Had a late arrival but Ra‘anan the owner himself was waiting for us and explained everything we had to know. The villa has a lot of atmosphere and you feel at home and like a big family together with the other guests. Everything is well maintained and clean, we slept very well in the comfortable bed. There is facilities in the common kitchen that you can use if you want to make your own meal. We will come back.

The lady is so sweet, really lovely. The place was in a convenient location and there was good communication for arrival. The bed was comfy and the sheets were clean.

The pace is great, lots of sitting areas, we've rented the whole place (villa+a small house), and we were 4 couples with kids. The kids had a blast. The area is quiet - we did not hear the neighbors. The host is extremely helpful and friendly.

Arad itself is nothing special, but it’s a fine town with all the necessary resources (groceries, gas, restaurants, etc.). Location is its strength. An hour or less by car to Ein Gedi, the Dead Sea, S’dom, Beit Guvrin, Mamshit, and many more historical and natural wonders. Make it your jumping off point to enjoy the northern Negev.

A small town with a great connection to Jerusalem and Mesada. Even on Sabbath you find a nice bar and Supermarkets open in walking distance from our accomodation. Its great for a short stay to visit Mesada (we went to west-side entrance) and to take a day trip to Dead Sea. From Arad you can either go back north or continue to south.. however, after two nights you find that Arad itself doesnt offer much more to discover..

Arad is 30 minutes from the DEAD SEA Beach and a lot of Israeli national hiking routes. (Massada, Nahal Arugot, NAhal of King David) . The prices at Arad about 1/4 of the DEAD SEA area. So just rent a car. :)

We had a lovely stay at Bashiri's place! Very friendly and hospitable host who made us feel most welcome immediately. Do rely on the pizza recommendation :)
Enjoyed the jacuzzi at night after a long tour in the desert - most delightful!

Clean very pleasant town.
Clean very pleasant town. Balanced, not too busy but not too quiet. Plenty shops, malls eateries etc. Absolutely beautiful walks and viewpoints basically in the town. Would very highly recommend for a young family looking to hike a bit and chill.
We stayed 3 nights in this cute place in Arad to visit the Dead Sea only 25 minutes away by car. The apartment was tastefully decorated in a modern style and functional in every aspect. Small tea kitchen with fridge and microwave and a nice dining table to sit at. Really cosy with the old school record player and collection of nice records - we danced more than once;) The hostess was very friendly and easy to work with answering messages before arrival and making appointments. We can only recommend others to stay at this place!
Bashiri's place was wonderful - clean and modern with a very comfortable bed and a great jacuzzi. Some places say they have jacuzzis but this was the real thing. Nice and warm and so relaxing. There were even robes provided! The shower was easy to use and large. The small garden area was cute and private. The gates to the property were upscale and there was even a private parking spot. This area of Arad seems upscale, with new building on the street. I wish we had been able to stay longer - hopefully next time.
The place is beautiful! We had an excellent experience. The Yurt is amazing. Well designed and cozy. Great balcony. Comfortable bed. Sweet little kitchenette. Shower is amazing with good water pressure. Lovely yard, with herbs to make great tea, and great view to the desert. The hosts were very kind and generous, made us feel super comfortable. And Arad, the city, is awesome. Also there's a great pizza place up the street (with amazing vegan options!) Perfect place for a vacation. Would definitely come back.
What an enchanting apartment! Spotless, charming, comfortable, great location a minute walk from the city center, well stocked with all the essentials, thoughtful hosts who paid attention to details. The guardrail on the kiddy bed and the complementary groceries and bottle of wine were a nice touch. The staff was amazing, incredibly helpful and accomodating going out of their way to make us comfortable. We had a really wonderful time and will definetly be returning to Mory's Place on our next visit to Arad.
We came for 1 night after a night partying in the desert. The host Dana was amazing, did everything to ensure our stay will be perfect. The vila itself is brand new, suprisingly big, the beds are super comfortable we slept 12 hours. The large jacuzzi with the desert view is defenitly one of the place's highlights. Dana prepares the most perfect brakefests very reach and tasty. Overall, one of the best places we slept in Israel. Totaly worth it. Will defintley come back again.
We were seven people and had two nice apartments in the house (which, I think has even two more apartments for guests). The team was very friendly and helpful, also with smaller requests and the apartments were well decorated in good taste.
If you have or want to stay in Arad or near the Dead Sea (without having to pay tourist-trap rates at the hotels down there), the apartments can definitely be recommended.
The location is on a nice side street in Arad - close to everything, but far enough away to provide beautiful views of the desert. The room itself is a little tight space-wise, but the porch more than makes up for it. It is definitely a romantic spot and we spent our evenings on the swing looking out at the desert and in the mornings we had breakfast. We definitely hope to stay there again.
Great hotel to vist the Dead Sea and Masada. It is respectively 30 and 45 minutes drive by the most spectacular road, it is so much cheaper than the actual Dead Sea resorts and you have city infrastructure nearby, with shops, restaurants, fast foods etc. Simple rooms with all things needed, very good breakfast. Big thanks for reception staff for early check in and late check out.
We loved our stay at this accommodation! The bed was very comfy, it's very clean und you have everything you need in the flat. There's even a private balcony. It was the best room we had during our traveling in Israel. The owner is very nice and helpful and even brought us homemade cake for breakfast. Thank you such much for everything!
Nice location and view. But the best is the staff! If you are fed up with unfriendly hotel staff in Israel this is the the oasis you are looking for. Only hotel in Israel we felt genuinely welcomed as guests and not considered as a walking cash-machine. If we return to Israel to enjoy spring weather in the desert this is the place.
Hi Liran, we'd like to express our gratitude for the lovely weekend in your apartment in Arad. It was a great opportunity for us to rest and enjoy a lovely place in the middle of the desert.
The apartment is really convenient and well equipt.
Thanks a million. Highly recommended. Hila & Milli
Nice space, both inside as the outside patio with great views. Next to the private patio a garden with BBQ and several sitting places. Playground behind the house.
Enough cookinggear to make your own meals if you like.
Quite and safe area at the outside of Arad but still close to the center.
The place is very close to Arad bus station. We took a little stop here to travel to the Dead Sea and Masada by bus. The place is very clean and nice and equipped with basic kitchen utensils. There's also outdoor space where you can hang beach wears.
The place was clean and nice. Kitchen well equipped. Good wifi. It's a good place to stay by the Dead Sea and to travel around.
Great value to money.
Keep in mind it's Arad so it about half an hour from the sea.
It’s a nice location if you want to use it as base for hiking trips to the Masada, the Dead Sea, Ein Gedi areas. Arad has a beautiful lookout point into the dessert, which is highly recommended
Fully renovated hotel, the staff is super friendly and helpful.
Nathan and Hila were very responsive and respectful.
The view do the desert and dead sea is amazing
Highly recommended.
