Expected more than we got. It is recommended as a 4 star hotel. The location is about 6 km from Eilat ( free shuttle bus number 333 also runs right from the airport). You so no need to get a taxi. The evening buffet you forget for the price (120 NIS per person = € 25 ). The breakfast buffet is just. Better food if you went to the beach bar. Is about 20 minutes walk toward Eilat - www. Barbeach. Co. Il. - on the right-hand side also has an outdoor terrace over the water. In the hotel you'll with Golfcaddies to the bungalows. Very good service as the bungalows on the steep hill.
