Scene
Large and loud resort attracting primarily British tourists
The Hotel Marina attracts a crowd of British vacationers -- both couples and groups of friends -- looking for a bustling resort in the center of Benidorm's action. Both on-site and in the surrounding streets are buzzing bars that are great for party-minded tourists, but can mean lots of noise all the way through the night. Guests generally spend their time out by the large pool, which has a bar for easy drink access. This is a good pick for travelers that want to take advantage of the nearby bars until late, but peace-seeking tourists should look elsewhere.
