Benidorm is often seen as a family-friendly beach destination, but it also offers an exciting range of grown-up entertainment perfect for couples or adults travelling without children. From rooftop bars and cabaret nights to peaceful spas and romantic strolls, the city is filled with opportunities to unwind, explore, and reconnect. Whether you're planning a special occasion or simply craving some quality time together, this guide will help you discover the best adult-friendly experiences Benidorm has to offer.


Getting Around from La Caseta Apartments

One of the best things about planning a romantic or adult-focused trip to Benidorm is how easy it is to get around. Many of the city’s best grown-up attractions – from rooftop bars to cultural hotspots – are spread across different areas, but staying at La Caseta Apartments puts you in a central position to reach them all with ease. Whether you prefer walking, hopping in a taxi, or using public transport, you’ll find that most destinations are 10 to 20 minutes away at most. Scenic pedestrian routes through Parc de l’Aigüera lead to the Old Town and Poniente, while buses and taxis nearby make reaching Rincon de Loix or Albir straightforward and stress-free.


Rooftop Cocktails & Sunset Views

Start your evening with a gentle stroll down Av. de L’Aigüera past the town hall to the Rincon de Loix area, where you can enjoy a drink above the bustle of the main strip. The Secret Fountain Garden Bar is one of Benidorm’s hidden gems – a rooftop cocktail lounge designed exclusively for adults. With ambient lighting, chilled music, and panoramic sunset views, it’s a peaceful spot to ease into the night. Ideal for pre-dinner drinks or a quiet moment away from the crowds.


Live Cabaret & Comedy Nights

For full-on entertainment, few places rival Benidorm Palace. This grand venue, just a short taxi or bus ride away from La Caseta Apartments, delivers a Vegas-style show packed with dazzling costumes, live music, comedy, and high-energy dance routines. It’s a great choice for a date night with a difference, especially if you book the dinner-and-show package. With its professional production and glamorous setting, it’s one of the top-rated experiences for adult visitors.


Tapas & Wine in the Old Town

Benidorm’s Old Town is a delight for food lovers. Its narrow, cobbled streets are lined with independent wine bars, pintxo spots, and traditional tapas restaurants. Calle Santo Domingo, often called "Tapas Alley", is the centre of it all. The journey there is a delightful starter – you’ll cross Parc de l’Aigüera and continue downhill to enter the glowing streets of the Old Town, beautifully lit up for the evening. Strolling from one bar to the next, sharing plates and sampling local wines, is one of the most relaxed and romantic ways to spend an evening.


Beach Clubs & Late-Night Lounges

If dancing the night away is more your style, Benidorm’s beach clubs provide a more sophisticated vibe than the well-known party zones. KU Lounge Club and Penelope Beach Club both offer beachfront dancefloors, lounge seating, and upbeat music into the early hours. These are ideal for couples who want a night out that feels both grown-up and carefree.


Spa Days & Wellness Escapes

Need a break from the buzz? Treat yourselves to a spa day. Sandos Monaco Spa is a centrally located option offering massages, hydrotherapy, and couples’ treatments in a tranquil setting. For something more indulgent, head to SHA Wellness Clinic in Albir – one of Europe’s top luxury wellness centres. Their serene facilities, healthy dining, and natural surroundings make for a memorable day trip.


A Night at the Casino

For a stylish evening with a touch of glamour, Benidorm’s casino offers table games, slot machines, and a chic cocktail bar. Located near Levante Beach, you can walk there in around 20 minutes from La Caseta Apartments. Whether you’re there to play or just enjoy the atmosphere, it makes for a unique and sophisticated night out. There’s often live music or themed events, adding to the experience.


Romantic Walks & Scenic Views

Sometimes, the most meaningful moments are the simplest. Benidorm’s coastal paths and lookout points provide the perfect backdrop for evening walks or early-morning strolls. The Balcony of the Mediterranean, in the Old Town, offers breath-taking cliffside views, while the Poniente Promenade is ideal for quiet walks by the sea. Both are easily reachable from La Caseta on foot and make for a lovely way to start or end the day.


Cultural Evenings & Art Events

For a quieter night out, Benidorm’s growing arts scene is worth exploring. The Benidorm Cultural Centre hosts concerts, exhibitions, and international film nights throughout the year. It’s a great way to experience the city’s cultural side and meet locals with similar interests. The venue is within walking distance of La Caseta Apartments, making it an easy option for an impromptu evening plan.


Benidorm has built its reputation on sun, sea, and entertainment – and for adult visitors, the variety of things to see and do is more impressive than ever. Whether you're sipping wine in a hidden bar, dressing up for a show, or simply watching the sunset together from a rooftop terrace, there's no shortage of ways to reconnect and have fun. Best of all, staying at La Caseta Apartments means you're close to it all, with easy access to every experience the town has to offer.
