The holiday season is the most anticipated season by the whole family. The Christmas spirit is alive in the chilly air and the spirit of giving is once again awaken inside our warm, busy hearts. So don on your coats, winter gloves, ear muffs, scarves, boots and all those winter clothing necessities that this season requires. After doubling the weight you carry around and feeling like an astronaut with all those winter attire, the whole family readies themselves to pack pounds and pounds of roast beef, ham or turkey to start the New Year. But wouldn’t you want to trade all the heavy, uncomfortable clothing for just a swimming trunk and a pair of sunglasses? Or how about changing your menu this season from the loads of bad calories to succulent fruits and mouth watering fresh catches of the sea?

This is not an easy choice for most people. The idea is uncomfortable since we are so used to this unending cycle. But isn’t it worth a try? In the end, family is all that matters and the kids will undoubtedly enjoy the snow angels made in the powdery white sand beaches.


Israel offers breathtaking beaches and the numerous luxurious hotels in Eilat is just a walk away from the fine beaches of the gulf. Families can enjoy excellent Mediterranean cuisines. Plenty of restaurants in Israel also offer dishes from all over the world - Italian, Asian, Western and French flavors. There are so many to choose from. The hotels in Eilat are surrounded by pubs and promenades for the whole family to enjoy and a mall is accessible just within the area.


The Dead Sea is one of Israel’s prides since it is one of the few natural wonders that exists in the world. Because of its high saline properties, the Dead Sea is known to have special cosmetic and health benefits. The Dead Sea hotels offer a view and a walk to this great wonder. Families can enjoy this ancient wonder with a short distance away from the world class luxurious hotels that offer exquisite, world class service. Some Dead Sea hotels are situated near the ancient biblical historical sites. These sites will provide historical and biblical facts will surely add delight to the imagination of your children. A few Dead Sea hotels offer a stunning view of the Dead Sea and the Moav Mountains. This could be the perfect place to relax and bond with the whole family.


There are no limits to what Israel has to offer. The Israel official tourism website gives visitors all the information every tourist needs, plus bookings and family travel packages that fit perfectly for the whole family.
