Kalia Kibbutz Holiday Village

Rundreise mit Gruppe, eine Nacht hier. Das grosse Plus ist sicher die Umgebung. Mitten in der Wüste eine herrliche Pase mit teopischen Pflanzen, alles blüht wunderbar, schön zum spazieren. Die Bingalows hingegen sind geschmackssache. Es hat alles was man braucht, aber sie sind klein und einfach, mit schönem Sitzplatz. Das Abendessen im Kibbutzspeisesaal auch einfach alles in Selbstbedienung. Ordentlich vom Geschmack her. Das Frühstück reichhaktig wie in Israel gewohnt. Für eine Nacht ok

Dirty and stinky. This place is built illegally. The people here act really nice but the moment you remind them that they are on stolen land they start to play the victim. shame on them. Do not recommend.

This was the most “bare bones” place I stayed in quite a while. No phones in rooms. Floor was wet when we arrived. Lumpy beds. Doors hard to close and lock. Did not feel comfortable here. Only benefit was the many stray cats on the property. They were very friendly and sweet. Property is nice to walk around and food is good. But actual cabins feel like a run-down summer camp.

קבענו שאני מגיעה מאוחר בלילה ועוזבת מאוד מוקדם בבוקר, משאירים לי מפתחות בשער. . אבל המלון פשוט שכחו ממני. הבעיות שלי נפתרו על ידי חייל בשער, אחרי שהוא הציע לי לחפש טלפונים שאיתם הסכמתי ולטייל בשטח של בית מלון, לחפש מישהו.! כמובן, לא היה אף אחד והטלפונים לא עונים , זה לילה! בסוף חזרתי לחייל , הוא מצא מישהו שנתן לי חדר. ארוחת בוקר לא הוצעו, אף אחד לא התנצל בפני בשיחת הבוקר . Договорилась о прибытии поздно ночью и мне оставят ключи. Но гостиница обо мне просто забыли. мои проблемы решал солдат на воротах, после того как предложил поискать телефоны с кем я договаривалась и поездить по территории отеля, поискать кого нибудь . конечно никого небыло и телефоны не отвечали, это ночь! в конце солдат нашел какого то мужчину котрый дал мне комнату . завтрак с собой не предложили, на мой утренний звонок в отель ни кто не извинился. Убедитесь , что есть все контакты , если едете ночью . А гостинице желаю улучшить отношение и коммуникацию персонала с гостями.

We were part of a small tour group that stayed here for one night; I assume the logic was that we could experience Kibbutz lodging. I wish they hadn’t. This is basic living with no traditional comforts. We got two single beds which is not what you need on a tour of a country. Facilities were limited with not explanation of what was on offer. A shop is on site which is open for a few hours to buy alcohol (which you can enjoy on the space outside your rooms). The shop provides everything but certainly we were made to feel unwelcome. Dinner is in a dining hall for the few guests staying. It was ok but just a few tables in a large room. Food was ok. Overall one to miss - I certainly didn’t need the experience

Only stayed a night but found the experience charming. Rooms looked/felt very well used (=looked somewhat worn) but were clean and everything worked as it should. Decent breakfast, helpful reception staff, and a genuinely lovely swimming pool. A good first experience of a kibbutz for us, and far better than the sanitised glitz of Ein Bokek down the road.
