandcastles on the beach, they can't fail to be thrilled by the glass-bottomed boat ride around Benidorm Island, plus there are an array of family-friendly theme parks, water parks and wildlife centres a short drive or bus ride away from the city.

Party until the sun comes up

If you're keen to let your hair down, let the city's night-time revelry draw you in – you're in Benidorm, after all!

The beachfront is the best place to head, where, from sunset to sunrise, the taps are flowing, the dance floors are pulsing and the city's famous drag acts are in full…drag! Trust us, you'll be thankful for the array of British cafés offering a full English brekkie the next morning.

If that doesn't quite cut the mustard, and you’d prefer a cheap holiday in Benidorm that gets the muscles working, hike up the sun-baked Sierra Helada for jaw-dropping views over Benidorm and the glistening Mediterranean beyond.

When to go

While Benidorm has heaps to enjoy all year round, if you’d prefer your hotel pool to be less swarming with kids on their school holidays, visit in low season. April, May June, September and October are ideal, when you can avoid the searing temperatures of July and August and you’re likely to find cheap holidays to Benidorm.

Accommodation prices can vary with the seasons – high season (Easter break and mid-July to end of August) obviously being the most expensive, though family holiday package deals to Benidorm are widely available.

For some midwinter sun in 2018, you can bag yourself an absolute bargain, with huge hotels offering luxury all-inclusive Benidorm deals at rock-bottom prices. 

Events for your diary

Throughout the year, Benidorm boasts as many fiestas as any other Spanish town or city, from the firework-filled spectacle of Las Fallas in March to a grand celebration of Spain’s Moorish past in October. Just be warned that hotel prices can rocket during big fiestas, so book early.
