All-inclusive Benidorm holidays

It may be best known for its beautiful Costa Blanca beaches, but there’s plenty more to an all-inclusive holiday in Benidorm than warm seas and sensational sands. Picture incredible nightlife, a charming old town, a raft of resorts along the coast and beyond, and your every whim catered to in your hotel.

For a cheap holiday, there are plenty of flights from the UK, and bargain breaks are easy to come by. What’s more, there’s no need to compromise on comfort and convenience when you’re staying at an all-inclusive resort.

Benidorm has been welcoming holidaymakers to its sparkling shores for decades. Its all-inclusive resorts know what they’re doing, with a watersport-ready coastline and the very best of Spanish hospitality. Here are a few of our favourites to get you started.

Magic Cristal Park Hotel

With an app for excursions, tours and entertainment, Magic Cristal Park puts convenience at your fingertips. The resort’s hot tubs, two restaurants, four bars, disco and pool games may mean you decide to stay put, however.

Hotel RH Princesa

A large central pool and plenty of sun-loungers tick the boxes for a classic fly and flop holiday at Hotel RH Princesa. Give your skin a little more love in the Thermal Club Princesa Spa, with a steam bath, Finnish sauna, massage or treatment in the beauty room.

Villa del Mar Benidorm Hotel

Take to your sun-lounger on Villa del Mar’s solarium terrace to catch plenty of rays and enjoy sea views. When you’re all sunned out, head inside to the chill-out zone and spa for some rest and recuperation.

Hotel Voramar

For urban style on the beachfront, book into the uber-chic Hotel Voramar. The rooftop is where it’s at. Head upstairs for the pool, solarium and cocktail bar with live music and DJs, irresistible Mediterranean dishes, and more of those endless sea views.

Benidorm’s spacious beaches, calm waters and compact centre make it easy to tick off the family holiday must-dos. And while you’re sunbathing on the shore or paddling in the warm sea, the staff at your all-inclusive are catering to your every need.

Villa Luz Family Gourmet & All Exclusive Hotel

The resort’s Magic Aqua Experience water park provides all-day entertainment for the whole family. If little ones prefer to stay dry, there’s an action-packed kids’ club and a VR gaming room stocked with various consoles and race simulators. Meanwhile, the adults can spend their days at the all-inclusive beachfront bar.

Magic Robin Hood

‘Waterplay’, ‘Splash’, ‘the Dragon’s Race pool’, ‘Locksley’s Lagoon’, and many more flumes bring the fun at Magic Robin Hood. And that’s before the kids have even found the resort’s zip line, mini golf course and skate park. Elsewhere, you can rejuvenate in the resort’s spa, chill-out lounge and theme bars.

Magic Natura Resort

For a different kind of family trip, book into the Magic Natura Resort. A little outside Benidorm, this outdoorsy resort is home to a wildlife park, and incredible water park. Be sure to watch the mermaid show and experience the awakening of the aviary.

Picture sweeping golden beaches, an iconic skyline, sea views and an abundance of affordable all-inclusive resorts — Benidorm delivers on the couples holiday front. Romance in Benidorm is easy, whether you love exploring, sipping sundowners, or just holding hands across your sun-loungers.

Agua Azul Hotel

For a couple’s retreat right on the beach, head for the Agua Azul Hotel. Right in the heart of Benidorm, this is one of the city’s most popular all-inclusive resorts. Drink cocktails on the sand, by the pool or on the terrace — without worrying about the bill.

Sol Pelicanos Ocas

The star of ITV’s hit series, Sol Pelicanos Ocas is excellent for a bargain break. Hang out by the town’s biggest pool – with its geysers – and keep the cocktails coming from the swim-up bar. If you prefer your water wavy, Levante Beach is just 300 metres (0.2 miles) away.

Melia Benidorm

To kick your couple’s adventure up a notch, book into The Level at Melia Benidorm. Enjoy your exclusive breakfast area, pool, gardens and private lounge, as well as flexible check-in and a choice of the resort’s best rooms.
