Turn your car into a motorhome!

You can go to a campsite in Benidorm staying in different ways: tents, caravans, camper vans, bungalows ... and now from the Villasol and Villamar campsites we propose to do it in a different and daring way ... turning your own car into a minicaravan!

It is obvious that the bigger the car the better and more comfortable the space to stay, but it can be done anyway, it all depends on the ingenuity and the skill that they have when assembling the different accessories.

To sleep ... a double bed!
For starters, making the car a double bed is easier than you might think. All you have to do is fold the back seats to the maximum and leave them on the floor of the car, while those in front should be stuck to the dashboard of the car. Once this is done, a platform that includes the mattresses with a base to support them, should be mounted for comfort and support.

This can be found for sale in the form of a small suitcase. It is very easy to take it in the trunk and mount it anywhere. In addition, where the mattresses end, you can deploy a small table to make the "portable kitchen", where to put all the necessary kitchenware to make the food and put the dishes.

For those who want to transform their car into a motorhome for more than two people there is also a solution.

Apart from the mattresses adapted in the back of the car, as we have already mentioned, you can put a mini tent adapted in the hood of the car with two other mattresses. This would be a space for four people, or two adults and two children.

Shower too? 
There is also a miniature modular system that must be fastened in the trunk when fully open. This tool has two curtains that form a small room that will be used as a shower.

A mini camper, small and practical
Another very valid option are mini campers, which consist of mini caravans that are considerably smaller than the size of a car, and would be taken as a trailer.

Inside there is a large storage space, plus a small kitchen with sink, mini fridge and space to put the gas cooker. With this and the mattresses for the seats already would have created a mini caravan without needing to have one.

What if a professional does the job?
All these tips and ideas are for those who want to transform their car into a motorhome without help, but there are also companies that specialize in doing this work. You would need a van, because the size of a normal vehicle is too small for the preparation these companies do.

The bigger the van, the more similar it will be to a motorhome. These companies make the back of the vehicle become a totally fit to live space and with more comfort than you can imagine, but at a much more moderate price than acquiring a caravan.

Beginning by reinforcing all the walls and assembling everything that’s needed to offer lodging for a few days, like the kitchen, the beds, storage place ... the transformation is amazing.

The inventiveness is welcome at the Villasol and Villamar campsites! 
Now, yes, anyone can spend some fantastic days at Villasol and Villamar campsites using the ingenuity and imagination to make your car a home.

In addition, there are great advantages of staying in the campsites, are just minutes from the busy center of Benidorm, with all its leisure areas and numerous shops. And the great attraction of the city, its long and beautiful beaches, which are also within walking distance of the Villasol and Villamar campsites, so ... cheer up and transform the car into a wonderful motorhome to spend a few days of holidays in Benidorm!

They all have a spacious double bed and a two-seater bunk that can be used for children.

 As for the kitchen, it is equipped with all the necessary things to eat, such as a small table with 4 seats and a dining bench.

The bathroom has a comfortable shower so you do not have to leave the caravan to shower in the common toilet buildings if you do not want to.

In addition, they have television, air conditioning and a comfortable terrace for those moments with family or friends that so much characterizes the atmosphere of a campsite.

Advantages of booking a caravan
There are many advantages to booking a caravan as a form of accommodation in a campsite instead of having one in property.

There is no need to make the high economic outlay of acquiring a caravan of its own. It allows you to enjoy 100% of the stay at the campsite as if you were a true camper.

It does not force you to worry about where to store the caravan while it is not used on vacation.
Nor should one worry about its maintenance.

It is not necessary to travel with the house on its back. So the trip is more comfortable and economic, because you do not have to drag the weight of the caravan.

It is not necessary to consider all the holidays in the caravan to amortize the investment.

The caravans are small accommodations and very comfortable, do not require a lot of cleaning and order time so the time of relaxation is assured.

Another great advantage of staying in a caravan is the great social life it offers. All caravans will be located close to others, so it will be very easy to make friends if you want. It is very typical at the campsites that the families come together to chat or eat in those moments of disconnection on the terrace, play games that never go out of style in the old fashioned way, without technological gadgets.
If you want to live the true experience of spending a vacation in your own caravan do not wait any longer and reserve yours at the Villamar camping site (www.campingvillamar.com).

The Villamar and Villasol campsites in Benidorm, offer the best facilities, and a solid experience, covering the needs of our visitors. That’s why we decided to make a list of tips on what to put in the suitcase as a good camper:

Toiletries: basic, of course. Gel, shampoo, toothpaste and toothbrush ... and a light towel! A good camper does not need much more, and limiting the amount of luggage, weight products will be significantly reduced.

Skin protection: cream with a good solar factor and a mosquito repellent are two key products in the life of a good camper. Without them there is a risk of suffering pecks or burns that can spoil idyllic days of fun.

Basic First Aid Kit: camping must continue with regular medication, if taken, but also should be included painkillers and anti-inflammatory, an antihistamine, iodine or hydrogen peroxide to disinfect and, of course, gauzes , bandages and medical tape.

Yes, it is important to note that medications should be stored in a cool place, if possible, closed and out of reach of children. It is also essential to always wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent, to avoid dangerous burns and nasty peck.

Technological devices: a mobile phone is, today, the form of contact with the world, along with a powerful camera of photos and videos to remember, a radio and a music storage system.

Therefore it is essential not to forget your charger at home. In addition, other devices are useful as GPS, iPad or electronic book.

For those not traveling with Smartphone should consider buying batteries for the radio, camera and, of course, for the flashlight. Another must is a compass, though ... you must know how to use it!

Documentation: before leaving trip is advisable to check the identity card, passport (if you go abroad) and the health card are in force, and to be included in the backpack when you go to camping.

A wallet with some credit card is safe, but in the countryside it is difficult to use, since many establishments still not allowed. It is therefore advisable to carry cash divided in different areas of luggage.

Clothing: what to pack is a function of what each one chooses, you cannot miss swimwear, outerwear (in the field it’s usually cool), comfortable walking shoes, flip-flops for the pool and showers, short and long pants and shirts that do not need ironing.

Also, to mark clothes can be a great idea, if it will be a laundry or hang them in a public area. One trick when packing is to put the clothes making "rolls" with it, since it will take up less space in your backpack and wrinkle less.

Accessories: sunglasses cannot be overlooked, and a hat to protect the head during excursions. In
addition, a sarong or large scarf is very useful because it can be used to improvise a shawl, a scarf, or a rudimentary tablecloth. In case it rains, it never hurts to include a raincoat or collapsible umbrella ... for summer storms!

Shoes: is the most uncomfortable thing to keep in a suitcase, because they never fit ... so our solution is easy, get a pair of shoes (as comfortable as possible), and flip-flops for the pool.

And to be most farsighted, a good camper always leaves a small space in your suitcase for possible purchases or souvenirs, because in the end, they’re always there.

The new phenomenon of "Glamping" is here: Camping with Glamor.

The camping has generated some passions and distrusts since its generalization as a new form of tourism, back in the 60s. Traveling in motorhome or with a trailer was almost a new form of adventure that became popular in our country, which also had suitable climate and landscape to become a paradise for campers from all over Europe.
The camping enthusiasts highlighted the most flexibility and the best prices as the main advantages of camping in nature, compared to conventional accommodations such as hostels and hotels. His detractors, however, fled from what some considered an uncomfortable tourist solution and not very glamorous, with no privacy or comfort.
The XXI century, which will possibly go down in history as the one for tourism innovation, has brought, among many other interesting trends in consumption, the maximum customization of the tourist experience as essential tip of any business in the service sector. There is no longer "good and bad" in tourism, or "expensive or cheap." Today, luxury is precisely for the traveller to choose.
Thus, a post hippy concept like camping, the most innovative tourism businesses have managed to evolve towards the 'glamping', born from the union of 'camping' and 'glamor'.
This concept is based on the sophistication of the concept of outdoor camping, providing the traveller with luxury services in first class accommodations. It is simply raising the stay in the countryside to the premium category level, and it is not too far from concept of the expeditions or the camping journeys from the European wealthy travellers to areas where there were no five-star hotels so they had to rest under starry skies, as the African savannah or the Middle East.
 The range of choice is immense: there are tipis, jaimas or cabanas in which the decoration and the equipment are cared to the last detail: king size beds, private bathroom with toiletries, towels, electricity and hot water exactly like they could find in any hotel.
Camping Villasol in Benidorm, is a magnificent example of Glamping in Benidorm. High class accommodation, with services and facilities like a hotel, but where the customers do not have to renounce the atmosphere and the flexibility of a campsite. Among its wide range available, we can highlight the Resort and the Suites as models of 'glamping'.
The Resort is characterized by being located in a private setting surrounded by an exclusive garden of subtropical vegetation.
The campsite has sixteen deluxe bungalows fully equipped and decorated in a modern and cosy way, creating an innovative concept of accommodation.

Meanwhile, the suites are very spacious and fully equipped rooms designed to enjoy nature and the atmosphere of camping but with the comfort of a hotel room.
 Each suite has its own bathroom, a splendid private terrace and a parking adjacent, not forgetting facilities such as WIFI and television.
In addition, Camping Villasol offers a restaurant and cafeteria, outdoor pool with poolside snack bar, heated pool, supermarket, shower block, basketball and petanque courts.
Camping Villasol is the most complete and updated experience of 'glamping in Benidorm' in a privileged environment as is the city of Benidorm.

Music festivals in Benidorm; a little bit of history

Thinking in today´s music festivals in Benidorm undoubtedly leads you to the Low Festival. Since 2008, year after year, the summer festival of indie, pop, rock and electronic music becomes a benchmark for the Spanish music scene.

Known as the best national pop-rock festival, Iberia Festival is undoubtedly one of the most attractive for lovers of Spanish pop-rock music. Since 2013, in only two editions, has managed to become one of the most anticipated events of the national rock calendar.

In the first edition of the Benidorm song festival, which took place in 1959, 1335 songs competed, what surpassed the organizer's expectations. 1335 tittles fought for the Little Mermaid (prize of the festival), which finally won the song "El Telegrama". 

Benidorm, as a "good" Levantine city, is a place in which music has become ingrained in its history.

When we think about music in Benidorm, the Benidorm International Song Festival always comes to our mind. From the second half of the 20th century, the most important Spanish artists and performers made their début in this contest.

Beginning of the Benidorm International Song Festival

Such was the success of the first edition that, for the second one, in 1960 the Festival was another character in the film "Festival de Benidorm" with Manolo Bur and Conchita Velasco.

Throughout its twenty-five editions, important artists like Julio Iglesias (winner in 1968 with "La vida sigue igual"), "el Dúo Dinámico" or Raphael became well-known; Karina or Manolo Otero made also their début in the early years of the contest. .
In the early 70s began to decline, partly because of the lack of quality of the songs presented, partly because of the lack of appeal to younger audiences.
It was not held between 1979 and 1984 and after attempt in 1985 to rescue the Festival, it was not until 1993 that it was held again. In this last period, until 2006, the interest of both public and media was declining until its total disappearance; still, great singers participated in the Festival such as Passion Vega or Rosana Arbelo

 Music in Benidorm, another tourist attraction
After many years, the Festival of the Song of Benidorm was losing his drive as a catalyst for musical activity in Benidorm, leaving his inheritance.

In the last 20 years Benidorm has been and almost obligatory stop for many touring artists and national and international groups; Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen and Marc Anthony are just some of the examples of international stars who have been in Benidorm.

The Benidorm Palace, "core" of music in Benidorm
The Benidorm Palace is one of the vital centers when it comes to music in Benidorm.
With nearly 40 years of history, what began as a village hall has been changing its course to become the stage where shows as "The Color of Music" and performances by national and international artists like Fangoria, Ara Malikian, David Bisbal and Alejandro Sanz were presented

Music festivals today in Benidorm
Currently in Benidorm holds two main musical events at national level such as the Iberia Festival and the Low Festival. The first one aimed at an audience around 40 years of a more serious and quiet nature.
The second one aimed at a younger audience, seeking nightlife, cheap accommodation in hotels or campsites in Benidorm, which practically lives at night and sleeps during the day.

Iberia 2.0

In its second edition, in October 2015, with Rosendo, La Union and Los Toreros Muertos headlining, the stage of the Auditorium Julio Iglesias welcomed rockers from the 80s until today: Ariel Rot, Jaime Urrutia or the Rebels , among others, to the delight of nostalgic and "new rockers" for two days.

For the 2016 edition artists have not been released yet.
More information on the festival website: http://iberiafestival.com/

Low Festival

The stage, mounted in Guillemo Amor -Benidorm’ s sport city-, has been visited in the last seven years by international artists like Portishead and The Kooks and national artists like Fangoria or Los Planetas. . For the 2016 edition - to be held between the 29th and 31st of July -. Headliners as Vetusta Morla (in their only concert in Levante) Belle and Sebastian have already been confirmed.
