Best Family Hotels in Benidorm
Happy children, enough space and a location that makes your days easier: that is a much better starting point than picking a hotel from a pretty pool photo. These four family-friendly options offer different holiday styles, from a town-based stay to a resort built around days of activities.
Our editorial shortlist brings together established hotels with different locations and facilities. It is not a ranking by booking volume, price or guest score. Details checked on 12 October 2026; compare recent guest reviews and the rate conditions for your dates.
Enter every child’s age when you compare prices. A room that fits two adults may not fit your whole family, and children’s clubs, water attractions and activity programmes can have age, height or seasonal restrictions.

RH Princesa Hotel & Spa
Children’s pools & town exploringOur pick for: Families who want hotel activities and days out.
RH Princesa is a strong starting point if you want children’s facilities without basing the entire holiday outside town. Its official site lists a children’s pool with slides, a splash zone and outdoor play activities. You can plan pool days and still head out to explore Benidorm, making it a useful compromise between resort time and town time.
Before you book: Check family-room occupancy, children’s activity opening times and which facilities cost extra. Compare the board basis against how often you expect to eat out.
Deloix Aqua Center
Pools & a less central settingOur pick for: Pool-focused stays away from the busiest centre.
Deloix Aqua Center is worth comparing if pools matter more to your family than being a few steps from the promenade. Its official FAQ lists spacious rooms, a themed children’s pool with slides and play facilities. The hotel is in a residential area around 2 km from Levante Beach, so it offers a different base from the central beach hotels.
Before you book: Check the route to the beach and the cost of buses or taxis for your plans. Nearby attractions should be budgeted separately unless your exact booking says otherwise.
Magic Natura Resort
Themed lodges & activity-led holidays
Our pick for: Families who want a resort-led holiday.
Magic Natura is a different kind of Benidorm stay: themed bungalow accommodation in the animal and water-park setting, rather than a conventional hotel beside the beach. It is worth a look if your children would enjoy an activity-led holiday and you expect to spend plenty of time around the resort.
Before you book: Read the exact package inclusions, park opening dates and transport arrangements. Do not assume every rate includes the same attractions, transfers or premium extras.
Meliá Benidorm
Gardens & a larger hotel setting
Our pick for: A resort-style base with space for pool days.
Meliá Benidorm is one to compare if you like a larger hotel setting and a holiday with plenty of time around the pool. Its official site describes a lagoon-style pool, tropical gardens, a paddling pool with two small slides and a children’s activity programme. It is in Rincón de Loix, so check how the location fits your beach days rather than assuming it is beachfront.
Before you book: Choose a room explicitly suitable for your family and check the bed arrangement. Confirm children’s facilities and any seasonal programme for your travel dates.
What will make your family holiday easier?
Start with RH Princesa for a town-based stay with children’s facilities. Compare Deloix if a less central pool-focused base appeals. Magic Natura deserves a closer look for a resort-led holiday with themed accommodation. Meliá is worth comparing for a larger hotel and garden setting. The best choice depends on your children’s ages and how many days you want to spend at the beach.

Your hotel questions answered
Which hotel should I compare first with young children?
RH Princesa is a useful starting point because its official facilities include a splash zone and children’s pool. Check the age rules, supervision arrangements and seasonal opening times before you book.
Is Magic Natura a beachfront hotel?
No. It is outside the main beach centre in a resort setting. Factor in transport if you want regular beach days or evenings in the Old Town.
Do children stay free at these hotels?
That depends on the hotel’s rate, dates, ages and room type. Enter your full party on Booking.com and check the final total rather than relying on a headline offer.
Should we book all inclusive?
It can help with budgeting if you expect to eat most meals at the hotel. Compare the extra cost with your plans and check the children’s food options, snack times and drink inclusions.
What should I check before paying?
Room capacity, actual beds, cancellation terms, transfer plans and opening dates for the facilities your children most want. Ask the hotel directly about any essential accessibility or dietary requirements.
How did we choose these hotels?
We checked hotel websites and their Booking.com listings for location, facilities and the type of guest each stay might suit. This is a practical editorial shortlist, rather than a claim that these are the most booked hotels. Prices and guest scores change, so use the hotel links to compare the latest information.
