First night fantastic location, very lively and great vibe. Easy walking to many restaurants and shops. Very helpful owner who goes over and beyond to make a stay that is comfortable and just right for you. We are in our late sixties so for us the location was a bit too noisy, so the owner took us to his other hostel (Alamer home from home ) for our second night and it was wonderful. A bit further from the beach but still easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. We loved the very friendly and homely vibe in this quiet location.

Only 2 minutes’ walk from the beach of Eilat and several steps from the Mall Hayam shopping centre, Little Prince Hostel-5 Min Walk To The Beach offers air-conditioned rooms located in the very lively tourist area near the night clubs.

The room was fine. Windows to the parking lot, easy to check on car. A little fridge in the room helped keeping our drinks cold. It was good to have shampoo there, we forgot ours. There's common kitchen on the floor with a cooler and coffee/tea, very nice. The roof terrace is above everything. Our noise couldn't bother no soul.

    I can not fault this place, one of the best hostels I stayed in so far. The owners go above and beyond to help and answer any questions you ask. Make an amazing breakfast which is included in the price. The beds are very comfortable in a huge room, that is super clean and air conditioned. You can tell that even the cleaner loves working there, this place just radiates positive vibes. Highly recommended it!

    The stay was exceptional. The host was kind and welcoming showing me the apartment. The space is big and comfortable perfect for families. The furniture was new and modern. Including 2 showers with excellent water pressure and water heater. The security was awesome as it included cctv and 2 entrance doors before the apartment having a safe feel. The price is reasonable and cheap And only 5 min drive away from the beach. Overall I enjoyed my stay

    Frankly, I advise all guests in this wonderful hostel. Very beautiful view, great location, the owner of the hostel and his son Abdullah. They help you with everything, a swim in the boat, and the Wadi Rum tour is the most amazing. The prices are cheap and the beach is beautiful. Thank you I will be back
