Iris Yerucham Hotel Awarded Four-Star Status

Mazel tov to Israel’s Desert Iris Hotel in Miami’s partner city of Yerucham, which was recently awarded 4-star status by the Israel Ministry of Tourism! With the Miami-Yerucham partnership's plan to help the Negev city become a tourist destination, along with Federation support, a one-story office complex was remodeled to create an all-suite, family-friendly hotel. Since its opening in 2014, the property has enabled tourists to enjoy more time exploring the sights and attractions of the central Negev region. As a social venture project, the hotel will help support educational programming in Yerucham. To learn more about Miami’s partnership with Yerucham, click here.
