The private estate Sinya Gora is located in the Vyshnya tract, on the mountain opposite the 1st lift. Here are a few more cottage complexes - the eponymous tract Cherry, Citizen and Krucha. We booked a room back in October. The cheapest attic rooms for 500 UAH. were already busy. Agreed for a room on the 1st floor with a separate entrance worth 570 UAH. (with 5% discount) with breakfast. Now our room costs 100 y. e. So we saved a significant amount. The previous two years, we rested in the cottage "Natasha" for 60u. e. This season she promised 500-600 UAH. without food. But it really turned out to be 700 UAH. At first we planned cheap housing with food in Yasiny. But I wanted some conveniences and proximity to the lifts. So it turned out 2 times more expensive.
The room in Blue Mountain is large, decorated in a hunting style, with stuffed animals on the walls and photos of hunters. 2-bedroom sofa is not very comfortable. The room itself is not worth the money.
You pay for a vacation at an expensive resort. Here they wrote about the price of 65 UAH. There are no such prices in Bukovel. I do not remember how often in the room 3 * cleaning, garbage collection and change of towels. But nothing of this was noticed in a week. We did not feel much attention from the staff.

We liked the kitchen. They cook, really, delicious. Breakfasts were varied. But we were pleased with the meat only once a week, except for sausages and scrambled eggs with bacon. Mostly breakfasts were light - cottage cheese, cheesecakes, pancakes with blueberries. Very tasty herbal tea. By the way, when we were vacationing in Yasiny, the hostess was preparing a breakfast that we could not handle and it was enough until dinner. We also had dinner in the Blue Mountain. We ate white mushrooms in all kinds. Dinner cost at least 100 UAH for two. We had lunch at the Bugil cafe near the lift. Two years ago, prices here were 2 times cheaper. The food cost us a considerable amount.
We estimated that one day of rest in Bukovel, including accommodation, meals and skiing, cost us 1000 UAH. We rested abruptly in our time of crisis.
Skating this time was not the best. The weather was not very pleasant. Only in the last days a lot of snow fell and it got cold. It was a pity to leave. But we were still happy with the rest. We had already ridden before this weekend in January. We went by bus with a group. They lived in Yasiny. The cheapest option for recreation, only the road is tiring. We are going again in March. The number of people in Bukovel has also doubled in two years. On weekdays there are slightly fewer skiers than on weekends. What is even more upsetting is the safety on the tracks. Lots of cases where people are knocked down by the insane, racing at breakneck speed. But, despite the negative moments, I want to come to Bukovel again and again. Mountains charge with their energy. And spruces in the snow beckon with their fabulous beauty.
