To me there is something homely feeling and comforting about returning to the Old Town after a mad night in the Strip area. Dont want to stay anywhere else in Benidorm now than the Old town. Good walk back too from the Strip to help burn off a little of the excesses consumed. ;-]
Brilliant video staying at the area that you finished the video at the end of October much prefer the old town it’s the nicest part for me and we often stop at the chicken restaurant to get a wee takeaway for our apartment if we don’t feel like dining out the staff are so nice ❤ love Tapas so will be looking for a nice quiet one when we are over thanks again Lucy your videos are just great ,hope to see you in person soon 🎉
Ahhhhh that's my favourite part of Benidorm. Tapas circle looks a lot nicer in the dark lol. I actually remember the Plaza Triangular when it was a triangle and the market was there at the end of the new Av Mediterráneo lol
Great to see the Old Town busy..coming out on the 27th so will pay a visit to some of the bars etc youve shown us..Yet another GREAT Post Lucy..Thank You 🙏..😎🌞🍺
Best area of Benidorm Lucy-please do the tapas tour-handy for those of us who hardly speak English far less Spanish unlike yourself😅See you very shortly ❤
Please, please do a vid on the circle Lucy. 👍😄 We’ve eaten in a few there, waaaay better than the touristy tapas alley and usually much cheaper too. La Mar de Tapas being our perfect favourite, cheap as chips I think a glass of house red + tapa is something like €1.60 😁 The fideua she makes there is awesome, sadly not been on the last few visits.
Lovely, it looks clean, safe, friendly and well maintained. what is the weather like in the Winter?, say November December January, is it cold and wet or quite warm and sunny? I was thinking of getting some Winter sun.
I've just got back on Weds from Benidorm and some of the rooftop bars are only open Weds-Sun at the moment so missed out on Planta 20 and La Terrasse (Port Benidorm), both closed on the Mon and Tue nights i was having a wander around 😐
Hi Lucy Tam from Bathgate here great part of the old town hotels are in a great location at that part of benidorm stayed in 4 in that part of town looking at the Bristol for next month
Hi Lucy, we’re coming back for Christmas but struggling to book somewhere for Christmas lunch. ( tried curry leaf & cafe Benidorm but both closed) Is there any chance you could do a vlog about what’s open. We’re staying in the old town but not limited to eating there. Open to suggestions if you could please help x
Hi, a lot of places get booked up for Christmas Dinner the year before as there are a lot of regulars that come year after year and as soon as they finish their Crimbo dins they rebook for the following year lol I know Planet Benidorm have just said they're taking bookings, it's in the new town though. also Yorkshire Pride, Winning Post and Beer garden usually operate on a walk in basis on Christmas day
@@LucyYoungTBE great thank you I’m visiting the 1-5th of November will be out drinking the 2nd 3 and 4th could I meet u one day for drink I’m travelling solo ?
We stayed at the fabulous Innside Costablanca for adults only with a short walk to the old town. We did venture to the strip and were not impressed. It's smelly and dirty and needs to be regenerated - soon!
I love Alicante ciudad. So many tourists just bypass Alicante en route to Benidorm and the rest of the Costa Blanca, so they miss out the best bit. In many ways I am so glad they do as Alicante retains its true character and never feels overwhelmed by tourists. You can have your beach holiday there too. It’s City beach is always busy year round and the Playa San Juan in the suburbs is both huge and beautiful.
I hope the service in the Old town is better than what we experienced on our trip this week. Everyone was rude, with the exception of the staff in Romans on the seafront (near McDonald's). I don't expect staff in the night time bars to have great customer service but I'm basing my experience on when we were out during the day (food and drink). The staff seemed, miserable, some came across aggressive, it didn't ruin our holiday but it was really noticeable. Such a shame when you're handing over your hard earned to be treated this way. Sorry for the rant, keep up the good work 👍
I love benidorm but have to say its definitely not so safe for a single male, I've been here 4 times and 2 of those someone tried to mug me, the first time was by a Spanish woman, I kept my hands in my pockets and easily pushed her away with my shoulder but tonight 21st of October even though I saw someone and crossed the road it was a man dressed up as a woman, it was a full on assault, really had to struggle to get away, very disappointed, it was towards the old town end of the strip
Back again for Xmas wife loves the old town, I end up weighed down with shopping bag's before heading to the sailors bar overlooking the marina. 😅
My left ear really enjoyed this video !
still only 1 ear??
@@LucyYoungTBEYeah but it’s not the end of the world,keep up the good work 👍
@@tonemc6047 will have to check the mics again. apologies x
Yes - would love to see what these bars have to offer.
👍
Old town is stunning tapas alley is fantastic
Love this part lucy I always stay this end ❤ love your videos
Love it we are coming for Christmas for a month can't wait we stay in the old town but go wondering all over
Not long home from 10 nights there, I always stay in the old town, love it much more relaxed pace than the new town.cant wait to get back.❤

Great hotels in the old town would be great planning next year and never been to the old town.
Another great video Lucy, do you do videos of transport eg trams and trains getting to valencia and Denia, alicante hope to see you dec xx
Please, please do a vid on the circle Lucy. 👍😄 We’ve eaten in a few there, waaaay better than the touristy tapas alley and usually much cheaper too.

Live the old town but i dont like the tower at all, i dont think its inkeeping with the older parts .
Hi Lucy

For an autumn/ non-beach weekend. Get off the plane and stay in Alicante. A beautiful Spanish City
