Vert offers 304 rooms across several categories. Standard rooms and deluxe rooms are your baseline, spacious, well-appointed, with views of either the Dead Sea, the Moab Mountains, or the desert. Every room has air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar, safe, and complimentary WiFi. The real standout is the Club Floor (18+ only), which gives you access to an exclusive business lounge with a dairy buffet and drinks bar. If you’re traveling with family, there are family rooms and connecting configurations that make group stays comfortable.

The views across all room types are genuinely gorgeous. Most overlook either the Dead Sea itself or the dramatic desert landscape. This isn’t a hotel where you’re stuck in an interior corridor, you get to wake up to something special.

If spa is why you’re coming to the Dead Sea, Vert is where you should be. The property recently underwent a comprehensive renovation (May–November 2025), and the results are impressive. Over 60 treatment options are available, including Dead Sea mud wraps, mineral-enriched facials, hydrotherapy, and more specialized treatments. The heated indoor pool is filled with actual Dead Sea water, 34.2% salinity, 35+ trace minerals, so you’re soaking in the real thing, not a facsimile.

Beyond the main pool, you have two sulfur pools, a jacuzzi, sauna, and Turkish hammam. The spa philosophy here is straightforward: use what the Dead Sea naturally provides, and let it do its work. If you need more specialized dermatological procedures, the nearby Wolfson Medical Center (about 650 meters away) offers them, and the hotel provides complimentary round-trip transfers.

The Rosemary restaurant is your main dining option, with panoramic Dead Sea views throughout. Breakfast is a comprehensive buffet with international selections. Dinner rotates through international themes, so you get variety without leaving the property. If you’re on the Club Floor or in a suite, you get exclusive access to a business lounge with its own dairy buffet and drinks bar, giving you more intimate dining options.

Lot’s Wife Bar in the lobby serves dairy menu items and beverages if you want something lighter or a drink without the full meal commitment. The dairy focus (rather than meat) is worth noting if you have dietary preferences.

The Dead Sea itself is your primary activity. Float in the mineral-rich water, which keeps you naturally buoyant, it’s genuinely strange and wonderful the first time. The hotel’s private beach access means you don’t fight crowds for sunbed space. Sunbeds, umbrellas, and towels are all complimentary.

If you want to get off the beach, Nahal Ein Bokek (Bokek Springs) is one of the easiest hikes in the region, natural springs, desert landscape, and it’s accessible for most fitness levels. Ein Gedi Reserve, about a 30-minute drive, offers more ambitious hiking, waterfalls, and archaeological sites. The outdoor pool operates seasonally and is heated year-round, so even in cooler months you can enjoy pool time.

Yes, with the important caveat that the Club Floor is adults-only (18+). Standard and deluxe rooms fully welcome families. The Freckles kids’ club operates during holiday periods with structured activities, which is helpful if you need a few hours of peace. Family rooms and connecting room configurations are available for larger groups traveling together.

The beach access and pools are family-friendly, and there’s plenty to keep kids occupied without leaving the property. The nearby hikes and Ein Gedi Reserve also work well for families if you’re willing to venture out for a day trip.

Vert excels for spa enthusiasts, if you’re coming to the Dead Sea for wellness treatments, you’ll find more options here than at most other properties. Couples seeking the privacy of an adults-only space will appreciate the Club Floor. Families needing five-star comfort with kids’ programming will be satisfied.

It’s less suited for travelers seeking all-inclusive meal plans (try Leonardo Club Dead Sea instead) or those wanting an intimate boutique experience (Kayma and Milos resorts are better options). If you’re on a tight budget or prefer a more casual vibe, look elsewhere.
