Hotel on Hillside in the Heart of a Desert Crater 

This unique and award-winning spa hotel is located on the Mitzpe Ramon cliffs, covering an area of around 13,000 sq.m. The hotel contains 11 guest villas with a veranda or garden, 39 private pools, a dining room, a gourmet restaurant, spa compound, outdoor and covered pool, operational and service areas.

The unique architectural design of the hotel and its position on the hillside facing the crater presented complex engineering and operational challenges in all matters concerning the construction of the buildings, the pools, the public areas and the electromechanical systems. To add to this, the hotel is located in a desert area with limited access involving a unique topographical layout and a climate dictating adaptation of the construction technique and preliminary earthworks to level the ground. Special attention was given to environmental quality, as the hotel is situated within a nature reserve.
