    It is disgraceful if the staff/management at Sol Pelicanos tried to persuade it's guests not to involve the Police following the theft. It will be a requirement of ANY travel insurance policy that should something like this happen the Police MUST be informed and a written report obtained.... otherwise the insurer would have the right to void the policy and not make any payment for loss of money/passport/personal belongings etc.

    This from the local paper regarding the pelicanos robbery
    The family had been on half board, and the hotel offered to upgrade them to all-inclusive for the last few days of their holiday, for €14 each, per day. When Michelle informed them that she could probably afford to upgrade just one of the kids at a push, the hotel allegedly asked her which child she wanted to choose.
    “It was the hotel’s attitude that got us the most. No compassion, no help, and they didn’t want us reporting it at first, we were the ones who called the police first”

      Yes,I've read local newspapers. police officers even have footage of the broken door, and some more photos of it, not the first time it happens either, if id have smth like this happen, i would move to a different hotel after talking with my agency, they usually offer an alternative🤔

    I agree about Barcelona. I used to like Sitges, which is a beautiful town not far from Barcelona, but it started to feel very unsafe at night. I've heard of some very violent robberies and it's become the norm. Lets hope Benidorm never gets that bad.

    Hey Ana, great vlog. Very informative about the thieving that is not only happening in Benidorm but across various resorts. Sad to hear that the Sol Pelicanos Hotel were more concerned about their reputation after than their poor guests that were robbed. Hope they fix this attitude.

    Hotels in Spain have a safe in every room to stop you being robbed by their OWN staff but discourage their use by charging you up to ten euros/week for a key.
    So whichever way you go, you're being robbed. Disgusting.

  • @simapark

    I'm in a Hotel in Benidorm right now. Its one of the ones Jet2 use which is right in the main party area so it obviously Ambassador or Helios or Riviera or Rosamar or Presidente or Orange or Flash etc etc .
    My point is none of these Hotels have any meaningful security at the front door and reception area especially at night . The very thinly spread night staff just can't tell who is a resident. It's exactly the same during the day.
    The only way around is is every guest is given a pass which has to be presented before you can enter the Hotel. The problem is thats impossible because the bars and tge stage shows are open to the general public not just the guests.

    Loved Sol pelicanos, stayed twice although anybody can walk in off the street as reception cant keep track of who is a guest or visitor even late at night when reception is quieter...you can just stagger in ( Sol need a better door security/ ID bracelet) on entry. I witnessed an elderly couple walking back from a bar and 2 shits befriended them pretending to be drunk jumping about, 1 hooked his foot into the old man and jumped about while turning him, the other guy was holding the wife also turning and laughing...all very fast making sure the old boy fell back the wife was pulled down with him..and the shits took off..quick as a flash, police were called....Sol pel did not want the publicity even tho the couple were guests and very distressed.
