Why guests choose Jaffa

Jaffa offers what few places can: old stone, arches, views of the sea and the port, and restaurants and markets on foot. Visitors from abroad and Israeli couples look for a home with character rather than another hotel room. Being next to Tel Aviv, demand follows the city: strong summers, calmer winters.

Older buildings

Many Jaffa homes are in older buildings. Before we start, we check the home, the air conditioning, the electrics and the building rules with you, so the first guest finds it ready.

How to start

  1. 1Estimate. Two taps here, then an exact estimate for your address on WhatsApp within 24 hours.
  2. 2Visit and signing. We meet at the home and sign a simple month-to-month agreement. You give us your ID, proof of ownership, bank details and the keys. About 20 minutes, that's it.
  3. 3Photos and listings. A professional photographer at our cost. We publish the listings in our own Airbnb and Booking.com accounts, plus Vrbo for large homes and villas, in Hebrew, English and French. You don't open any account.
  4. 4Live. In about 10 days the home is open for bookings. Calendars stay in sync, so a booking on one channel blocks the others, and you see every booking in the owner area.

Local rules worth knowing

General information, not legal or tax advice. Check your own case with an accountant or lawyer.

  • Arnona: Jaffa is part of Tel Aviv-Yafo, whose 2026 arnona order has no explicit short-term rental clause that we could find. Ask in writing.
  • Older buildings often have registered bylaws and an active committee. We read them and talk to the committee first.
