How we started


Our journey with GS SKI Apartment began from a shared passion for the mountains and a desire to create a special place where guests can truly experience the magic of Pamporovo. As a lifelong mountain enthusiast and former professional ski racer, Yordan always dreamed of combining his love for skiing with hosting visitors in a cozy, welcoming setting.

Meanwhile, Zhivka brought her extensive hospitality experience, having worked in five-star hotels around the world, and was eager to bring that same level of care and attention to detail to this beautiful corner of the Rhodope Mountains.

Together, we found the perfect spot within the Grand Monastery Complex—right on the slopes at Studenets—and transformed the apartment into a warm, comfortable retreat. We wanted to offer more than just a place to stay; we wanted to create a home away from home where guests feel supported, whether they’re hitting the ski runs, relaxing by the fireplace, or exploring the rich local culture.

From our first guests to every visitor since, it’s been incredibly rewarding to share our love for Pamporovo and to help create unforgettable mountain memories. We’re excited to welcome you to GS SKI Apartment and be part of your adventure!
