Chalet Planina is situated on the edge of the tranquil village of Bohinj Polje just a few minutes drive or a short walk (2.5km) via a scenic forest path to the majestic Lake Bohinj, a serene lake surrounded by towering peaks and pristine forests considered by many to be the most beautiful part of Slovenia. In Summer the Lake offers the opportunity for kayaking, sailing and rowing, as well as fly-fishing, swimming or just relaxing on the lake shore. The mountains of Lake Bohinj are fantastic for walking and arguably the best place to start climbs up Slovenia's highest mountain, Triglav. They also offer scope for great mountain biking, canyoning, paragliding as well as skiing. 20 minutes drive away from the house is world famous Lake Bled.
The ski resort Vogel above Lake Bohinj is one of Slovenia’s best with good lift infrastructure and snow record. It is 5-10 minutes drive from the house to the Vogel cable car, which is also open in the Summer giving easy access to high altitude walking and mountain biking. A 5 min drive from the house is the town of Bohinjska Bistrica which offers a modern water park with ample pool and spa facilities as well as a range of useful amenities including shops, bars, restaurants & bank. There is a wide range of other ski areas in Slovenia / Italy / Austria within day trip distance from the property. Please click here for a map / guide to these resorts.

Guestbook
Great and cozy house close to Lake Bohinj
The house is very nice with a great garden and terrace. It takes about 25 min. to walk to Lake bohinj. Great area for hiking and to go swimming. You can also start some easy hikes from the house. It's also a great location to make trips to Ljubljana or to soca valley, where you can go rafting. We stayed at the house as a group of friends, what the house was great for. The weather was great and it was quite hot outside. Unfortunately it was getting quite hot in the bedrooms as well, especially the one under the roof. In the evening we saw fireflies in the garden which was pretty cool :) I can totally recommend the house!
Dorotheah
Comfortable but a little bit small and warm during summer days. Near to the lake and the kitchen is good prepared.

Dan's Place, Chalet Planina, is a lovely 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home-away-from-home. His directions to the Chalet were perfect (better than our GPS!). Entry was easy. Chalet has all the amenities you cld want (great kitchen). Heating is excellent (one the furnace has been turned to I or ON)..plentiful hot water and great shower spray. Close to village with supermarket, restaurants, and easy driving distance to Bled, Bohinj and surrounds. Lovely to see the Julian Alps too from the deck and the upstairs bedrooms. Internet is a little slow but it works well. Would we stay there again if in Slovenia again...yes! Dan and his ABnB helpers were always available to answer any questions quickly. C&M xx
Colleen
We had a nice time at the chalet. The location is perfect! The communication with Dan was very good. The way to check-in is easy. And the house was very clean! Definitely a nice place to stay on your holiday!
Great accommodation, great location.
Chalet is in a very very calm and beautiful place. It is new, clean and stylish. We liked staying there even despite the rainy days we had there. We felt very comfortable at this place. If you would like to have a good time with the friends or your family in a house just by the forest, Chalet is your choice. We are planning to come back, hopefully to have better and warmer weather.
Cozy, hospitable, beautiful view. We liked.
Perfect accommodations and location
Very clean, stylish convenient accommodations. Comfortable beds and modern appliances. We came from another country so would have appreciated swim towels and kitchen towels. WiFi signal was weak, but worked. Excellent information and directions for visitors. Would highly recommend.

It was a very nice place to stay. While we were there, it started to snow and it became more beautiful to spend time at Dan's place. The mountain view and the trees around make you realize you are in the nature. It was clean and same as in the pictures. Easy to communicate with Dan. We were 5 people and there were no difficulties. I recommend to stay at Dan's place.
Excellent
Six of us stayed at this delightful chalet in the Slovenian Alps in December. The property is warm, comfortable and appointed with top-of-the-range furnishings and white goods. It is a chalet so the upstairs' rooms are not huge but the whole property is a gem and the open plan downstairs area is perfect. The other reviews undersell the views in my opinion - the views from the living room windows through a fir forest to snowy capped Alpine peaks are sublime. Think Slovenia are also supremely helpful and professional.Thank you.

Mountain retreat in the fall
My husband and I stayed 5 nights at Chalet Planina in October and we were very happy with the accommodations. Everything was clean and well equipped for our stay. The location was convenient to both Lake Bohinj and Lake Bled and restaurants for dinner but it was in a quiet area with gorgeous views of the mountains, especially in the morning.
Lisa
Heel fijne locatie. Heel mooie chalet.
Though the pictures look great, the chalet is even bettter. And there are not that many places like Bohinj. Go for it.
Incredible! Stunning place to stay and enjoy the sights of Slovenia. Beautiful mountain views from the garden and bedroom Windows, very well equipped kitchen and overall a wonderful home for a week's holiday. We visited as a party of 7, 2 children and 5 adults, the house was spacious and had plenty of room for everybody.
Debbie
Breakfast watching the Triglav.
It was a very comfortable house We had a very pleasant stay there. The house was fully equipped with all the necessary accessories. The house was located in a very quiet and beautiful area overlooking the Triglav.
David
This is such a gorgeous location, providing very convenient access to the lakes and the mountains. The chalet is comfortable(2 parents & 2 teens), and the kitchen is well-stocked with equipment. We found good restaurants nearby, and shopping was also quite convenient. The bakery in Bohinjska Bistrica was a good find. Slovenia is now one of our favorite travel locations, and we hope to stay here again!
I and my family spent 5 days at chalet planina, the chalet is exactly like the pictures. With a stunning view. There are 3 cute "small" bedrooms,we arrived late and the way to the apartment was a little bit unclear but the pictures and information that Nives sent helped us to find the apartment. Nives was so responsible, we had a problem in heating and she solved it very quickly . The location is great, 30 min from bled:).
We spent 4 days and 3 nights in the beautiful Julian alps, and were surprised by the stunning nature and incredible surroundings. Chalet Planina turned out to be the perfect place to stay at - it has a beautifully designed interior, the views are simply stunning and the whole place is just wonderful. The kitchen was a bless and the bedrooms and two (!) bathrooms were perfect. Nothing can be said against. Make sure to visit the Bohinj lake, Vogel mountain and the Slap Savica waterfall... and also take the cool little boat to the other side of the lake. It's worth it. What you see is what you get. Would definitely recommend to anyone wishing for relaxing but still adventurous getaway. Thank you for beautiful weekend in your house!
Perfect Location if you don't want to stay in the "Disneyland" of Bled city. Group of 4 friends and we originally were looking for a house in Bled, but didn't find an option that we liked. Found Chalet Planina near Lake Bohinj (25 minutes outside Bled) and couldn't have been happier with this choice. Lake Bohinj is bigger and more mellow than Lake Bled, but Lake Bled is just a short drive away. Hikes right from the chalet to the lake, and then around the lake, or up the gorge (Mostnica Gorge - worth it!! And there's a little cafe at the top of the gorge with great local fare) or over to the gondola up to the ski resort (also worth it). Boat ride across the lake to get to Savica Falls (and/or to the gondola).
Near new and well appointed property. We had 6 people staying and they all were accommodated without problems. The owner supplied written directions to getting to the property, but it still took a while to locate it. Access is by narrow roads. The critical turnoff is after the second bridge. The WiFi wasn't working when we arrived. To the owner's credit they acted swiftly to get us on line. Was very impressed by their responsiveness. All in I was very impressed with the property and would recommend it to others. .
We Fantastic location, good quality accommodation.The chalet was well equipped, furnished to a high standard and in a fantastic location. One of the best holiday rentals we have had.
A beautiful self-catered chalet ideal for winter skiing or summer holidays. What a beautiful location to get away for a weekend. We enjoyed our stay and will be back
We had a lovely few days at the Chalet. Beautiful views of the Julien Alps from the garden and back bedrooms. Outdoor decking perfect for breakfast in the morning and evening dinner. The chalet was well equipped and has a spacious living area. Clean and modern furnishings too. The third bedroom was disappointingly small and the loft bedroom tight for space. Otherwise a great place to stay - close to Lake Bohinj (driving distance) and good to escape to after the tourist crowds around the lake. The Pizza restaurant at the end of the road was a great find.
Beautiful chalet, great location, would love to come back in summer and use the outdoor BBQ.
To put it in one sentence: We were extremely happy with our stay at Chalet Planina! It is a beautiful and well-equipped house which makes it very cozy even in rainy Bohinj days. The view is simply breathtaking and we just loved having breakfast or BBQ on the terrace and enjoyed the starry nights there. The chalet is very tastefully decorated and has most of the necessary utilities. It was also very comfortable to have internet, a DVD-player, a dishwasher and a washing machine there. It might have been useful to have a couple more dish towels, but otherwise everything was fine.
There were two children in the group and also for them the chalet offered a lot of toys, DVDs and lovely English books. The entire arrangement of Chalet Planina is very suitable for the children. They enjoyed very much their room under the roof, even though it was quite hot there sometimes and despite the fact that the windows cannot be properly secured in order to prevent them from falling out.
Next to this, the location of the chalet is extremely good. There is sun already in the morning, the view is just amazing, the surroundings are very peaceful and everything is relatively close: the supermarkets, but also the river and the lake. It is great that there are so many materials with useful information in the chalet: in that way we could find the walking path to the lake and discovered the lovely restaurant Rupa. We hiked, went paddling and swimming.
Everyone agreed that Bohinj is an incredible place and that it should be soon revisited. :-)
Imeli smo se zelo lepo, z nastanitvijo smo bili zelo zadovoljni, prijetno in prijazno, vsi, otroci in odrasli bi še ostali. Smučali smo na Voglu, tekli na smučeh - to, da greš od vrat s smučkami, proga do Bohinjske Bistrice je bila enkratna, zadnji dan smo šli še hodit s Pokljuke na Uskovnico v čudovitem dnevu, res je bilo lepo. Hvala za ponudbo s popustom na prihodnje rezervacije, kar obvestite nas, je ne bomo prezrli.
First of all thanks a lot for making us our stay at Chalet Planina so comfortable! We really had a great time here and everything was perfect! We are so sorry that we have to leave tomorrow...
Thank you so much for your efforts - I surely will recommend your agency to my friends!
We arrived at the chalet and have been absolutely delighted with our stay. It's so cozy, well equipped and spotless. Many thanks.
We really enjoyed our stay in Slovenia. Chalet Planina was a very nice place to stay. Great location, nice, well equipped house. We were very lucky with the weather also. Our little daughter enjoyed herself very much too. Hope to have a chance again coming to Slovenia.
One peep at the view through the patio doors and you're hooked! This is a secret, idyllic, unspoilt world which the locals are thrilled to show you. I can't imagine a more delightful little house to act as base camp for skiing, fishing, swimming, canoeing or walking. Can't wait to come back!
A wonderful holiday in a stunning and secluded spot! The chalet was charming, providing us with everything we needed for a stress-free family holiday with young children. We will definately return to Slovenia and Chalet Planina very soon. "
We were bowled over by how beautiful and unspoilt Slovenia is. The chalet is in a fantatstic spot - you wake up to a spectacular view of the mountains and a pretty walk through the forest takes you down to a picture-postcard lake. There are plenty of outdoor activities to keep you entertained, or you can simply relax in the fresh air and wonderful surroundings. "
We had a great 10 days in the snow skiing, snowboarding and generally messing about in the snow. Our two children (4 and 7 yrs) were taught to ski for the first time by the most fantastic instructor, Andrej, from Alp-Bohinj in Bistrica. A fantastic holiday in a stunning location, ideal for small children - we will be back!
Vogel boasts spectacular views of Lake Bohinj, holds a variety of mountain restaurants/bars and is refreshingly tranquil without the crowds normally found in the Alps. The resort caters for all levels of skier/snowboarder including some exciting off-piste action for the more adventurous!
After a difficult journey (through our own doing) we arrived much later at night than planned. This was no problem for the Slovenian contact Pia who smoothly rearranged everything via Mobile phone. As soon as we awoke the next day surrounded by the silent majestic panorama, we felt all the stress of the journey falling away. We went on to have a fantastic family holiday, enjoying the quiet local ski slopes. The chalet is an excellent base, modern, clean comfortable and relaxed, with extraordinary views. We even had deer wading calmly through the snowy garden. It was definitely worth flying the extra few miles to find such a peaceful and unspoilt place. If you need a refreshing break... just do it.
A beautiful villa , with stunning mountain views ( the website photos really dont do it justice ! ) . We loved the surrounding area too , and in a week barely scratched the surface of all there was to do . Kayaking in lake Bohinj , with its gorgeous scenery , was my highlight ; endless mountain biking opportunities kept my husband happy , and the kids' first solo canoeing attempts were their best moment . We certainly hope to return !

Close to village with supermarket, restaurants, and easy driving distance to Bled, Bohinj and surrounds. Lovely to see the Julian Alps too from the deck and the upstairs bedrooms. Internet is a little slow but it works well. Would we stay there again if in Slovenia again...yes! Dan and his ABnB helpers were always available to answer any questions quickly. C&M xx

We had a nice time at the chalet. The location is perfect! The communication with Dan was very good. The way to check-in is easy. And the house was very clean! Definitely a nice place to stay on your holiday!
Great accommodation, great location.
Chalet is in a very very calm and beautiful place. It is new, clean and stylish. We liked staying there even despite the rainy days we had there. We felt very comfortable at this place. If you would like to have a good time with the friends or your family in a house just by the forest, Chalet is your choice. We are planning to come back, hopefully to have better and warmer weather.
Cozy, hospitable, beautiful view. We liked.
Perfect accommodations and location
Very clean, stylish convenient accommodations. Comfortable beds and modern appliances. We came from another country so would have appreciated swim towels and kitchen towels. WiFi signal was weak, but worked. Excellent information and directions for visitors. Would highly recommend.

It was a very nice place to stay. While we were there, it started to snow and it became more beautiful to spend time at Dan's place. The mountain view and the trees around make you realize you are in the nature. It was clean and same as in the pictures. Easy to communicate with Dan. We were 5 people and there were no difficulties. I recommend to stay at Dan's place.
Excellent
Six of us stayed at this delightful chalet in the Slovenian Alps in December. The property is warm, comfortable and appointed with top-of-the-range furnishings and white goods. It is a chalet so the upstairs' rooms are not huge but the whole property is a gem and the open plan downstairs area is perfect. The other reviews undersell the views in my opinion - the views from the living room windows through a fir forest to snowy capped Alpine peaks are sublime. Think Slovenia are also supremely helpful and professional.Thank you.

Mountain retreat in the fall
My husband and I stayed 5 nights at Chalet Planina in October and we were very happy with the accommodations. Everything was clean and well equipped for our stay. The location was convenient to both Lake Bohinj and Lake Bled and restaurants for dinner but it was in a quiet area with gorgeous views of the mountains, especially in the morning.

Heel fijne locatie. Heel mooie chalet.
Though the pictures look great, the chalet is even bettter. And there are not that many places like Bohinj. Go for it.
Incredible! Stunning place to stay and enjoy the sights of Slovenia. Beautiful mountain views from the garden and bedroom Windows, very well equipped kitchen and overall a wonderful home for a week's holiday. We visited as a party of 7, 2 children and 5 adults, the house was spacious and had plenty of room for everybody.

Breakfast watching the Triglav.
It was a very comfortable house We had a very pleasant stay there. The house was fully equipped with all the necessary accessories. The house was located in a very quiet and beautiful area overlooking the Triglav.
David
This is such a gorgeous location, providing very convenient access to the lakes and the mountains. The chalet is comfortable(2 parents & 2 teens), and the kitchen is well-stocked with equipment. We found good restaurants nearby, and shopping was also quite convenient. The bakery in Bohinjska Bistrica was a good find. Slovenia is now one of our favorite travel locations, and we hope to stay here again!
I and my family spent 5 days at chalet planina, the chalet is exactly like the pictures. With a stunning view. There are 3 cute "small" bedrooms,we arrived late and the way to the apartment was a little bit unclear but the pictures and information that Nives sent helped us to find the apartment. Nives was so responsible, we had a problem in heating and she solved it very quickly . The location is great, 30 min from bled:).
We spent 4 days and 3 nights in the beautiful Julian alps, and were surprised by the stunning nature and incredible surroundings. Chalet Planina turned out to be the perfect place to stay at - it has a beautifully designed interior, the views are simply stunning and the whole place is just wonderful. The kitchen was a bless and the bedrooms and two (!) bathrooms were perfect. Nothing can be said against. Make sure to visit the Bohinj lake, Vogel mountain and the Slap Savica waterfall... and also take the cool little boat to the other side of the lake. It's worth it. What you see is what you get. Would definitely recommend to anyone wishing for relaxing but still adventurous getaway. Thank you for beautiful weekend in your house!
Perfect Location if you don't want to stay in the "Disneyland" of Bled city. Group of 4 friends and we originally were looking for a house in Bled, but didn't find an option that we liked. Found Chalet Planina near Lake Bohinj (25 minutes outside Bled) and couldn't have been happier with this choice. Lake Bohinj is bigger and more mellow than Lake Bled, but Lake Bled is just a short drive away. Hikes right from the chalet to the lake, and then around the lake, or up the gorge (Mostnica Gorge - worth it!! And there's a little cafe at the top of the gorge with great local fare) or over to the gondola up to the ski resort (also worth it). Boat ride across the lake to get to Savica Falls (and/or to the gondola).
Near new and well appointed property. We had 6 people staying and they all were accommodated without problems. The owner supplied written directions to getting to the property, but it still took a while to locate it. Access is by narrow roads. The critical turnoff is after the second bridge. The WiFi wasn't working when we arrived. To the owner's credit they acted swiftly to get us on line. Was very impressed by their responsiveness. All in I was very impressed with the property and would recommend it to others. .
We Fantastic location, good quality accommodation.The chalet was well equipped, furnished to a high standard and in a fantastic location. One of the best holiday rentals we have had.
A beautiful self-catered chalet ideal for winter skiing or summer holidays. What a beautiful location to get away for a weekend. We enjoyed our stay and will be back
We had a lovely few days at the Chalet. Beautiful views of the Julien Alps from the garden and back bedrooms. Outdoor decking perfect for breakfast in the morning and evening dinner. The chalet was well equipped and has a spacious living area. Clean and modern furnishings too. The third bedroom was disappointingly small and the loft bedroom tight for space. Otherwise a great place to stay - close to Lake Bohinj (driving distance) and good to escape to after the tourist crowds around the lake. The Pizza restaurant at the end of the road was a great find.
Beautiful chalet, great location, would love to come back in summer and use the outdoor BBQ.
To put it in one sentence: We were extremely happy with our stay at Chalet Planina! It is a beautiful and well-equipped house which makes it very cozy even in rainy Bohinj days. The view is simply breathtaking and we just loved having breakfast or BBQ on the terrace and enjoyed the starry nights there. The chalet is very tastefully decorated and has most of the necessary utilities. It was also very comfortable to have internet, a DVD-player, a dishwasher and a washing machine there. It might have been useful to have a couple more dish towels, but otherwise everything was fine.
There were two children in the group and also for them the chalet offered a lot of toys, DVDs and lovely English books. The entire arrangement of Chalet Planina is very suitable for the children. They enjoyed very much their room under the roof, even though it was quite hot there sometimes and despite the fact that the windows cannot be properly secured in order to prevent them from falling out.
Next to this, the location of the chalet is extremely good. There is sun already in the morning, the view is just amazing, the surroundings are very peaceful and everything is relatively close: the supermarkets, but also the river and the lake. It is great that there are so many materials with useful information in the chalet: in that way we could find the walking path to the lake and discovered the lovely restaurant Rupa. We hiked, went paddling and swimming.
Everyone agreed that Bohinj is an incredible place and that it should be soon revisited. :-)
Imeli smo se zelo lepo, z nastanitvijo smo bili zelo zadovoljni, prijetno in prijazno, vsi, otroci in odrasli bi še ostali. Smučali smo na Voglu, tekli na smučeh - to, da greš od vrat s smučkami, proga do Bohinjske Bistrice je bila enkratna, zadnji dan smo šli še hodit s Pokljuke na Uskovnico v čudovitem dnevu, res je bilo lepo. Hvala za ponudbo s popustom na prihodnje rezervacije, kar obvestite nas, je ne bomo prezrli.
First of all thanks a lot for making us our stay at Chalet Planina so comfortable! We really had a great time here and everything was perfect! We are so sorry that we have to leave tomorrow...
Thank you so much for your efforts - I surely will recommend your agency to my friends!
We arrived at the chalet and have been absolutely delighted with our stay. It's so cozy, well equipped and spotless. Many thanks.
We really enjoyed our stay in Slovenia. Chalet Planina was a very nice place to stay. Great location, nice, well equipped house. We were very lucky with the weather also. Our little daughter enjoyed herself very much too. Hope to have a chance again coming to Slovenia.
One peep at the view through the patio doors and you're hooked! This is a secret, idyllic, unspoilt world which the locals are thrilled to show you. I can't imagine a more delightful little house to act as base camp for skiing, fishing, swimming, canoeing or walking. Can't wait to come back!
A wonderful holiday in a stunning and secluded spot! The chalet was charming, providing us with everything we needed for a stress-free family holiday with young children. We will definately return to Slovenia and Chalet Planina very soon. "
We were bowled over by how beautiful and unspoilt Slovenia is. The chalet is in a fantatstic spot - you wake up to a spectacular view of the mountains and a pretty walk through the forest takes you down to a picture-postcard lake. There are plenty of outdoor activities to keep you entertained, or you can simply relax in the fresh air and wonderful surroundings. "
We had a great 10 days in the snow skiing, snowboarding and generally messing about in the snow. Our two children (4 and 7 yrs) were taught to ski for the first time by the most fantastic instructor, Andrej, from Alp-Bohinj in Bistrica. A fantastic holiday in a stunning location, ideal for small children - we will be back!
Vogel boasts spectacular views of Lake Bohinj, holds a variety of mountain restaurants/bars and is refreshingly tranquil without the crowds normally found in the Alps. The resort caters for all levels of skier/snowboarder including some exciting off-piste action for the more adventurous!
After a difficult journey (through our own doing) we arrived much later at night than planned. This was no problem for the Slovenian contact Pia who smoothly rearranged everything via Mobile phone. As soon as we awoke the next day surrounded by the silent majestic panorama, we felt all the stress of the journey falling away. We went on to have a fantastic family holiday, enjoying the quiet local ski slopes. The chalet is an excellent base, modern, clean comfortable and relaxed, with extraordinary views. We even had deer wading calmly through the snowy garden. It was definitely worth flying the extra few miles to find such a peaceful and unspoilt place. If you need a refreshing break... just do it.
A beautiful villa , with stunning mountain views ( the website photos really dont do it justice ! ) . We loved the surrounding area too , and in a week barely scratched the surface of all there was to do . Kayaking in lake Bohinj , with its gorgeous scenery , was my highlight ; endless mountain biking opportunities kept my husband happy , and the kids' first solo canoeing attempts were their best moment . We certainly hope to return !
Great and cozy house close to Lake Bohinj
The house is very nice with a great garden and terrace. It takes about 25 min. to walk to Lake bohinj. Great area for hiking and to go swimming. You can also start some easy hikes from the house. It's also a great location to make trips to Ljubljana or to soca valley, where you can go rafting. We stayed at the house as a group of friends, what the house was great for. The weather was great and it was quite hot outside. Unfortunately it was getting quite hot in the bedrooms as well, especially the one under the roof. In the evening we saw fireflies in the garden which was pretty cool :) I can totally recommend the house!

Comfortable but a little bit small and warm during summer days. Near to the lake and the kitchen is good prepared.
