It would be remiss to talk about this home and not mention the roof terrace first. With panoramic views of Tel Aviv, an inviting hot tub and a dining table for moonlight suppers, there’s nowhere else we’d rather spend Israel’s balmy summer evenings.

You’ll find a kitchen fully equipped for putting together mezze platters and minimalist bedrooms that are a pleasure to retreat to after an afternoon spent weaving through bustling souks. Your Old Jaffa neighbourhood is hip, artsy and packed with history.
