The Shevet Achim Group, founded in 2010 and operating in the fields of real estate and hospitality, announced the establishment of a hotel and resort chain with a unique concept: Expansion of the Dream Island resort it owns, the establishment of a new luxury resort on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and the establishment of a resort on the promenade facing Ashkelon Beach.
Behind the planning of all the projects stands Izik Levi Architecture and Engineering, which has accompanied the Shevet Achim Group for many years and is responsible for the group’s unique architectural language, combining a connection to nature, a contemporary hospitality experience, and an international planning standard.
The move marks the group’s transformation into a nationwide chain of hotel resorts, combining international vacation experiences, meticulous design, advanced culinary offerings, and smart technology – with each resort telling a different story and offering a unique vacation and hospitality experience.
Expansion of Dream Island Resort
Dream Island Resort, unique in Israel in its experience of abundance and hospitality, is currently undergoing a particularly significant and luxurious expansion. As part of the expansion, approximately 50 new suites will be added, spread out in the style of the Maldives islands within a large lake, with complete privacy for each suite.
The new complex will include: Luxurious suites with a bedroom, living room, kitchenette, shower and toilet, a private pool and jacuzzi in every suite, two presidential suites measuring approximately 80 sq m, a giant central pool and a large bar at its center. Luxurious hotel-like capsules, some of which are surrounded by water complexes.
Alongside the design, the venue will offer exceptional culinary experiences, new restaurants, and hospitality in the heart of a pastoral and quiet forest.
A New Resort on the Sea of Galilee – In the Migdal Area
In March 2027, the group’s new concept resort is expected to open on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, adjacent to the community of Migdal. The project, which is already under construction, will offer a young, vibrant and stylish vacation experience: A beachfront hotel with 93 rooms, approximately 60 of which are rooms over the water in a warm and unique design.
The hotel will include a rooftop with weekly parties and events, a spa complex, sunken seating areas in the water, two floors of restaurants, and a central bar in the heart of the pool with performances and parties inspired by the Greek island of Mykonos.
Ashkelon Beach Resort – “Reef”
The group’s next flagship project will be established facing the sea on the Ashkelon promenade and will also open in March 2027. This is a luxury, iconic and innovative resort: 98 rooms, all facing the sea in a unique and modern design inspired by raw materials from the sea – wood and stone. The hotel will offer smart rooms controlled via a dedicated phone application (lighting, air conditioning, electricity and room services), spread over approximately 6,000 sq m, all facing the sea alongside approximately 14,000 sq m of public areas.
For the first time in Israel, the country’s largest spa complex will be built with approximately 30 treatment rooms, a hammam, saunas, an indoor pool, salt rooms, a pressure room, ice baths, and a VIP complex. A gym, padel courts, a rooftop overlooking the sea, and a Pilates studio. In addition, the hotel will offer a floor featuring a restaurant, pool, and bar overlooking the sea.
The culinary concept is also going to be different. Several different concept restaurants are expected to open in the hotel, so that guests will be able to choose between them and dine each meal at a different restaurant (Asian, Italian, and more).
According to Yehuda Yifrach, one of the owners of the Shevet Achim Group: “The transition to a resort chain is a natural step in the group’s development. We are bringing to the hospitality world in Israel international hospitality experiences, innovation, design, and a high standard – with a unique identity and story for each complex. This move is an expression of our growth strategy and our belief in the potential of the tourism and leisure market in Israel”.
