“Get a feeling of what Kibbutz looks like in serenity”
If you're exploring dead see by car. This is the best place to stay in day 1 after you just disembarking from airport because: 1. 1:30-2:00 drive to here, 2. Close to baptism site of Jordan and next to Quran excavation site. Secure two places in day1 is enough 3. Qualify to Kalia beach 4. Get a sense and serenity of what Kibbutz is After orientation for one night, you could go proceeding to Ein Gedi and/or Masada next day.

“Quiet stay with basic facilities”
Exactly as expected from a kibbutz accommodation - simple, basic and functional. Suitable mainly for families with children, as there is plenty of outdoor space. If you are familiar with a kibbutz accommodation, you won't be disappointed.

“Wonderful desert oasis - perfect for kids”
Gorgeous kibbutz, beautiful and serene with stunning views. The rooms are comfortable with great outdoor tables and use of a BBQ. Water pressure is brilliant and beds are good. The kibbutz has 2 playgrounds for the kids and the pool is heated and shaded over the shallow end. Just 40 min drive from Jerusalem. Its our second visit and we look forward to coming back.

The breakfast was exceptional. We loved how well the Kibbutz accommodation was laid out We loved dinner we were able to purchase beside the pool. What a great idea. The free tickets to Kalia beach was the cream on top . Thank you

“A favourite place we love to revisit.”
It's our second stay here and we enjoyed it as much as the first. We love the pool and the accommodation is spotlessly clean, everything works. The staff are always friendly and helpful.

“Stunning kibbutz, perfect for families”
Perfect for little ones with a no fuss breakfast with plenty of choices, 2 fantastic playgrounds for ages 0-12. One had slides and swings, the other had more musical instruments and rope climbing. There was a shaded baby pool and the shallow area of the grown up, heated pool, was also shaded. The kibbutz is absolutely stunning with incredible views and a 5 minute drive to the dead sea, and only 30 min to Jerusalem. Kids loved it.

“A nice, quiet, and affordable place to stay with breakfast included.”
It's a great place to stay: quiet and clean. There's a conveniently located mini-market where you can get small items, snacks, soft drinks, and, if desired, alcohol. They also offer good breakfast options.

“This is a wonderful and really high-quality Kibbutz Hotel”
This is a wonderful and really high-quality Kibbutz Hotel by the Dead Sea. It is safe to stay at the hotel, because the hotel is guarded by a group of +10 soldiers of the Israeli army 24h/7d and the area is fenced with barbed wire. The hotel is like its own village, there is a shop and its own nice terraced houses. And there's a wonderful swimming pool and in the yard you can grill meat in a real wood fire and buy beer from a convenience store 100 meters away. There are nice cats in the yard that you want to feed with pieces of meat. I come back here and grill outside and swim in the wonderful swimming pool or the nearby Dead Sea swimming pool.
