Hi Rosiepeardrops, in my experience most hotels offer the option of a "picnic" if you choose not to have lunch although you usually have to book one with reception by 8pm the previous evening. Incidentally, where are you staying next time you go to Benidorm.

Yes, as has been said, most Hotels will provide a picnic lunch for you provided you have ordered it by a certain time the previous evening. Usually 8pm.
You then collect it at breakfast the following morning. You tend to get a pre-packed sandwich, a yogurt, a piece of fruit, a small packet of two biscuits and a small bottle of water or a small carton of fruit juice. They put it all in a small cardboard box with a carry handle.

This may of course vary from Hotel to Hotel.

Have to laugh at hubby, normally stay at pelicanos and used to end up at the picadilly bar for a last drink, after trying various bars only a few yards to stagger home then, the takeaway or eat in place next door which does a roaring trade of mostly cooked chickens pitzas etc can't think of the name of it, saw loats of spanish pulling up at night for a takeaway, all he keeps saying is the first night i am having the chicken and chips, don't care about the evening meal at the hotel, we arrive roughly about 8.30 at night, 8 weeks to go and he keeps saying it about twice a week lol
