A breathtaking experience: sit on the forest-view balcony and soak in the endless greens of the oak woods stretching to Mount Tabor and beyond. Just open your heart and sink into the silence.
Enjoy the blend of raw nature and a boutique guest space designed to a high standard. In summer – gentle breezes, and on cold winter days – underfloor heating beneath real oak parquet.
A spacious, luxurious, and magical room, with attention to every detail
The space
The forest-view balcony is part of a breathtaking landscape – overlooking the lush Beit Keshet forest, Mount Tabor, the beautiful Church of the Transfiguration, and the hills stretching all the way to Nazareth. A truly remarkable and unique experience.
Unlike most Airbnb stays where guests sleep in the host’s home, our guest units are fully private, like boutique cabins, with a high degree of privacy.
All furnishings were newly purchased (bed, mattress, and more), and we take great care to clean thoroughly before every single stay.
This is a special blend of natural simplicity and boutique comfort – designed to a high standard, from real oak parquet flooring to luxurious linens and attention to every detail.
While there's no kitchen, you’ll find a small dining area with a stunning view, perfect for preparing light meals or reheating takeout.
There’s a microwave with built-in grill, Nespresso machine, milk frother, pop-up toaster, mini fridge, salt & pepper, and plenty of dishware: plates, bowls, utensils, storage containers, and more.
A spacious, stainless steel sink for dishwashing is located in the bathroom.
In winter, underfloor heating often runs beneath the oak parquet – warming the entire unit, including the bathroom, on colder days.
The home was designed by acclaimed architect Yonatan Monjack and features expansive Marvin floor-to-ceiling windows (acoustic double glazing) and high-end acoustic doors.
We designed the space as a cozy and inspiring haven – a place to connect, reflect, and find peace.
We’ve left a few surprises in the unit… couples’ cards, books, games, and more.
Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests – we’d love to chat and help however we can.
You’re warmly invited.
Guest access
The house is located in the Beit Keshet Forest, making it easy to head out on foot for a walk or picnic deep in the woods.
It sits right on the “Sovev Beit Keshet” trail – a scenic loop that passes mostly through the forest and is relatively easy to walk.
Beit Keshet is home to a diverse and vibrant community filled with kind-hearted people.
We’ll be happy to introduce you to locals who offer a wide variety of experiences: massages and holistic treatments, home-cooked meals, horseback riding through the forest, workshops, personal or couples card readings, animal totem mapping, and more.
Together, we can help you plan a full day of activities – including recommendations for nearby hikes and attractions.
Other things to note
Our guest units are located in a residential neighborhood within the kibbutz extension.
Each has its own private entrance, making it easy to slip into the landscape and immerse yourself in the powerful experience of being so close to the forest.
You’ll likely feel a great sense of privacy – in most cases, you won’t see anyone – though you may occasionally hear neighbors, other guests, or even us. 😉
~ We kindly ask that you keep quiet while enjoying the balcony, especially before 9:00 AM and after 9:00 PM. ~

Where you’ll be
Galilee, Israel
The expansion neighborhood of Beit Keshet borders between the kibbutz and the Beit Keshet forest, which covers about25,000 dunams, and contains a magnificent remnant of the forest of Alon Hatavor. The forest is a quiet magic gem filled with lovely corners for picnics and hiking trails for pedestrians and cyclists. The house is nestled right in the forest of Beit Keshet, on the horizon you can see the green mountain ranges and Mount Tabor and the Church of Change and even hear the resounding work.
From the house you can go for walks, straight into the forest or in a path that goes around a largely arched house in the forest on a circular and comfortable path for walking and even running. In this season the forest is at its peak, the oaks are blooming and the smell of almonds is strongly carried in the air.

Lives in Beit Keshet, Israel
We are Dana and Eiran, and together with our two young children live in the stone house in the Beit Keshet forest.
We have always entertained with the thought that we will once have a guest house and host people from all over the world, as we loved on our many trips.
It's amazing that fantasies do happen!
Only in the end instead of a simple and modest guesthouse, we opened very high-level boutique accommodation units.
You are warmly welcomed...
