The number of amazing Israel Bed and Breakfast completely took me by surprise. There are literally hundreds scattered throughout
the country. From my experience, they are truly some of Israel's secret hidden treasures.
In the growing Israel rural tourism market, these establishments are emerging as an affordable quality alternative to mainstream
hotel accommodations. Run by farmers and agricultural entrepreneurs, most Israel B&B's are scattered throughout Northern Israel
and the Galil. In fact, Lisa and I spent the entire month of August 2011 visiting some of our favorites and meeting with the owners.

developed their business. As a result of our experience, we proudly present to you only our top
picks arranged by region:
