Sukkos Program in Israel – Zvi Lapian Family Sukkos Vacation
Sukkot Program in Israel – Zvi Lapian’s Famous Family Program
Join us for the perfect Sukkot Vacation in Israel with English-speaking family and friends.
The Neve Ilan Hotel is conveniently located in Central Israel within easy reach of all of Israel’s main attractions, but with all the valuable advantages of a calm and pastoral setting. It offers 172 refurbished and spacious rooms on four floors, with extensive gardens and panoramic views of the Jerusalem Hills.
The hotel is located within the peaceful village of Neve Ilan, yet near Route 1 and within easy driving distance of Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Ben Gurion Airport. Set in the Jerusalem Hills, surrounded by beautiful forests, it offers the ideal pastoral location for Chol Hamoed hikes along unspoiled nature trails. Neve Ilan is also conveniently located for quick visits to Bet Shemesh and Modi’in.
The Neve Ilan hotel is configured conveniently for families with many adjoining bedrooms, family suites and garden rooms. It has an amazing Kids’ Club, equipped with a wide range of toys for every age group, including a mini-cinema and the latest X-box computer games. During Sukkot we run a day camp with English- speaking madrichim running children’s activities every day.
The hotel’s spacious Bet Knesset adjoins the gardens and our expansive Sukkah dining rooms. Relax with your family in its many indoor and outdoor spaces, in the lobby, or on the hotel’s awesome terrace overlooking the magical pastoral landscape.
Zvi Lapian’s Yom Tov Programs are renowned for paying attention to every detail, particularly to the religious aspects of each Chag. Davening takes place in a comfortable setting for men and women, and the schedule is designed for the convenience of the guests. Sumptuous Yom Tov meals will be served on Shabbat and Chag (full board is included in our pricing) with breakfast and dinner served every day during Chol Hamoed. All meals will be served in the hotel’s spacious Sukkah.
Our scholar in residence for Sukkot will be Rabbi Professor Daniel Sinclair, with a full program of lectures and evening entertainments that are open to all. We keep the atmosphere relaxed and tolerant – live and let live!
During Chol Hamoed, guests at the Neve Ilan Hotel will be well-placed to enjoy all the attractions that Israel has to offer. Our guests will have access to the heated swimming pool and sauna, with some hours set aside for separate swimming. We will also provide a full program of activities for children, plus daily entertainment for all the family.
We try to accommodate families with special requirements; your hosts Zvi Lapian and Michael Smigel go to great lengths to make sure that every guest feels relaxed and happy.
The kashrut of the program is Rabbanut Mehadrin Mateh Yehuda, with top quality, glatt kosher cuisine and observing Shmita LeChumra. We will do our best to accommodate other special dietary requests – please notify us well in advance.
Reviews
“We have been to other programs and by FAR the Lapians surpass all others. The programming was on a high level, varied, in good taste, and had something for everyone. The yachas was incredible, down to the thought that went into choosing our table companions. And the entertainment? How shall I put it: “Ein li milim!” But the most important indicator, my husband, who doesn’t like ANYTHING, was full of praise for the Lapians and plans to return to them whenever possible.”

Thank you so much for a very enjoyable end of Chag. All the family had a great time, especially the toddlers, who had quality time at the Moadon. Many thanks also for providing us with our own room for the family Minyan – it was much appreciated. We look forward to future programs.
