🍗 **€21 FOR DINNER & 3 BEERS?! 🍺**

Leanne and I tried **Eagles Nest Restaurant in Bansko** for the first time in a long time this week and we were seriously impressed!

We had the **huge chicken skewer** with sautéed potatoes, Shopska salad and garlic perlenka bread — and it was absolutely delicious, the portion and quality were fantastic.

Add **3 beers** and our total bill for the two of us came to an unbelievable **€21!** 😲

We've eaten at plenty of Bansko's traditional mehanas, but Eagles Nest definitely deserves a place on our list of recommendations.

Another little Bansko gem discovered! ❤️🇧🇬

🚨 **FEBRUARY IS NEARLY SOLD OUT!** 🎿❄️

Our February 2027 availability has disappeared fast — most weeks are now **fully booked!** 😮

We’ve only got **two weeks left at River Pine Chalet**:

📅 **30th January – 6th February**
📅 **20th – 27th February**

And that’s it for February!

If you’re thinking about a Bansko ski trip next winter, **now is definitely the time to get in touch**. Once these two weeks are gone, February is completely booked. 🎿🏔️

**River Pine Chalet • Great for groups • Bansko • February 2027**

Don’t leave it until the snow arrives — **you might be too late!** 😉

🎿 **ANOTHER WINTER BOOKING IN THE BAG!** 🇧🇬❄️

15 guests from the **UAE** have just booked our **Ginchini Chalet** for **6th–13th February 2027!** 🇦🇪✈️

We’re guessing they’re ready to swap the desert for some serious snow! 😂❄️

**And don't worry… we don't ski on sand!** 🤣🎿

A week of skiing, mountains, après-ski, great food and plenty of Bansko fun awaits.

**Welcome to Bansko — we can’t wait to have you!** ❤️

🚨 **CHALET HOST MISSING IN ACTION!** 🚨🎿🍻

When the chalet host disappears during après-ski… you know the guests are probably involved! 😂

Caught **Leanne** at the Happy End Bar in Bansko, apparently having far too much fun with the guests and forgetting she’s supposed to be working! 🍻🤣

**Après-ski with the Explore Bansko crew — we know how to do it!** 🎿🥂

🇮🇹 Bentornati! ❄️⛷️

We're delighted to welcome back a fantastic group of Italian guests who will be staying with us 6–13 February 2027. They first stayed with us 9 years ago, and it's a pleasure to have them returning to Bansko!

We're also receiving lots of enquiries, and availability for the 2027 ski season is becoming more limited each week. If you're planning a trip with family, friends or colleagues, now is the time to secure your preferred dates.
