Succos is the perfect time for families and friends to spend quality time and travel together. Many people find hotels or Airbnbs at vacation destinations like Florida. But for many, the prices of hotels and Airbnbs are daunting, and the idea of kashering a kitchen with only one sink can seem like too much of a hassle, and the mere thought of schlepping one’s own pots and pans and scrambling for last-minute ingredients takes away all the allure of vacationing.
“But vacations shouldn’t be challenging,” says Koby, vacation rental manager of Kosher Homes. This Succos, Kosher Homes has set up vacation homes customized for frum families traveling to South Florida. Kosher Homes’ luxurious vacation homes include kosher kitchens and appliances, private pools, and best of all, they are all walking distance to a shul or Chabad House. They also have food options to provide guests with delicious high-end gourmet Yom Tov meals.
Now, there’s no need to pay for individual rooms per night; get your own house with enough rooms for all of the kids, multiple bathrooms, and a private pool. Each of Kosher Homes’ spacious homes include two sinks and separate sets of kosher dishes.
In fact, all your needs, including Shabbos candles, a hot water urn, a table cloth, and even a sukkah, will be taken care of for you. “We want to service kosher clientele,” Koby says, “and give them a five-star experience.”
Chol Hamoed will be a breeze, as Kosher Homes operates in South Florida in Cooper City, Dania Beach, and Hollywood, where there are plenty of kosher restaurants and supermarkets. Cooper City in Broward County, FL houses a blossoming Jewish community with kosher grocery stores brimming with heimishe foods and kosher restaurants within a short driving distance. With two minyanim, daily shiurim, it is also the perfect vacation spot for a Jewish family. Brooke Hecht was nervous when she arrived at her Kosher Home Airbnb. She arrived at five AM with her two small children in tow. It wasn’t long before she realized that she was in good hands.
“Kosher Homes came to the rescue,” she says. “There were brand new pots and pans and everything was kosher. Every time I needed something, someone came right away to help.” When Brooke needed an appliance fixed one hour before Shabbos, someone was there immediately.
Israel, an investor and owner of Kosher Homes, knows that people are always looking to go away. “Last winter I drove around Cooper City, Dania Beach, and Hollywood. I saw at least twenty-five restaurants with a good hechsher, and so many heimishe yidden. Rabbi Pinny Andrusier showed me around his hotel and campus. It was beautiful. I found a minyan and then another minyan. I walked into (kosher supermarkets) KC, The Grove, and Aroma, and I felt like I was at Goldberg’s Grocery or Gourmet Glatt. That’s how heimish it was. And there are four or five groceries just like that. We got some investors together, and here we are, less than a year later.”
“I see a lot of people migrating from New York and LA,” says David Levinson, a broker at MDL Realty Group. “They are looking for a better life, and finding it in Cooper City.” He cites the nearby TAG yeshiva, the hotel, and two beautiful mikvaos. “You can even rent out the hotel and have all your family members come for reunions, weddings, and bar mitzvahs.”
