Not worth the money...or the hassle

Advantages: Good range of food
Disadvantages: Overcrowded, queues for food, poor sized room...felt victimised.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel in March on a last minute deal costing us over £800 for half board basis. We are a young couple aged 18 and 19 and found the hotel to be very uninviting towards us. We know how to behave and are responsible young adults but the people at this hotel failed to give us a chance to prove this. Visiting in March, the main customers at this time are older, but we were just looking forward to being out of England ...
...found that the staff gave us one of the smallest rooms in the whole hotel - maybe because of our age - but when we were paying a large amount of money for a poor room, I was not impressed. The only good thing about the hotel was the choice of food, being hungry young people we fully made use of the buffet style meal times. However, there were numerous occasions when were were queuing out into reception to even be able to enter the restaurant. We ...

Review of Sol Pelicanos Ocas, Benidorm

THE BEST HOTEL BY FAR!

Advantages: Nice rooms, Gay friendly, Entertainment, Food, 4 Bars!
Disadvantages: Lifts

...And I have to say,this hotel has to be the best one I have ever stayed in. We stayed here for a week,and we were all inclusive. So that means 24 hour a day food and drink when ever you want it. Big mistake if your like me who loves a drink and cant handle it haha. Anyway...The hotel is modern,beautifully decorated. Lots of facilities to keep you busy i.e gym, hair salon, internet, arcade and swimming pool. If you book your holiday with Thomas ...
...great for the little ones. There is entertainment on every night,in 2 big suites. But if you want real entertainment,id defo go into Benidorm Centre. Just a word of warning...Sticky Vicky is only for the open minded haha. Anyway,the food was amazing in the hotel. The best paella I have ever tasted. I would say on a whole the staff were friendly. The only down side has to be the lifts. They are black inside,with tiny lights. We stayed on ...

Review of Hotel Flamingo Oasis, Benidorm

decent hotel shame about the food :(

Advantages: overall great hotel
Disadvantages: food was nasty most thetime

this hotel is slap bang in middle of all the entertainment in benidorm so would be ideal for those seeking bar crawling really cheap. the beach is literally down the road from the hotel, id say about 200metres away. the beach is really and not so overcrowded as you would think it be in the summer. plenty of shops and mini markets about (also those taccy shops that sell crap but we love them dont we haha). the hotel is very clean and shiny. alot ...
...wary because some are quite rude and think they own it. the rooms are decent sizes, no kettle or sink though because you get everything full board at this hotel. you get a small tv, twin or double bed, nice bathroom and a really good balcony. if you have the balcony facing the pool then you have the best view because they have nightly entertainment there so you can watch from your room, but if your on the other side then im sorry but all you see ...

Review of Helios Hotel, Benidorm

Magic Monika, not so magic nowadays

Advantages: The card does let you into other hotels in Benidorm and make usu of their facilities,meals and dri
Disadvantages: Mainly Spanish guests

My family and myself have just returned from the Magic Monika Holidays hotel in Cala Finestrat. We have been there before about 8 years ago. This hotel still offers fairly good value for money, but the standards have declined. The swimming pool, although looks good, requires a revamp as there a lot of tiles missing. The food was basic, but generally of acceptable quality with a lot of choice. You would be dissapointed if you had paid for it in a ...
...you present at the restaurant and bars. You do feel like you are being treated as second class if you are British compared to the Spanish. They get issued with a all "inclusive gold card" which enables them to get premium branded drinks rather than the cheap tasting drinks you get with the basic card. . ...

Review of Apartamentos Magic Monika Holidays, Benidorm

Flamingo Oasis a stressfree, calm and fun pack holiday.

Advantages: Close to shops, the sea front, great food and entertainment
Disadvantages: No tea making facilities in the guest rooms

Stayed at the Flamingo Oasis Hotel between 5/8/08-20/8/08 When you pull up to the hotel in your coach the first thing your likely to see is the large flamingo that is painted on the side of the hotel, at night this flamingo lights up in pink colous. When you walk into the main reception area you can feel the coolness of the air con, the staff are kind and friendly. They book you into the hotel and you have your photo taken for the ID cards, there ...
...how high up in the hotel your room is, will depend how much of a view you have. We stayed on the 23rd floor and the view was magnificent, during the day you can see from miles around and at night time Benidorm lights up. The food is delicious and the hotel provides for all types of diets. During the week they will have themed nights in the resturant and have a person to greet the guests and play music. At breakfast you have a choice of a full breakfast, ...
