Benidorm is attractive to anyone because of its very cheap prices. You can get a week holiday to Benidorm for £99.
But the resort's airport, Alicante, isn't just popular for holidays in Benidorm, the Costa Blanca is one of the nicest places to visit in Spain if you are willing to hire a car and go driving. There are loads of little Spanish towns, Calpe, Moraira, Denia, Altea, Guardilest (Not sure of spelling), Benisa, Teulada, which are fantastic places. Me and my family visit these places every year. We've been going for over 25 years.
I understand Moraira is one the most expensive places to buy in Spain. There is also rumours that famous stars own places there.
But I agree, I'm sure people would like a much wider choice of holiday spots.
