WHY CHOOSE A CAMPSITE IN BENIDORM?

 

Benidorm Weather

All of the Benidorm campsites are open 12 months of the year and suprisingly (or not) winter is usually our busiest period as this is when we see many of the long term residents come back for the cooler months of the year. We’re fortunate to have our very own ‘micro climate’, with over 300 days of sunshine each year!

Location of Benidorm Campsites

Most of the campsites in Benidorm are situated in an area most commonly known amongst the locals as ‘Campsite Corner’. Campsite Corner can be found in the Rincon de Loix area of Benidorm (which is an area especially popular for British ex-pats), with plenty of British owned bars & restaurants, aswell as the ever popular Iceland British supermarket. The location of all Benidorm campsites can be viewed here.

Campsite Site Fees

Campsite site fees in Benidorm can cost much less than a campsite in the UK with equivalent facilities (and you can use the caravan all year round!) With a favourable exchange rate, the yearly site fees can cost as little as £4,000 per year and are inclusive of water and UKTV connection on most of the campsites. The only additions would be use of gas and electricity with electric use charged on a meter basis at approximately 0.39 – 0.45€ per kw and gas provided by the bottle at approximately 16€ per bottle. Site fees on each Benidorm campsite differ due to varying factors such as plot size, annual discount terms and whether or not an amount of electricity is included in the price. As an example: Camping Almafra Campsite site fees are 4,500.00€ annually but they don’t include an allowance of electricity. Camping Raco Campsite on the other hand charge a daily price (to be paid monthly) at 5,767.00€ with a 2kw allowance of electricity. All Campsite site fees for campsites in Benidorm can be viewed here.

Campsite Facilites

Benidorm campsite facilities are second to none and you’ll find that most Benidorm campsites have an indoor and outdoor pool, supermarket, hairdressers, childrens playground and most importantly – a clubhouse or bar area for enjoying those lazy afternoons!. Most of the campsites in the Benidorm area cater primarily for British ex-pats which means that it’s not uncommon to find your favourite British foods served daily in the campsite clubhouse along with your favourite pint served for less than 2.00€ at happy hour. Add in the nightly entertainment and various animation programmes offered by each campsite and you’ve got the perfect summer holiday or winter getaway in a resort which never sleeps! 

Getting around

A car is not necessary for getting around as Benidorm, Albir, Altea and L’alfas del pi are served by one of the best bus services on the whole of the Costa Blanca! The number 10 bus is every 15 minutes and passes by each of the Benidorm campsites. The cost of the service is just 1.50€ per journey (regardless of the length of journey). Venturing further afield we also have a coastal tram service which covers the coastal resorts from Alicante to Denia. This service runs every hour with various stops in Benidorm, Albir, Altea and L’alfas del pi. Camping Almafra is in the enviable position of being situated right next to the tram stop plus also being on the number 10 bus route.
