Idan Lodge in the Arava

The owner is charming and fulfilled every request, letting us leave early without any extra charge. The rooms are large and clean, the showers are new and indulgent, and there are two fully equipped kitchens. The place has a convenience store open even on Friday and Saturday evenings, with a lunch break. The pool is a 2‑minute drive (4‑minute walk), and there’s a high‑quality coffee cart 4 minutes on foot. In the rooms, there’s a small kitchenette with a fridge, kettle, coffee, sugar, and tea, and a cooled dining area; we were 18 people and everyone had space, plus more. In summary: full value for the price, highly recommended.

“נהננו מהמקום ומהאוירה ובהחלט יש סיכוי שנחזור”

The place is huge, the new setup is clean and pleasant, and the vibe is incredibly nice even though it's smack in the middle of the desert. The garden is furnished and there's a kitchen that lets you prep food. The host was very kind, friendly, patient, and stayed available throughout our stay. Highly recommend for families wanting to stay together. The pillows were uncomfortable. I had no connection to the kibbutz itself for food—important to bring your own or arrive after eating. The kibbutz pool is huge but not very clean and only opens from 17:00‑20:00 or in the morning. During the times we most wanted to hit the pool—around noon—it was closed.

The owner was very nice and the place itself was rare and pleasant; I recommend it to everyone. The price is the best you can get from it.

“מומלץ ונקי”

Looking for a clean spot? This is the place for you… It left you surrounded by dusty desert ruins and neglect for a price that feels like a bargain. The space is roomy, clean, and equipped with everything required. The shower is good and large, no mold, with a glass door instead of a curtain that sticks to you; it's big and spacious. The rooms have a subtle design and the price is reasonable. We were a couple staying one night mid‑week. We checked in at the bus stop and the host drove us there in his car. There's an outdoor kitchen and a large dining area. Everything was excellent. The only downside: we prefer a firm mattress, but the soft mattress is also good.
