LNOF Guide to Benalmadena
Benalmadena is set to drive the girls wild with baking hot delight this season.
This compact Costa del Sol paradise is the one to watch when it comes to fabulous, abroad hen weekends. We knew it would be hot - indeed, it has some of the best weather in Europe all-year round - and we'd heard that Benalmadena nightlife was sexy, stylish and exciting. In fact, there’s so much to see and do within what is effectively a small, but beautifully formed, holiday resort. There are great tours, excursions, events and activities to vie with the beaches and shops for your daytime attention. And, when the sun goes down and your gladrags are on - the restaurants, bars and clubs around the award-winning marina show you exactly why the Spanish themselves love to holiday here whenever they can.
Benalmadena hen weekends are glamorous, fun and extremely chic, but they don’t stretch the purse strings irrevocably. This has to make the shortlist of locations: sumptuous restaurants, unbeatable weather and attractive people. Go on; spoil yourselves silly in a town just perfect for spoiling.
Prosecco in the sun all day, then getting all dressed up and hitting the bars at night - that's my kind of hen weekend.

Benalmadena Costa is a small town and ideal for hen weekenders who prefer to get around on foot. Once you're near the marina, everything of interest is within walking distance. The buzzing nightlife, delicious restaurants and excellent accommodation are in close proximity, and only minutes away from the beach. The Marina was recently voted ‘World's Best Marina’, and it is around this that most of the places you'll frequent will be situated.
Hen weekends in Benalmadena guarantee a wild time of baking hot days and frenzied evenings that go on 'til dawn, taking things as fast or as slow as you like. For example, there's a ready supply of water-based activities, fun events and organised visits to consider when it's daylight... or, alternatively, just stay right where your sun lounger is - about 15 feet from a man who makes Vin Diesel look like unleaded 2-star. A tasty array of designer stores pocket this scrumptious and friendly resort, and don't forget that our team will be giving you the very best advice and recommendations, right up to your sleeping on the flight home. Expect lethal cocktails, speedboats on the horizon, air-conditioned nightclubs and an exotic mix of nationalities. Oh, and the hen will have a ball too.
