What is the 3 drink rule in Benidorm?

The "3 drink rule" in Spain refers to the Balearic Islands' law limiting all-inclusive guests to six alcoholic drinks per day (three with lunch, three with dinner), aimed at curbing excessive partying, with bans on pub crawls, happy hours, and late-night alcohol sales in shops. While technically it's a six-drink-per-day limit in specific "party zones" like parts of Mallorca and Ibiza, not Benidorm itself (which has its own local rules), the concept is similar: tighter control on all-inclusive drinks to combat antisocial behavior, though Benidorm's main focus is on public drinking bans and fines rather than strictly limiting hotel AI packages like the Balearics.
