We were there 10 days ago and as I understand they have 15 days to come up with a plan to cure the flooding! But remember this is Spain and it could take years to resolve if ever

since a child
benidorm as suffered flooding many times over the years .
mind several spanish towns regularly get flooded lots have been drowned and washed away when camping in what looks like dried up river beds . get lots rain up in the mountains and the south coast gets flooded . remember spain is the highest country in the eu . its average hieght is 650mtrs every where . in places twice as high as ben nevis . inland being at the hieght of ben nevis is flat land . think hard where you do stop.
madrid is the highest capital in the eu.

It's still open. We were chatting to a guy last night who told us that La Torreta are building a new area next to Villa Sol. Said works been started but whether there's any truth innit I don't know. We certainly couldn't see any evidence of any new works starting when we went looking this morning.

Thanks all.. Been a bit of chat about it on Facebook groups, inc one woman who was going to buy a caravan next week.
She didn't know it flooded, she does now and about the license. (y)

@tonka had this reply this morning.

Good morning Mr. Green,

Currently the Campìng La Torreta is open and working.
Newspaper reports are sometimes sensational, and the problem of flooding is a problem with the city council 10 years ago.

Best regards
