Hi, we will be arriving 3.1.04 for a weeks ski holiday and will be staying at the Malina Village in a chalet. Anyone got any news / advice about this place and anyone else going there at this time? Sure hope there is snow to greet us when we arrive!!!Cheers John & Sarah

Close to the slopes, and very cosy.You will need a taxi if you intend to do the clubs in the evening, but they are only a few minutes away and will cost you about £1.50 each way.

I STAYED WITH A GROUP OF FOUR AT THE MALINA VILLAGE IN JANUARY 2003. THE CHALETS ARE PLEASANTLY SITUATED IN A WOODED AREA A SHORT RIDE AWAY FROM THE VILLAGE OF BOROVETS. I STRESS A RIDE AS ITS QUITE A WALK ON A FAR FROM STRAIGHT ROAD THROUGH THE WOODS (OR SHOULD I SAY FOREST) MADE NARROW BY SNOW PUSHED TO THE SIDES OF THE ROAD. THE LAST BUS IN THE MORNING TO REACH THE VILLAGE FOR YOUR 10AM SKI SCHOOL START TIME WILL BE AT 9.30AM. BEFORE THAT I BELIEVE THEIR EVERY 20 MINUTES. WE NEVER MADE ...

I DON'T KNOW WHY!!!!!! I THINK IT WAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE NIGHT BEFORE!!!!
THE CHALET ITSELF. PLEASE BARE IN MIND YOU ARE HOLIDAYING IN A COUNTRY THAT IS NOT AS FORTUNATE AS THE ONE THAT WE LIVE IN, SO YOU SHOULD PREPARE YOURSELF FOR SOME DIFFICULTIES. FOR EXAMPLE FLUSHING THE TOILET - YOU NEED THE USE OF THE SUPPLIED BUCKET. HOT WATER - FOR FOUR OF US CAME IN SHORT SUPPLY. DON'T EXPECT TO COOK OR HEAT WATER ON STOVE - IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME. YOU WILL NOT BE COLD THOUGH - HE FOUND HE HAD TO KEEP THE HEATING DOWN LOW.
THERE ARE MANY GOOD RESTAURANTS IN THE VILLAGE. KATIE'S (AGAIN I THINK I'M CORRECT WITH THE NAME) BECAME ARE FAVOURITE, ALTHOUGH FOR A PIZZA TAKE A SHORT WALK OFF THE MAIN STREET OPPOSITE THE RILA, JUST PASSED AN INTERNET CAFE ON YOUR LEFT. THE NAME ESCAPES ME ALTHOUGH I COULD FIND OUT, JUST NEED TO ASK MY FRIENDS.
IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, PLEASE LEAVE THEM HERE, I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP, OTHERWISE I SURE YOU'LL HAVE A GOOD SKIING VACATION.
