On Jordan’s Dead Sea shore, Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea is arranged as a village of stone buildings, terraces, gardens and pools descending towards the water. The 345 rooms and suites include main-building accommodation and Ishtar Village rooms, many with balconies, verandahs or sea-facing terraces. Interiors combine pale stone, soft textiles and regional decorative details, keeping the focus on the mineral-rich landscape outside. Nine swimming pools, varied restaurants, event spaces and one of the region’s largest spas shape the resort rhythm, while palm-lined paths and sunset views over the Dead Sea give the property its strongest sense of place.
