    A pleasant stay in the country with beautiful views all around.

    The location and view are amazing. The owners are pleasant and professional. The room is quiet and functional. Although this top room is not best for those who have trouble with steep stairs.

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

    Wonderful breakfast, simple but well-maintained facilities (especially the heated pool!), comfortable room, gorgeous view of the Arbel cliff a short walk away.

    Our bathtub was peeling and so was the ceiling. The room was not so clean.

    Great place. Good food and super friendly staff.

    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
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • 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.

    I’m sad because I couldn’t figure out how to work the coffee maker and I ended up setting off the smoke alarms. I felt awful but Israel was so gracious. Thank God!

    The breakfast was absolutely amazing!! And seeing the synagogue ruins across the street was an extra bonus!

    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.

    Nothing

    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

    Can only be reached by car, plenty of parking available though

    It was our second time staying with Sarah and Yisrael - Probably the best hosts we've come across. The place isn't the newest, but is clean, extremely well kept, and the room facilities are more than could be asked for (Kitchen, bath tub, showers and balcony). The swimming pool is great and the overall environment, views, vegetation and house pets are very pleasant. The Shavit family also serves the absolute best breakfast in the country.
