Nothing magic about this place!
Review of Apartamentos Magic Monika Holidays, Benidorm by
weebill
Advantages: Nicely located.
Disadvantages: Poor service, poor food and old fashioned rooms.
I know when writing a review one should try to be balanced and give mention of both the good and the bad and therefore this review may seem like a bit of a rant but there really was nothing or at least very, very little good to say about this hotel.
The hotel in question is the Magic Monika Holidays Aparthotel in Benidorm, Benidorm is one of my favourite holiday destinations and this hotel was so bad it went a long way to ruining my two weeks holiday. ... ...thing about it, set in the quiet area of Cala de Finestrat and only 500metres from the white sandy beaches it gets off to a good start but it quickly goes downhill.
One of the most annoying things by far about this hotel is the fact that it is a playground to elderly Spanish couples who have no idea how to be courteous to others or how to wait their turn to be served, they feel because they are in their own country they have the right to push in ...

Cheap & Cheerful with a Great Location!
Review of Evamar Apartments, Benidorm by
Bayley123
Advantages: Close to beach and nightlife, cheap room rate if you shop about
Disadvantages: Busy surroundings on market days
...second time staying in the Evamar Apartments.
What can you say about Benidorm - if you visit with no great expectations and looking to have a great time, you will find yourself having a blast! The weather is (usually) great, and you can find yourself on the beach at any time of the year.
As for the Evamar, there are 24 floors to this apartment building accessed by three lifts. The reception, which houses security boxes and computers for internet ... ...found to be very friendly and helpful. There is a bar on the ground floor, offering the usual night-time hotel entertainment, but as you're literally a stone's throw from all the action, i'd probably give this a miss!
The rooms are basic, but of an adequate size, with lounge/kitchenette, twin bedroom and bathroom - but the best point about these apartments is the balcony! These are HUGE, and a top tip (if you don't suffer from vertigo!), would be ...

total disgrace
Review of Marc Apartments, Benidorm by
clairedundee
Advantages: none
Disadvantages: extremely poor standards and uphill location
the MARC apartments are a disgrace and are not as advertised. the apartments are not secure it was apparant from the cracks, foot prints and busted lock the door had been kicked in several times.Upon entering the illequipped appartment you are greeted with a stale damp smell which is particularly poignant in the toilate area. The balcony/sun terrace was secured with a metal chain and padlock. The sliding doors will not open unless you are willing ... ...on the balcony you can enjoy views over the opposite buildings car park.we were booked to stay for two weeks but didnt last a hour we were shown annother room in the block which was larger in size but in just as bad condition. needless to say we moved to alternative accomodation. booked throgh follies vacancies who do not provide a maid and are reluctant to give back deposite! ...

Disadvantages: Aweful smokey bar
...the smoky bar.Hope this is a balanced reiew that helps people decide on their Benidorm choice.

Not bad for the price
Review of Flamingo Benidorm Hotel by
frankiecesca
Advantages: Cheap, not bad location, food is nice
Disadvantages: kids everywhere - not good for just couples wanting to relax!
I stayed at the Flamingo Benidorm in October 2007 for 7 nights between the 11th to 18th with my mother. We were on an all inclusive package booked on Jet2holidays.com which cost us £398 in total for the two of us including flights and accomodation but no transfers.
The hotel and facilities:
The hotel was neither too old or new - just basic and did it's job - however it did look quite nice upon entering with an array of seating and marble floors. ... ...Rooms:
The rooms at the Flamingo Benidorm are relatively large - there was staying here but the room technically is made for up to 4 people so i guess it felt a bit larger for us as we didn't fill it! The room was always clean and was designed in principle very well as it had a bathroom to the right of the front door, a bedroom to the right side facing the door, a living room which has the extra sofabed in to the left facing the front door and then ...
