Sol Pelicanos Ocas

Sol Pelicanos Ocas is a family-friendly hotel in Benidorm, one of the best known resorts on the Costa Blanca in the south east of Spain. The hotel is a short stroll away from Levante Beach, a popular stretch of sand that's particularly suitable for young families because of its gently sloping shore and shallow water. At Sol Pelicanos Ocas, there are three outdoor swimming pools. The main pool has three open-air Jacuzzis and is surrounded by a sun terrace dotted with palm trees and Roman-style columns, giving it a tropical feel. In the activity pool, the hotel offers daily activities such as volleyball, water polo, aerobics and gymnastics. Sol Pelicanos Ocas has two buffet restaurants and five bars, one of which is a swim-up bar, allowing you to sip your drink while relaxing in the pool. The hotel provides entertainment several nights a week. You could also head out for a stroll along the promenade behind Levante Beach, which is lined with restaurants and bars, or make the walk or short drive into the centre of Benidorm. Within driving distance of the hotel, in and around Benidorm, are family-friendly attractions like a history-themed park, a water park and 15 golf courses.

Sol Pelicanos Ocas is a 350m walk from popular Levante Beach. In the centre of Benidorm, 2km from the hotel, you can take a walk down to the Balcon del Mediterraneo, a rocky viewpoint that extends into the Balearic Sea. You could also go on a more challenging hike to La creu, a hilltop wooden cross, or around Sierra Helada Natural Park, filled with limestone rock formations and pine forests. The historic city of Alicante, at the heart of the Costa Blanca, is a possibility for a day trip. Its main attractions include Santa Barbara Castle, which is perched on a hilltop overlooking the town, and a bustling harbour.

The two buffet restaurants at Sol Pelicanos Ocas are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
