I quit the UK for Benidorm – I plan wild hen dos and never been happier
A man who lost his bed and breakfast business in a sleepy Welsh seaside town says he has now become “Mr Benidorm” the go-to man for stags and hens looking for the most riotous parties in Spain.
Louis Grier, 30, says he has not looked back since swapping tiny Pwllheli for the bright lights of Benidorm where he spends his days whipping lairy stags, dancing on them and organising the most outrageous nights out.
Mr Grier said he made the move one year ago after he lost his seaside bed and breakfast due to declining visitor rates during the pandemic and decided there was nothing stopping him from making the move.
He says as a result of losing the business he was also unable to run his animal charity and had “nothing left”.
Mr Grier said: “Life’s been crazy recently, I was running my B&B in Wales and then Covid hit and people weren’t visiting, so I got into debt and eventually lost it all.

“I had nothing to keep me in Wales and little in the bank, so I just had to go.”
He began life in Benidorm by working in an Indian restaurant where his eccentric style saw him become a local celebrity and eventually he was offered a unique job whipping husbands to be in the city’s Millers Bar and helping them to have a good time at the Mediterranean watering hole.
Mr Grier also began to do food reviews of the city’s many eateries as well as performing comedy shows in its clubs.

He added: “I’ve become well-known on the island, lots of people recognise me in the street and want a picture, it’s crazy.
“I’ve even started up my guide called the Benidorm Fanatic on TikTok and it’s got almost 16,000 followers.”
Mr Grier’s popularity has even earned him the attention of the stars, with the likes of Paul Chuckle, Crissy Rock and Anton Du Beck all getting his party assistance.
He says famous faces heading to the city often get in touch with him first in order to make the most of their time in Spain’s boozing capital.
Mr Grier said: “I’ve never looked back since I came here, I’m now going into comedy which I’ve always wanted to do.
“It’s like my dream has come true, I’d have never thought this was possible a couple of years back, I just used to think about making money.”
