Welcome Back: It’s time for Israel

A Land Reawakened: Energy, Connection & Mediterranean Light

Israel is buzzing again. Families are returning for long-awaited simchas, couples are planning overdue escapes, and communities are reconnecting with a country that manages to feel both deeply familiar and endlessly surprising. Whether you come seeking meaning, celebration or Mediterranean sunshine, Israel offers something profound: a sense of belonging interwoven with adventure, flavour and history. This season, travellers want more than an itinerary - they want connection. And that’s exactly what Israel delivers.

Tel Aviv: Mediterranean Energy, Unfiltered

Golden beaches, gallery-lined boulevards and a food scene that borders on obsession - Tel Aviv is a city that hums with creativity. Mornings begin with espresso on Rothschild, afternoons stretch along the sand, and evenings unfold in restaurants where reservations are prized and flavours are bold.

Tel Aviv is also the perfect launchpad for wider exploration: Jerusalem’s sacred sites, the Judean desert’s deep stillness, the wineries of the North, and coastal drives filled with light and salt air.

Here is a closer look at our most requested stays in Tel Aviv right now - each offering its own style, personality and story.

Casa Malka — A Private Residence Above the City

A multi-level, four-bedroom haven with sweeping city and sea views, Casa Malka feels like Tel Aviv from the inside out. A rooftop pool overlooks the skyline, while spacious interiors and meticulous design make it ideal for families, VIP guests and travellers seeking total privacy.

  • Five minutes from Gordon and Dizengoff

  • Ten-minute walk to the beach

The Norman — Heritage, Artistry & Quiet Refinement
