Have you heard of Benidorm's famous "Fancy Dress"? Every year, Benidorm welcomes over 30,000 people to its most eagerly anticipated event, the Fancy Dress!
The Fancy Dress is a popular costume party held every November in Benidorm, right after the local patron saint festivals. This event started as a small parade and has since grown into one of the largest costume gatherings in Europe. Here, both tourists and locals come together, decked out in the most creative and extravagant outfits you can imagine.
If you’re still on the fence about attending, now’s the time to decide! Book the next flight and come experience this celebration on the Mediterranean coast, because the Fancy Dress is truly an experience you don’t want to miss.
To make the most of your visit, it's essential to have a comfortable, well-located place to stay. At Port Hotels, we offer various options in Benidorm so you can stay close to the action and enjoy a well-deserved rest after a day filled with festivities.
At Port Benidorm, you can enjoy the Fancy Dress celebration right in the heart of it all, as the hotel is located in Rincón de Loix, the epicenter of the party. Plus, you can take advantage of its spacious, fully equipped facilities. The spa is ideal for unwinding after a day of fun.
If you’d prefer to stay in a more central location to explore the old town and soak up the local culture, we recommend Port Fiesta Park or Port Vista Oro.

The mild temperatures at this time of year are perfect for relaxing on the city’s beautiful sandy beaches and enjoying its unique atmosphere. These hotels offer modern, comfortable facilities, so you can fully recharge after a day full of adventure and costumes.

Port Hotels, the hotel chain based in Benidorm, is organizing a charity cocktail event on Thursday, November 28, at 8:30 p.m. at the Hotel Port Alicante City & Beach in support of Aspanion, the Association of Parents of Children with Cancer in the Valencian Community. This event will be the first of three that will mark a significant collaboration between the two organizations as part of Aspanion’s 40th anniversary.
For more than two years, Port Hotels has remained committed to Aspanion, collaborating on initiatives like World Childhood Cancer Day in various ways. In 2025, Aspanion will celebrate four decades dedicated to providing comprehensive support to families of children with cancer in the Valencian Community—a milestone that Port Hotels and the association have decided to commemorate with a series of celebratory events extending until February 2025.
This first gathering, a charity cocktail event at Port Alicante City & Beach, will serve not only as a fundraising platform but also as a meeting space for collaborators, families, volunteers, and supporters. It promises to be a special evening, dedicated to strengthening awareness of Aspanion’s cause and celebrating a collective commitment to the fight against childhood cancer.
Tickets for the event are available on the Port Hotels website for €40, with €5 from each ticket going directly to Aspanion’s projects. The funds raised will help finance the psychological, social, and economic support programs that the association has provided over its 40-year history, improving the quality of life for families during the most challenging times in their lives.
Through initiatives like this, Port Hotels reinforces its commitment to the communities where it operates, aligning its efforts with causes that truly make a difference.

The Benidorm City Council has granted the building permit to expand Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa, located in the Rincón de Loix neighborhood. The establishment is owned by the renowned entrepreneur Toni Mayor, president of the Port Hotels chain and former leader of the sector’s employers' association in the Comunitat, Hosbec. The project includes the construction of an adjacent 26-story tower, eight more than the current flagship building in the city of skyscrapers. The work is expected to be completed before the high season of 2026, according to company sources.
The new building will house 125 hotel rooms, bringing the total to 406 rooms in the establishment. This will be achieved through a new structure connected to the existing building, as seen in the accompanying image. Of the 26 floors of the new tower, 23 will be dedicated to the new accommodation units, while the remaining floors will enhance and expand the range of services and common areas “to offer our guests a comprehensive luxury and wellness experience.”
Additionally, new pool areas will be added, and the hotel’s current rooftop will be expanded to increase the capacity and services of La Terrasse, the restaurant located in this space. Furthermore, the existing parking lot will be demolished and replaced with a new three-level parking area to improve capacity and accessibility.
Previously, the company had to initiate the entire procedure to apply for an Interior Reform Plan (PRI) that would allow them to increase the buildable area of the plot in exchange for compensating the municipality financially and relinquishing square meters in setbacks. However, according to the documentation, they do not have the environmental license prior to the building permit as it is still being processed. As a result, they have assumed the risk and responsibility for the consequences if it is not granted, thereby committing not to receive compensation. This is a reversal of steps allowed by law in such cases.
The deadline for the execution of the work is 24 months, and the permit will expire if the works have not commenced within six months of notification. Once started, the works will be halted for six months.
This is not the first renovation the hotel has undergone since being acquired by Toni Mayor. After purchasing the property, previously known as Los Dálmatas, the entrepreneur opened the doors of the new accommodation in 2016 with his signature touch following a significant transformation process and an investment of 13 million euros. He also established his headquarters there, from where he manages the chain, which includes eleven establishments throughout the Valencian Community. Five years later, he continued with the conversion by undertaking new works on the structure, followed by further expansions of the rooms and spaces, such as the rooftop converted into a bar with privileged views of the beach and the skyline. This constant evolution has allowed the hotel to achieve a superior four-star rating.
“The expansion of Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa not only reinforces Port Hotels’ commitment to growth and innovation in the hotel industry but also underscores its investment in Benidorm as a key destination for national and international tourism,” stated the hotel chain. They added, “With this project, Port Hotels continues to elevate the quality and service standards that have characterized the chain throughout its history.”
Currently, the company employs over 800 people, manages 1,925 rooms, and offers nearly 4,000 hotel beds.

The Huerto del Cura Hotel, owned by the Port Hotels chain, launches a new gastronomic offering in its lush gardens.
Veranda is the name given to the new gastronomic space at the Huerto del Cura Hotel, a refuge of Mediterranean flavors in a unique setting, with an elegant and cozy atmosphere that promises to delight the senses of its visitors.
A veranda is defined as an outdoor living area, a place to relax and enjoy the surroundings, much like the space around the pool at the Huerto del Cura Hotel. Veranda stands as the ideal place to enjoy summer nights, the perfect setting for a special occasion or an intimate dinner in good company. Its privileged environment adds extra charm, turning each visit into a memorable experience.
The new garden bar is distinguished by its unique and sophisticated culinary offerings, including everything from rice dishes and focaccias to grilled meats, all prepared with fresh, local ingredients using modern cooking techniques.
Veranda's bartenders have created a selection of exclusive cocktails designed to reflect the essence of summer. These signature cocktails feature innovative combinations of flavors and techniques. Their cocktail menu focuses on using seasonal ingredients to ensure vibrant and authentic flavors. Although the cocktail list includes classics like mojitos, margaritas, and daiquiris, each is presented with Veranda's unique touch.
Veranda's cocktail offerings are also designed to complement its menu of tapas and light dishes. Each cocktail can be paired with menu options that enhance the flavors of both, creating a complete gastronomic experience.
Veranda is open daily for lunch and dinner, offering a complete experience that goes beyond gastronomy. On Thursday nights, diners can enjoy live music, while on Fridays, the resident DJ adds a vibrant touch to the evening with sessions of afro house, deep house, and chill out.
Veranda promises to be the trendy spot this summer in the city of Elche. With its innovative gastronomic proposal and incomparable setting, it positions itself as a must-visit for locals and tourists seeking a unique experience.
Nestled in the Huerto del Cura Hotel, it is recognized by many as a "city oasis" and is considered one of the most unique accommodations in the region. Its privileged location in the heart of the Palm Grove of Elche allows guests and visitors to lose themselves in a garden of delights unique to the province.
As a benchmark in its category of accommodations, the Huerto del Cura Hotel harmoniously combines exclusive bungalow rooms in the garden. Among the more than 600 specimens of ancient palm trees surrounding the hotel is also the Oasis Zen. Inspired by the tropics, the Oasis Zen features jacuzzis, saunas, hammock areas, a fully equipped gym with state-of-the-art equipment, and a massage center. Guests can enjoy a wide range of body massages, facials, and guided circuits by a professional team of masseurs.
In its mission to be a place dedicated to body care, comfort, and well-being, gastronomy plays a fundamental role. The hotel dedicates a large part of its efforts to this field, being one of the city's reference kitchens.
Els Capellans, the hotel's in-house restaurant, completes the hotel's gastronomic offering with its traditional cuisine from Elche. Chef Jesús Gómez works to offer avant-garde cuisine without losing sight of those dishes so representative of the city, such as Elche delicacies or arroz con costra.
The gastronomy and exclusive spaces of the Huerto del Cura Hotel can also be enjoyed as an event venue. From intimate celebrations to conferences for up to 300 people.
The Huerto del Cura Hotel is a true oasis of tranquility in the center of Elche. Surrounded by a lush garden of palm trees, the hotel combines luxury and comfort, offering a unique experience in the province. This idyllic setting is now complemented by the Veranda offering, which further enhances the hotel's offerings.
Port Hotels, a hotel chain with 11 hotels in Elche, Alicante, Benidorm, Calpe, Dénia, and Valencia, has renewed the Bioscore Certification across all its properties. Internationally recognized, the Bioscore Certification evaluates sustainability through its own standard, which is acknowledged by the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourist Council). This prestigious certification is a testament to Port Hotels' commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
The Bioscore certification assesses multiple aspects of sustainability, including energy efficiency, waste management, responsible use of natural resources, and sustainable labor practices. Port Hotels' properties have implemented a series of measures to reduce their environmental impact and promote more responsible tourism.
The Benidorm-based hotel group has worked to integrate sustainable practices into its daily operations across all departments, such as implementing motion sensor systems and energy-saving devices, recycling programs, reducing single-use plastics, installing drinking water dispensers, minimizing food waste, and collaborating with local suppliers to reduce the carbon footprint, among other initiatives.
This year, the company has incorporated water footprint calculations into its sustainability standards to optimize resources and reduce environmental impact. Water footprint data is crucial for planning long-term sustainable strategies that ensure the resilience of the establishments against potential water shortages in the future.
“The renewal of the Bioscore certification in all our establishments is an important milestone for Port Hotels. It not only reflects our 'Guests of The Planet' commitment but also offers our guests peace of mind, knowing that they are choosing responsible accommodations,” says Ana Mayor, Vice President of Port Hotels. “We believe it is our responsibility to care for the environment and the community in which we operate, and this certification is a significant step towards achieving that goal.”
The Hotel Huerto del Cura, owned by the Port Hotels chain, is a unique hotel located in the heart of the Palmeral of Elche, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000.
The Palmeral of Elche, also known as the Palm Groves of Elche, is a large expanse of palm trees within the city of Elche.
The hotel features more than 600 palm trees within its premises. They spread throughout the garden, around the pool, and blend with the rooms distributed in bungalows, forming a city oasis.
Every year, when summer arrives, it is time to prune the more than 200,000 specimens that make up this peculiar landscape. The Hotel Huerto del Cura not only offers a refuge of luxury and comfort but also bears witness to this millenary tradition. The hotel’s palm trees are also part of the municipal pruning plan carried out each year.
Pruning the palm trees is an essential activity to maintain the health and beauty of the palm grove. This process not only improves the appearance of the palm trees but also prevents diseases and pests, ensuring the longevity of these magnificent trees.
The pruning of the palm grove combines traditional techniques passed down from generation to generation with modern methods that guarantee the safety and effectiveness of the process. The pruners, known as "palmereros," are genuine artisans who use specific tools to cut the dry leaves and suckers, avoiding damage to the palm tree trunk.
Guests at the Hotel Huerto del Cura have had the unique opportunity to closely observe this fascinating activity.
We invite you to visit the Hotel Huerto del Cura and experience the magic of the Palmeral of Elche. For more information and reservations, visit our website.

Both hotels have implemented specific actions that were previously audited to obtain this recognition. Among the measures taken are widening of doors and corridors, modification of access with ramps and accessible elevators, installation of emergency lighting signals and alarm devices in bathrooms, implementation of specific table reservations in the restaurant for quick and unobstructed access to the buffet, and modification of the height of elevator controls, among others.
The objective of Benidorm's Tourism Accessibility Plan is to create a roadmap or action plan that allows the city to improve its positioning in the tourism market and establish itself as an inclusive, accessible, and socially responsible destination, ensuring equal opportunities for all individuals.
Lean Management is a powerful methodology aimed at continuous improvement. It involves identifying waste or "muda," which is defined as anything that does not add value for both internal and especially external customers, and eliminating it. Delays affecting guests, constant breakdowns, quality defects, movements of people and materials, warehouses full of perishable materials and products, or overproduction are considered waste and are the target to eradicate when working with Lean Management. At Port Hotels, we embrace this methodology to improve efficiency and, therefore, the satisfaction of both our internal and external customers. In this first foray into Lean Management, we have focused on the housekeeping and storeroom departments and have improved our internal procedures with cost reductions and task completion times. The application of Lean Management methodology requires the participation of teams that carry out most of the processes and are at the base of the hierarchical pyramid of a company. They always know what is happening or what may happen in a hotel, in our case.

Sightseeing tends to work up an appetite, so take advantage of the charming streets in this neighborhood to enjoy a terrace in the sun while tasting a traditional Valencian Paella.
Valencian Paella is a typical dish throughout the autonomous community, specifically originating from this city. Each locality has its own recipe, but the authentic one consists of rice, chicken, rabbit, green beans, tomato, "garrofó" (a type of bean), saffron, and olive oil.
To continue your getaway, we suggest an afternoon of shopping on Calle Colón, the most commercial area in Valencia. Fashion, makeup, technology, sports, home goods, local shops, and something for everyone.
At the end of Calle Colón, you'll find the imposing Valencia Bullring, operational since 1859. Next to it is the North Station, Valencia's historic main train station.
To top off a fantastic and complete day in Valencia, we suggest returning to the hotel and enjoying Room Service at Port Azafata. If, on the other hand, you're staying at Port Feria, you can enjoy a delicious informal dinner at the Cel & Terra restaurant.
If you decide to stay a few more days in Valencia, here are some other very interesting plans:
Are you in? We await you at Port Hotels.
