"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Who hasn't heard this annoying question in their childhood. Personally, I was always inclined to be a fireman, a policeman, and a spy, but the adults weren't satisfied with that: "You have to choose!" They pressed, and that was usually the point when I chose to beat my sister. Years later I arrived at Elisheva Estate in Moshav Emka and discovered someone who decided not to choose. Is it a boutique hotel? Is it a villa? Is it a B&B? It's all together...

"Where is this valley anyway" I wonder, when it turns out that it is not deep. The answer: in the Western Galilee - one meter from the sea and two meters from the sea. I follow the explanations of Oren, the owner of the pleasant and serviceable place, and arrive at a walled compound at the edge of the moshav. The fields begin right where the compound ends and the view includes the Galilee mountains, and the Yachiam citadel on the horizon.

I go through a gate and find myself in a wide area in front of a huge building. To my left is a huge covered 'deck' with a long knight's table and a fully equipped kitchen, in front of a large swimming pool - the partition between me and the building. I pass over it on a beautiful wooden bridge. The imagination throws to ancient castles surrounded by water (with a small difference - there are no crocodiles here...) and on the other side a kind of castle is really waiting.

There are 8 suites in the impressive building, and they are divided over 3 floors (there is no elevator). The 2 upper suites are the most luxurious - with a large space, a wooden floor, a jacuzzi and a huge balcony (shared by both suites) overlooking the view. One floor down - on the entrance level, there are 4 more suites, spacious and pleasant. The 4 can become 2 if you open a door that connects all two suites and you get a large apartment (suitable for two pairs of friends). Here, too, there is a large common balcony with a view.

On the lower floor you will find 2 more suites, which enjoy private parking spaces, one of which is adapted for guests with special needs. The (shared) balcony overlooks the fields that really beg you to go for a romantic walk or bike ride (familiar bike routes pass here). On this floor there is also a sweet common complex, which includes a huge spa jacuzzi and sauna (indoors), and next to them a beautiful patio balcony that turns into a small cafe in the summer with a screen for watching movies.

"Couples of friends celebrate here" says Oren, and I think that single couples will also make a life here, because with such a list of advantages, it really doesn't matter if you call it a boutique hotel or a B&B, everyone will find something that suits them.

I say goodbye to Oren and remember again that boy who doesn't know what to choose when he grows up. To tell the truth - even today I still haven't completely decided, but now I know that both and and...
