Benidorm Old Town

Reviewed By gerald481 - Plymouth, United Kingdom

Took the trouble to have a day out to visit the old town for the first time on my third visit to Benidorm. I absolutely loved it wandering through the narrow streets and boulevards stopping at various venues for drink or two a complete more relaxed way to enjoy Benidorm and for me and I am sure for many a hidden gem that will have me returning for a longer stay in fact a weeklong stay here is very much on the cards later this year

Playa del Arenal

Reviewed By emma27108 - Chelmsford, United Kingdom

A sandy beach in great location with plenty of restaurants and bars along the promenade for snacks, lunch, dinner etc. Lots of parking nearby for rental cars including our preferred underground car park (keeping the car out of the sun) which was only €3 for the day. Sun loungers on the beach were €7 each plus €7 for an umbrella in August 2019. There were pedalos and kayaks available to rent, but we didn't try these.

Parque Natural de Penyal D'Ifach

Reviewed By C5731KVrachelm - London, United Kingdom

Loved this walk - easy to follow; beautiful flowers and amazing views. The first but is really easy then after the tunnel it gets a bit more uneven but still easy for an average hiker. I hiked it on my own no problem. There are toilets and water fountains at the start.
