Dead Sea
When visiting the lowest point on Earth, make sure you stay at the highest level of luxury. You can do so at one of Leonardo's Hotels on the Israeli side of the Dead Sea, in the resort district of Ein Bokek. This unique natural wonder is a lake in the Jordan Rift Valley. It has extremely high salt levels and is famous as a health destination. The Dead Sea's high mineral content, including magnesium, potassium, and bromide, is believed to have therapeutic properties that can help relieve various ailments such as skin conditions, respiratory problems, and rheumatic diseases. The higher atmospheric pressure at this depth is also said to offer health benefits. Take advantage of these therapeutic properties by indulging in mud baths, mineral-rich spa treatments, and specialized therapies available at local health centres, such as heliotherapy, thalassotherapy, and climatotherapy.
Enjoy hiking, swimming, and sunbathing while taking in the breathtaking natural beauty of the Judean and Negev deserts and the Moab Mountains. The region surrounding the Dead Sea holds a rich history and religious significance, with many biblical and historical sites like the Qumran Caves, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered, and Masada, a palace-fortress constructed by King Herod and a historic site of Jewish resistance against the Romans. Additionally, the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve features a waterfall and hiking trails that offer spectacular views of the countryside. For a more accessible experience, visitors can explore the new boardwalk. It's ideal for walks, jogging, and Segway tours. Wheelchair-accessible beaches ensure inclusivity for all.
Experience all the Dead Sea has to offer from one of Leonardo's four hotels, each providing first-class comfort and hospitality. Leonardo Plaza Dead Sea and Herods Dead Sea both cater to families, offering children's clubs to keep younger guests entertained. Additionally, both hotels boast spas and pools for relaxation and recreation. For business travellers, large conference rooms are available to meet professional needs. Leonardo Club Dead Sea All-Inclusive offers a resort experience with a private beach and water park. It has five halls for business conferences and private events. Floating on the Dead Sea’s waters requires no effort, and the mineral-rich mud nourishes the skin, making sunbathing a safer experience due to the low UV levels in the atmosphere and cleaner air, which is safer to breathe.
