It was our second time staying with Sarah and Yisrael - Probably the best hosts we've come across.
The place isn't the newest, but is clean, extremely well kept, and the room facilities are more than could be asked for (Kitchen, bath tub, showers and balcony). The swimming pool is great and the overall environment, views, vegetation and house pets are very pleasant.
The Shavit family also serves the absolute best breakfast in the country.
Can only be reached by car, plenty of parking available though

The Shavit family run a lovely guest house. Their hospitality and food are amazing. If you want or need a very fancy accommodation, look elsewhere; but if you care for great value and amazing hospitality look nowhere else.

Lovely owner, greeted us with coffee which was great as we were cold and it had been raining so this was very welcome. Dinner was excellent, and we were delighted with the whole experience. Including heated swimming pool and lovely sauna. We definitely recommend staying here. Also loved the lush garden.

The Arber Guest House Shavit is a very well kept oasis in a very small village near Tiberias. The host family is very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast is spectacular (fresh juice), shakshuka, homemade bread and jam. Simply fantastic! The area around the main house feels like a jungle with lemon trees and other beautiful plants surrounding the premises. On top of that, there is a very nice and clean swimming pool to relax.
The Arber Guest House is the perfect hub to go hiking in the Mount Arbel area (National Park). Within 5 min you reach the hiking path (near the ancient synagogue) that leads into the Wadi Hamam (Arbel) to the foot of Mount Arbel. In 1 h the top of Mount Arbel can be reached (part of the NP) from where you descend back to the Guest House (total time 3-3.5 h).
Just opposite of the road (near Kefar Zetim) is another hiking path that leads to the Horns of Hittim, which is also the site of a famous battle - it was here that Saladin defeated the army of the crusaders in 1187 AC (ca. 2.5 h). Nice view over Mount Arbel and the Sea of Galilee. Worth visiting! Details of the hike are described, for example in the "Wanderführer Israel" by Winfried Borlinghaus (Rother Verlag).
Unfortunately not enough time to stay longer and do more hikes in this beautiful area!
