As much view as possible, and from every possible corner
There are places that offer incredible panoramic views, and we come across quite a few of them, especially in the Amirim area, where the location of the houses on the mountainside allows for a view far, far south to the Golan Heights, Lake Kinneret, and west toward Mount Tabor. But this place, "Michelle Suite," offers something else: I didn't find a single corner here where the view wasn't exposed to those staying in the isolated unit: right from the bed (which is raised on a platform), from the jacuzzi, from the bar, from the living room, and even from the bathroom. And we haven't even talked about the amazing "deck" that seems to be suspended in the air and gives the feeling of a cruise ship deck, or about the heated round pool in the center of the deck.
The town's planners built its houses to face the panoramic view, but kept two places where access to the best view would remain open to the general public. These are two wonderful lookouts that allow for an "impossible" view far in every direction from the top of the mountain. "Michelle Suite" was fortunate to be adjacent to one of these lookout complexes, so you get a private lookout - and that says it all.
Access to the only suite in the complex is via a path (there is private parking for guests) that runs through the courtyard adjacent to the suite. When you approach the "deck", your breath stops and a view opens up of one of the most beautiful views you will see in Israel. This "deck" is not huge, but it is cleverly built and allows for a feeling of floating, just like a "deck" hanging from a luxury cruise ship. In its center is a circular heated pool, where you can swim with the view all around.
The privacy here is excellent. You don't feel neighboring complexes or the host's house, which is located a relatively large distance away. The suite is located above the observatory, where quiet, high-quality music events are occasionally held, so if you're lucky, you'll get a close and very romantic soundtrack for your movie.
The building itself is wonderfully organized, and as mentioned, allows for a view of the landscape from every corner. There is a spacious and bright sitting area with a built-in wood fireplace, a large double bed on a wooden platform for the view in the morning, a kitchenette that allows for cooking, a cute bar, and an indoor jacuzzi surrounded by windows that sits right on the view. Cleverly etched glass at the bottom allows for privacy, in case someone in the Golan Heights decides to purchase a telescope, and a huge skylight allows light and the sky to be part of the atmosphere.
The bathroom has a double rain shower head (no shower). The suite is equipped with high-quality amenities, including a smart TV, which includes movie channels such as Netflix and Partner TV. There is also a closet for hanging clothes.
In a building adjacent to the suite there is another bedroom with a double bed, its own toilet and shower. It is suitable for a couple of friends or children.
The suite is built not far from the Amirim Observatory, and there's a good chance you'll enjoy one of the intimate, high-quality musical performances that occasionally take place there on weekends.
Can you stay with a dog?
There is no possibility to make a fire there.
I don't think there is a better location for those looking for privacy, views, a romantic atmosphere in a single suite in a magical complex and community. This combination makes "Michelle Suite" one of the places that is undoubtedly recommended for vacation.

Mor, the host, built everything himself, and fulfilled his dream of hosting after living in Northern Europe for many years. He is a peaceful and smiling type - and one who will make your vacation enjoyable. I really liked Mor's thinking: For example - the bathroom is built in the back of the building and seemingly far from the view. Mor didn't let that bother him and placed a window that brings in the view through the kitchen, and from there through the bar and through the jacuzzi windows... This is just one example of many of the thoughtfulness of the details here, which characterizes him as a host.
