I'm trying to organize a Shabbos getaway for my entire family in honor of my parents' anniversary (6 couples, plus close to 30 kids). We want something somewhere not too far from Yerushalayim (meaning not up North). We were thinking of something like Bait Chilkiya, Komemuyot, Yesodot, Bait Meir - or any other moshav. I have NO idea where to start. Does anyone have any information, recommendations, phone numbers etc.?

Tzafariya (near the airport/ Kfar Chabad) has a dorm/ guest house and meals (don't know what hechsher, but chareidim take it - maybe they bring their own catering), also there is somewhere else in the Ashdod area where people make simchas - I don't remember.

Kfar Haroe isn't very far north and has facilities - also not sure what hechsher.

We're planning on bringing our own food, so I don't need anything like these places. They're probably a lot more expensive.

Yavniel? I was there for a Shabbos with DH and brought food, etc. There are many ppl with tzimmers - and groups of tzimmers - there. Also, in Meron there are quite a few options like this, and if you go offf season, it's nice and private'ish.
