Located steps away from the Old City, this spacious apartment is the ideal bolthole for exploring Tel Aviv. It's simple and contemporary, with everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a good-sized kitchen, a balcony, and a huge corner sofa, perfect for flopping yourself onto after a long day of seeing the sights. You'll particularly love mornings here, when the sunlight beams through the super tall patio doors, lighting up the walls all the way up to the high ceiling. Step out onto your balcony with a fresh coffee to soak up the morning sun, before heading out to explore. You're surrounded by souks, winding cobbled streets, art galleries, craft shops, historical sites, and more. And that's just the Old City. After a morning of walking and soaking it all in, cool off on the golden sand beach – you're around a ten-minute walk away. When it's time for dinner, your kitchen is well-equipped to whip up meals to be enjoyed around the dining table. We love how the warm-toned light fixture hangs over the table, setting the mood while you eat, drink, and play cards. Or, you could head out for dinner – the area is teeming with eateries, or... you can go further afield to Florentin, which is known for its laid-back, bohemian vibe and great restaurants.

Local guide
About Old Jaffa
Old Jaffa is not like the rest of Tel-Aviv - and you feel it immediately. Old and new, ancient and bohemian collide to create a vibrant neighbourhood where art galleries, design boutiques, and restaurants lie side-by-side to archaeological excavation sites. Old Jaffa is a maze of Ottoman sandstone homes along narrow, winding alleyways with beautiful Mediterranean-blue doors and shutters that make it feel like you're worlds apart from modern Tel-Aviv...
