Leonardo DiCaprio Faces Criticism for Tel Aviv Luxury Hotel Investment

Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio is at the centre of a global debate after securing final approval to co-finance a luxury hotel in Tel Aviv, Israel. DiCaprio holds a 10% stake in the eco-certified Herzliya Marina Hotel—a project spanning 51,000 square meters, with 14 floors, 365 rooms, a marina, and premium amenities.

Initially announced in 2018, the development aims to stand out as one of Israel’s most sustainable hospitality projects, aligning with DiCaprio’s long-standing commitment to environmental advocacy. Construction had been delayed as the scope was expanded from 180 suites in six-story buildings to a much larger, high-profile complex.

However, the investment has provoked intense backlash on social media and among human rights advocates, who accuse DiCaprio of “greenwashing” and profiting from business ties with Israel at a time of heightened scrutiny due to the conflict in Gaza. With more than 60,000 Palestinians reportedly killed and nearly two million displaced since the escalation began, critics argue that the timing and ethical implications of the project overshadow its sustainability claims.

Numerous activists and online commentators have pointed out the dissonance between DiCaprio’s image as a humanitarian and climate leader and his decision to invest in an Israeli development during a widely condemned military occupation in Gaza. Calls for boycotts and intensified demands for accountability have emerged, but DiCaprio has yet to make a public statement addressing the controversy.
