Roy United States of America

The garden room with jacuzzi was super bid and outside was brilliant! Glad I have upgraded my stay!!

Ilana Israel

Excellent boutique hotel for experiencing the Negev Desert. Staff was super attentive, handling special requests with ease and perfection, going out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was the best breakfast experience we have ever had with fresh pastries, fruits, muesli, and vegetables all served individually. If I was to own a hotel or Bed and Breakfast, I would have my staff stay at the Yehelim to experience what I would expect for the service. Thank you Yehelim for a wonderful 25th Snniversary for me and my wife!!

Nancy United States of America

Everything! The cordiality of the staff, the breakfast, the view from the room! This place is very much a dream!

Victor Brazil

Wonderful staff and blissfully comfortable bed. The breakfast was superb and left us wanting for nothing, I was impressed by the way that staff replenished the breakfast buffet as each guest selected their choice. Service was prompt and familial. Ginger Cat was particularly cute. Overall a wonderful and most pleasant experience, making a perfect weekend in the desert.

Gili
We are a small family run place, which allows us to keep our personal touch on everything: cooking, maintenance, and above all - the service and the interaction with our guests. We bought the property few years ago after having enough of the hustle and bustle of Tel Aviv area, and came with our children from the center of Israel to Arad. Looking backwards, we realize it was very wise to leave our careers behind and turning to do what we really love. Loving what we do seems to be the secret of it. Our experience as travelers allows both to to meet travelers' needs (and wishes) and to help our guests to make the best out of your visit to our amazing region.
We are a married couple, proud parents of 2 kids, at our mid 40', and Yehelim is our baby. Though her higher education was in Middle East and Arab Literature studies, Gali worked all the years as Senior Manager. Gili Was a travel journalist for many years, focusing manly on nature preservation issues. He is still a gregarious nature enthusiast (not to say a tree huger), who's happy to go out to the desert anytime. Gali's main interest are people and her biggest hobby is to look (yeh, here) for the best place to stay around the world. Both of us enjoy cooking and baking, and - whenever possible - traveling with the kids.
Arad is a lovely town, located in the desert 1,000m above the Dead Sea. That means a great climate, dry but not as hot as the Dead Sea Valley. Around Arad there is a variety of hiking biking and jeep trails and tourist sites - s.a. the Dead Sea, Masada, Tel Arad and Yatir Forest. Some of the trails are starting almost at our doorstep.
