@@dere._. I don't disagree, the money is important, to local business. Place can be so busy and hectic, just suggesting a more chilled atmosphere, would be a bonus for a lot of folk.
derek starks - 35 years ago Benidorm was already highly developed/built and already very touristy as we know nowadays. To see the old Benidorm you have to go back to the 60’s
1.10. Ahh Jail Rock. What I wouldn't give for a mad night in there like it used to be. Elvis, Northern Soul, The Blues Brothers, Carnaby Street. I miss it all soooooo much!!!
Another great video thanks for keeping us posted. It is really sad to see the Brit area like that, I do love that area but I also love the old town, like you say its a huge resort so plenty diversity. I also like heading further afield too such as Calpe on the little train. Stay safe and keep us posted your videos are so enjoyable
Hi Lucy, again thank you for being so Positive given the situation.Really enjoy your your vlogs,will keep follow you,and hope to buy you a drink at least for all your effort in keeping people updated.I feel I'm there in soul if not body..take care~Ian
I'm so gutted to see it's so bare i love this place so much I will be here in march and also may guaranteed nothing will stop me you just keep doing what your doing keeping all are hope's up cheers 🍻 lucy
Hi Lucy,think your the only person keeping me sane at the momemt,can't wait to get out there and hopefully when we do your gonna be on my must see list to say Thank you, stay safe dude👍
Never been to Benidorm but I find these videos interesting, maybe one day I will go! Keep up the good work Lucy, I'm sure things will be better real soon!
Benidorm needs to take this as an opportunity to change. Relying on Brits for serious income would have come to an end sooner or later. We've already seen the culture change which killed our own seaside towns of similar ilk.
I love the english strip with all the tribute act, singers comedians etc, but your right Lucy benidorm has so more to offer. There are bars with entertainment in the recion area. I love the old town it so family orientated, and there's plenty of entertainment there too. Levante promenade is very busy every night lots going on there too. But i hope to see the english strip back next year. My flight and date have been changed again. But i am determined to get there. Than you Lucy for the video stay safe girls. Bxx 👍🇮🇪❤😎
Thanks for the update .. always nice to see Benidorm even if it’s via RUclips haha . I don’t know when the Spanish or UK government will fully ease off the restrictions . But Im hopeful by next year it’ll be back to how it used to be . Once again thanks for the update . And I look forward to having that family holiday in Benidorm next year
Thank you for the update, if you had said last year that benny would be deserted like this, we all would have laughed/taken the piss but its reality now, Those bars closed where you couldnt move for people before is eerie. Hope the celymar in old town survives this amongst other little places -fantastic little hotel between the brasil and camposol. Am still hoping numbers drop so we can travel safely back soon. Adios for now :)
Thank's for video Lucy, so horrible to see benidorm so quiet and glad the old town is getting some visitors, love the waiters happy and upbeat attitude , hopefully benidorm will bounce back from this pandemic 🤞
Hello Lucy it's a great video as always terrible about the British strip but there is plenty of life in the Old Town it's lovely up that end. When Benidorm is in full swing it is nice to go to the old town. It is always awesome in the British strip when things are in full swing please god things will come back to normal Sooner, rather than later.
Hi Lucy me and my wife always visit beni when in Spain . we're normally there 3 to 4 times and xmas we looked to book in hotel but noticed prices have sky rocketed stay safe. Great show.
What a great video. I don't know Benidorm . (Visited as a child but that was centuries ago!). Despite the problems you are so upbeat and actually show the area that you are in instead of just talking to the camera. Neither do you continually diss the Brits that holiday there (unlike 1 channel that speaks about Spain). What a refreshing change. Hope your channel gets more subscribers you have gained another today.
Thanks again for another great video. This isn't Benidorm. Not the same atmosphere or people about. They have destroyed it. It's not good. Hopefully things change soon. Looking forward to another Benidorm holiday when it's back to the way it should be.
It’s really awful; I don’t see Benidorm recovering from this for at least 5 years if things dont reopen by October. Apparently Jet2 is considering cancelling Spanish flights up to October so that will be a disaster if other airlines follow
Hi Lovely Lucy , another good video keeping us informed but sad to see Benidorm on it’s knees . They should make you mayoress ! You are so upbeat about everything in these troubled times 😃😃😃
It is sad to see everything so empty and the Spanish resorts so quiet. I am a travel consultant and I have organised hundreds of holidays to Benidorm. I look forward to seeing the place busy sometime soon, even if I don't have a job by then.
Sad to see all the bars closed again on the strip, we had a fab time when we were there and felt really safe. We arrived back in the UK from Benidorm the day after the lockdown rules were announced so were are free quarantine tomorrow. Hope it gets back to some kind normality soon for everyone.
What a difference this pandemic has made😢 we should have been there now 🙄 but instead we're in Crete 🌞 we hope to visit Benidorm in the near future 😀 Thank you Lucy Young 😘 stay safe xx
even when i lived in eye beefa it was dead most of the season, west end dead till late at night, playa den bossa was the same. the last time i seen streets heaving all day in a holiday resort was malia back in the 90;s.
Im due to come 21st September for a week. Ive had to cancel twice already this year. As long as Ryanair are still flying to Alicante come then, ill be there.
@@josephhutchinson9428 yeah but why bring a Spanish strain back to the UK, he may come back asymptomatic and pass on to others, totally irresponsible and this is why we can’t control it through selfishness
The car parts man noticed it had gone from the start of the strip. Where is it now in the old town? On a different note just finished my 14 isolation on return from benidorm, got benidorm trips booked for September and October but only if UK drop the 14 day quarantine can't get the time off work. I felt more safer in the bars in benidorm than I do in the uk.
This is really sad especially for those who live and work in mainland Spain and the likes of the Canary Islands these are some of the safest places at the moment to go on holiday.
It’s amazing the number of British immigrants that get down into the Benidorm area. The weather obviates the design of the typical British bar\pub and seems everywhere to lead to the more gaudy type of signage we see here but plenty of outside space. The Brexit vote by the patriots though will knacker the longer term trade in the ‘British Area’ which may well be taken over by legal immigration by the Germans and other northern European countries in the Schengen area. It could be interesting how this develops.
I was on holiday in Benidorm from the 25/6 for 5 nights. The wearing of facemasks was not a problem for me but several bars i would normally drink in were not open...I did on a few occasions go to the winners bar for a drink and you were there behind the bar serving one evening, and its a nice place that you have..Unfortunately the day i arrived was the same day the UK government ordered a quarantine on return , so until the 13/8, i am now sat at home having taken 2 more weeks holiday from work....If i had been given prior notice of the 2 weeks quarantine on return to the UK, i would not have gone to be honest. I believe the UK government are just trying to contain the virus until a vaccine is developed, if so then i think that is the summer over....Hope not....Anyway i'll see you next time all being well.
Paula Martin No, if that were the case they would have stopped travel anywhere. Currently it's only a handful of countries. A second wave would cost the nation hundreds of billions, a few tourist pounds spent in the U.K. instead of Spain is a drop in the ocean.
Walking around in 30+ degrees heat with a mask on is not my idea of a holiday. My heart goes out to the Brits and locals who work so hard to make a living out there. I have never been to Benidorm as I prefer Cyprus, Lanzarote and Menorca but may visit one day for the experience. High tower blocks of flats and high rise hotels are not my thing. Let's get through this and back to normal asap.
Great news that the quarantine is to be lifted from today for Brits arriving back from Spain - sure this will encourage a lot more Brits to book holidays in Spain.....just cant wait...
THe iron statue is of Don Quixote and it used to be on "the square" ( friends call it chewing gum alley) Cant remember where it might have been before that.
You only wear it in busy streets. Avoid busy streets and supermarkets here and life is pretty much back to normal. Walk to the beach, enjoy your day, walk for drinks and dinner, go back to hotel and repeat... no mask required.
We should have been there in two weeks time but the Don Pancho has delayed opening again, we've rebooked for Christmas, I really do hope we're allowed to fly to Beni by then, in the meantime everybody stay safe😷
Jamesie Carrick Good luck finding a company stupid enough to offer cover to a place which the foreign office advised against travelling to. Only a moron would be considering a foreign holiday this year. Seriously, I cannot understand people who are determined to go to such a dump in the current climate.
Hi Lucy! Thank you so much for your updates. I especially love your reports on rollerscates ..lol....my mum lives in Ciudad Quesada and I always come out in September and come down to Benidorm for Pride. Any updates on gay bars and the pink pound in the old town. I heard pride is cancelled but will there be a socially distanced celebration. You may not know but any advice would be cool. Keep up the good work. Really cheers up my day! 👍👍👍
Hi there, I was supposed to go to Benidorm around your times. I have heard from my best friend (who is gay and was going to go along with me and a group of friends) that Benidorm pride has been cancelled altogether, not even a socially distanced celebration is going on. As for gay bars, a couple of bars are open, examples being Kafee Klee, Company Bar and Sensations. Most gay bars in the old town are closed, and therefore the pink pound does not have as much choice.
Benidorm looks perfect to me, all my favourite bits open and thriving, and the bits I tend to avoid deserted. Sadly the Brit strip needs to be open and thriving to support the rest economically. I wonder if this is hinting at the future with Brexit Britain. I am on holiday now and feel a need to stop off in Beni on my way home to show a bit of support.
Fantastic again Lucy, I hope any british tourists take the time to head up to the old town and spend some time and money enjoying the spanish hospitality. Really enjoy it up that end of town. Take care all
Hi, Lucy i always stay in the old town but have never seen that guy before, tell me were he lives i will defo have selfie with him next year !!👍👍 chin up, Brits back soon.😎😎
Couldn’t think of anything worse than being with thousands of Brits who can’t behave or stay sober when on holiday. I like to stay with locals and see how life is in their own culture.
I think it because most of them are working class and stupid. They have cashed in on there council houses, and now spending there gains on all day drinking sessions listening and watching acts that look out of date even in the 70s. Thats why I love beni, I am one of them. Great Video
So all tourist not coming to UK are also not spending a pound in UK but in their own country what is the different. Income 38 Billions 1,2 million jobs. When all 22 millions tourist from UK will stay at home 8 millions will go on holiday in UK 14 millions will stay at home and spent their money in other way or save it. Stupid decision 14 days quarantine but UK governments are good at making stupid deductions.
IRON HORSE Who cares? The kind of people who go abroad only to drink in "British pubs" are the kind of people who shouldn't be allowed a passport in the first place. I long for a return to the days when the poor couldn't afford to travel, and going abroad was a chance to experience different cultures, foods and experiences. Now, you can't go anywhere without bumping into a plane load of fat women from Liverpool having a hen weekend.
I came back from Benidorm last week and throughly enjoyed it, yes it was quieter than normal but still plenty of bars,shops and restaurants open and the weather was fantastic! As for people saying you have to book a spot on the beach no you don't!! You can pay when you get there so I don't know where this has come from and the comments about wearing a mask, dont let this put you off!! You get used to it more or less straight away so just enjoy yourselves and have a blast!! 🌞🌴😁👍🍺🍺
well said, it is only the British areas that are affected and there is still plenty of life about to enjoy a holiday, the beach front at night is packed, we are going to show that on our next video. and masks are no big deal
Lucy you have done us a great service , we had our week there and then on the Saturday before we came back our government moved the goal posts and brought in the quarantine , wankers . Sorry we didn't get down your way to meet you , but keep the video`s coming if you can before the place becomes a ghost town . Coronavirus is hell on earth and i am fucked off with it , and to be honest we should be living and partying not staying at home . Good luck Benidorm and hopefully see you next year if anyone is left there .
People are thinking , is it really worth coming to Spain this year ,for example , bloody masks all the time ,quarantine , hassle at airports , temp' checks , track and trace and heading towards Autumn and you are throwing hard earned money at this , no fun for kids really , they need shed loads of freedom . [also living in the hope you going have a job when you return ] . Those bars are going to have to try and grind it out i'm afraid . Trouble is , next Year is no guarantee .
Most of locals will be enjoying the peace and quiet.
But they prob need the money off us to keep going
@@dere._. I don't disagree, the money is important, to local business. Place can be so busy and hectic, just suggesting a more chilled atmosphere, would be a bonus for a lot of folk.

So very tacky now commercialised i wS there 30 years ago when you knew you were in Spain.

I think it because most of them are working class and stupid. They have cashed in on there council houses, and now spending there gains on all day drinking sessions listening and watching acts that look out of date even in the 70s. Thats why I love beni, I am one of them. Great Video
Every pound not spent in Benidorm is a pound gained for our OWN businesses in the UK.
So all tourist not coming to UK are also not spending a pound in UK but in their own country what is the different. Income 38 Billions 1,2 million jobs. When all 22 millions tourist from UK will stay at home 8 millions will go on holiday in UK 14 millions will stay at home and spent their money in other way or save it. Stupid decision 14 days quarantine but UK governments are good at making stupid deductions.
IRON HORSE Who cares? The kind of people who go abroad only to drink in "British pubs" are the kind of people who shouldn't be allowed a passport in the first place. I long for a return to the days when the poor couldn't afford to travel, and going abroad was a chance to experience different cultures, foods and experiences. Now, you can't go anywhere without bumping into a plane load of fat women from Liverpool having a hen weekend.
@@spencerwilton5831 You're so right. The citys and resturantes are full of people who can't even reed or rite propperly.
on Corner of Ava de Mallorca..
correct, the bottom of the square
This is good for UK sea side making a come back . British is best 🇬🇧
@Smack Down lol benidorm is just a cheap blackpool full of grannies in winter and piss heads in summer .......
Yes 👍🏻. Agreed
Did Mataoe's open?
YES
I came back from Benidorm last week and throughly enjoyed it, yes it was quieter than normal but still plenty of bars,shops and restaurants open and the weather was fantastic! As for people saying you have to book a spot on the beach no you don't!! You can pay when you get there so I don't know where this has come from and the comments about wearing a mask, dont let this put you off!! You get used to it more or less straight away so just enjoy yourselves and have a blast!! 🌞🌴😁👍🍺🍺
well said, it is only the British areas that are affected and there is still plenty of life about to enjoy a holiday, the beach front at night is packed, we are going to show that on our next video. and masks are no big deal
Lucy you have done us a great service , we had our week there and then on the Saturday before we came back our government moved the goal posts and brought in the quarantine , wankers . Sorry we didn't get down your way to meet you , but keep the video`s coming if you can before the place becomes a ghost town . Coronavirus is hell on earth and i am fucked off with it , and to be honest we should be living and partying not staying at home . Good luck Benidorm and hopefully see you next year if anyone is left there .
Is Valentino's still there Benidorm 85??!!
People are thinking , is it really worth coming to Spain this year ,for example , bloody masks all the time ,quarantine , hassle at airports , temp' checks , track and trace and heading towards Autumn and you are throwing hard earned money at this , no fun for kids really , they need shed loads of freedom . [also living in the hope you going have a job when you return ] . Those bars are going to have to try and grind it out i'm afraid . Trouble is , next Year is no guarantee .
