    Furniture in the little salon needs updating.

    Breakfast was excellent and the family were so warm and welcoming. I would definitely go back.

    If you don’t have a car, you’ll need to be a hiker or bus rider. That was fine for me.

    Good stop for hiking the Arbel and Jesus trail region. Nice grounds, pleasant house. Lots of options. Family run, very friendly, good food.

    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!

    1. Breakfast - obligated! :) 2. Place is remarkable: safety, silent, 10 min. by foot or 5min. by car from Arbel National Park. 3, Very nice staff - owners of hotel. They gave us good recommendations about our trip and very good restaurants around. 4. You may order a dinner on Hotel - it is very good too! 5. We went out from the Hotel on the morning in the direction of Arbel Ancient Synagogue - 10min. way It was magnificent view!

    It wasn't a problem for us, but the stairs to the double room are quite steep.

    There is a small store nearby, but that’s all! The nearest supermarket or restaurant is 15-20 km away. It is better to think in advance about what you will eat or entertain the children with sweets.

    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!

    Great spot for a getaway. Lush gardens, private surroundings, good accommodation, easy to Tiberias

    • Double Room

    We chose the smallest room when we booked which was our fault and not that of the property. Traveling with my grown son meant we were a little cramped for space and had to talk a few flights of stairs with our bags. Again this was our fault and the property had other, more spacious options, just not available to us at this time due to the hosts assisting displaced Israeli families due to the ongoing conflict.

    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.
