Dead Sea Movenpick Resort

Set among lush gardens on the northern shores of the Dead Sea, this resort is built of traditional local stone and handcrafted woods, and features tastefully decorated rooms with many amenities. Recreational facilities include the beach (a float in the salty sea is a must, but wear water shoes as the bottom is stony), an infinity swimming pool (among others), and a luxurious spa that's all about pampering the senses. Tip: book your spa treatments prior to arrival—it would be a shame to get there and find they were all booked up!
