We chose the location because of some good reviews and the pictures looked great (big house on a green lawn, surrounded by trees). What a change from a hotel room. However, I assume we had different expectations then other visitors. We have been promised a big family cabin, but received a rather small unit (even though the place was not... More

Stayed at the cabins whilst on the Jesus Trail. The cabins are very comfortable and have a bedroom and separate small living area with full size fridge. There is a swimming pool which was great on a hot day. One downside is that it is located next to a cow shed which was quite smelly and at times noisy.

These log home cabins are on a kibbutz about 10 minutes from the edge of Tiberias. The cabins offer a alternative to staying at a hotel in the city if you want to reduce costs and stay away from the city. The bedrooms, kitchen, and living room were all great. Beds were comfortable. Everything was very clean. The owner/operator was... More

We were looking for somewhere to stay in the eastern Galilee. From past experience we knew not to stay in Tiberias which is the Israeli equivalent of Benidorm ( Spain) and makes even Eilat seem upmarket. Arbel is a small settlement located on the mountain range overlooking the Kinneret ( Sea of Galilee) - which is fine as you have... More

When traveling/sleeping in northern Israel near the Golan, take the extra 5 mile trip out of Tiberias to Arbel--it's well worth it. Inside a community of small homes and B&B's is Arbel Holiday Homes--a quaint "village" of individual log homes fit for the country experience. We arrived by car and were greeted with fresh strawberry jam, made from locally grown... More

We stayed in a cute all-wooden 1-bedroom cottage, clean & well maintained, air condition OK, kitchen equipped with all basic utensils, microwave, fridge. Rich and tasty breakfast (optional, 12 USD). Nice and quiet location overlooking the beautiful Galilee landscape. Owners (family Konwitz) very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the peace and silence of the place very much. Benny Konwitz (owner),... More

Two families of 4 stayed here and we rented side-by-side cabins each having 1 bedroom and a 2nd room with 2 futon-type beds. Both rooms were very small but adequate. We did not spend much time in our rooms, so it wasn't a big deal, but don't expect a lot of space. Being about 10 minutes outside of Tiberias was... More

Our family stayed at the Arbel Country Lodging homes for 5 nights in March of 2007. We stayed in a charming (and very clean) wooden cabin (called a “Tsimmer” in Hebrew), located inside a small, semi-agricultural community. There was a basic kitchen that worked well for meals. In addition, you can get a B&B breakfast for an additional cost. We... More
