מקום מומלץ למשפחות
Pros:

המקום נקי, נעים לשהייה, המיטות היו ממש נוחות. מזגן מצויין, שמיכות מפנקות. מרחק הליכה קצר מהבריכה, הילדים נהנו מאד, דשא, שבילים של קיבוץ, כיף. ג'קי מקסימה, מאירת פנים.

Cons:

כלום, הכל היה מצויין.

Thoroughly enjoyed it and fully up to expectations
Pros:

Lovely location and very friendly staff. This was a good experience but be aware that you need to bring food which you could easily cook as there was only a hot plate and microwave.

Cons:

Please note the swimming pool is closed most of the year

Superb
Pros:

Nice grocery store, nice walk around the perimeter. Close to the Gaza envelope and all the memorials to the Hamas massacre of October 7. Not far from Sderot; a town awakening after being almost deserted for iover a year.

Cons:

No breakfast even though the site said there was.
