sea view & pool eilat

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to sea view & pool eilat, I’ll be honest — it doesn’t look like much from the street. It’s tucked away on HaKochav Street in a residential building, and you might actually drive past it if you’re not paying attention. But here’s the thing about Eilat — sometimes the best spots are the ones that don’t scream for attention. This four-star property is essentially a well-appointed apartment with hotel-level service, and once you’re inside, you’ll understand why couples keep coming back.

The Space Itself

The room is actually more like a proper studio apartment, which makes sense given the address setup. You’ve got a decent-sized living area that flows into a compact but functional kitchen — nothing fancy, but it’s got everything you need if you want to grab groceries from the nearby Shufersal and make breakfast instead of eating out every meal. The air conditioning works well (crucial in Eilat’s heat), and honestly, the whole place feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a typical hotel. The decor is simple and clean, though don’t expect anything too Instagram-worthy.

That Pool and View Situation

Okay, so about that pool — it’s not huge, but it’s perfectly adequate for cooling off after a day exploring the city or hitting the beaches. The real winner here is the view, especially if you time it right during sunset. You can actually see glimpses of the Red Sea from certain angles, and while it’s not a full panoramic situation, it’s pretty nice to wake up to. The pool area gets good sun most of the day, and I found it was rarely crowded since this isn’t a massive resort-style property.

Location Perks

Here’s where this place really shines — the location is genuinely excellent, and recent guests have been rating it highly for good reason. You’re in the Shaḥamon neighborhood, which puts you close enough to the action but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the tourist chaos every minute. The beach is maybe a 10-minute walk, and you can easily get to the marina or the main shopping areas without much hassle. Plus, there’s free parking right on site, which anyone who’s tried to park in central Eilat will tell you is worth its weight in gold.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t the fanciest place in Eilat, but it hits all the right notes for what most people actually want. The 8.8 rating makes sense when you consider the combination of good location, reasonable price point, and the fact that you get more space than a typical hotel room. Couples especially seem to appreciate the privacy and the ability to have their own little retreat. The hosts are responsive, the place is clean, and you’re not paying resort prices for amenities you might not even use. It’s the kind of spot where you can actually relax without feeling like you need to be “on” all the time — and in a destination like Eilat, that’s pretty valuable.
