What is considered a villa in Eilat?
A villa in Eilat is an entire house rented to a single group, usually with a yard and a pool, not a unit in a shared building like a vacation apartment. On Livo, all 38 properties that hosts have marked as a villa in Eilat (as of 21.10.2026) are marked with a private pool, a full kitchen, and WiFi, and 29 of them also have a private garden.

The name "villa" doesn't tell the whole story. Check the property page for its location and distance to the beach and city center. Our neighborhood guide explains the difference between Eilat neighborhoods.
How many people can a villa actually accommodate?
The number of guests on the villa card is not necessarily the number of comfortable beds, so check the property page for the number of guests, bedrooms, and amenities in the villa. As of 21.10.2026, 36 out of 38 active villas in Eilat on Livo accommodate 10 guests or more, so the important question is how many bedrooms there are and how the beds are arranged.
- Think by rooms: Check the property page for the number of bedrooms. A group of 10 adults needs more rooms than a family of 10 with children.
- Filter by group size: Searching for villas in Eilat for 10 guests or more only shows villas suitable for that number.
- Large group? We've compiled villas in Eilat for a group of 10 people and villas for 12 people, with cards for active properties.
Is the villa's pool heated?
Not in every villa. As of 21.10.2026, in 14 out of 38 active villas in Eilat on Livo, "heated pool" is marked in the amenities list, and in 4 others, heating is mentioned in the host's text or description (some are "seasonal"). Anyone visiting between November and March who wants to swim in the pool should check for heating in the amenities list and description on the property page.
The marking indicates heating, but not to what temperature or during what hours. Ask the host about this before booking. We've elaborated on this in the guide Villa with a heated pool in Eilat.
Is there a bomb shelter (Mamad) in the villa?
As of 21.10.2026, 25 out of 38 active villas in Eilat on Livo are marked by hosts as having a Mamad. If this is important to you, check the property page before booking and ask the host where the protected space is located relative to the bedrooms.
Is it allowed to host an event or party at a villa in Eilat?
In most villas in Eilat, it is not allowed. As of 21.10.2026, in 32 out of 38 active villas in Eilat on Livo, the host has marked a prohibition on events or parties in the house rules. Every property page has a "House Rules and Policy" section and a standard question in the FAQs: "Can events be held at the property?", with the answer for that specific property.
Even in a villa that allows events, the law applies. According to the Regulations for the Prevention of Nuisances (Noise Prevention), 5753-1992, it is forbidden to play music or shout in a residential area between 23:00 and 07:00 and between 14:00 and 16:00. During celebrations, it is allowed until midnight on the eve of a day of rest and on the departure of a day of rest, and the villa's house rules may be stricter.

- Minimum nights: The property page displays "Min. N nights". As of 21.10.2026, in 30 out of 38 active villas, the basic minimum is 2 nights. For some dates, the host sets a different minimum, and the booking form will not allow a shorter stay and will inform you before payment.
