** Guests from Israel: 17% VAT is added by Booking to your booking fee. Marvin's Place is a small and cozy guesthouse designed to provide couples with the highest quality accommodations in a relaxed atmosphere. We've paid particular attention to comfort, cleanliness, and on a fully equipped kitchen. As you walk up the driveway, you'll follow a path leading to the back of house where you'll discover a beautiful wooden deck overlooking the desert, and private entrance to the guesthouse. From the deck you'll enjoy captivating views of the desert and on clear days can see the Dead Sea. On occasion, you'll find a herd of camels grazing below in the valley. Guests have private use of an enclosed, heated gazebo with dining table, as well as a swing, small table, and charcoal grill (just bring your own food and charcoal). When you enter the guesthouse, you'll walk into a small bedroom with a luxurious foam memory double bed. The room is equipped with a 43-inch TV with complementary local channels, Netflix, and YouTube. A small door (50 cm / 20 inch wide) leads to the bathroom where you'll find a walk-in shower, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, hair dryer, and of course toilet paper… An adjacent hallway leads to a kitchen, which is fully equipped with everything you'd need for your own cooking (fridge with freezer, gas stovetop, microwave, Espresso coffee machine with complementary capsules, milk foam maker, water kettle, complementary water bottle and milk, cooking oil, spices, and all kitchenware).

The guesthouse is located on a quiet street, about 50 meters from a cul-de-sac (dead end) that meets the desert. Summer days are hot, but evenings are very comfortable with extremely low humidity and a cool desert breeze. Winter days can be rainy and nights are cold. There are many places from which spectacular views of the desert can be seen.
