Rural Holidays

Rural tourism in Israel has always been an integral part of the Israeli tourist map. For decades the kibbutzim and agricultural settlements throughout Israel have incorporated a vital and independent addition to their historical services - by offering accommodation in Guesthouses, Rural Hotels and Residential Units.

Rural Holidays – for everyone

Rural accommodations  can l be the original rooms on the kibbutz which have been restored, are clean and comfortable, and provide a familiar and domestic feeling. However, often it is quite the opposite, and many of the kibbutzim have renovated their guesthouses and convalescent homes, turning them into destinations in their own right. They will be equipped with a separate Dining Room for the guests, as well as Convention Halls, a Spa and even a separate Swimming Pool. Thus, a rural vacation is also an appropriate destination for anyone wanting the pampering that a hotel can provide, but prefer this to be close to nature and not in a location that is packed with tourists. Furthermore, many of the kibbutzim and agricultural settlements have invested in on-site attractions for their guests: from botanical gardens, art galleries and animal  corners.  Sporting activities are also an integral part of most kibbutz resorts.

Rural Holidays – can also be pampering

Many people love rural tourism. Families and groups wanting to hike along the trails outdoors may choose to sleep in rural accommodations instead of sitting in lobbies of hotels.  Sleep in clean beds, eat a traditional Israeli  breakfast in the kibbutz dining room,  and then off for an amazing hike in sturdy walking shoes!  Upon returning from the hike, rela and enjoy the kibbutz swimming pool.  Families can take active rural vacations that incorporate attractions such as water-parks, jeep tours, rafting or visiting nature reserves.  Generally rural accommodation is significantly cheaper than hotel accommodation.  

You will definitely get back to nature on a fabulous rural holiday in Israel, so if you want to have a walking holiday in Israel that includes overnight accommodation, and want your vacation to take place in a warm and authentic environment which can be found only in Israel, rural accommodation is your answer.
