- Lucy asks the opinion of tourist, do they think the prices of food and drink have gone up ?
Benidorm is located on the Costa Blanca, Spain. Famous for it's beaches, bars, restaurants, nightlife, entertainment, hotels, sightseeing, party atmosphere, excursions, tours and sun. It is not only one of the top holiday destinations in Spain but one of the best tourist hotspots in the whole of Europe. British and Irish tourists love to travel to Benidorm, being one of the best resorts for a package holiday, but it is also well loved by many European travellers, and of course the Spanish themselves. It is an all year round holiday resort, the good weather means there is something to offer visitors of all nationalities and ages, and you will always find things to do and places to go. On our UA-cam channel we bring you travel vlogs which show you in depth everything Benidorm has to offer. We hope you enjoy, soak up the sunshine and subscribe to our channel.

I love these vox pops. It's so nice to see the lovely and friendly Brits having a nice time. The Bristolian girls were sweethearts.
I love it when you speak to the visitors and get their views - everyone is so friendly, positive and enthusiastic about Benidorm.
Thank you very much. I have always had a thing about Benidorm and never wanted to visit. Last week we attended a wedding in Calpe and had two nights to kill before going to the wedding. We booked The Mecure in Benidorm and I watched a few of your videos. Because of you we found a few lovely places to eat, by the huge paella dish. Went to bars that were 90% Spanish, ordering and chatting in my basic Spanish. We had a lovely time and will definitely return; never thought I would say that, thanks again 👍x
That's brilliant, love reading these comments. Hope you have a long and happy future with Benidorm hehe xx
It's interesting to see everyone's opinion on prices. The good thing about Benidorm is that there is something for everyone's budget
ive booked up for February 23 as i come every February looking forward to seeing you again ,
Hi its really good blog and nice to see people saying differnt things on the prices in benidorm and it still a lovley place to go keep safe a keep smiling thank you again lucy
Coming out to benidorm on the 17th of October. Can't wait
Thanks Lucy for keeping us updated 👍😀
Popped into v winners bar sat night massive storm hope everything is OK in your bar today after all that rain. Nice to have met you in your bar keep up the gd work Lucy.
Thanks for the update lucy
I was in Benidorm last June and came back from Mallorca a week ago, prices for food and drink were, on average, 50% more in Mallorca. Had a great time in Mallorca but Benidorm has something for everyone and all budgets.
People say Uncle Peds is the cheapest in town but directly opposite in the 4 star Riviera they do bottles of Estrella ( the red 5.2% one from Barcelona not the 4.8 one from murcia ) for 90c ! Their front terrace open to the general public has much more confortable seats and their screen for the footy is the biggest and clearest I've seen . Waiter service too .
I agree very cheap in there popular place if you want some cheap beer that's v place to go
Hi Lucy, we were over a week ago (great to catch up with you and get a wee photo.) 😊
We visited loads of places we'd seen on here. (Kay had a list 😂)
We went to tapas alley one evening and for 6 tapas and 2 beers it was €18... great value.
We're back over for Christmas and New Year and still have loads of places to see. Thanks for the brilliant videos. xx
Hi Lucy thanks for another informative video was in benidorm in August had a great time still as cheap as chips
Love the two slappers from Bristol 👍😁
Me too, lol
Just got back. As an example a few years back, used to leave our apartment and have a few in the 4 kings where you could get a bottle of Amstel for a euro. Now it’s €1.75. All in all though, drinks remain relatively cheap and there are still good deals/bargains to be had. Food is also up a little but the value for money is still excellent, China garden, Nepali tandoori and the new Brazilian opposite winners were all favourites.
Minch bag
Just got back today prices gone up a little but not that bad
Great stuff, as always, Lucy. I think that there has been a price hike on spirit prices more than on draught and bottles beers but compared to elsewhere, we're still probably the cheapest resort in Europe.
Coming to beni with the lads 3 weeks today can’t wait
Just back from super 10 days. Hotel Montesol, super location and great value. Food in canteen also very good and staff fantastic. Very close to super gym fitness dreams. 🇮🇪
Great vlog Lucy. Booked for next Feb
brilliant work chum, keep up the good work.
Another great vlog…thanks Lucy. We live in morecambe and you can find a pint of lager for £2.40 ish
It was great to get to meet you last Saturday evening,.
I think the price's generally have increased , still cracking good value for money thou.
Best wishes and good luck Lucy.
Benidorm is still great value when you're out and about, but I do feel that the hotel prices are way more than they should be - many £100-150 per night for very small rooms.
last month we had a week in Benidorm then a week in Palma Nova Majorca, i can comfortly say Benidorm is still cheap, its brilliant.
Thank's for that. Really useful and entertaining. Have subscribed. Look forward to seeing more.👍👏🥂
Thanks for subscribing 😁
Excellent vid as usual
Hi Lucy, thank you for saying hello to the Glasgow Boys last weekend. Thanks for my request to say hello and thank you sincerely for youre posts, which gave us so much info....much ❤️
No probs at all xx
Hi over here just now things are cheaper here than they are back home in the UK so I can’t complain 😁
At home you don’t have to pay for flights and a hotel. Of course going out in Benidorm is cheaper than home. But for the price and hotel prices you can go to places much cheaper.
Another great topical video ..prices are still good for Benidorm ....my local Spanish owned watering hole is 2.50 eur for a Litro 👍been that price for 9 yrs 😁
Amazing video Lucy cheers, back in benidorm for the fiestas first time back since November 2019 due to covid
Please go up the the Cheap and Cheerful Lucy. Would love to see their prices now
Great video-we will b there on Thursday hun-hope the weather will b ok -might have to buy u a san mig instead of a cocktail- lol.will look out 4 u xx
As I prefer a week away on my own I like to go half-board, not being much of a drinker a couple of bottles and live entertainment suits me. Hope to be there next year.
Prices never go down, visited 2 weeks ago, still relatively cheap.
Hello Lucy ,regardless any changes of prices,being in Benidorm will always be like cruising on a Transatlantic "SHIP" !!
Definitely cheaper than here in the UK. Uncle Peds is probably the cheapest in town but depends on where you go.
Hi Lucy 👋🏼 we are home 10 days now . Missing you all at “Winners”
And looking forward to getting back over soon .
Hi Lucy - always went A/I so we could budget our holiday but lately depending "what you drink & what quality & the surroundings Benidorm is head & shoulders above the rest of Spain, at one time A/I was very good value for money but now with the hotels increasing their prices there is no need to go A/I - the bars offers etc can be cheaper
You don't go A.I in benidorm
Benidorm always a good summer and holiday there
Benidorm always good
Thanks Lucy
What is the best value for money.
@@chrisayling3882 I like last stop sports bar and John and Josephs. Ambassador playa bar is cheap as well.
Brilliant informative video, looking forward to our holiday in Benidorm in October this year. 😊
Good video ☺️👍 lucy
cannot wait to be here later on!
He we have been going benidorm for years , yer the prices hv gone up put still cheaper than UK
According to the prices we pay here in Australia, these prices are unbelievably low.
great video, Lucy. not only is Spanish lager better, but it's also cheaper in the local bars, especially in the old town. the bars along the levante beach and new town, tend to be more expensive.
Agreed taking advantage of the views Plus tourists still think it's cheap Residents don't
Ate out yesterday favourite Spanish Restaurant Los. Montaditos 9 euros menu del dia for years and years Now 11 Euros 4 courses Took my 3rd course home as too much food .
Prices not rising as much as Rip off Britain Lucy 👍
I'm an Amstel man so €1.50 will do very nicely thank you!
I am as well Walt and the Estrella....
The cheapest bar is jumping jack plus cheap food plus the Why not bar 😂😂
Just booked to come back for a month in a months time and our campervans fees are still the same as last year's as is the electric price. Was very surprised
Thank you Lucy 😊
well said.
In Belgium, depending on where you are, you often pay 2.50 to 3.5 euros for a 0.20 cl coke. So expensive. Normally the cola bottles were 0.25cl, now suddenly 0.20cl. Get less, pay more in Belgium.
I guess prices have risen everywhere but Benidorm is still much cheaper compared to Ibiza, I'm moving over in 9 weeks! 😃 x
yayyy, wishing you the best of luck 🐾👍❤️
Was over in May 1 euro 50 a pint in bars like night and day bar, £6 in London 😩
I think you also need to take in to account that the rate on the euro is rubbish at the moment so it makes it a bit more expensive, hopefully, not for too much longer x
Hi Lucy I like your videos with MacMaster we are from BARNSLEY IN SOUTH YORKSHIRE hope see you in October
Go to Benidorm every year
Plus went to Majorca in August
Prices in Majorca are shocking compared to Benidorm
So it's Benidorm twice a year from now on
Another plonker who can holiday twice a year ...how do you do it....
When I was in Benidorm at the end of June I thought it was still cheap. My dad and I got a t bone steak with chips, pepper sauce and a can of coke each in the Yorkshire pride all in it was €47 all in its only up €2 from 2019
Sounds good
Hi Lucy. Going November 19-29. Hope to see you then. I find San Miguel is very gassy as are most lagers compared to back home. But as people say it is cheaper. Red Lion 2 charged us 10 euros In June for 2 gin and tonics and 2 Bacardi and coke, local.
Hi Lucy ,can u advice me on some thing ,I have 7 100 euro notes ,can u advice me where I can change them for smaller notes in benidorm ,thanks
spend them 😁👍
There's 20 of us coming In November for the festival... get us on the channel!
We'll try 😁👍
We paid around £150 more for our weeks holiday full board compared to what we have budgeted in the past.
I found lager to still be good value, we were paying 1.50 to 2 euros a pint of either lager or shandy through the day. Cabaret bars at night were around 3.50/4 euros.
Spirit's such as vodka was expensive 5/6 euros at night but you get more than you do here in the UK.
I've recently been to Magaluf and the prices there have gone through the roof looking on average 4 to 5 euros day and night just to sit in a bar without entertainment plus the high cost of tourist tax it makes Benidorm a huge bargain.
After going to Magaluf for over 30 every year that has stopped after this year, never again however we will continue with our lads holiday every year upto now in Benidorm
very cheap for bear then.
Oh that's good news I'm coming over xmas
You need to do a bit on Vincent's in the old town. Love sports bar and lovely food. Also little coopers on old town too. They would make good videos
Been on a few videos we've done, but not for a while. will do an Old Town video soon 👍
With the cost of living i can't afford barbados anymore so benidorm here i come.lol
Tommy's cabaret bar is 450 for 1spirit and mixer
sunny spain!
Hello, We are looking to come out again in the first week of Dec. is it still worthwhile are many bars etc still open
Thank you.
Frankie.
Normally a very quiet time of year, between the Fiestas and Xmas. Christmas crowd don't arrive until around the 20th usually, but this year we have the World Cup.. so not sure how busy it will be.
Oi!!! Blue t shirt fae Dundee was on my bus the other day 😝🤣🤣🏴🏴🏴🏴
I’m coming in November for the fiesta. First time there. Was worried about how much to take with me so thank you for this…..I’ll keep my eyes open for you…..we will be 7 girls on tour 😂
Avoid the bars on the front and on the main Avenida as they are dearer. Go to the old town bars etc. The prices on the strip are dearer but it's much livelier. The most we paid for a drink anywhere was 4.50 euros for a pint. Go off the main drag to have a bevvy then back on it to top night off. Winners bar is a must by the way!
intresting topic from lucy.
@@darrenfoy220 you a scouser!!!! Nice to meet you
@@manuelfg2902 I'm not haha nice to meet you too
Hi Lucy Tam from Bathgate here prices over the last 5 years you can hardly notice the difference , in the uk most measures are 25 mill your deffo getting at least a 50 mill measure over in benidorm so still cheap and the food is never dear especially brekky
Price rises are expected. But how the Marina can justify raising a pint by a euro when most others are still the same doesn't make sense.
The lager in there is like swill anyway how much is it a pint there now 🤨
We as a family have always gone full board,the initial outlay may be greater but on balance we think this way works out cheaper overall.None of us are big eaters but the opportunity is there to eat as much as you want.Watching some of the gluttons making pigs of themselves it would cost them a fortune to eat out.We occasionally eat out and find Benidorm prices reasonable as are the alchoholic drinks.Anyway if you can't blow a bob or two on yourselves what is the point of going on holiday?
I am sure it is a lot cheaper than the UK.
Half board the way to do it It’s what you make it It’s not not too long air flight The Sun is what I would love right now
Bristol by name Bristols by nature.
Clearly from Knowle West
Considering price increase fuel electricity food The price have gone up minimally
I agree. I recommend you winners, a daikiri cost €4.5, 😀
cost of a beer 2e wow ireland 550e
Benidorm probs best part off spain always good just as expensive as any where else lol
I'm going benidorm in November my first ever holiday abroad going self catering so this vid good to know do you know what weather be like end of November time there please x
Can dip a bit at night, take a jumper with you 👍
Us Cas lads can sniff out cheap ale 🍺 😂
Hi Lucy.are you in winners this weekend would like to come and meet you

Yes it is very cheap. Never at home would I be able to buy 5 pints for £15 at home

A studio for one person close to stores and restaurants.What's the average price in the winter if i go to a Spanish real estate office ? Thanks in advance.
Long term rental?
Accrington near manchester!!!!!!
It’s never been that cheap in the old town bars it’s approx 7 euros for a spirit and mixer last year
Hola Lucy. Good topic. ;-]. I cant help wondering if consumer businesses here in UK and other countries have pumped up prices MORE than they need to in some cases, {not all} . Using the news headlines of the cost of living as an excuse to sometimes charge over the top. I wont mention anything about the B word playing any possible part in wholesale price rises here.;-]. 🤨🤨😆😆
Lucy will be over in two weeks. Could you do a vlog for covid passports as one of the other vloggers in Benie have done a vlog saying you no longer need a covid passport for Spain. Which we found is not the case. This would save a lot of problems for people traveling to Spain. See ya soon x
Hi! I think you still need your covid pass,but no longer p.l.f.. I watch the other vlogger too and the way she explained it everything has stopped.. not the case as " Mallorca under the sun" replied to it.
video out in half an hour explaining 👍
Nope. But nowhere is. Turkey is more expensive than Spain now. x
See ya all tomorrow afternoon 🍹🍻😘
Has The Spanish government not interduced Tourist Tax and now they something you need a Visa cause the UK are no longer members of the EU we have been to Benidorm many times.
Whatttttt “same price as blackpool!???” was in Blackpool at Easter. Never paid under £4 for a half decent pint 🤣🤣🤣
I live there and you are right it's about £4 a pint!
@@darrenfoy220 this woman reckons benidorms about the same price as blackpool? What planet is she on? Where in Benidorm is it £4 (or €5) for a pint of lager? 🤣🤨🤷🏻♂️
@@TN2022c The most l paid last June in Benidorm was 3e-80 for a pint , that's was with the entertainment 👍
@@jimmydempsey6857 would get a pint of Shandy in Blackpool for that. What are these folks on 🤣🤷🏻♂️
@@TN2022c 😂😆😄😅🤣
I'm just back from four weeks Benidorm with my daughter, who lives there. Since the pandemic the prices have gone up a lot. It's really not that cheap like before. Especially the supermarket have become so expensive! The prices there are now the same like in The Netherlands, expensive. Also the prices of clothes are doubled. A meal is still cheaper than in The Netherlands. You can have a meal for 13 euros. I only drink water and cola zero and that was still cheaper than in The Netherlands. For 3,50 you can have a cola. In The Netherlands I've paid 7 euros for that.
3.50€ for a cola? where were you going? i don't drink and most i have ever paid is 2.50€ for a cola. most places 1.50-2€
Been benidorm nearly 40 times ..but its the cost to get there now and stay that means I won't be going back anytime soon .last visit Dec 2019 ..then the pandemic hit
Prices on the way up then.
Cheaper than Ibiza €13 for a cocktail
