Can anyone give me an idea of the location of these apts. I've been to Benidorm a few times now so if you could give me some landmards rather than street names, not so good with them, lol
Thanks, Karen
Hotel Marina
Vistamar Apts
Hotel Rio Park
Hotel Flamingo Benidorm
Didn't you stay at Hotel Marina at one time, or am I confusing you with someone else ?

Hi,
So if you were to walk downhill from Flamingo Playa via Calle Cuenca towards the Levante Beach, Calle Ibiza and the Ibrox Bar would be fourth street on your right.
If you have a look at grid reference 'K/L 9' of our Benidorm Levante map, it will give you a better idea of the streets in question.
Our reviews of the Flamingo Playa can be found on THIS page.

I've got a better idea of where we're goin now, thanx.
Hi Kazza, it' also very near the Titanic if you know where that is.
Thanks, but I can't think where that is at all. I'm really hopeless with directions even tho i've been there enough, lol

Karen ... I don't know if it's still there, but Flamingo Playa used to have a massive illuminated Thomson sign on its roof, which could be seen all over Benidorm.
anybody know the phone number of the flamingo playa,thanks kev
Kev ... I have it listed as 00 34 96 586 5352
Sorry David, I just noticed that you asked me about the Marina. No, I haven't stayed there, lol. I've stayed at the Cristal Park, Levantelux apts, Hotel Nereo and The Rialto.
That's okay Karen, I was only going to give you directions from the Marina to the Flamingo Playa. But now you know where it is, all you have to do is look out for the building which no longer has a Thomson sign on its roof. It could be a long walk home !
I had to walk from the Ibrox bar to the Rialto last year, is my walk going to be further this year? lol
Depends how many you've had, Karen. A 10 minute stroll should do it.
Thomson videos ain`t as good as mine

Thank You, I enjoyed that. lol
I can't understand why Thomson Holidays don't date those videos - it would give potential customers a far better idea of what to expect. Even if you select the winter months option you see clips which, judging by the thronged pool areas, have obviously been filmed in peak summer months. For anyone who has never been to Benidorm before and who may be looking for a quiet winter break, those clips would give completely the wrong impression and could make folk think Benidorm is not a suitable winter destination for them.
Problems have been reported in this area due to construction works ...
She's booked in April to stay at the Flamingo Playa for a week. However when I went past the building last week on the way home I could have sworn it was closed, well, a building site actually. The back of the Apartments are gutted out and the building looked a shell, Thomson have told her there is no building work going on...but I think otherwise and its getting a bit close to book alternative accomodation
Has anybody been closer to the Apartments or is resident in the area to confirm this
Bearing in mind that Thomson allowed her to book the Monaco Hotel before the hotel themselves emailed her to say that the building was closed for a considerate amount of time for a complete refit
Any help would be appreciated
