Villa Planina, Kranjska Gora Apartments are situated in a beautiful, peaceful position on the edge of the village of Ratece. Ratece is a charming Slovenian mountain village five minutes drive from Kranjska Gora, offering an authentic alpine experience, several excellent traditional restaurants, renowned in the region amongst local Slovenians, Italians & Austrians and various local amenities such as post office, supermarket and bars. The Villa itself offers uninterrupted views of some of the Julian Alps’ most majestic peaks and offers a huge amount of stunning walking and mountain biking from the doorstep – for example up the wonderful Tamar Valley into the Triglav National Park or to the Triple Border, the point where Italy, Austria & Slovenia meet. Beautiful Belopeški Lakes (Laghi di Fusine) are on the Italian side of the border, just a short drive away.
In winter there is skiing just 5 minutes drive or bus away at Kranjska Gora Ski Resort, a superb resort for families and beginner – intermediate level skiers. The excellent resort of Tarvisio Monte Lussari in Italy is just 15 minutes drive from the house and the resorts of Bovec -Sella Nevea (Italy – Slovenia), Arnoldstein Deilandereck & Gerlitzen (Austria) are cca 30 minutes drive, with a number of other resorts reachable as an easy day trip within an hour. Skiing at 3 resorts in 3 countries in a weekend is an unforgettable experience that is easily possible from Villa Planina. 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. There is extensive cross country skiing in walking distance of the house and the house is one of the closest places to stay to the annual World Cup Ski Jumping at Ratece Planica - the world’s highest and most famous ski jumping venue.
Kranjska Gora itself is the most famous mountain resort in Slovenia, hosting annual world cup skiing and ski-jumping events. But with stunning mountain scenery, great access to the Triglav National Park and a host of outdoor pursuits (e.g. walking, mountain biking, horse riding) it remains very popular all year round. Lake Jasna, a short walk out of the centre of Kranjska Gora offers a stunning place to swim and sunbathe in beautiful mountain scenery. The town itself is a pretty alpine affair, very family friendly, with lots of lively restaurants, bars and a couple of swimming pools / spas. There is a regular daily bus service between Ratece and Kranjska Gora, great for getting to the ski slopes.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Villa Planina. The apartment is well appointed and in a good position for me to explore that end of Slovenia and the border area with Italy.
Thanks for letting me know about the discount for returning guests – I hope to be back!

Pleasant surroundings very close to Italy and Kranjska Gora. Billiard and Table tennis in basement. Clean, warm and comfortable rooms.

Pozdravljeni,
lahko povem, da smo bili z bivanjem v apartmaju v Villi Planina zelo zadovoljni. Lokacija je prijetna, apartmaji so udobni, lepo urejeni, čisti. Zelo prav pride tudi soba, namenjena hrambi smuči, in pa soba, kjer sta biljard in miza za namizni tenis - za otroke je to prijetna popestritev.
Vsekakor bomo z veseljem izkoristili ponujen popust, v primeru da se tudi v prihodnje odločimo najeti vaše apartmaje.
Lep pozdrav,
Jasmina
Mogu Vam reći da smo uživali u boravku u Villa Planina kao i uvek, jer o tome govori i naših pet zimskih odmora koje smo proveli u ovoj vili kojom smo prezadovoljni i ne želimo je menjati. Sve je besprekorno i sve pohvale za održavanje i sadržaje koje nudi mimo smeštaja ( stoni tenis i bilijar).
Srdačan pozdrav,
Zoran s porodicom
Thank you very much for a very pleasant stay in the Julian Alps. The standard of the apartment was indeed very high, to be honest, even above our expectations. 2 comfortable spacious rooms and fully equipped kitchen (including a dish washer!) served us well. Kids enjoyed billiard and ping pong, let alone the grassy area around the house. Everything was fine. We are happy we have decided to be your guests. Thank you and hopefully see you in the future.
M. Trojnar
We loved our stay in Ratece and our Loft apartment in Villa Planina, and would definitely like to come back next year when there is snow so we can cross country ski more than just a few hours! Thanks again for the late check out - as we were finally able to see on Saturday morning what perfect conditions would be like in the area for cross country skiing.
I will be in touch again when we are in the planning stages for the next vacation!
Lori
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Villa Planina. The apartment was very spacious & well equipped. The information file was really useful & we relied on it quite heavily. The customer service from Think Slovenia was very prompt & helpful.
We hope to visit Slovenia again – what a really beautiful country!
Chas
I just wanted to thank you all for the marvels staying at Villa Planina last week. All my family enjoyed the beautiful apartment we had. It was a nice cleaned, big sitting room and great view on the mountains. We hope we will be back next year.
Andrea
Our stay at Villa Planina could not have been more relaxing and enjoyable. While we were there, it snowed for almost a full day. The village was magical and the new snow made the surroundings even more beautiful. The day after the snowfall was filled with blue sky and bright sunshine. We found ourselves taking photo after photo of the stunning panoramic views from the Villa.
Inside the villa, every amenity one could possibly want is available. The Internet connection was superb and the downstairs ping pong table and pool table came into good use during the snowy day.
The furniture is comfortable and helped us to feel at home in the Villa. The kitchen was fantastic. Michael loves to cook and took advantage of the full kitchen, utensils and dishwasher!
Our only regret is that we booked just three days. Next time we'll book at least one week!
Thanks for the update about discounts for return visits -- very good idea! I'm sure you will have many visitors returning to the Villa Planina.
Take care and enjoy the rest of the season.

Javljamo da smo proveli nezaboravan odmor u Planini. Sve je bilo savršeno, vrijeme i raspoloženje , kuća i apartman su predivni, biljar i stolni tenis velika prednost za umorna popodneva. Djeca su naučila skijati i uvijek ćemo pamtiti Kranjsku Goru po tome. Nadamo se da ćemo i iduće godine doći u isto vrijeme opet.
Hvala na svemu i puno pozdrava.
Maja i obitelj
Hvala vam na iskazanom interesu. Lijepo je vidjeti da imate tako cjelovit pristup klijentima.
Mi smo našim boravkom bili vrlo zadovoljni, kao i svime što u Vili Planina nudite. Smještaj, oprema i sve što ste nudili je vrlo kvalitetno i teško da se mogu sjetiti i jednog prijedloga za unapređenje a kamoli neke zamjerke. Također, vaša nam je ponuda vrlo interesantna jer s djecom volimo dolaziti u Sloveniju –u svako doba godine: i ljeti i zimi (bavimo se i biciklizmom).
Ana
We had a nice time at Villa Planina, every thing was working and the apartment was clean, bright and airy. My only comment is that the mattresses in the main bedroom were too soft for me and I would have liked a couple of extra pillows to sleep. This is the only thing.It was our first time in Slovenia , it is a beautiful area and as we love mountains we probably come back one day.
Daniela
Hi, all 5 of us really enjoyed our stay. That is my 4th time into Slovenia and the location in Ratece was perfect for driving into Austria and Italy. Villa Planina was really nice and modern, the views every morning were wonderful. Facilities in the Villa were really good and the washing machine came in handy on an activity holiday, I never did work out how to use the microwave or dvd player however. Thanks for a pleasant stay.
Dawn
The stay was very nice. We liked the interior of the villa, it was exactly as in the pictures.
The villa is beautiful, the sights around are incredible! The kids skied in kranjska-gora. We went shopping to Tarvisio and went to Planica. Also we enjoyed the Surc and Gostilna. Thank you for the tip to make reservations. We enjoyed the games room also. The quiet and the village sights were outstanding. Thank you again for everything. We hope we will go back to villa planina next year and told our friends about it, so we might not come alone. Thank you again.
Calin Gherghel
We had a great time thanks. The apartment was fantastic and the housekeeper was very welcoming. All the locals in the village were really friendly - especially the restaurant staff - we tried each restaurant. It's a great base for touring around Slovenia, Italy and Austria and we found some spectacular walks. All in all a fantastic trip and we are already recommending to others.

Wonderful place to pass your hollidays.. great time... near the best ski center of Kranjska Gora.. Near to Tarvisio.. Near to Villach... great places to visit arround during the day, relaxing and very clean place... So kind people... I had so great time in Villa Planina in Ratece, easy to reach, great to stay in.. Thanks again for the great time you made us have.
Marina, Italy
We had a fantastic time here, we loved the apartment and it's location. We would definitely like to stay here again some time. It's very quiet and peaceful with beautiful views. It is a great place to come to get away from it all in a rural village full of flowers. We would recommend it to people who like peace and quiet and do not want any night-life on their doorstep. It is not far from Kranska Gora by car if you want more touristy type shops and facilities and it's great for walking and cycling.
Bristol, England
We stayed in the two-bedroom first floor apartment which we found very roomy and clean with all the facilities we could wish for. The apartment had a nice long balcony with excellent views in all directions. The village is quite rural and probably has as many tractors as cars. Having said that, there was a choice of at least four restaurants plus a pub. We went early in July when some of the restaurants closed for holidays. They must have arranged it between themselves though as there was always somewhere open for when we gave the self-catering aspect a miss for the evening !! There was also a small supermarket at the other end of the village (about 10 minutes walk) which was fine for the essentials. The walking was very good in this area with several walks being possible from the apartment without having to drive. The cycle track to Kranjska Gora (and Italy in the other direction) was also just a short distance away. We had a really good time and wouldn't hesitate in recommending the apartment and the area.

They must have arranged it between themselves though as there was always somewhere open for when we gave the self-catering aspect a miss for the evening !! There was also a small supermarket at the other end of the village (about 10 minutes walk) which was fine for the essentials. The walking was very good in this area with several walks being possible from the apartment without having to drive. The cycle track to Kranjska Gora (and Italy in the other direction) was also just a short distance away. We had a really good time and wouldn't hesitate in recommending the apartment and the area.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Villa Planina. The apartment is well appointed and in a good position for me to explore that end of Slovenia and the border area with Italy.
Thanks for letting me know about the discount for returning guests – I hope to be back!

Pozdravljeni,
lahko povem, da smo bili z bivanjem v apartmaju v Villi Planina zelo zadovoljni. Lokacija je prijetna, apartmaji so udobni, lepo urejeni, čisti. Zelo prav pride tudi soba, namenjena hrambi smuči, in pa soba, kjer sta biljard in miza za namizni tenis - za otroke je to prijetna popestritev.
Vsekakor bomo z veseljem izkoristili ponujen popust, v primeru da se tudi v prihodnje odločimo najeti vaše apartmaje.
Lep pozdrav,
Jasmina
Mogu Vam reći da smo uživali u boravku u Villa Planina kao i uvek, jer o tome govori i naših pet zimskih odmora koje smo proveli u ovoj vili kojom smo prezadovoljni i ne želimo je menjati. Sve je besprekorno i sve pohvale za održavanje i sadržaje koje nudi mimo smeštaja ( stoni tenis i bilijar).
Srdačan pozdrav,
Zoran s porodicom
Thank you very much for a very pleasant stay in the Julian Alps. The standard of the apartment was indeed very high, to be honest, even above our expectations. 2 comfortable spacious rooms and fully equipped kitchen (including a dish washer!) served us well. Kids enjoyed billiard and ping pong, let alone the grassy area around the house. Everything was fine. We are happy we have decided to be your guests. Thank you and hopefully see you in the future.

We loved our stay in Ratece and our Loft apartment in Villa Planina, and would definitely like to come back next year when there is snow so we can cross country ski more than just a few hours! Thanks again for the late check out - as we were finally able to see on Saturday morning what perfect conditions would be like in the area for cross country skiing.
I will be in touch again when we are in the planning stages for the next vacation!
Lori
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Villa Planina. The apartment was very spacious & well equipped. The information file was really useful & we relied on it quite heavily. The customer service from Think Slovenia was very prompt & helpful.
We hope to visit Slovenia again – what a really beautiful country!
Chas
I just wanted to thank you all for the marvels staying at Villa Planina last week. All my family enjoyed the beautiful apartment we had. It was a nice cleaned, big sitting room and great view on the mountains. We hope we will be back next year.
Andrea
Our stay at Villa Planina could not have been more relaxing and enjoyable. While we were there, it snowed for almost a full day. The village was magical and the new snow made the surroundings even more beautiful. The day after the snowfall was filled with blue sky and bright sunshine. We found ourselves taking photo after photo of the stunning panoramic views from the Villa.
Inside the villa, every amenity one could possibly want is available. The Internet connection was superb and the downstairs ping pong table and pool table came into good use during the snowy day.
The furniture is comfortable and helped us to feel at home in the Villa. The kitchen was fantastic. Michael loves to cook and took advantage of the full kitchen, utensils and dishwasher!
Our only regret is that we booked just three days. Next time we'll book at least one week!
Thanks for the update about discounts for return visits -- very good idea! I'm sure you will have many visitors returning to the Villa Planina.
Take care and enjoy the rest of the season.
Kathy and Michael
Javljamo da smo proveli nezaboravan odmor u Planini. Sve je bilo savršeno, vrijeme i raspoloženje , kuća i apartman su predivni, biljar i stolni tenis velika prednost za umorna popodneva. Djeca su naučila skijati i uvijek ćemo pamtiti Kranjsku Goru po tome. Nadamo se da ćemo i iduće godine doći u isto vrijeme opet.
Hvala na svemu i puno pozdrava.
Maja i obitelj
Hvala vam na iskazanom interesu. Lijepo je vidjeti da imate tako cjelovit pristup klijentima.
Mi smo našim boravkom bili vrlo zadovoljni, kao i svime što u Vili Planina nudite. Smještaj, oprema i sve što ste nudili je vrlo kvalitetno i teško da se mogu sjetiti i jednog prijedloga za unapređenje a kamoli neke zamjerke. Također, vaša nam je ponuda vrlo interesantna jer s djecom volimo dolaziti u Sloveniju –u svako doba godine: i ljeti i zimi (bavimo se i biciklizmom).
Ana
We had a nice time at Villa Planina, every thing was working and the apartment was clean, bright and airy. My only comment is that the mattresses in the main bedroom were too soft for me and I would have liked a couple of extra pillows to sleep. This is the only thing.It was our first time in Slovenia , it is a beautiful area and as we love mountains we probably come back one day.
Daniela
Hi, all 5 of us really enjoyed our stay. That is my 4th time into Slovenia and the location in Ratece was perfect for driving into Austria and Italy. Villa Planina was really nice and modern, the views every morning were wonderful. Facilities in the Villa were really good and the washing machine came in handy on an activity holiday, I never did work out how to use the microwave or dvd player however. Thanks for a pleasant stay.
Dawn
The stay was very nice. We liked the interior of the villa, it was exactly as in the pictures.
The villa is beautiful, the sights around are incredible! The kids skied in kranjska-gora. We went shopping to Tarvisio and went to Planica. Also we enjoyed the Surc and Gostilna. Thank you for the tip to make reservations. We enjoyed the games room also. The quiet and the village sights were outstanding. Thank you again for everything. We hope we will go back to villa planina next year and told our friends about it, so we might not come alone. Thank you again.
Calin Gherghel
We had a great time thanks. The apartment was fantastic and the housekeeper was very welcoming. All the locals in the village were really friendly - especially the restaurant staff - we tried each restaurant. It's a great base for touring around Slovenia, Italy and Austria and we found some spectacular walks. All in all a fantastic trip and we are already recommending to others.

Marina, Italy
We had a fantastic time here, we loved the apartment and it's location. We would definitely like to stay here again some time. It's very quiet and peaceful with beautiful views. It is a great place to come to get away from it all in a rural village full of flowers. We would recommend it to people who like peace and quiet and do not want any night-life on their doorstep. It is not far from Kranska Gora by car if you want more touristy type shops and facilities and it's great for walking and cycling.

We stayed in the two-bedroom first floor apartment which we found very roomy and clean with all the facilities we could wish for. The apartment had a nice long balcony with excellent views in all directions. The village is quite rural and probably has as many tractors as cars. Having said that, there was a choice of at least four restaurants plus a pub. We went early in July when some of the restaurants closed for holidays. They must have arranged it between themselves though as there was always somewhere open for when we gave the self-catering aspect a miss for the evening !! There was also a small supermarket at the other end of the village (about 10 minutes walk) which was fine for the essentials. The walking was very good in this area with several walks being possible from the apartment without having to drive.
