Beit Bracha Guesthouse

Beit Bracha Guesthouse and Prayer Centre

Beit Bracha is a bed and breakfast, with en-suite accommodation for up to 30 people and is ideally suited for larger group bookings, and tour groups (whether from our own Shoresh Tours, or other tour groups). Beit Bracha is just 8 kilometres north of Tiberias with a sweeping view across the Sea of Galilee (Kinneret) from the village of Migdal (meaning Watchtower in Hebrew). Mornings begin with the rising sun over the Golan, and night skies reveal the sparkling lights of Tiberias to the South and the hilltop city of Safed / Zefat to the North.

We also have a wonderful Bedouin prayer tent in our carefully manicured gardens, which can be reserved for group and / or personal prayer in the shadow of our old olive trees from which we still harvest and press our own olive oil.

All our guest rooms open onto a central hall that serves as the meeting point for guests from around the globe.  It is here that conversations begin and friendships and connections are often birthed and continue at the breakfast table where guests are welcomed with prayer and a breakfast buffet freshly prepared each morning by our staff of volunteers, and designed by our resident kitchen manager and dessert chef, Lesley. Dinners are offered most Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Our cook, Iman, has been with us for 9 years and continually delights our guests with her original expressions of Middle-Eastern cuisine.  

Comfortable accommodation includes 12 rooms – 6 on either side of a light-filled, airy lounge area. The lounge features a CMJ Heritage Centre display testifying to the Gentile contribution to the development of the Galilee and restoration of Israel.

A lending library and comfortable seating invite you to step back in time as you enjoy history and photographs from the CMJ archives telling stories of the Galilee from 1870 until 1930. A self-service water, tea and coffee bar in the hall offers you complimentary drinks throughout your stay. The hall opens onto a covered terrace facing the Sea of Galilee, with views of Tiberias toward the south, the Golan Heights due east, and the ancient town of Safed (Tzefat) to the North. The terrace extends to an expansive deck featuring a pergola, fountain with Koi pond, and swing, all framed by lush flowers and foliage.

From here you enter the main house where you’ll join our staff and other guests for breakfast at 8 am Sunday-Friday, or amble in at your leisure on Saturday from 8:30-9:30 am. Pre-booked evening meals are available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights at 6 pm (October-April) and 6:30 pm (May-September).

Our Guest House features a lower level multi-purpose room, and is available to rent for groups desiring conference space or a place to relax. Amenities include a video projector and screen, ping pong table, and board games.

All guests are welcome to join our staff after breakfast for prayer and Bible study. Our prayer is that all who come will encounter the person and presence of Jesus the Messiah, who continues to transform lives, here in the Galilee where it all began.
