We spent a week staying with Nick, and really enjoyed our time there. We were picked up at the airport and taken to the villa, check in was very pleasant with a drink and nibbles. Each morning we had breakfast cooked for us and we're then driven into Borovets, after skiing we were picked up. Nick gave us recommendations on where to eat out and we were very impressed by the food. Couldn’t fault anything, wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Hope to return in the future

We had an amazing time here, mainly thanks to Nick the owner. He is an amazing gent, very honest, reliable and genuine. He made our stay fantastic. Nick took the children off skiing all day and we met up with him for lunch. He drove us anywhere we wanted to go and nothing was too much of a problem. He booked for us and took us to amazing restaurants at unbelievable prices. Nicks chalet is great, it is very relaxing and you are made to feel welcome. Honestly this guy can not do enough for you and makes your holiday stress free and enjoyable. The rooms in the chalet are clean and comfortable and the family room is amazing if you have kids with its own ensuite. There is also a 2 person jacuzzi and a sauna which Nick puts on for you at your request. They can also arrange massage treatments to come to the chalet which my wife found very relaxing. Overall an amazing ski holiday with excellent hosts, many thanks Nick and family, we will definitely be back.

My family and I have just returned from an amazing stay in this super chalet. We are all pretty much beginners and are so, so pleased that we chose Nick and John to teach us. Letting these two (Bulgarian and English) gentlemen take the strain of our skiing adventure was 100% the key to an awesome holiday. We felt supported and encouraged with humour and kindness, and had their full attention every day. After a warm and comfortable night's sleep we woke and had a delicious breakfast (which was fit for a king!) and a short, comfortable transfer to the slopes at a time to suit us. Nick and John enthusiastically skied with us right up until the last lifts. These two are equally as brilliant with kids as they are with their occasionally nervous mums, and we all progressed fantastically well in our skiing under their instruction. I would completely and without reservation recommend this place and the lovely family that run it. If you want a family ski holiday, minus the stress, and with first class, attentive instructors then this is it.

Αυτή τη φορά σκεφτήκαμε να μείνουμε στο Samokov , ήταν η πρώτη μας φορά που μείναμε στο Chalet. Η τοποθεσία είναι άριστη καθώς συνδύαζει το χιονοδρομικό με την πόλη του Samokov όπου έχεις πιο πολλές επιλογές όσον αφορά αγορές,χαμηλότερες τιμες,φαγητό κλπ. Τεράστιο θετικό είναι ότι η τιμή/νύχτα περιλαμβάνει μεταφορά στο χιονοδρομικό (10 λεπτά απο τα slopes) ,πρωινό,σάουνα και τζακούζι! Θετικό είναι επίσης ότι προσφέρεται κατόπιν συνενόησης μεταφορά, απο το αεροδρόμιο στο chalet. Εμείς πετάξαμε απο το Ελευθέριος Βενιζέλος και ο Nick μας περίμενε και μας μετέφερε στο Chalet. Υπάρχει οικογενειακό κλίμα στην επιχείρηση , ο Nick, ο οποίος είναι και δάσκαλος του σκι, και η σύζυγός του ήταν δίπλα μας σε ότι κι αν χρειαστήκαμε. Μας καθοδήγησε σχετικά με τον καιρό και ήταν πολυ καλός και υπομονετικός με τα παιδιά,όσον αφορά τα μαθήματα σκι. Επίσης μας έδωσε πολύ καλύτερες τιμές όσων αφορά την ενοικίαση του εξοπλισμού συγκριτικά με τις τιμές του χιονοδρομικού ή άλλων καταστημάτων στο Borovets. Το συνιστώ ανεπυφίλακτα σαν top value for money! Θα σας επισκεφτούμε ξανά σύντομα. Ευχαριστούμε πολύ όλη την οικογένεια. Υπέροχη διαμονή και εξυπηρέτηση!

Nick and his family are in more than hospitable and made our entire group of 14 people plus three babies feel at home. His chalet is fantastic with lots of room, and as many have stated before breakfast alone is worth going back for. Pickup and drop off at the airport in Sofia was easy and the meals out in Samakov were very memorable! All arrangements were attended to! Nick was awesome with my wife and daughters on the ski slopes and was ready to teach an old dog like me a few things on the hills as well. Equipment and transport to and from the hills was easy and organized to a tee. I can't say enough good things about our week (we have booked already for 2017), the beer was great too. Cheers to you Nibk and family. See you again soon.

We had the most fantastic time staying at Four Seasons with our wonderful hosts Nick and Mariana. We booked this holiday based on the reviews that we found on line and were looking for something different. Nick collected us from the airport and took us back to chalet where we were welcomed with a cold beer and hot soup! The basement is stocked with all the equipment you will need for skiing, which we hired from Nick. So much easier than trying to do this in town, it was all so relaxing! We booked a family room for us and our two kids. Incredibly spacious and comfortable with ensuite bathroom, immaculately clean too. Nick booked us into a wonderful local restaurant just down the road from the chalet and we had a lovely meal on our first night (excellent value too). The next morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast (as we did each day) cooked to order by Mariana - we all loved the homemade pancakes! Nick was also our ski instructor each day. We were a mixed bag, me fairly competent, but nervous, our 10 year old son who wanted to get from the top to the bottom as fast as possible and our 6 year old daughter complete beginner. Nick is kind, patient and great fun. We have all come on so much in this week with his help. He has also got great knowledge of the mountains and local area so knew where would be best to go. It all just worked perfectly and meant that the whole family enjoyed each day. There is also a jacuzzi and sauna at the chalet which was much needed after a day on the slopes. Thank you so much to the lovely Chakalov family. We can't wait to come back next winter, I'm already looking at flights! Highly recommended and great value. If you stay at Four Seasons you will not be disappointed! The Rasenberg Family, January 2016

We cannot recommend this chalet highly enough. The customer service is first class. Nick is a friendly and practical chap who always had a smile and a joke at the ready. He was relaxed but focussed. His wife Mariana was cheery and helpful. The chalet was very attractive and well laid out. We rented the family room with our 2 sons, age 12 and 9. We were impressed with how spacious the 2 adjoining rooms were. The bathroom was modern and the water was always piping hot. We tried out the Jacuzzi which was fun and very relaxing. We were impressed that the rooms were cleaned each day and dry towels were provided. The food was of a high quality and the honesty bar is such a good idea as it allows you to mix with other guests informally over a drink. We were often very tired in the evening and Nick helped us out by giving us lifts home from the local restaurants. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him. Nick taught 3 of our party and, due to his personal attention, their progress was staggering. Most of all he taught them to have fun skiing! Nick was always happy to share his local knowledge. He is obviously well respected and connected. He was happy to show us the best restaurants and shops to browse and we both bought new ski gear as it was so reasonably priced. We found Borovets to be quite touristy so it was quite refreshing to be in a nearby town where tourists are few and far between. The local restaurants are excellent and amazingly good value. One of them in particular was like a stately home with beautiful furnishings. We ate out for about £20 each night for 4 of us with drinks and desserts. We were incredibly lucky with the snow conditions as there were about 250cm and it practically didn't stop snowing. Overall I would say the best thing about this chalet is the hosts. Nick and Marian obviously want each and every customer to have a special time and we certainly did. My son knew that we were writing this review and said to me "make sure it's good mum". We hope to return next season and are trying to get friends to come with us. Thank you Nick and Mariana for making our stay such good fun and so memorable.

We stayed as a group of 6 adults over new year and had a fantastic holiday. We cannot recommend this place enough! Nick's chalet is lovely - comfortable, clean and cosy. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need. Nick and his family are just brilliant and constantly went above and beyond to make sure we had a great holiday. Everything is just made so easy by Nick who does everything! - Skis, lifts to and from the slopes, restaurant bookings and recommendations, massage bookings etc. - nothing was too much trouble. Two of our group were complete beginners and they had a week full of lessons with Nick who is an excellent instructor. It was definitely worth staying in Samokov (just outside of Borovets) to experience this place. The restaurants in Samokov are also much better value than the ones in Borovets - we went to three all recommended by Nick and loved all of them. This chalet and everything that comes as part of the package is amazing value - definitely stay here.
