Judean Desert · 12 min from the Dead Sea

The desert, with a door
you can close.

Nine units on the edge of the Judean Desert — private cabins with their own yard, air-conditioned glamping tents, and quiet double rooms. No lobby, no check-in queue, and no city close enough to hear.

Not a hotel. Not a campsite.

Midbarta sits in Vered Yericho, in the Jordan Valley, where the Judean Desert drops toward the lowest point on earth. It is family-run: Dekel chooses his guests himself, answers the phone himself, and there is no automated booking engine between you and him.

Every unit faces open desert. In summer there is water — private plunge pools for the cabins and glamping tents, a shared one for the rooms. In winter there are jacuzzis. And at night, once your eyes adjust, the sky opens up in a way it simply does not near a city.

Where you sleep

Three kinds of unit, nine in total. Prices are per couple, per night; each additional guest is ₪150 a night. Thursday and Friday nights count as weekend. From 1 July to 1 September every night is charged at the weekend rate. A private jacuzzi is ₪150 extra, booked in advance.

Everything is close

Vered Yericho is an unusually good base. The Dead Sea is a twelve-minute drive, and most of what people come to this part of the country for is inside half an hour.

Drive times are approximate and based on publicly available information. Midbarta recommends only, and is not responsible for road conditions, access or accessibility at any of these sites. Check before you go.
