Poseidon Playa

Poseidon Playa is a seafront hotel, a short stroll from Benidorm's Old Town in Spain. The hotel overlooks the sea and the islet of Benidorm Rock, and has an outdoor swimming pool surrounded by plenty of places to sit and relax. You can order a drink from the poolside bar and find your favourite spot on the palm tree-fringed sun terrace. The hotel hosts family-friendly shows in the evenings, and there's extra entertainment for kids. There are two bars and a restaurant at the hotel, with outdoor seating so you can dine while enjoying the view. If you'd like to go exploring, Benidorm's New Town, with a variety of places to eat and drink, is within walking distance of Poseidon Playa. Playa de Poniente, one of Benidorm's three main beaches, is steps away from the hotel. It's a long sandy beach with clear and calm waters, popular with families and swimmers. There's a promenade along the seafront which is lined with bars and cafÈs. For a traditionally Spanish night out, you can visit 'Tapas Alley' in the Old Town and try some of the local cuisine.

Benidorm Old Town, 2km from the hotel, has a maze of cobbled streets and whitewashed buildings, with shops and stalls selling a range of local produce and souvenirs. You can catch a boat from the harbour to Benidorm Rock, the distinctive islet you can see from the beaches, or take a longer trip to the island of Tabarca. Altea Town is 10km from Benidorm, and has a tree-lined promenade and historic old quarter. Calpe, a seaside town, is 24km from Benidorm. It's known for its beaches, like sandy Arenal-Bol, Roman site BaÒos de la Reina, with rock-cut sea pools and PeÒÛn de Ifach, a limestone rock with thriving birdlife.

The hotel has a buffet restaurant which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and snacks are served in between meals. There's a lounge bar and a pool bar, and the hotel offers room service. If you want to dine out, the resort centre has a range of bars, restaurants and cafÈs.
