Even though Equilibrium is on the garden level, it feels like it could be a loft in Brooklyn. The host, Gil, is an architect, and he designed the place himself, from what used to be a garage. It still has a very industrial feel to it – if you’re after kitsch cosiness, you won’t find it here – and we love the unusual touches that come with that (the kitchen swing is a particular highlight). There aren’t any doors to the bedrooms, which won’t be for everyone, but we think that adds to the character, as does the plant-filled terrace.

Home truths

    Gil can sort out a parking space, but you'll have to ask him beforehand

    Neither of the bedrooms have doors, just curtains

    There's a fair amount of Gil's belongings around the place – it's by no means crowded, but just worth being aware

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...
