This question about a family friendly hotel in Alicante or surroundings is a quite common one. Ron, it is really tricky for me to give any good advice on hotels around the Costa Blanca, since we obviously do not need a hotel (as we are living here). However over the past years, running this website, we do get occasionally readers to recommend a certain hotel in a city along the Costa Blanca. We have collected these tips and listed those hotel recommendations for various cities on our site.
In your case, as you planning to go to Alicante, I would recommend the Melia Hotel in downtown Alicante. It is located in the perfect spot, just next to the harbor area and the main beach in Alicante.
Our list of some Alicante hotels we recommend is here .
If you are planning to stay in any of the other lovely cities around the Costa Blanca or Costa Calida, please follow one of the following to a short list of hotels we and/or our readers recommend for each larger town or city.
