Hotel Villa Espana
Benidorm | Costa Blanca
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hotel Villa Espana is one of Benidorm\u2019s most exciting new openings for summer 2025: a 4-star, culture-infused beach hotel blending classic Spanish styling with contemporary comforts. Steps from Poniente Beach in the atmospheric Old Town, it combines a showpiece Andalusian spa, a panoramic adults-focused rooftop zone and clever family facilities, all wrapped up in a certified sustainable package.
Think sun-soaked rooftop pools with sweeping bay views, whitewashed-and-terracotta interiors, and a spa that feels transported from southern Spain\u2019s pueblos blancos. At Hotel Villa Espana you\u2019re 100m from Poniente\u2019s golden sands, yet tucked into Benidorm\u2019s characterful Old Town with its tapas alleys and harbourfront strolls. Families get a splash-tastic kids\u2019 pool and club, while grown-ups can retreat to the panoramic rooftop and wellness area when it\u2019s time to slow the pace.
For couples seeking Costa Blanca’s charm with easy beach access and plenty of atmosphere, Hotel Villa Espana delivers the perfect balance. It’s 1 hour 30 minutes from the airport. See more Costa Blanca holidays.
