Affordable Passover Escapes are an excellent option for those who want to avoid the heavy cooking and cleaning involved in preparing for Pesach at home. These programs offer everything you need for your Seder, all meals (including Shabbat), and often a Daf Yomi Shiur as well. They also provide all the hotel amenities such as pools, spas, kids clubs and a variety of entertainment and activities.

When choosing a program you will have to consider many factors. One is location. Some people like to choose a destination that is close enough to be able to visit family during the week after Pesach. Others may choose a destination that is rich in Jewish history and culture.

Choosing Your Passover Adventure: Finding the Perfect Program for a Meaningful Celebration

Another consideration is cost. Some programs are much more expensive than others. Some of the more luxurious ones even feature a 24-hour tea room. In most cases the price will include all outings and activities such as horseback/camel riding, a boat cruise or an island excursion.

Finally you will have to decide what type of community you are looking for. There are programs for all types of Jewish families – Modern Orthodox, Orthodox, Chabad, etc. You will also want to make sure that you understand what Kashrut standards the hotel is held to. This will be important in determining whether the hotel is appropriate for your needs. You will want to contact the program directly for the kashrut information as some programs have their own in-house kashrut supervision and Rabbis.
