Benidorm - have we booked into a terrible site? Camping Benisol

We visit camping Benisol in Benidorm for two nights, but have we made a big mistake? its definitely more than we ever spend on a campsite, and the extra charges keep flowing in.
Then we looked at the trip advisor page!
Did we end up enjoying our stay?
Keep watching for a very special episode of Economics and Maths with Mrs Redders.

    Benisol - God's waiting room 😇

    €67 for 2 nights is £28.50 a night. That really isn't too bad compared to UK prices. Do they take ACSI? You can't really complain about not getting sun. It's January in Spain it could have been cloudy or raining. Benidorm isn't for us either, that's why we drove straight past but the campsite actually looks quite nice.

    We were on pitch 8 a couple of weeks ago and had NO sun at all. Indoor pool bit scruffy but beautiful and warm . They accept ACSI card and price per night about 21 a night. . Got stung last year with electric .Four nights about 85 euro.. We downloaded the app and monitored our 3 euro a day allowance and made sure we didn't go over . Not all campsites in winter accept ACSI cards but worth getting .

    There is one great thing about Benidorm - the road out 😂😂😂 old town is lovely but they know how to charge on the camp sites there that’s for sure

    No, sorry Corrine. Black pudding does not = Sausage. Sausage = 4 points. Bacon = 3 points. Hash brown = 2 points, beans = 1 point, tomatoes = 0/1 point. Therefore i hash brown +tomatoe = 2 to 3 points. You skanked Redders out of 1 to 2 points. With interest at 4.8%, you now owe him 2 sausages. Your welcome.

    OMG I did have a chuckle all through this video. The maths lesson was fab! And as for the blood pressure van, that topped it off! Hope you have re-located to somewhere more 'you'.

    I think you will find in the summer when it’s 30-40 degrees pitch 10 will be very popular

    The site clearly thought you had been enjoying Spain and the sunshine too much lol. I’ll remember pitch ten for ever. Great vlog and I’m still with Tedders on the breakfast fiddle committed by the Mrs 😂

    Guadalest is worth a visit -half an hour from Benidorm up in the mountains - stopped overnight in the village carpark (bottom one below castle) was about €6😊

    Great video guys! We hope you got some good memories there even if you never go back. We were out that way for Christmas and stayed at Camping El Torres, between Benidorm and Villajoyosa - probably cost around the same but fantastic site, great location, and good walks from the doorstep. Hope your next site is better 🐕

    It's a shame about your pitch not getting the sunshine . The site it's self looks lovely. ❤

    Great Maths lesson, enjoyed the video. Stayed at Benisol some years ago at the back by the Tennis courts, looks like the blocks have been updated and the restaurant is open also updated.

    That's definitely not our kind of campsite but there again Benidorm is not our kind of town either. We spend lots of time in Spain because we live pretty close to it and we just love nature, unspoilt beaches, Spanish food. But I can understand people who prefer the big resorts as well, everyone to their own it would be boring if everyone wanted the same thing 😊

    We stayed on Benisol at Christmas, we think the same as you, it's not really for us, we didn't have much of a sun window either. On our way back up we stayed at Camping LA media Legua, which is a brand new site, we preferred it although it's still a long walk into Benidorm.

    How much🤬. And to have to pay for extras 🤯. Are they taking the pxxx. Glad you moved onto a cheaper site. What a rip off. Thought only the brits did that. Lesson learned 👍. Keep up the good work 👏

    😮 that's a bit much.. we only paid €120 all in for 4 nights at Villasol 😅

    Can you please show the connection from the EHU bollard into your power bank and photos of what electric leads you use.

    Hi interesting content glad the sun's out ..shady pitch in Jan is not good we know 🙄 but can I give you feedback there are too many interruptions with adverts . Understand you need more income but wanted to give feedback

    Thanks for that. Good vlog. Had to check we weren’t on pitch 10 after. We are booked in Xmas and new year to go biking etc. was that a Yamaha travel guitar? Mate used one when we used to gig in Crete.

    Thanks for a great review of the site and saving me a journey…… there is no easy way of saying this Corrine but your maths is wrong!! There are only two high value items on a breakfast plate, sausage and bacon which are at least double the value of the rest. I agree with you about the tinned tomatoes, which if anything should have negative points!! In conclusion, Redders was swindled…. Looking forward to Thursday review of 2nd Benidorm site as we’re making our way up there from the Estepona region, and also interested in the power bank. BW Lyndon.
