David Dead Sea Resort and Spa

Use the operator’s current accommodation and booking pages for room types, views, facilities, and availability.

The inventory runs from standard rooms of around 28 square meters up to a tiered suite program. Grand Hotels Israel lists Superior and Deluxe rooms, Premium rooms, Family Deluxe suites, Presidential suites, and a separate David’s Suites category on the hotel’s official site.

Every category has a private balcony with views of the Dead Sea and the Moab Mountains. In-room standards include air conditioning, a minibar, a safe, and free Wi-Fi, and the operator lists Family Deluxe suites among the categories, a natural fit for parents traveling with children.

The operator publishes current spa and pool information. Confirm exact pool types, availability, temperatures, salinity, treatments, access rules, and seasonal operation directly before booking.

The resort operates three kosher-certified venues. Bazaar, the main restaurant, serves the breakfast buffet and buffet-style dinners with international and Israeli dishes. Ein Midbar offers Italian dairy cuisine, coffee, and pastries with Dead Sea views (the operator notes advance registration for dinner), and Splash is the seasonal poolside grill.

Rates typically include the Israeli breakfast buffet, and half-board packages are common in Ein Bokek. For variety beyond the hotel, the Dead Sea Mall food court and Ein Bokek’s restaurant scene are within walking distance.

Confirm the current beach-access route, shuttle schedule, facilities, and lifeguard arrangements directly with the hotel before travel.

This is Ein Bokek’s principal family and group resort. The Davidland Kids’ Club runs games and activities for children up to age 12, per the Grand Hotels Israel facilities list, and the games room, children’s pool, and large grounds absorb energetic kids better than any compact hotel can.

Grand Hotels Israel, the operator of David Dead Sea Resort and Spa, lists the Davidland Kids’ Club for children up to age 12 alongside tennis and squash courts, outdoor pools, event halls, and a synagogue with a Shabbat elevator, a facilities mix designed for multigenerational family stays.

Couples seeking quiet should weigh the trade-off: a 606-room resort has buffet queues and pool noise in school holidays. Travelers wanting intimacy may prefer options in our guide to Dead Sea hotels for couples, such as Kayma by Isrotel Exclusive.

Room counts per DeadSea.com’s guide to Dead Sea 5-star hotels in Israel.

The drive to the resort takes about 1.5 to 2 hours from Jerusalem and roughly 2 hours from Tel Aviv. Free on-site parking is available, and the hotel lists a fee-based EV charging station.

Masada National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001, sits approximately 12 kilometers from Ein Bokek according to the Israel Nature and Parks Authority. Plan it with our Masada National Park guide, allow a half day for Ein Gedi Nature Reserve about 30 minutes north, and check opening hours on the official parks site before visiting.

David Dead Sea Resort and Spa wins on scale: the biggest room count on the Israeli shore, the broadest sports and kids’ facilities, and a spa that brings the Dead Sea indoors. Accept the short beach shuttle and holiday buzz, and its 606 room scale delivers more resort infrastructure per night than the strip’s smaller properties.
