to get started.

Most importantly, the overall vibe was fantastic. There was a huge variety of places to relax, both inside and outside, and there was a well-organized system for storing our own food. The natural setting of the area is superb. We’ve already decided that we want to return and spend more time there.

Cozy, relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff, easy to interact with staff and other visitors or not, depending on your preference. Convenient with a car to many interesting and fun spots. Very quiet with cooler temps in the summer compared to other places in Israel. Good stargazing! Our separate little room was charming!

The property is paradise, it’s very comfy, clean and welcoming. Loved the kitchen, the place for the fire, the commons spaces, the Small Odem town and, specially, the wonderful yoga dome. Went for 1 night and stayed 2 nights. Finally, the owner is AMAZING, always willing to help and give some advices. Very super friendly chats and he made the best waffles in Israel. We had a car and had NO problem at all and could leave the car in the parking.

An Inside Look at Golan Heights Hostel

When thinking about the image and experience we wanted to offer guests at our hostel, we envisioned a place that travelers can essentially call home. We had a set image in mind for the rooms, the kitchen, the outdoor sitting area, and the overall ambience for the place. Once we had a general idea of what we wanted to do, our next challenge was on how to go about in making this dream a reality. Along the way, a number of great souls contributed their helping hands and expertise towards turning this place into what it is today - a haven for spiritual and personal fulfillment. From the beginning stage to its end result, the Golan Heights Hostel established more than just a community of volunteers and guests, it has turned into a global family, with each person leaving impact on its foundation.

Liad declaring the "Dangerous land mines, keep out" signs as propaganda. I socialised with 3 chaps whose job is to clear the land mines . To be fair, maybe they were working in an area in which tourists are not allowed.... Worst breakfast in Israel.
Liad is jolly personable, passionate, welcoming and extremely enthusiastic. He encourages everyone to push their boundaries, especially with the extraordinary hitchhiking culture. He runs a successful hostel, treating his volunteer staff and clients with respect and does an excellent job of finding time to answer all our needy questions. Despite the British Government advising one not to go, it felt extremely safe and very peaceful (if you ignore the military firing practise). The Druze culture seems enchanting. The surrounding countryside has stunning views, old forts and palaces and divine waterfalls and rivers. I saw a woodpecker, desert/wild fox and lots of fish.

It’s a hostel, so bring your food or buy it there and be creative. Our last morning there was a large group that took over the kitchen, so we couldn’t get breakfast, but I think that is unusual.

The hostel doesn't have great sound proofing, so you can hear everything (doors closing, people talking, etc). There was a group of ten staying on our second night there and it was definitely noticeable.
Beautiful area, great outdoor space, relaxed vibe, super comfortable beds. We liked it so much we stayed an extra night.
