Cheap Hotels in Eilat — What to Expect
For a sun-drenched escape where the desert meets the Red Sea, look to Eilat. This is Israel’s premier resort city, a place defined by its extraordinary coral reefs and dramatic mountain backdrop. The main draw is the underwater world of the Coral Beach Nature Reserve, where you can snorkel right off the shore among colorful fish. Above water, you can take a cable car up to the summit of Mount Zefahot for panoramic views or watch the sunset over three countries from the promenade.
Eilat works well for families seeking easy beach holidays and couples looking for a relaxed base with great diving. Most visitors stay in the central hotel strip along the North Beach, which puts everything within walking distance, while the more secluded southern area near the Royal Beach offers quieter luxury. Getting here is straightforward, with Ramon Airport just a short drive from the city center, and the border crossings to Jordan and Egypt are close for day trips.
On HOTEVI, you’ll find 47 places to stay, ranging from simple, budget-friendly hostels perfect for backpackers to all-inclusive family resorts with massive pools. The selection is dominated by large, modern hotels focused on delivering great value and direct beach access, though a few smaller boutique options provide a more personalized feel.
