1st time In Benidorm? March 1978 with my brother. Met who was to become my wife - married 2 years later and just celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary!! Last time in Benidorm? Few weeks ago when it rained and rained and rained all week !! Love the vlogs Lucy x
Always remember my first time in Benidorm, great memories and times. Still love it to this day. Always something going on and happening. Can't wait to get back.
I first went to Benidorm when i was 18 in 1972. Obviously a lot different to what it is now. I didnt go back till 1997 and been going every year sometimes twice since then (apart from Covid) so i think i must enjoy it. Tried other places but always gravitate back to Beni xxx
1st time 1982 with my bf & his parents. Stayed at Ruidor. Had never been abroad before- remember going to a tiny bar in the old town run by a drag queen. Had a Blue Lagoon cocktail and got v tipsy! Returned with girlfriends in 2010, last minute deal… totally loved it and been back 17times since (twice already this year.) Now feels like home from home. Love the whole of the Costa Blanca. ❤is in Benidorm. You know we love you and what you do Lucy- onwards and upwards- keep doing what you do chick. Xx
The first time i came to Benidorm was1985 loved it then. A lot of things have changed but still love it as much now coming out again in a few weeks and i can't wait 🎉❤🎉
i was a Benidorm virgin 6 years ago and i can say it is the best place we have aver been to you have everything you want there and it is not Blackpool the views are stunning i have been coming now 6 years and my husband has been coming there for about 10 years and its nothing like the tv show Benidorm amazing place and I am always happy to go back and the Benidorm palace is amazing show you will love it it like watching a full production at London Eastend
The first time i went to benidorm was with my family in december 2018 and again with my family and i came out again in may this year and that was on my own i love the hole of benidorm its a lovley place keep safe and keep smiling
What a good blog its nice to see people take there first steps to benidorm i realy like benidorm cannot wait to get back over sometime next year keep safe and keep smiling
Our first time was 2015 as i wasa late flyer, to scared to fly. We loved it. We been back most year since n back again this year. You can not beat Benidorm Sun, Sea, Sand Plenty too do and Reasonable Prices. 🙂
my wife and I came over at the end of March absolutely loved it , spent most of our few days in the old town and did one night in the new town , im back in September with the lads on a stag do so I'm still a benidorm virgin in that sense lol as it will be mental , hopefully my wife and I will be back again next year for a few days again
Our first time in benidorm In march , I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ it , cant wait to go back. Was mad on the programme benidorm , so went all the places it was fimed , loved Neptune's, Queen was amazing, looking in a couple years time 2 staying on the camp site over the winter months, defo got the benidorm bug 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Seems like the Blackpool with sun is a running theme! I was surprised how clean it was when I first visited. I tend to give the new town a wide berth, although there are some nice restaurants there. Much prefer the vibe of the old town. Going next month and can't wait!
1st time was July 1979 two weeks, told to be careful in bars etc for "watered down" drinks so spent two weeks drinking Pernod "No Ice" and bottles of sprite Never touched Pernod since.
Its my second time coming out to benidorm and I can't wait for it now and I loved it so much when we were over there last year in September time Its so fantastic and we loved the acts and we loved the restaurants roll on 10 days time for the 2nd time we love it so much xxx
first time in benidorm was 10 years ago didnt think i would like when i booked it all i kept thinking was what have i done , but love it was there for christmas then in march then back again in november . christmas was by far the best holiday christmas day in shorts/t shirt carnt be bad
Coming to Benidorm for the first time - countdown at 4 days. Partner has followed your page since the start I've learned so much watching your content can't wait to experience new food visit the falls go on the glass bottom boat and so much more I'm very excited party time 🎉🤗
My first time in Benidorm was 2017 for the Fiestas! We have been back every year since and in between. It cannot be beaten for entertainment. Love your videos Lucy!
my first time was the old town, really liked it , did some fishing from the houbour , not sure if you can fish there now , new town is for the more lively people
Proof if it were needed that the people who slag Benidorm have never set foot in the town.I have personally recommended Benidorm to a great many friends/ family and work mates,not one complaint in 4o years.Some found it a bit rough and ready in the early days but almost all have gone back many times.The Benidorm disease!.
Friends dragged my wife and i kicking and screaming to Benidorm in 1989 and have returned at least once every year since,except for covid years.Apart from the usual clubs on the strip we loved the singing bars such as the traffic lights,boulevard,dolly daydreams,shooters,palladium etc and all gone now apart from shooters.A whole generation of great singers dead and gone.Still we still come and enjoy ourselves.
Hi Lucy my first time in Benidorm 1973 as a 12 year old with my Parents and two sisters looking at the faded receipt half board including flights 389 pounds. i live in the south of England and mostly when i say I'm off to Benidorm people say oh how could you. A lot of the people you interview tend to be Northamptonshire north wards I'm afraid like in England it is the old North South divide .And for many Southerners when they see all these Bars and hear continually of Stags and Hens Benidorm lives up to its Stereotype we keep hearing about Blackpool by the sea not so much Bournemouth by the sea there in lies the problem. i personally have a lovely time there and some of the scenes behind you in this video looked Gorgeous David
The first time I went to Benidorm I was 5 and now I am 55 and still going I’ve seen many changes we now go 3 times a year and always find something different to do every time
Hubby booked September just after my 60 th birthday was a surprise but slip up to my neybours ha ha,look forward as never been here ,thanks for vblogs very helpful lucy .
Menu del dia is my favourite Spanish lunchtime treat. First time in Benidorm we only found it offered in one restaurant. Menu of the day is usually a choice of 5 starters/ mains plus a drink and postre. Did once mistakenly order pulpo, which is octopus. For a change Alicante is not just an airport, but an old city well worth a visit if you like Spanish architecture, customs and food and 45 minutes away.
A'reyt Lucy. First time I came there was to meet my girlfriend, who had a holiday already booked. I arrived with my rucksack and could only get one night in a hotel at short notice, but I was used to backpacking, not suitcase holidays. She had booked me a flat for the week, when I got there. I expected Blackpool and wanted to see historic Spain, but I enjoyed it, which was the main thing.
My first time 20 years ago , the thing that sticks out was the then thomson rep on the coach from alicante saying if this us your 1st timevto benidorm then i promise you you'll come back ...and i did 35 times ...not been since december 2019 though . The longest spell ive had away since i started going , some years i went 3 or 4 times ☀️☀️🍺🍺🍹🍷🥂
Definitely remember my first time! Absolutely loved it and now I want to share that so will be coming back in august with my gf and the kids. My mate on the other hand can’t see the attraction going again but then he spent everyday asleep in the hotel because he couldn’t cope with the heat and only went out at night into the new town lol
Our first time this year too, came in April, it certainly exceeded our expectations. It’s so clean, lots to do and see, weather was great too. We walked a lot, explored the old town, would of been useful to have known about this channel as newbie’s we did miss out on some areas, glad we follow you now so when we return next year we will be more knowledgeable 😉 I really had to persuade my husband to come he had a very negative view, and he can’t wait to return 😂😂
My first trip was 1979, three lads on tour. Got ripped off the first night. £1 a pint in one bar then £3 in the next. There seemed to be more excursions then. I remember a trip into the countryside that included a donkey ride. There was the BBQ with unlimited wine too - mix the red and white to make rose! A medieval banquet with knights jousting, sadly a bit dull, possibly because there wasn't any free wine. And we were entertained at the relatively new Benidorm Palace. The bouncers patrolled the place carrying big batons: we behaved ourselves. Can't remember the strip or the Square, possibly they came later. The hotel entertainment was pretty good, we did venture to the old town though and I'm pretty sure we went to Vincents. A good holiday. Not seen the other two guys for several decades now.
Hi Lucy, Love your channel. I've been to Benidorm twice now, loved your videos and met you in Winners Bar. Returning twice this year, on our first trip we'll be driving from the UK to Gibraltar via Benidorm in aid of British Armed Forces charities, we'd love you to be part of our video, I'll be filming it all the way for our channel, either way I will pop by to say hello. Let me know if you want to meet up, Dean, Travelling Veteran.
Yes. But I prefer Torremolinos, which has a more diverse nightlife. Like Pattaya, but without 12 hours on a plane. Benidorm doesn't cater for singles IMHO, so have not returned since my partner died. Great for couples/families/stag parties etc.
My first time was 1978, got cornered in an alley and hit over the head by one of the shoeshine boys boxes. Then caught a hotel employee searching through my mates trousers that were hanging over a chair in our room. Great memories.😮
I used to love Blackpool when i was a kid ❤ so i don't take it as the insult that's it's often intended as. Saying that haven't been to Blacpool for 20 odd years i don't think xx
@@LucyYoungTBE We ADORE Blackpool!! We think it suffers a bit like Benidorm does, where people who have never been there assume that it's not for them. Both places have loads to offer for people of all ages and with a wide range of interests. ❤🧡💛
@@LucyYoungTBE You're on, Lucy! A weekend in Blackpool with Benidorm Stuff and the Chatter Guys!! Tim is already planning the schedule and Colin's planning what to pack! ❤️💙🦀xxxx
Hi. At the start of July there will be 500 Preston North End fans heading to Benidorm. On Wednesday 5th July at around 1pm 7 coaches will be parked up at the Ibrox Bar to take them to a game. Please can you ask for Mad Mick and interview him for an episode. Many thanks.
Hi Lucy Tam from Bathgate here over 20 years ago we started going to benidorm stayed in the myra apartments but not once did I think it was like Blackpool good to see people coming out and enjoying it why wouldn't you
First time I went I went on a stag do with a group of RAF lads who'd just come back from a tour of duty and we're up for a good time. The second night we went to see someone called Sticky Victoria. The things we saw during that show will remain with me forever. I've never or since seen anything like it. The act reduced the battle hardened RAF lads into utter silence. They we're never the same again for the rest of the holiday. 😂
Hi there, myself, wife and mother-in-law are coming to Benidorm as virgins in September, and we are interested in tasting the tapas, and would be grateful for your recommendations? Also, some of the best places for an English breakfast? We are staying in an airbnb near Placa de la Senyoria.
You're not far from Tapas Alley there, loads to try in that area. Also Tapas Square which we did a video on a while sgo. For a good English brekkie round there I'd recommend Caspers and Refuel 👍 Enjoy x
I went on June 3rd and left on the 10th, stayed at the avenida, really good location, I found the old town really good, also calle gerona is fantastic for bars, the stag and hen parties were really well behaved, only down side I found was the sheer amount of vomiting going on, it was from one end to the other, it's not the best setting for a drink
Hi I have been to Benidorm last November for the very first time and once is enough for me. The weather was lovely and sunny warm but not to hot and humid just right. The Don Pancho Hotel was lovey one of the best hotels I have stayed in and the food was excellent. The Old town is lovely and historic with quaint narrow streets and beautiful, the promenades are lovely and the beaches looked lovely to. The majority of Benidorm is just one club and bar after another. The resort sadly caters for those who like to drink lots of booze, watch sleazy and none sleazy entrainment, laying by a pool and sun bathing on the beach so if you are not into that there is not much for you in Benidorm.
How can Benidorm be compared in any way with Blackpool..?! Benidorm is getting to be like Miami and Blackpool is a run down cold, poor English seaside town with nothing going for it, sadly.
Just come back from Benidorm today Thursday 22nd June. Great place. Beach cleaned every day. Only downside is the very smutty tea shirts on display. Not very family friendly as every shop selling t shirts have the sleazy ones on the front display. Quit embarrassing for many parents. Think the authorities need to address this
My first time was sept 1978 rained the entire week, had a brilliant time came back every year since, retired in 2016 and now come to Benidorm upto 5 times a year, next visit July 8th.
My happy place.❤. Old Town, my favourite.❤
My partner and i have been coming to benidorm since 2009 my first time on a plane loved it cant get enough of benidorm wee come over 2 or three times a year been over twice this year coming back in october for another 10 days xx

Hi Lucy my first time in Benidorm 1973 as a 12 year old with my Parents and two sisters looking at the faded receipt half board including flights 389 pounds. i live in the south of England and mostly when i say I'm off to Benidorm people say oh how could you. A lot of the people you interview tend to be Northamptonshire north wards I'm afraid like in England it is the old North South divide .And for many Southerners when they see all these Bars and hear continually of Stags and Hens Benidorm lives up to its Stereotype we keep hearing about Blackpool by the sea not so much Bournemouth by the sea there in lies the problem. i personally have a lovely time there and some of the scenes behind you in this video looked Gorgeous David

Menu del dia is my favourite Spanish lunchtime treat. First time in Benidorm we only found it offered in one restaurant. Menu of the day is usually a choice of 5 starters/ mains plus a drink and postre. Did once mistakenly order pulpo, which is octopus. For a change Alicante is not just an airport, but an old city well worth a visit if you like Spanish architecture, customs and food and 45 minutes away.
Most Spanish restaurants do menu del dia It's Usually half a bottle. wine per person ./ or beer
Well Lucy great video as usual So many really positive comments. You are becoming a fabulous ambassador for Benidorm Keep it up
A'reyt Lucy. First time I came there was to meet my girlfriend, who had a holiday already booked. I arrived with my rucksack and could only get one night in a hotel at short notice, but I was used to backpacking, not suitcase holidays. She had booked me a flat for the week, when I got there. I expected Blackpool and wanted to see historic Spain, but I enjoyed it, which was the main thing.
My first time 20 years ago , the thing that sticks out was the then thomson rep on the coach from alicante saying if this us your 1st timevto benidorm then i promise you you'll come back ...and i did 35 times ...not been since december 2019 though . The longest spell ive had away since i started going , some years i went 3 or 4 times ☀️☀️🍺🍺🍹🍷🥂
Definitely remember my first time! Absolutely loved it and now I want to share that so will be coming back in august with my gf and the kids.
My mate on the other hand can’t see the attraction going again but then he spent everyday asleep in the hotel because he couldn’t cope with the heat and only went out at night into the new town lol
Our first time this year too, came in April, it certainly exceeded our expectations. It’s so clean, lots to do and see, weather was great too. We walked a lot, explored the old town, would of been useful to have known about this channel as newbie’s we did miss out on some areas, glad we follow you now so when we return next year we will be more knowledgeable 😉 I really had to persuade my husband to come he had a very negative view, and he can’t wait to return 😂😂
Great to hear!! 😁👍
Kept coming out my flip flops in new town first time. Wear trainers now 👍
My first trip was 1979, three lads on tour. Got ripped off the first night. £1 a pint in one bar then £3 in the next. There seemed to be more excursions then. I remember a trip into the countryside that included a donkey ride. There was the BBQ with unlimited wine too - mix the red and white to make rose! A medieval banquet with knights jousting, sadly a bit dull, possibly because there wasn't any free wine. And we were entertained at the relatively new Benidorm Palace. The bouncers patrolled the place carrying big batons: we behaved ourselves. Can't remember the strip or the Square, possibly they came later. The hotel entertainment was pretty good, we did venture to the old town though and I'm pretty sure we went to Vincents. A good holiday. Not seen the other two guys for several decades now.
£1 a pint in 1979 you were ripped off!
We will be Benidorm virgins week on Saturday lol cant wait 😊
What made you decide to go?
Hi Lucy,
Love your channel.
I've been to Benidorm twice now, loved your videos and met you in Winners Bar.
Returning twice this year, on our first trip we'll be driving from the UK to Gibraltar via Benidorm in aid of British Armed Forces charities, we'd love you to be part of our video, I'll be filming it all the way for our channel, either way I will pop by to say hello.
Let me know if you want to meet up,

The blackpool with sun comment is kind of frustrating when its so much more than that, and actually, nothing like it.
I’m here now with my husband and loving it. I want to be in your next video. Do you know any good supermarkets? X
👍 Keep converting people!

im going there for my 1st time on july 10th for 5 days

Does anyone from South of the Thames holiday in Benidorm 🤔🤔
Never sounds it

Hi I have been to Benidorm last November for the very first time and once is enough for me. The weather was lovely and sunny warm but not to hot and humid just right. The Don Pancho Hotel was lovey one of the best hotels I have stayed in and the food was excellent. The Old town is lovely and historic with quaint narrow streets and beautiful, the promenades are lovely and the beaches looked lovely to. The majority of Benidorm is just one club and bar after another. The resort sadly caters for those who like to drink lots of booze, watch sleazy and none sleazy entrainment, laying by a pool and sun bathing on the beach so if you are not into that there is not much for you in Benidorm.
Very accurate description. Well done for your honesty
Sounds like a great holiday!
I think that the tv show Benidorm and it's characters didn't do the place any favours ,it looked like skeggy in the sun.
Two words *52 THOUSAND*
First time I was 18 second time 22 and I only went then for a mates stag party! Never again will I return!!
How can Benidorm be compared in any way with Blackpool..?! Benidorm is getting to be like Miami and Blackpool is a run down cold, poor English seaside town with nothing going for it, sadly.
First went in 1965 it was beautiful sadly the British have ruined it.
Just come back from Benidorm today Thursday 22nd June. Great place. Beach cleaned every day. Only downside is the very smutty tea shirts on display. Not very family friendly as every shop selling t shirts have the sleazy ones on the front display. Quit embarrassing for many parents. Think the authorities need to address this
