Hi Pam, what about an apartment? that way you can all be in one apartment but in separate bedrooms? Some apartments are attached to hotels so you can have the option of self catering or half board using the hotel facilities. An apartment would certainly be easier to obtain than a chalet.

Hey you can get some good deals with Balkan, i always book a family room in the iglika and usually the kids get there own room, the food is good and the Bar even better. Very close to the slopes. i always use it as it is a good base with good food and well priced.
