Born Again Benidorm
In the high summer, in certain 'party' areas, Benidorm PARTIES!
You're likely to be all too aware of the current 'not spots' for holidaymakers in the Mediterranean: tales of hordes of boozers; wild 'antics' in public places; and a minority of reps who could out-party the most enthusiastic holiday raver.
Story upon story has kept the printing ink manufacturers in business as the tabloids have regaled us with some of the details. We won't go into them here!
One thing's certain - the tourist authorities in those resorts will be thinking how they can devise effective plans to bring it under control.
And those wishing to book their next holiday will be glad that other resorts are ahead of the game - like Benidorm.
In the 80's, Benidorm did cop for something of a bum rap. The worst excesses of large scale mass tourism took their toll, compounded by the 'lager lout' phenomena, which thrived under the hot sun.
The authorities had to form a vision of how they wished to see Benidorm, and a practical plan for getting there!
- To be sustainable, tourist development had to be properly planned
- Key factors of competitiveness, awareness of holidaymakers needs, and a willingness to meet them were adopted
- Benidorm worked to deliver overall quality tourism Today's tourists are well experienced travellers able to compare resort conditions.
Now, we've got to be realistic. In the high summer, in certain 'party' areas, Benidorm PARTIES. It can be lively, boisterous, and not everyone's glass of sangria. So, know what you want, choose sensibly...and you'll get what you want.
Want to be near the beach? The nightlife? Or most definitely away from it???
Then give careful thought to which accommodation and location you pick, and prepare to enjoy!
After all... 5 million visitors a year can't be wrong.
