Ashkelon Vacations — beachfront and marina seasonal rentals

Ashkelon is a booming seaside destination, located 50 km south of Tel Aviv and 15 km north of Gaza. The city offers 12 km of beaches, a modern marina, exceptional archaeological parks (Ashkelon National Park with its ancient ruins), and vacation rental rates among the most accessible on the Israeli coast. Ashkelon mainly attracts French and Israeli clientele seeking a quality-price seaside stay.

The seasonal rental offer has developed significantly since 2015, particularly in the Afridar (villas and high-end apartments), Marina (new sea view) and Barnea (family-oriented) neighborhoods. Rates are 20 to 30% lower than Ashdod, making it a preferred choice for long stays (two weeks and more) and large families.
