FRANK 'THE STAG MAN' HAS SEEN IT ALL WHEN IT COMES TO HENS AND STAGS, AND HE'S GOT SOME WORDS OF ADVICE FOR THOSE LOOKING TO PARTY IN THE SPANISH COASTAL TOWN OF BENIDORM

12:20, 03 Jun 2025 A man known as the 'King of Benidorm' who has hosted countless hen and stag parties in the notorious party town has revealed the biggest blunders

"legless" Brits make when they visit. Frank 'The Stag Man', as he is popularly known online, originally hails from Tottenham but long ago made the Spanish coastal town

his home after attending a stag do himself. Nowadays, the 54-year-old is happily wedded to Jade, who is hailed as Benidorm's 'most legendary stripper'. However, this

doesn't deter him from throwing an unforgettable bash for other prospective brides and grooms. After 14 years of non-stop partying, Frank has one key insight: Not everyone can handle

what Benidorm throws at them. "The biggest mistake I've seen brides – and especially grooms – make is when it comes to drinking," the travel agent and bar owner shared with

Luxury Travel Daily. "The measures here are very different to the UK and Ireland. DO YOU HAVE A TRAVEL STORY TO SHARE? EMAIL [email protected] READ MORE: Livid Brits take

Sunday afternoon watching the footy. And before they know it, they're legless. The measures here are very generous, with a double vodka typically filling half a pint glass and a splash

of mixer." Frank has also witnessed his fair share of soon-to-be married individuals missing out on the party entirely. He continued: "They just don't know their limits. It

leads to them injuring themselves or causing a disturbance. "And then the morning after, they're too hungover to continue and end up missing out. It makes me sad, as I always think

that they've wasted so much money travelling to Spain doing something they could've done at home. At least lying in bed the next day wouldn't matter then." Frank further

advised against organising a group stay through disreputable websites. He warned: "These websites don't often state on the booking that groups aren't allowed. It's not

just the trouble people will cause, it's the fact that these businesses don't want half their hotel booked out for just a few days, when they could've had multiple guests stay

for a week. "I've heard it too many times: 'Oh we've been refused at our hotel' or 'We've been kicked out with nowhere to stay'. It's just not

worth it. Look at a reputable agent who can do all the legwork for you. Otherwise you'll be spending your send-off to married life sleeping on the streets." Frank, famed for

accommodating 200 hen and stag dos in a single day, also warned not to take country portrayals on TV too literally, even if he concedes "what happens in Benidorm, stays in

Benidorm". READ MORE: Majorca travel warning for Brits as easyJet cancels flights amidst air traffic issuesREAD MORE: Pretty UK market town with best food is the 'loveliest in

police. For example, drinking on the beach is a complete no-go. "You'll be slapped with a hefty fine. And don't go there for any late-night swims, as they'll charge you

for that, too." Frank offers another crucial tip: always have cash on hand in case your card is declined. Article continues below He also warns holidaymakers using chip and pin to keep

their wits about them – there are bar staff who've cheekily bumped up the bill or charged British patrons twice.
