Benidorm's First Large Shopping Center Finally Gets the Green Light

Plans for Benidorm's long-awaited first major shopping center have finally been unveiled. The project, undertaken by Unibail-Rodamco, will boast an impressive 58,000 square meters of retail space. Picture courtesy of Unibail-Rodamco Shopaholics rejoice! The center will house 121 stores, offering a diverse mix of shops, restaurants, cinemas, and even a hypermarket. Motorists will be well catered to with a massive 3,000-space parking complex, featuring a combination of underground levels, surface parking, and a designated sector area. While an official opening date remains elusive, progress hinges on the construction of access roads. The municipality of Benidorm has stepped up to the plate, allocating an €18 million budget to connect the N-332 national road to the industrial and commercial area where the shopping center will reside. This investment will ensure smooth accessibility for visitors. The municipality's commitment extends beyond funding. They've also spearheaded

The disgrace of La Cala Beach in Finestrat

If you have ever visited La Cala beach in Finestrat near Benidorm you will have seen that there is a huge building still in scaffolding just in front of the beach. This building should one day become one of the largest hotels in Benidorm, hotel room-wise, unfortunately, the imposing building was never finished, and what's more, the works were stopped more than 20 years ago due to a legal issue. The original hotel would have too many floors and would therefore block the view of the sea from the buildings behind it. Something that today is otherwise little taken into account when you see the current building frenzy in the city of Benidorm. The land on which the Atrium Beach hotel, as the imposing hotel would be called, is built is owned by one of the largest hotel groups in Benidorm and the Balearic Islands. Picture by Harry Fabel The owner of the company was eventually ordered to demolish the hotel, but after years of legal discussions, the developers were fined hugely and ordered

British tourists warned of growing Anti-Tourism sentiment in Benidorm

Recent protests in the Canary Islands against the current tourism model, housing shortages, and the overexploitation of natural resources have significantly impacted the British press. Recently, the tabloid The Sun warned its readers that this climate of rejection of mass tourism could also spread to another major sun and beach destination in Spain: Benidorm. Picture: Pixabay The Sun, one of the most widely read British newspapers, has published an article warning that the protests against mass tourism in the Canary Islands could spread to other popular tourist destinations in Spain, such as Benidorm. The newspaper quotes Fede Fuster, the president of the local hotel association HOSBEC, who expressed his concern about the protests in the Canary Islands. According to The Sun, hoteliers in Benidorm have admitted to being very concerned about the growing anger among Canary Islanders. They described the proliferation of holiday homes in Spain as a "virus". Fede Fuster, the pres
