Photos of our visit to Benidorm in Spain

These photographs were all taken on our holiday to Benidorm in Spain, we stayed at the hotel Regente. I also have loads of pictures of Mundomar (A great Spanish Zoo) and Guadalest (A place in the Spanish mountains with incredible views). I would be tempted to go back for another holiday to Spain just to go to Mundomar again!
The holiday was great, we had never been to Spain and I had been worried about the bad things you sometimes hear about Spain and Spanish holidays in general (lager louts and topless bars don't make a great holiday for a 7 year old), but we did not have any problems (I am not sure I would want to visit in the summer holidays though!). The weather was sunny almost all of the time and it was just about warm enough to swim in the beautiful sea, we did try the hotel Rengente's pool, but that was freezing. Apart from the very cold outdoor pool the Hotel Regente was great, it did seem more aimed at older people, but there was plenty to do in the area. So if you want to go to Spain and are looking for a hotel to stay at in Benidorm then I would recommend the hotel Regente. Virtually everybody spoke English, so there was no need to worry about converting English to Spanish and Spanish to English all the time, but I did find Spanish interesting and tried out the few bits I had learned. One day I would like to learn to speak Spanish properly.
