Didn't regret it!

I always thought that Israel is a country worth visiting, but not as a place of rest on the sea. I thought someday to visit Jerusalem, but I never dreamed of the sea there. And then suddenly they took it and went. In winter. To Israel. To Red. The idea was my husband's. Why not! He loves all sorts of promotions and discounts, he found a very profitable tour with a vacation on the Red Sea from the IS travel agency. We decided that everything is better than sitting at home and waved. They flew on Ural Airlines, departed on time, but they were really strained with food. Some, apparently popular dishes, were not enough for everyone and had to take what was left. The airport of arrival was Ovda, sooo small modest (duty free, by the way, about nothing), jumped on the bus and drove to the hotel. We lived in Leonardo Privilege in Eilat 4 *. It is far from the sea, about 15 minutes walk. And the beach of the Herods hotel should be used. On the beach, sand, sunbeds and umbrellas are free.

We were in February - we swam, the sea is not super warm, of course, but not icy either. But clean and fish swim around. Mostly Russians bathe, there were few people. On the way to the sea there are many shops with clothes and just supermarkets, markets. The hotel itself is very decent, I especially remember the food, and even all inclusive))) Very varied and tasty, it's impossible to stop. In the mornings, delicious coffee, ice cream in the evenings, desserts, fruits, I generally keep quiet about meat, vegetables and various dishes. So if you are worried about food, you will definitely like it here. Our room was behind the pool, on the second floor. The view is nothing special, the room is not bad, clean and good cleaning, there are Russian channels. Opposite us in the room, tourists once swore at cleaning, I don’t know what happened to them, but we really appreciated the daily change of all linen and the general order.

In the evenings, cafes, bars are open, where you can smoke a hookah, where you can dance or just drink wine on the embankment. Well, we looked into the local shopping center, there is something to see. Many locals, even probably the majority, speak Russian, well, everyone speaks English for sure. WE didn’t go on excursions, we just enjoyed our vacation, I didn’t expect it to be so warm, they say it’s always like that in winter. We are straight kayfanuli, relax, did not regret that we went.
