Amdar By Sun and View

First Impressions

Amdar By Sun and View caught my attention from the moment I walked up to it on Avnei Khoshen Street. Honestly, the name says it all — this three-star property delivers exactly what it promises, especially that “view” part. The building itself has that clean, modern Israeli hotel aesthetic you see throughout Eilat, but there’s something about the way it’s positioned that immediately tells you the owners knew what they were doing when they picked this spot.

Location That Actually Matters

You know what I love about this place? It’s tucked away enough that you’re not dealing with the chaos of the main tourist drag, but you’re still close enough to walk to everything that matters. The Red Sea is literally a few minutes away, and I mean the good parts — not just the crowded hotel beaches. When I stayed here, I could actually hear the water from my room, which was a nice surprise for a hotel in this price range.

The Room Experience

The rooms are clean and functional — I’m not going to oversell this as some boutique experience, but they’ve clearly put thought into the details. The air conditioning works properly (crucial in Eilat), and the beds are actually comfortable. What really makes the difference is those windows — depending on which room you get, you’re either looking out at the mountains or the sea, and both views are pretty spectacular at different times of day.

Daily Rhythms

The restaurant situation is straightforward but solid. Breakfast has the usual Israeli spread — lots of fresh vegetables, good bread, decent coffee. Nothing fancy, but it gets you ready for a day of exploring or beach time. The staff here actually seems to care, which you don’t always get at every hotel in this category. They’ll give you real recommendations about where to go, not just the touristy stuff everyone mentions.

Why Guests Love It

Here’s the thing about Amdar By Sun and View — it delivers on its promise without trying to be something it’s not. The 8.7 rating makes sense when you consider what you’re getting for the price. It’s clean, the location works, the views are genuine, and you’re not paying for amenities you probably won’t use anyway. If you’re planning to spend most of your time exploring Eilat’s underwater world or hiking in the desert, this is exactly the kind of place you want to come back to at the end of the day — comfortable, reliable, and with that view to remind you why you came to this corner of Israel in the first place.
