Great Apartment in a Fantastic Location
Brilliant apartment in a perfect location. Literally 100 meters from the slopes but without the noise or hassle of the main street. There's a lift directly outside the door so its super easy to get around. Tristan is quick to reply with any questions and very supportive. It was a pleasure to stay there. I've been to other apartments at the bottom of the hill and can say for sure that the this location -- nearly in the middle between the chair/button lifts and the gondola -- is simply the best.

Lovely property very well located.
We stayed here over Christmas 2016,we had a wonderful time plenty of snow. The apartment was in a great location virtually on the main street with lovely views. Its modern and well equipped and was kept regularly cleaned. Spacious and comfortable for a Bulgarian built apartment. Its on the fourth floor with a lift right out side the apartment door.We would recommend both the apartment and the owner (who is based in Britain) and is very nice. A quick note the deposit on arrival is £200 or 400ish lev refundable straight away on departure no problem. We recommend you pay this in pounds as get it back in pounds as its costs you a fair bit to get any spare levs you don't use changed back into pounds.

Why they chose this property

I bought the apartment in 2013, after enjoying ski holidays in Borovets since 2010.

I have enjoyed the beautiful scenery at Borovets and found that the cost of learning and enjoying skiing is very reasonable here. I was also pleasantly surprised at the high quality of the food (and cheap). It seems to be a fusion of Greek and Turkish dishes.

Situated within a National Park there are also great touring and hiking opportunities outside of the ski season. Samokov is an interesting small town 9 km away with good shops cafes and activities for all the family.

What makes this property unique

Firstly I liked the design of apartment block, it has an alpine style, not just on the outside but also within. I believe that it fits beautifully into the environment.

The panoramic views of the Rila mountains from the windows and balconies are a delight to wake up to and are constantly changing throughout the day. It is an enjoyable place to relax and unwind and the mountain air is renouned for being very pure.

In the morning I like the way that the mist and the light is constantly changing on the mountain trees. In the afternoon and evening the balcony is a warm place to watch the sun setting.

Inside the apartment the triangular windows and the angles of the cielings give the apartment real character and atmosphere.

For comfort the apartment has the latest kitchen and bathroom appliances and the gas central heating always keeping it warm and cosy.
