Pros:

Вилла находится вблизи к подъемнику, рядом прокат снаряжения по приемлемой цене. Прекрасное расположение, природа делаем это место особенно приятным.

Завтраки хорошие, по типу шведского стола.

Cons:

В крыле где был наш номер не было лифта.

Convenient location, nice breakfast, ok rooms.
Pros:

It’s a very cute, low-key hotel. We stayed in their apartment room for four people and were very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, with small changes every day that kept it interesting.
They also have a small sauna that fits up to four people, available for an extra €15 per session. Since we were four, it ended up being very affordable, and we used it almost every evening.
The location is very convenient—less than a 5-minute walk to the Sitnyakovo Express lift and about a 10-minute walk to most of the village’s restaurants.

Cons:

They don’t really have a concept of daily housekeeping, or at least it wasn’t clear to us whether it needed to be requested. Normally, you wouldn’t expect to have to ask for your room to be cleaned. We stayed for four nights and did not receive any housekeeping service at all—no bed making and no emptying of the trash bins.
That said, since we were using the sauna, we did receive fresh towels every evening. We used those as shower towels and repurposed the older ones for the sauna, which worked out fine.

On a more personal note, I unfortunately lost my sleeping mask during our stay. I called the hotel to ask if they could look for it, as it couldn’t have been lost anywhere else. However, it seemed that, because it was “just” a sleeping mask, there wasn’t much effort put into finding it. It was a Mulberry silk mask costing around €50, so I would have appreciated a more thorough search—especially since it may have been mixed in with the laundry (bedsheets or towels) taken after our departure. They just called back to say they couldn’t find it.

The fact that the property is quite basic is more than made up for by great location
Pros:

Great location right in centre and very close to restaurants, bars and slopes

Cons:

Best breakfast items went quickly and no more were available like pancakes and French toast

Pros:

Много ни харесва вилата и вече 4та година отсядаме там.
Местоположението е идеално, близо до пистите ( 3-4 мин. ходене), но далеч от шума на курорта. Тихо и спокойно с гледка към гората. Стаите са чисти и практично обзаведени, имаме всичко необходимо за приятна почивка. Закуската е вкусна, а вечер може да се отпуснете в сауната или да поиграете тенис на маса или билярд.
С удоволствие ще дойдем отново във вила Ибър. Благодаря за гостоприемството.
