Watched Benidorm on ITV (with Johnny Vega et al) for the first time tonight... didn`t see the first series. Absolutely hilarious. It would put me off a package holiday though.. although I think I could manage a day trip.

That programme does NOT do Benidorm any justice. You have to go there to appreciate it. Each to his own as they say. I found that there are bars you wouldn't go in (I wouldn't ;)) and some that are good :thumbsup: You just have to see for yourself. It takes all sorts and all sorts go to benidorm - there's something for everyone :)

I believe you. I went on the first package holiday in my life two years ago .. to Majorca. The Island was beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The hotel was good but by the pool area it was just like the Tv programme and we stayed well away.. I could cope with that in small doses but not for a fortnight. :)

just come back from Port Aventura - had a great time, although frightened myself to death on the one of the rollercoasters !!! :eek::eek:

Highly recommend it - stayed in Hotel Caribe, very spacious rooms, clean with good facilities on site - with entry into park included (water park doesnt open til 24th) and express passes aswell which were very handy - frequent trains back and forth from the hotel to the park too

If more peeps on here took any notice of me - they too could lead a more enjoyable life!!


Glad you enjoyed, i'ts alway a worry when you reccomend something, that the other party will be disappointed.

Karma is the currency of thanks!!!
