We arrived at our hotel Onasol Los Dalamatas it was great but Spanish, we went for the all inclusive option so free food and drinks which is essential for any holiday!
The weather was great to be honest! It was averaged about 14-16 degrees, I know that doesn't sound a lot but it was lovely compared to back in the UK where it was 0 degrees.
Our hotel was about 100/200 metres from the beach our view from the balcony was great!
Even though we had all inclusive we were next to the fast food restaurants which was also a mega bonus just in case food wasn't being served at a certain time.
There was 16 of us who went on this holiday as it was for my Cousins & Aunties Birthday.
We arrived there at the night around 9pm and got the drinks rolling in for the night ahead! It was fun, I may have got a little bit drunk... Okay I got very drunk but that isn't the point! We went out to some local bars from what I can remember, as we arrived late anyway we didn't actually leave the hotel till 11pm so after the local bars, we went on "The Strip" this is known as like the nightclub kind of area, it was amazing considering I'm only 17 years old I've never experienced this before and it blew my mind! The music was amazing I just danced the night away!
Every morning I would get up from a full english breakfast as you just need to its free? When does anyone ever have the time to make a full english at home? I never do! The next day I got up slightly hungover and just walked straight out onto the balcony the view was incredible it was slightly chilly but the sea and the sun and just the view it was just amazing!
I am definitely a summer person, I hate the winter one of my dreams in the future is to spend the winter away from the UK in Australia which is of course their summer! That would make my life and myself so much happier, winter depresses me, I hate the cold!
In the day you can walk along the whole beach front right in till the end then turn down a little road on the right and its called the old town, up there is little markets and shops its actually really nice up there, it was a long trek though so we often turned round a walked all the way back which took ages, there's a hill up to the old town and there's this rock where you can get a full view of Benidorm, on the other side of this rock we found a small beach which looked stunning and a little marina with all the boats in.We chilled down at the beach that day and had a few selfie's and just chilled it was so relaxing.
This was basically what we did day in day out, but on the night before we went home which was the Tuesday it was my Aunties birthday and she's a bit wild, she wanted everyone to wear wigs so we bought loads of wigs from the joker store, it was hilarious, my grandma kept picking up rubber penises and laughing I was nearly crying!!!
Anyway that night we planned to go out to the tranny / gay bars up in the old town, but the entertainment wasn't on as it was January and the bars don't have many tourists at that time of year, so that was disappointing we found a nice little bar not far from that when everything went down hill...
My mum lost her purse, it had all of her cards in which is very scary to think someone may have your debit and credit card, so we immediately ran back up to old town searched for it couldn't find it anywhere. In Spain its common to get pickpocketed but no one was near my mum for her to get pickpocketed so we think she left it in the taxi but we had to cancel all of her cards and just carry on with the night, half of the group parted at that point as they were just boring and basically we only had 6 nights there so this was our last night but the other part of the group was staying for 7 nights so they didn't mind missing out that night, well I wasn't going to let that ruin the night for my Auntie we chilled in a english bar and had a great dance then decided to go down The Strip, I wasn't drunk this time though so it was nice to experience it sober it wasn't as fun though haha, after that we was walking home but then we bumped into a bar which had a hypnosis performing so we went in, it was literally brilliant.
He basically hypnotised these two women and made them do what ever he said it was crazy, he asked one of my aunties friends to go up and she said f*** off as she did it before and she took her top off and everything and she didn't even know what was happening, I'm kind of a dare devil and I really wanted to do it but the man didn't seem interested, in the end he picked me and he tried to do it, but he either couldn't do it as they know after about 2 minutes if they can hypnotise you or if they just didn't want you up there, I'm only 17 years old anyway so he failed on me, the performance carried on anyway though and he made them pretend to be sticky vicky, now if you don't know who she is i don't really know either all I know is that she is famous in Benidorm for pulling strange objects out of her vagina on stage... Haha so you can imagine what these women were doing on stage it wasn't literally the real thing though thank god!
I actually wanted to see this Sticky Vicky woman purely because if you go Benidorm everyone says you have to see her, I don't think it would of been pleasant but it would of been cringy but hilarious lets be honest!
Anyway that was my holiday in benidorm overall, it is such a great place! To party or to chill its mixed with all different ages there is quite a few OAPS here believe or not!
It is a cheap place to stay and fly over to be honest, I was shocked how great our hotel was considering we payed less than £200 for everything including flights too! I am considering going to Benidorm for my 18th in July with some off my friends too!
The night life out there is incredible I can't even how mental it will be in the summer!
I hope you enjoyed this blog post! & If your looking for a cheap but nice holiday abroad i would highly suggest Benidorm!
