Been going to Benidorm since 1973 - yes an old git lol. Used to live near there. Where you saw the Ale Hop shop on that corner, if you looked almost directly in front of you to your right, there is a big sign on a wall for a Paella. This square has some INCREDIBLE tapas bars and one in particular called Zodiac. 6 pinxchos (tapas) and a bottle of Rose Cava for 8 euros, or Menu del Dia (menu of the day ) three courses with wine for 12 euros each. Follow it off with a brandy called Soberano or a liquer called Ponche (say ponshay) Caballero, with ice (in Spanish con hielo ... say con yellow). Glad we are going back in five weeks for 14 days , then June for another 14 days and then September for 23 days. If you are just thinking about going to Benidorm ..... dont think, just go.
Just back from my first ever holiday in Benidorm and this video has made me nostalgic. Heard all the horror stories over the years but this has been one of my best holidays ever! We were twice in the last tapas bar shown Pinxtos Arrera. Delicious and cheap! Thank you for doing the video.
Thanks to your subtitules i can practice my pronunciation in english and you also show me images of this wonderful place, thanks you very much! Greetings from Argentina!! 🇦🇷🇦🇷 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
We stayed in Flamingo Beach Resort on Calle del Esperanto. 15 minute walk to the beach, the strip and the Old Town with plenty to see and do on the way, even in January. If you’re into karaoke, Voices / Shooters is perfect. Plenty of shows on at the moment. Look for Pablo Bloom at Uncle Ped’s British Pub on Calle Derrmador.
Great video I love Benidorm people who haven’t been don’t understand how good it is, it’s got something for everyone plus the sun ☀️ is 90% always there… was the video made today if so what’s the temperature…..
Someone should explain to the English that the bars in the center of town are not the place to be half naked screaming. That's what the English bars on Levante beach are for
@@GimbalWalkTV Thanks man!! I'm brazilian and will take my vacations next week in Spain.. I'll visit tons of cities.. my base near Benidorm will be Valencia.. so I'm planning to pass an entire day in Benidorm and return to Valencia by bus.. Do you think on a Sunday I can buy the return bus ticket to Valencia (in Estación de Autobuses Benidorm) without any issues? Cause I don't know how much time I'm willing to spend there strolling around. I know I can buy it in the Alsa site but don't know if tickets are too demanding..
Also watch our tour of TORQUAY, England - th-cam.com/video/UdVx3yx8BMg/w-d-xo.html

So sick we cannot go to Benidorm this year hubby waiting for a hip replacement so this brings back happy memories😊
Oh no - hope you both get sorted soon!
I had the Benidorm theme tune running through my head.
🤣🤣🤣

Yey!!! That makes me happy
It’s a great place isn’t it
Something for everyone
It's always the ones who've never been to be the first to tell you how awful it is
Went there several times when stationed in Spain 1981-84, great times!
Good fun!
Just come back from Benidorm last week. My first visit. Lads holiday. Will bring my wife next year.
Fab isn’t it!
Never been one for Benidorm, But I like the look of Old Benidorm. Might give it ago. Thank's for your Blog.
Old town is great
Also check out Poniente Beach side of Benidorm. It’s very peaceful and classy

It's funny isn't it! 🤣

Love the walks!! I love Benidorm. Been twice! The nightlife in the old town is great! When was this filmed? X
Thank you
This was last october I think!
Great video I love Benidorm people who haven’t been don’t understand how good it is, it’s got something for everyone plus the sun ☀️ is 90% always there… was the video made today if so what’s the temperature…..
No - not today - was a few months ago this one!
I suspect people say it’s horrible to keep it to themselves! I will be back

Agreed
Can't beat Benidorm
True!
Booked a hotel in old town for Oct . American.hope there are more!
You'll have a great time
I'm there too in October - you might catch me walking around!
Chloe mum liz is there now with her friends now and it 1 of her friend Birthday and they having a nice time.
Nice!!
Can someone confirm that there was an open air cinema in the old town please? 🙏🏻
When was that video taken? Im wondering if it was that hot 9months ago- in february 2024?
What time of the year was this? I am wondering when it is best to go, not too hot and busy but still nice and warm?
Pretty much anytime apart from Nov to March really!
I’ve been in February before and it’s been nice but I might have been lucky
6:55 - isn't Balcon de Europa in Nerja??? Far far away from Benidorm..
Ahh yes it is!
I got the two mixed up
The Benidorm one is Balcó del Mediterrani!

Never fails to amaze me why Brits go there and don't touch Spanish food, kinda the point of going abroad no?
Fully agree
Why the thing with the English? No other nations are allowed here?
All nations are allowed there
Not my idea of a vacation spot. Nothing but a tourist trap. Gahhhhh
Sooooo commercialised.
Sure hope the people are all gone in March. 🤔
Well considering the average temperature is 18° in March. I don't think the place will be empty, do you LOL?😂🇬🇧 .
Why do you hope the people are all gone in March?
