Slap bang in the Costa Blanca, Benidorm's sunshine is part of what makes it one of the best holiday destinations in the Mediterranean but it also has a unique micro-climate created by the surrounding hills that makes it so very special.

Open to the south on the double curve of its two long beaches beaches, Benidorm is protected from the winds by the mountains Sierra Helada to the east, Aitana to the north and Tossal de la Cala to the west. The result?

Fabulous Holidays all year round, with
summer sun and temperate winters.
