Aparthotel Banana Beach

The beach is really nice, clean, and well organized. The menu is VERY expensive, though. At sunset they turn the music up so much you can’t sit and hear the person next to you. Not cool.

This was my favorite beach growing up. I used to come three times a week until I was 24, and though I’ve lived in the UK since then, I still visit every year to see my family and friends and, of course, this lovely beach. There’s always sunshine and people in bathing suits. There are restaurants and a lifeguard. I recommend it with all my heart xx

You can sit right on the beach, eat, drink, and relax with chill music while watching Tel Aviv’s stunning sunsets. It’s there all day and late into the night.

The sea view is priceless, and the atmosphere on Tel Aviv’s beaches is unique, but the waitress was so unpleasant. I had to ask for a glass with my beer and for sugar for my wife’s coffee. My French friends even asked if she was angry with us. The restaurant was empty at 11 am on a normal Thursday at the end of October, so there was no crowd or pressure, as you can see in my pictures. A little smile would have helped. My friends said the next restaurant was much more welcoming and that it was a shame I picked this one. It sucks, and I’ll never go back. And the price, 92 NIS for a simple breakfast. That says it all.
