HI Lee. Love living my life vicariously through you! I sit back, relax and enjoy the video while you do all the work. An ideal arrangement. Thanks!
I really can't stand people being snobby about the likes of Blackpool and Benidorm. If its not for you, just don't go, simple.
True. We went once, Mrs loathed it but l was fine, not really my thing but no point in fighting it is there? Wouldn't go again but can totally understand the appeal for others. 😊
People who put down Benidorm have never been to Benidorm
100%
I’ve lived in Spain for 7 years. Benidorm is horrific. Que asco
@@alexpiptom never been have you
@@TN2022c did you read my above comment? I’ve been in living in Spain for 7 Years and had the unfortunate experience to pass through Benidorm three times. Dreadful place with dreadful people.
I’m happy the Spanish government is cracking down on the red British tourists though! I’m ashamed to be British myself whenever I’ve been there.
Why do people keep coming out with that bollocks? I've been and I didn't like it.
Could you bring some of that sunshine and warmth back with you Lee? We flippin well need it here in the UK. 😀🌞
Uk is being sprayed grey 😢
Hey hun I enjoyed that thank you . and the weather was fantastic . lovely video as usual love it when its just you and no music xxx❤️
When you were looking at the big lollipops, what you called 'The Kitten Thing' is ' HELLO KITTY.' LOL!
And the ones next to them were like ... Oh Hello!!!! lol
Well I live in blackpool and would like to say Thanks Lee for always being great about the place. If we had the weather it would be fantastic. Benidorm is great as well, never been disappointed. It has everything what you want it to have. Going again in a few weeks and booked again for next year. People I tell to go and do love it!
Benidorm and Blackpool god no
@@doublejumpvideogames.... Lol
Great to meet you on my one day stay in Benidorm. Boy it was hot on that Wednesday. Great video's The MacMaster😁👍
england school hols not for another 2 weeks...
The people that say it’s like Blackpool in the sun haven’t been to either places recently. There’s something for everyone in Benidorm. Last time I went to Blackpool there were loads of tarmac pavements covered in discarded chewing gum & the place stank of chip oil that needed changing.
If you go to the old town backstreets you can get proper cruzcampo lager and tapas for less than 3 euros
What a place lea I had apartment here for 7 years old town lost my husband 2020 live to go back but disabled blackpool is also my place but on my own now xp
'Just like my Taycan but I bet it’s got a longer range'…cracked me up!😂
Great vlog.
One thing you could vlog about is how to pack for a break?
You seem to be able to manage on a cabin bag for a week?
Maybe a future vlog?
So a vlog with lee packing merch lol?
@@johncrozier6875 Lee did do a quick packing demo at the beginning of one of his trips abroad, saying how he rolls his stuff up, can't tell you which one though.
Hi Lee,enjoyed your video look like enjoying yourself there.
I’ve got great memories of Blackpool but least got lovely weather there&food&drink very affordable 👍
It’s not school holidays yet. My 2 daughters and my wife work in 3 different state schools.
Great video Lee we love Benidorm always go in the quieter months love the old town like you xxxxxx❤❤
I love it ,the live music is fab . You get best of both. Such happy place too . Enjoy Lee x
I would love to come to Benidorm, bet you have some right laughs and fun.
Hey Hun what a beautiful view there . enjoy it while you can xx❤
Lynne you should try Beni!
@@TN2022cno never been.i would love to go somewhere else than Tenerife
Loving this video, maybe u should try again going Cyprus in summer season, even did see some empty shops in benidorm so I assume it all same everywhere
Aren't you a bit early for the school holidays..??? In Birmingham it doesn't start until last week of July..???
Scottish school holidays started so be a lot of scottish burnt kids there
Scottish schools are already on their summer holidays
hi lee, great video, wish i was there instead of rainy, and miserable weather UK
July and August are dead in the bars and strip in Benidorm compared to the rest of the year, some British bars actually closed and some Entertainers take their holidays! It's because all the hotels are full of families, many in all inclusive stays who don't venture out to the strip. It's a great time to visit if you like brilliant weather and a quieter holiday
Just missed you Lee we were there last week, stayed in the old town and loved it….getting hot there though now 😎🌴🍺
Nice one, Lee 👍👍
I agree Lee ,if you come away /avoid the strip Benidorm is lovely .
Absolutely love Benidorm and loving you're vlog keep them coming Lee ❤X
Imagine what it’s gonna be like in two weeks when it is the school holidays in England because I guarantee the price you are paying will triple when it is the school holidays as it always does English school break up the end of July usually Friday the 19th and perhaps the following Monday
Your a real trooper
Now you on your next family 🎉
Another nice video Lee, it's misty and dull still 100kms south of Sydney, a sunny day would be nice for a change 😫 Au
Lucy and the chatterguys talk about the Benidorm/Blackpool comments on her latest video at Rays 2. And I certainly don't think Benidorm is anything like Blackpool
Oh Lee, I was there 1-5 July , me and me daughter for 4 nights, weather fantastic, beach 🏖️ beautiful, people happy, what more could you ask. Can’t wait to go back 🏝🍻
chips and gravy in 1984 30p now chips and gravy 3 quid so 10x
I’ve just got back a week ago. Absolutely loved it. Was there in April also. This time we stayed at Rio park - lovely hotel and the Spanish were off school, was heaving ! But I don’t mind it busy, if you want quiet go menorca etc.
Great video thank you
Thanks for the video, always enjoy your work. Just look around: First week in July is not the school summer holiday in England and Wales. Scotland, yes, but Benidorm wasn't exactly heaving with kids.
Benidorm Old Town Fiesta Lee, Think it starts 2nd Wednesday of November but double check. I am going, so maybe see you there. Feel free to contact me if you fancy it 👍
Hi Lee not tuned in for a while catching up mate hope your well?
Still brilliant content mate love it !!
Ryan
Looks like the weather is improving from Thursday if you're thinking of doing more UK vlogs.
From memory you've done Brighton once.
But not Bournemouth, Padstow (Rick Stein) coastal
'Tintagel' King Arthur's castle etc going West.
Some stunning coastal walks.
Doing your bit for the English Tourist board.
Great vlog Lee, staff at the hotel are all very friendly, and as you say, nothing wrong with Blackpool but it's not benidorm. Your benidorm vlogs are my favorite. 👍🏴
Most British schools don’t break up for another couple of weeks
have you done a vid on the 'Benidorm' tv series places?
Nice One Mac .
Love walking up the front especially at night when it's lit up 😊
Yep I’m watching this on Sunday morning looking out of the window and it’s YET AGAIN absolutely p#*’ing down with rain and 11 degrees in the uk………..in July 🤨
Good one Lee again 😊glad your enjoying it we Love Benidorm I’ve been to other places around Europe if you want a good time and great bars never get bored just booked a week from 13th July not been since 2017
The haters just don’t know how to have fun enjoy your books by the pool 😂😂oh by the way I love architecture and history but I go to Benidorm for a fun week and a laugh
lee we live in Spain and often drive to Benidorm mainly old town there are wonderful places to visit without being in the main strip.
We live in Hondón Valley close to Aspe..
You make interesting and sometimes amusing content 😅
Frank & Dee
Can't knock Benidorm. We stayed in Rincoin area in April, loved exploring end to end , it wasn't as warm but nice to get away.
Not quite school holidays a couple weeks out maybe lol
Lee your mom was funny trying to sing that song . she knew what you were trying to do lol .❤xx
YES BENIDORM IS BACK, IGNORE THE HATERS WHO HAVENT BEEN😂
Have been it's a dive, full of pink fat English people
Lee. You recently gave Stephen "Walk on the wild side" a challenge with the 5 stack burger. I have a challenge for you. You do the 5 stack, no water, and under 1 day. ;)
Amazing, we had same in Alicante
Nice one Lee😊
i paid less than £500 for my stay in Cala Bona in Majorca from tues - fri this week and that was half board, coach transfer and also a trip to the drach caves, cost about the same as your 2 nights in benidorm and it was 32 degrees on thurs :)
@@karlsmith25 not sure Lee is a bargain type of guy lol 🤣
Brilliant vlog
We stayed hotel benidorm centre last year loved it going back same hotel in september.
I don't know about Mansfield,but schools in the rest of England don't have summer holidays till the 22nd of July.
Love Benidorm, 🥰
Love benidorm entertainment is excellent.
I've never heard of any school breaking up for summer holidays on July 6th mate before
😂😂 the school holidays start end of June in Scotland
@@carolsmith1030 mad that mine don't break up till like last week of July
School holidays in ireland since end of June enjoy your trip lee
I feel that way about Turkey now , always love my USA holidays, got dragged kicking and screaming to Turkey last year and been back a few times , love it.
I think from memory 'Ians' was fully booked till the 28th June, except for a cancellation.
Hopefully they found you a nice table outside. Best restaurant in Benedorm from what I've seen......
Would love to go to Benidorm.
Why? Are you blind, deaf and dumb?
If I'm on vacation, I will pay more for the beer to look at the ocean. Plus, I'm sure the rent is a lot more for those ocean-front shops.
I stay at that hotel everytime I go to Benidorm it’s a fantastic hotel and great location. You have to get some food out of the halfway house excellent food in there, also out the hotel and go right the pub that’s on the corner has great prices and great pints
What calendar are you using Lee !!! 2-3 weeks in London for holidays 😂
Watching with a glass of wine and we are in Benidorm in 4 weeks 😊
Next time you do a school holidays video, try going in the school holidays!
The Scottish school summer holidays have started
It's started for some schools. My daughter has broke up.
Sounds like you avoided the full school holidays like the plague lol
@@TheMacMaster Which school do they go to.
Hey I know the feeling . I am falling apart . legs not to good now . I am using a walking stick now . xx❤
great vlog lee
Totally agree with your comments About benidorm lee great place it just as you say its what you make it 😎😎
Hope you enjoyed your stay in Benidorm ❤xxx
Maybe I'm in a minority but I just don't like these foreign package holidays. I don't understand why people who go on them look down their noses at English holiday resorts. Give me Torquay, Whitby, Lyme Regis or Runswick Bay any day of the week.
Hi mate them view's look great benidorm is my favourite holiday place I'll be there Thursday afternoon what can you recommend at sherry's bar think I should go
Mister Macmaster! Lee that guy on the scooter, what speed was he doing 😳 🤔 😂🎉
Lol. 😂 faster than my Taycan.
@@TheMacMaster 😄👍
I saw that Lol 😂 I was there same day as lee.
Phil & Janice will know what the tapas was called!
Actually, head to North Shore or inland to Stanley Park and Blackpool also has some nice quiet spots away from the bustling Golden Mile! With occasional sunshine!
I was in Beni 5 years ago for my dads 60th we had a ball was our first time (my parents n sis 6th time in 2019) they go approx twice a year and just love it. I hope to get back again someday. I 100% agree with you deffo not Blackpool in the sun anytime i've heard say that its cos they've not been and also been snooty about it too. I loved the pubs Hotel California & the western bars on the strip spent a lotta time there that week.
Only Scottish school hols atm rest of UK still to break up for summer.
Looks absolutely beautiful 😍
benidorm, benidorm benidorm...oi oi oi, ..........great video as usual
If your bank is Santander they don't charge you for withdrawals
Make the most of it chill
Benidorm is great, I love the place anytime of the year, with or without the family.
Can you do a Paella review Lee? 🤩
Good video 😊
i love Blackpool too and the people r so friendly
The bloke from Bourmouth, reckoning it`s too hot in Benidorm is wearing the wrong colour hat and shirt. a white hat and shirt will make a significant difference.
We just got back stayed in the sol pelicanos kids are kids just having a good time we went to sherrys you were right the food is brilliant
Try FOODLAND, it's a wee cafe in behind the crown& insomnia nightclub! Good food , lovely service & very reasonably priced 😊
Went June going back Oct👍❤️
Looks very quiet Lee 😁😁👍👍
Good one
Fact check! It's three weeks until most UK state schools start their holidays - 25 July. I don't see many children in this video.
Fact check,in aberdeenshire we started school holidays last Friday 😊
Cant wait to get there now Lee and im on the front of Levante beach with a balcony so no need to pay for expensive drinks , €1.90 bottle of wine in my apartment sea across the road plus people watching sorted lol 😊
My kind of holiday ❤
Really enjoying your short break Lee. I love reading all the haters comments on here,to hear them they are all world wide travel experts 😂 keep putting on these holiday vloggs ,I love ❤ em 😊
If you get the chance, try Sherpa in the old town for Indian/Asia food....Best Pad Thai ever!!👍
I prefer English seaside towns. They have more character and charm. Benidorm feels soulless to me. Those concrete hotels make the place look sterile and unwelcoming. Be honest, people only go for the monotonous hot weather. Not my thing at all.
Always better back street off the sea front for me 😎👍
Next street up from the one you went up there’s a local place that sells fresh prawns it’s called La Barca highly recommend it
Agree people don't like benidorm don't have rude about it, maybe not for everyone but enjoy myself and entertain us great🎉
Not one mention in the comments re the knockers 😮
We were there in April really gone down hill be a long time before we go back
