    As a person from Benidorm myself, I am so happy and full of pride to see this type of videos showing that kinda unknown view that not a lot of people know of. Benidorm is usually known for its massive numbers of tourists in the beach and lets be honest, parties and alcohol. But the thing is Benidorm is so much more. When people ask me if Benidorm is pretty I always respond: "Yes. If you know how to look at it correctly", but people always have the wrong (also true) image of it. Thank you for sharing your experienxe in Benidorm and for showing that side of the city people don't really know or even appreciate.
    Edit: I have been reading some more comments on this video about people not knowing Benidorm was a pretty decent clean city. Just what I was talking about, how stereotypical Benidorm is that you would expect it to be in someway dirty. So thank you for that too.

    • @CharliePauly
      @CharliePauly  2 года назад +1

      Love to hear this! We have had two awesome trips to Benidorm now and are proud to promote this side of the destination. Couldn’t agree more, it gets a bad rep (especially in England) but there’s a lot of options outside the typical bars and beach!

    HI Charlie and Lauren, Im so pleased you showed a different side to Benidorm, we have so many beautiful scenic routes all around us, yet alot of tourists NEVER get to see them! Your vlog truly did show some lovely parts (Nice food , cocktails places etc, although it does help when you have people planning and knowing where to go) . Shame you didnt get to see The Light house viewing point in Albir, thats also stunning! We have the pleasure of walking up to cross and other look out view over on right from cross EVERY single day and the views are still breath taking even after living here for 38yrs! Thank you for showing our beautiful town the way most of us see it :) Rose xx

    • @CharliePauly
      @CharliePauly  2 года назад +1

      Ah what a lovely comment. Thanks a lot Rose, and as you can tell we totally agree. We love Benidorm and hope the video done it justice. We actually done the Benidorm to Albir hike in 2018 and stopped at the lighthouse haha. Great shout!

    Highly amused at your reaction to the siesta. It is a good way of dealing with the afternoon heat. Bottle of wine with lunch, relax, sleep till 4.00 pm, explore until about 10.00pm as the heat falls away and the humidity builds up, find a place to eat. More wine, more relaxing. I lived in Malta for a while and love their way of life. Cava - a decent Cava can be better that a very expensive champagne. Our regular Friday tipple with fish and chips. You nearly made Benidorm attractive but we still prefer the off tourist places. Fun episode, guys.

    Hi ya two! First, a pity Benidorm apparently a period that earned it a reputation that needed to be changed. Joy though that from your vlog it is also quite apparent that they did a great job of putting it right up there at first class with lots of local charm and lots of cleanliness. Hooray for the city council and board of tourism for a great job. As always, I smiled all through the video at how “cute” the two of you look in your interaction and playfulness. It does give some of us a feeling of…. “I sure wish I’d have……”. Joy and love be with ye both!

    I know this is an old vlog , but ive always loved benidorm only been twice 2015 and 2019 but its my favourite place its like a comfort thing for me, i tend to binge watch alot of random benidorm related videos on youtube , on a daily basis that i feel like i know alot , but everything has changed since 2019 theyve revamped everythings , roads , shops , bars and resturants ect its so different i feel like if and when i go back it will be all new to me but either way i love the place and the tv series ,always cheers me up watching peoples videos .

    I am so glad you enjoyed your time in Benidorm. As I said last week, as a Brit living in Spain (since 1970, too) Benidorm is not my favourite place - i recomend Valencia to get an idea opf Spain itself, but it's great to see my countrrymen enjoying it.

    Benidorm is great! I had my stag weekend there with my mates in 2010 in a proper dive of a hotel. I've been back a few times with my wife for the cheap food and drink, and the great full english breakfasts. I think you missed out not visiting "little britain".

    Benidorm looked great. Lovely weather with clean and inviting surroundings. Great itinerary, loved especially the Jet Skiing and Paddle boarding. I think you will be doing plenty of both in the future. Haha Lauren's laugh on the Jet Skis was starting to turn sinister 😮 Sorry you're going have to explain to me who Sticky Vicky is and what she does 🤔 I think I've heard she's some sort of dancer. Has she appeared on Strictly for instance 💃 Sorry she does what sorry 🙊🙈 OMG! Did wonder what direction the vlog was taking when Lauren said "get me in that sack" Gotta love a girl who innocently says something funny without thinking first 😂 What wonderfully healthy and tasty looking food they had in the restaurant. Looking forward to seeing you in Madeira 🤗❤ ps After several times watching the fight again I'm now listening to it on the radio.

      @CharliePauly  2 года назад

    I go every year, stay in the old town its a blast. However I do recommend you trying the biggest fancy dress party in what some call the world held in November every year. This is the first one since the pandemic so I expect it to be quieter than most. normally 20k of brits descend dressed up. This year I am doing it in style flying out business with BA staying in a nicer hotel and spending more time in the old town which i personally think is better.

    Hi guys, this is the first vlog we've watched (sorry)
    We love Benidorm. It is what you want it to be. Our parents loved the Western Bar, so we got engaged there 3 years ago.
    We love the old town, the view point is known.as the Balcon. We can't wait to get back.
    Oh!
    Our friends stayed at your hotel & hated every second of their holiday. She said Benidorm was dirty & she felt unsafe.
    To each there own I suppose
