Hi Mel,
I have lived here in Benidorm for 7 years and Benidorm has been in the doldrums since covid first kicked in with bars, restaurants and many other businesses closing down and some never to reopen. Some have gone derelict and will need a lot of money investing to get back on track.
Having said that, there are thousands of holidaymakers here at the moment ( mainly Spanish, French and German) and the bars, restaurants and hotels have reopened, some fully reformed, and are doing very well indeed. There are likely to be many more bars etc reopening during September when Brits will replace the EU citizens on the beaches and hotels.
Benidorm has certainly bounced back and getting stronger. Still covid here, still require masks and still the curfew is on....for now.
