Super nice and friendly host who even spontaneously helped to arrange a birthday surprise with a cake; the furnishings are a bit dated but cozy and everything was clean; communication before and during the stay was easy and fast, perfect apartment for two nights in a beautiful, quiet environment and yet just a few minutes drive to Tiberias. Thank you, Shavit family!

“Family vacation in October”
Everyone was super nice. The room was very comfortable. Israel cooks the most delicious meals, we only had breakfasts but they were perfect and a bit different each time. The swimming pool was great too.

“A pleasant place for a quiet family holiday!”
We really enjoyed our stay here. Wonderful, friendly staff, excellent cuisine for dinner and most importantly for families with children - the pool is open until 21:00. Nice, calm place!

“It was nice, we had a great time, but with a rusty start”
Shavit family are super nice people, always with a smile and it was a joy talking to them. They also went beyond standard and gave us their baby monitor because we forgot ours. Great grill.

“Great spot for a getaway. Lush gardens, private surroundings, good accommodation, easy to Tiberias”
The area was around 5km from the Sea of Galilee which we wanted and was both private, and very quiet. The accommodation was lovely, with the buildings set in peaceful, lush surroundings, lots of flowers, and a great pool and sauna. We were a long way away from the outside world when we were at the property which we loved. There was a fully appointed kitchen with food made to order. Our hosts were very helpful and willing to assist in any way.

“Best stay on the Jesus Trail”
Kind and friendly staff. Hugely generous food portions, you will feel spoilt for choice at breakfast and dinner. The chef is very passionate. The St Peter’s Fish for dinner and the swimming pool is the highlight for me. It is right in the trail (30mins) to the Arbel synagogue and Mount Arbel where Jesus gave the great commission and sermon on the mount.

“10/10 Outstanding location”
The location was ideal. Even though we were out and about all day, we came back to a nice and quiet location. Good morning walk to the Arbel Synagogue. The breakfast was absolutely amazing. The presentation and taste was just outstanding. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to tour the Sea of Galillee and yet have a quite time on the outskirts. It was 5mins drive to the Sea of Galillee 10/10
