Close to the beach. Spacious rooms with a microwave, hot water kettle, and even some milk in the fridge. As in the rest of Israel, no Kleenex box, no moisturizing lotion, but we can live without it!!

Soggy but captivating stay
Our one night stay in near-beach unique mini resort was marred by cold and drenching rain. Fortunately, our room, one of four in a detached cottage, was warm and inviting. Added benefit (?): Internet only in main building, which also features sauna and hot tops. A great sea side escape if the weather cooperates.

Repeat customers.
We have been at Dolphin Village many times and love the location and the low-key atmosphere, The units are starting to show a little age but they are clean, have beautiful landscaping and sitting areas and it is a very short walk to a really fantastic beach. There are shade structures and a path that connects to the main walkway running through Nahariya. What sets Shavei Tzion off from the other beach areas is that there are no high-rises and it makes you feel like you are staying in a pleasant upscale beach town (which you are). If you like the sea and like some quiet to to go along with it it's a nice place to stay. There are plenty of nice restaurants, malls, and movies as well.

Rural location but close to beach
The hotel definitely caters to families with children, which is fine. Unfortunately, the down side is that many of the facilities devoted to children, such as play items in front of individual cottages, were rundown and uninviting. The outside of the hotel could also use a bit of renovation. On the positive side, rooms inside were comfortable and generally well-appointed, including a small kitchenette. Breakfast was also good. Location-wise, the hotel is located within a quiet moshava within walking distance of a nice beach. However, there is not much else around to occupy leisure time. Akko was about a 15-minute drive away, which was our primary destination, and some stores and restaurants were within easier driving distance. But, in general, expect a quiet, but isolated stay at the hotel.

Just OK, WiFi service was poor yo none for the 3 days that i stayed after constantly complaining about it.thr nice girl tried her best and moved me to another room that turned out to be worst, no WiFi at all till the day that I have checked out.if you staying outside the hotel past 10 PM the village is locked behind a gate and the wait can be long ,up to 10 min by the time someon answer your calls. Pretty loud from all guests around your room,and on top of it the management did not bother to notify you about drilling into your outside wall at 7 PM. The cleanliness is superficial, amenities were basic. In overall I think the management needs to change their state of mind when it comes to service if they wish to have a foreign tourists or attract tourists.

Worth the trip
We stayed 5 nights. It was what we wanted. The location is excellent. Room is adequate. There is a small fridge and a microwave. There were dishes and utensils. Shower was good. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. One drawback was the WiFi was not reliable. Breakfast was OK but not the typical Israeli breakfast that so am used to. I would go back.

Nice rooms with breakfast included. A little hard to find and the wifi did not work. The hotel is by a beach but you can't swim there due to the rocks.

One note, the map prompts you to turn north from the main road when the hotel is south of it. Signposts are all in Hebrew so it takes awhile to find.

Always a nice stay
We come here a few times a year and we find it unusually relaxing. I prefer the cottages here as opposed to high-rises that might even be more luxurious. The grounds are nicely landscaped. It's quiet. It's a very short walk to the beach as well as to a trail that connects with the path that runs the length of Naharia. The breakfasts are pretty basic particularly when it's off-season but we always find something to enjoy. There is a beautiful beach nearby as well as many terrific restaurants and even a movie theatre.

Poor return on investment
Small room. Ordered room with jet tub and large bed. Received jet tub after half a day negotiation but 2 twin beds. Breakfast is very basic, all plates are chipped, knives and forks are dirty. Orange juice is about 90% water. No pastries nor pancakes... Very very basic and not too clean. The four stars are in the sky but definitely not in the hotel

Staff could be friendlier and signs could have some English. Everything was only in Hebrew......not the best way to attract international guests. The nearby beach was in rough shape and there was a fee for the "swimming allowed zone".

Nice hotel close to the beach
This was an AWESOME experience. We spent two nights here as part of a weeklong tour of Israel. We visited Haifa, Akko, and Rosh Hanikra from this hotel. The staff is extremely helpful. We arrived later than the check-in time on a Saturday, but the staff had already prepared for our arrival so all it took was a phone call to get us settled. We also ordered two rooms because we were a large party - the rooms were awesomely arranged. The breakfast was fabulous.

Spacious and quiet, but not easy to find
The hotel is in a quiet location not far from the sea (maybe 200m) and 10-15 minutes drive to Acco. We found it a problem to find a hotel in the residential area it is in - no signs in English and the location is showed wrong in Google Maps. To get to the hotel one basically has to enter this township, drive on the main road until it reaches the sea, then turn right and after 100m the hotel's reception will be on your left. Rooms are situated in separate cottages (2-4 in each cottage). Breakfast was among the best on our trip to Israel, e.g. good warm bread.

Great Hotel. Very clean and comfortable
The hotel, and particularly the room were very nice. In fact, I was deeply impressed with the room. The only issue I had was the location as Hotels.com. There is only one main road coming in from the highway, and Hotels.com shows the hotel location as south of that main road. However, the hotel is to the north (a right turn) off the main road.

Super Aufenthalt direkt am Meer
Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Großzügiges Zimmer in einem Zweierbungalow, sehr sauber und komfortables Bett. Highlight ist der Zugang zum kleinen Sandstrand, der auch gut zum Schwimmen geeignet ist. Direkt vom Hotel aus gibt es einen wunderschönen Spazierweg durch die Dünen. Uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen, allenfalls beim Frühstück noch etwas Luft nach oben.
