Cheap Vacation Apartments in Eilat: What Sets the Price and How to Pay Less
In short: The price of a vacation apartment in Eilat changes with the season, holidays, day of the week, length of stay, apartment size and how early you book, so there is no single fixed price. To find cheap vacation apartments in Eilat, check midweek dates, book early, choose an apartment that fits your group, and book directly on our site to get an automatic 5% discount.
You are sitting with your phone in the evening, five tabs open, and you notice the same apartment costs something different on every date. That is not a glitch. It is exactly how the Eilat market works.
How much do vacation apartments in Eilat cost?
Anyone who has searched for Eilat vacation apartment prices has already figured out that there is no single table that fits everyone. The price changes every week, and sometimes every day.
So instead of hunting for one number, it helps to understand what moves it. Once you do, you can pick a smart date and pay less for exactly the same holiday.
We deliberately do not list amounts here. Prices change with availability, and the only place to see a real price for your dates is the booking page.
What affects the price of an Eilat vacation apartment
Season and holidays
Eilat is a mild-winter and scorching-summer destination, and demand shifts accordingly. During holidays, school vacations and long weekends, demand peaks and prices go up. If you are flexible about the season, you pay less. Weather by month is covered in our guide to the best time to visit Eilat, and you can also check the weather forecast and averages before you decide.

Midweek vs. weekend
Weekends are the most popular time, and usually the most expensive. A Sunday to Thursday stay tends to be cheaper than Thursday to Saturday. If your work or school schedule allows, shift your trip by a few days.
Length of stay
A longer stay can sometimes mean better terms per night. It also spreads the fixed costs of the trip over more days. Three nights almost always works out better per night than a single night.
When you book
Popular dates go early, and once availability shrinks there are fewer options left. If you book well ahead, you choose from more apartments. If you wait until the last minute you may find a bargain, but it is a gamble.
Apartment size
A studio costs less than a two-bedroom apartment, which makes sense. The question is how much space you actually need, and more on that below.
How to find cheap vacation apartments in Eilat: 7 ways
If you are searching for cheap apartments in Eilat, you do not have to compromise on cleanliness or comfort. You just need to know where to look and when. Here is what actually works:
Check several dates. Move your check-in by a day or two and compare. The difference can be surprising.
Prefer midweek. Sunday to Thursday is usually the money-saving window.
Book early. Especially for holidays and school vacations.
Choose the exact size. A couple does not need two bedrooms. A studio is enough for most couples.
Book directly. Booking at cityeilat.com gets you an automatic 5% discount, with no code and no forms.
Stay a few nights. A longer stay usually works out better per night.
Think about the total cost. Not just the price per night, but also food, parking and transport.
Save: Before you book, compare the exact same dates in two places. A 5% discount on a direct booking looks small, but over a stay of several nights it adds up.
Where to save during the trip itself
The price of the room is only part of the bill. The real difference between an expensive trip and a smart one is in the side expenses.
Kitchenette. The apartments have a fridge, stovetop or hot plate, kettle, microwave and kitchenware. A homemade breakfast and morning coffee save a lot over a few days.
Parking. There is free public parking near the entrance, and the complex on Neviot Street also has free private parking, subject to availability.
Location. The apartments are in the area behind the Club Hotel, a 5 to 10 minute walk from the promenade and the shopping center by the sea. You can skip taxis and walk.
Linens and towels. They are included, so there is no need to bring them or pay separately.
You can save on food too, without giving up the fun. Our guide to cheap restaurants in Eilat has good ideas, and the food and drink page shows what is near the apartments.
Which apartment to choose so you do not overpay
The common mistake is taking a big apartment "just in case". That costs money you will not use. Here is a simple framework:
Couple or solo traveler: a studio with a double bed, kitchenette and air conditioning.
Couple with a small child: an apartment with a bedroom and a living room (one-bedroom apartment). You can add a crib for an extra fee, subject to availability.
Family or group of friends: a two-bedroom apartment. Splitting the price among several people lowers the cost per person.
Note: a sofa bed exists only in some of the apartments. If you need extra sleeping space, check the apartment's page before you book. You can see all the options on the apartments page.
What not to do when searching for a bargain
A low price is not everything. Here are a few things to check so you are not surprised on arrival:
Check what is included: air conditioning, Wi-Fi, linens and towels.
Check the location and the walking distance to the promenade.
Do not book without reading the check-in and check-out terms. With us, check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is until 11:00. Early or late arrival or departure is only subject to availability and for an extra fee.
If you are leaving on Saturday evening, look into the option of a late check-out on Saturday night for an extra fee.
Local tip: After check-out you can leave your luggage in the luggage room on Neviot Street, or in the hallway with a security camera at the Tzofit complex, and keep enjoying the city until your flight or drive. That way you do not need to pay for an extra night just because of the hour.
