About this stay

Your Eilat Retreat

First Impressions

Walking up to Sunshine Suite Boutique Only 5 Min Walk To The Beach – By SEAELO EILAT, you immediately get the sense this isn’t your typical cookie-cutter hotel. It’s tucked away on Barkan Street in Eilat, and honestly, the location feels like a local secret — close enough to everything but removed from the tourist chaos that can overwhelm the main strip. The building itself has that boutique charm that the name promises, with a modern facade that doesn’t try too hard to impress.

The Five-Minute Beach Promise

Here’s the thing about that “5 minutes to the beach” claim — it’s actually accurate, which is refreshing. I timed it myself, and you can easily reach the northern beaches in about four to five minutes of comfortable walking. What’s even better is that you’re not hitting the most crowded sections; you’ll find yourself at stretches of sand where locals tend to hang out. The walk takes you through some quieter residential streets, so you get a peek at how people actually live in this Red Sea resort town.

Suite Life

The room I stayed in felt more like a well-designed apartment than a hotel suite. There’s a proper kitchenette with everything you’d need — not just a mini-fridge and microwave, but actual cooking facilities. This is where the four-star rating makes sense; it’s not about marble lobbies or concierge services, but rather thoughtful amenities that make your stay genuinely comfortable. The air conditioning works brilliantly (crucial in Eilat), and the Wi-Fi is solid throughout the space.

Location Perks

You know what I really appreciated? There’s decent parking available, which anyone who’s driven in Eilat will tell you is a minor miracle. The neighborhood has a few local eateries within walking distance — not the touristy places, but spots where you can grab decent hummus or falafel without paying resort prices. There’s also a small market nearby if you want to stock up on basics for that kitchenette, though honestly, the selection of restaurants in central Eilat is just a short walk or taxi ride away.

Why Guests Love It

This place works because it doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not. The 8.9 rating reflects what you actually get — a clean, well-equipped suite in a great location without the inflated prices of beachfront properties. It’s particularly good for travelers who want the independence of self-catering but don’t want to sacrifice comfort or location. The staff is helpful without being intrusive, and the whole operation feels efficiently run. If you’re looking for a pool scene or lobby bar, this isn’t your spot, but if you want a solid base for exploring Eilat’s beaches, diving spots, and desert attractions, it’s actually perfect.

"A Perfect Stay for Families – Thoughtful, Cozy, and Convenient!"

From the moment we arrived, Nathalie, our host, welcomed us with a warm smile and an incredibly helpful attitude. Her kindness and genuine hospitality made us feel right at home.

The apartment is clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The shaded private garden was a standout feature, especially for families with kids—it provided a peaceful and safe outdoor space for play and relaxation, adding so much value to our stay.

The kitchen was equipped with everything we could possibly need: coffee, salt, oil, pepper, all utensils, and even a stove for cooking meals for our child. Every little detail was taken care of, making it so easy and comfortable for us.

The bathroom, while simple, was spotless and functional, with hot water and thoughtful touches like shampoo, conditioner, and bath soap.

The neighborhood is super quiet, offering a tranquil retreat after a day of exploring, yet it’s conveniently close to everything Eilat has to offer. Having private parking for our car made it even more convenient and stress-free.

The warm, cozy atmosphere of the house truly made it feel like a home away from home. Whether you’re a family with kids or anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped place to stay, this apartment is an excellent choice.

Thank you, Nathalie, for your care and thoughtfulness. We’ll cherish the memories of our stay and definitely look forward to coming back!

Comfortable, convenient apartment for a couple who prefers to eat out.

Great location. Wonderful and generous outdoor deck. Small but comfortable rooms for two people (couple). Industrial-strength teapot 😉.

What could be improved: Kitchen is only adequate for tea and coffee, not great for cooking much more than that. A large toaster oven and old-fashioned 2-burner electric plate stove is available under the sink, we used both and both worked, but it wasn’t convenient.

While the outdoor living deck was great, with large outdoor dining table and comfortable outdoor sofa, the cushions are in terrible condition - so easy to rectify.

Wonderful

What could be improved: I cannot say that I did not like this but "5 minutes walk to the beach" is overly optimistic :). It takes 5 minutes to run to the beach or 3 minutes to drive to the beach, but regular walking takes 12-15 minutes. And on the way back (since it is slightly uphill) even 18-20 minutes.

Wonderful

Check in was great, host let me use private parking with a sun guard roof which ia pretty important in Eilat. Quite place, room is comfortable. You have most of the things. I took the apartment with the terrace and it was very nice

What could be improved: Tiny things have to be fixed, like shower handling, flickering bulb
