This vacation club is distinguished by its small structure, well fitted out outside spaces and its ''all inclusive'' formula, pushed to the maximum.

About 1 mile north of Eilat, at the gates of the desert. and almost 1.2 miles away from the beach ( free shuttles). Allow about 5 minutes fro transfer from the airport.
Located in retreat from the club activities, and then, in a peaceful area, the rooms are grouped in small Oriental style blocks, designed around a central patio. All the units have two rooms: a small room with a double bed and a living-room fitted out with a sofa that can accommodate two children. The wooden and wrought iron furniture matches perfectly with the general style of the hotel. As for the facilities, they offer two TVs (one in each room), a telephone, a safe and air-conditioning. The bathrooms, even if quite small, are one of the largest that we saw in Eilat. Larger families can have communicating rooms.
Built on a large area, the Magic Sunrise has 279 rooms, spread out between small one-level buildings connected by paved walkways and large green areas. Upon entering the site, you will see a large pyramid housing an indoor heated swimming pool of almost 300 m˛, a buffet-restaurant, lots of lounges and a small fitness room. Outside, you will find a large swimming pool and sport grounds including a professional football field. Everything here is designed for families, witnessed by the different playgrounds for children and the mini-club equipped with games, TV and video. Free shuttles will get you to Eilat town centre, the beach and the different main interests in the area.
The Magic Sunrise offers no less than 5 meals a day, which will delight even the most ravenous eaters. A main restaurant, located under the pyramid, serves a kosher buffet four times a day - for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight meals. There is a lot of diversity among the foods with a different theme every day ( Oriental, French, South-American, Asian...). The drinks, including local alcohols, and the food are served at will. A space is also designed for children. During the day, a barbecue is available outside. And for the night owls, the Moonlight Club offers drinks 24 hours a day.
Despite all its assets, the Magic Sunrise is the farthest establishment of Eilat from the beach. Free shuttles are available to get you to the beach which has a downtown club. The beach is noisy, because of the loudspeakers that offer continous music. Deckchairs and sunshades are available for free, but except for kayak and padalo, the water sports are an extra. The water here is very clear but there is not too much sand and the seaside is pretty rocky:
The Club Magic Sunrise is an exception in this area. The only real vacation village on the area, it offers discreet and sober architecture that contrasts strongly with the building style of the Eilat's hotels. Plus, it offers the'' all inclusive'' formula, including, besides all meals, all kinds of free activities like tennis, sea kayaking, climbing wall and also jeep rides in the desert or horse-riding in the nearby kibboutz. The rates are, obviously, quite expensive.

Located a step away from Eilat, facing the sea, the Ambassador is a privileged address for those who love scuba diving . A good atmosphere and quality facilities.

This small hotel, quite old-looking but well-maintained, has the huge advantage of being located on the beach. A cheap destination for young people, seeking seaside pleasures.

The Agamin hotel is a peaceful place where you can have a lot of rest far from the agitation of the Eilat's oceanfront and the other hotels. The Agamin hotel will definitely delight the couples. The swimming pool with hammocks and matresses offers a real moment of rest.

Despite the fact that it stands opposite the airport, for better or worse, the Astral Sea Side is nevertheless the only 4 star hotel in Eilat overlooking the beach. Having been newly renovated in 2008, the decor here is certainly modern, but you'll soon see beyond the surface the lack of finish underneath. The guest rooms are large and the facilities decent enough so the hotel does offer good value for money on the whole.

Set up on the oceanfront, the Royal Beach is one of the nicest hotels of Eilat and remains our favorite. Luxury lovers and those admiring modern art will not be disappointed.

From the four palaces of Eilat, the Herods is the nicest due to its design, its architecture and its decoration. A prestigious place that will delight those loving luxury and the excessiveness.

Watch out, you're about to fall in love! This hotel, the most charming in the city, is a real favourite! Contrary to the many enormous hotels found in the area, this establishment is made up of several smaller buildings peacefully nestled in amongst the well-maintained greenery on the hillside. The amenities in the guest rooms are fantastic, the services excellent, and the panoramic view from the swimming pool is truly unique... The only negative point is that you'll have to get used to the often noisy, incessant comings and goings of the electric cars that take guests to and from their rooms.

This hotel has discreet refinement and luxury, and is located in a stunning area on the seaside. The only bad part: the airport runaway is very close.

For a long time considered the only palace of Eilat, the King Solomon's preserved its name thanks to continuous renovation and the remarkable kids club. It does not have direct access to the beach.
