Description
David Dead Sea Resort & Spa, built in 1999 and renovated in 2012, is a large 17-story hotel featuring 577 rooms ranging from Standard to Premium Double Suites. Located on the shores of the Dead Sea, it offers guests access to both an outdoor pool and a heated indoor pool filled with Dead Sea water. The resort includes two restaurants, a bar, and a spa and wellness center with facilities such as a sauna, Turkish bath, jacuzzi, and massage services. Families will find a kids’ club, open children’s pool, and childcare services (paid). The hotel also has sports facilities including tennis and squash courts, basketball, mini-football field, and a fitness center. Despite its impressive size and extensive amenities, the hotel faces mixed reviews regarding maintenance and guest behavior, but many praise the friendly staff and the unique location next to the Dead Sea.
Location
The hotel is situated in Ein Bokek, approximately 99 km from Ben Gurion International Airport. It lies on the second line from the Dead Sea shore, with a private sandy beach about 370 meters away, accessible by a short shuttle or a 5-7 minute walk along a promenade and crossing a road. Nearby, guests can find the Taj Mahal Bar and Restaurant 299 meters from the hotel, rated 8/10. The hotel grounds cover about 5,400 square meters, offering views of the Dead Sea and surrounding tropical vegetation.
Tips
- Expect a short walk or shuttle ride to the beach since the hotel is on the second shoreline.
- Bring your own sun protection as the beach lacks umbrellas and loungers.
- For a quieter experience, consider requesting a room with a pool or Dead Sea view and check the latest maintenance status on arrival.

Staying at the David Dead Sea Hotel has been one of the most amazing hotel experiences I’ve ever had.
Traveling all the way from New York, everything about this stay has been an absolute breeze. From the moment you arrive, the service, hospitality, food, and rooms are all handled at the highest level. The attention to detail and genuine care from the staff truly make you feel welcome and relaxed.
I especially want to recognize Iris, Angelina, Shirez, Orel, Shachan, and Marc at the front desk—each one of them went above and beyond and made the experience feel personal and effortless. Honestly, everywhere you turn, the people here are just amazing.
If you’re looking to disconnect, recharge, and truly enjoy your stay at the Dead Sea, I can’t recommend this hotel enough. This is hospitality done right.

We spent a weekend night at the hotel with two kids.
The service and staff were poor and definitely not fitting an hotel at that grade and pricing.
The rooms were ok, but the facilities need to be updated and more thoughtful care for things like proper number of towels, toiletries and blankets.
We won’t be back.

Large resort-style hotel with great facilities but poor guest behaviour
Place
The hotel is huge, with many rooms, activities, restaurants, and spaces to keep guests entertained. The lobby is impressive and spacious, headline-worthy in itself, with shops, bars, and restaurants spread throughout.
Room
The room was very large and offered a great view. Plenty of space to move around, with comfortable beds. Air conditioning worked well, as did the TV and fridge. The bathroom was also spacious, with both a bathtub and a shower. Everything functioned properly.
Food
The restaurant is massive, and the buffet is extensive, with a wide variety of dishes. Meat was cooked on the spot, which ensured quality but also meant long queues. The hotel was almost fully booked and hosted many families. Unfortunately, guest behaviour during the buffet was a major downside. Many people ignored queues and took excessive amounts of food, especially in the meat and children’s sections. Food waste was extreme, with multiple tables leaving large amounts untouched and thrown away. This is something the hotel should manage more strictly.
Entertainment
The musical show was good, with engaging performers who sang and danced well. Sadly, guest behaviour again affected the experience. Children ran freely without supervision, and noise levels were high. One child repeatedly touched the sound system, turning the volume up while parents filmed and laughed. This felt unsafe and uncomfortable, and staff had little control over the situation.
Staff
Reception staff were helpful. We requested a change in bed arrangement, and it was handled fairly quickly.
Facilities
A strong highlight is the private Dead Sea beach, located about a five-minute walk from the hotel. Facilities there were complete, with sunbeds, showers, and lifeguards available.
Overall
The hotel offers ok infrastructure, spacious rooms, and good facilities. However, the lack of control over guest behaviour significantly affects the experience. With better management in shared areas, this could be a much more enjoyable stay. Also, general improvement to the overall hotel facility.

Once upon a time this hotel was nice however today’s this is no longer the case
The rooms are a bit worn down: the toilet got stuck, the mirrors are chipped, the A/C didn’t work well, the sofa bed was the worst - it made so much noise that every time our daughter turned around everyone woke up and the same happened in our second room
For everyone who’s not familiar, staying on a Saturday means that the food is only partially available.
If you’re eating in the dining room, the service is far from being satisfactory - the food isn’t amazing either
Should you want to order a cocktail at the hotel bar be ready to part ways with 50 NIS per cocktail… and don’t expect an amazing one either
The SPA with the heated mineral pool is quite good although they’ve closed the sulphur pools
There were plenty of other maintenance issues with the facilities in this aging hotel - it’s a shame that the hotel didn’t invest enough in staying up to date
What makes it even worst are the prices, I can’t understand the justification to charge what they’re charging - totally not worth it

I don’t understand all the negative reviews. This hotel was amazing. The rooms are modern, clean, spacious and with a beautiful view. The design and layout of the hotel itself is gorgeous. The pools are massive, there are great options for kids, and the food at the buffet was delicious. All of the staff were friendly, from the cleaners to the waiters to the concierge. One of the managers, Iris, was exceptionally friendly and accommodating to our family. Also the spa was wonderful- swimming in Dead Sea water indoors was better than I expected. We would definitely come back!

A great hotel with a very beautiful area! A great spa and 2 outdoor pools with regular water and water from the Dead Sea! We got a free room upgrade, which was sooooo nice! A huge THANK YOU to the hotel for this! A beautiful room on the 14th floor with a stunning view of the Dead Sea, and from the balcony a view of the sea and the hotel grounds with a pool! The hotel is beautiful, clean, comfortable. Delicious breakfasts and dinners! Excellent service. This is one of the best hotels on the Dead Sea.

The rooms we were assigned were acceptable, but unfortunately, the hotel appears to lack proper maintenance. Everything seems old and worn, with noticeable scratches. Additionally, the shower tends to flood after each use. On the positive side, the hotel's location offers a 5-7 minute walk to the beach, and there's also a shuttle option available. The dining room served delicious food, and the service was pleasant. We appreciate the spacious Sukkah, though we're uncertain if the overall experience justifies the cost.

Day 1: Waiting in line for about 30 minutes, finally received our room: the room was smelling bad and it was dirty. The food isn’t good and its really cold. The hotel is not child friendly it has no activities for childrens, the hotel is mostly for people over 16 years old. The bathroom is not clean. The rooms are dusty and the balcony is not clean. The pool slide was broken and the lifeguards were on their phones all the time. The swimming pool is very dirty it looks like its only washed on Sundays.
Day 2: The workers are not good, the lunch was really bad and there was no choice of food we had to ask the workers to give us we asked the workers to bring more food they gave us frozen shnitzel, so we went to the reception to tell them that the food was awfull and to give us money back, the owner of the hotel (Yulia) didnt give us anything. The hotel is dirty and it has a lot of cockroaches. The hotel is located 10 minutes from the dead sea.
