Best ski resort in SE Europe.
Not too expensive (if you study the offer a little)
Very well organized.
The slopes are in good condition in the matters of maintaince.

Good place to snowboard, but because the mountains are not too high (lower than 2000 m) then it is quite temperature dependent and with plus degrees it can affect also the snow quality on the tracks quite fast.
Prices are quite high compared the overall prices in Ukraine.
Ski lifts are quite overcrowded, so if the budget is not so tight the VIP pass would be good solution.
Otherwise be ready to spend time on queue and they can be quite long and messy.
Luckily there are webcams where you can easily check the live situation of the tracks and lifts and queues. The information about the maps of lifts working isn't the most accurate, because some of the lifts which are shown as working on the homepage are in the real time unfortunately closed.

A resort worth visiting. Everything is well organized, the prices are average and the food is almost everywhere from good to very good and you can find even cheap accommodation in more than decent conditions. Besides the slopes there are all kinds of activities so if you don't just want to ski or come with someone who doesn't ski, don't get bored. Regarding the slopes, I would like to mention: they are blue, red and black, but if you are snowboarding on many of the blue ones, there are straight sections that you stop on, no matter how fast you come.
Awesome choice to learn skiing. Remember to be polite to each other on the tracks! Unfortunately, the price to quality ratio here can't keep up with resorts abroad.
What you need to know about Bukovel (compared to Alpine resorts) it’s small but still decent size, lots of hotels, bars and restaurants, expensive for Ukraine, but still cheaper than the Alps. It’s generally about 30-40% too busy for it’s size. Skiing is OK only… it’s quite disconnected, basically 3 areas - starting at lifts 2, 5 or 7. The areas from 5 & 7 have connections, but lift 2 is a particular choke point with old fashioned lifts - 2x chair and 4x chair. We had the added misfortune to come when the 4x chair was out of service. This resulted in queues of 90 minutes!!!! That will simply ruin your day, but there’s no other way to get across the resort. Because of these poor connections, and many day visitors from surrounding areas, the car traffic at the end of the ski day is horrible also. Seems to me they could invest in better lifts, and make a trail from top of 7 to lift 1 perhaps… when it comes to restaurants, you’ll find yourself eating at any one of the many Cartel owned places, with their high prices and mediocre dishes. Else you’ll be stuck with Ukrainian food or pizza - both of which are fine; but not more than once per week for me… Anyway, not the worst resort I’ve been to, but sooo far from the best.
Very nice area. It is really prepared to be a get away place with many hotels, ski resorts & restaurants. There is Verity of activities during different seasons of the year. In winter obviously the main attraction is the skiing part. But style you can enjoy the Zip lines, Roller coster which looks fun as it starts in the top of the mountain & take tou through the trees. In summer & other seasons the views are just stunning.
Nice and beautiful place. You can spend here 3 to 4 days in summer time with family and friends. Some areas good for kids and adults. You can swim at the near lake. Take the chairlifts up the mountain to get a beautiful photos of the nature. If you like skiing so this place is for you. Snow will cover the whole area at winter time so you can choose how many days needed to stay.
Impressed how much they advanced in terms of service and comfort. The prices for the ski are very fair, accommodation can be expensive according to the locals' income but it all depends on the provider. But even if the price is quite high - the comfort is guaranteed! The most unfair price I would say is in the restaurants.
But the view from the top of the mountain makes you feel like like in heaven... Also you can find plenty of activities.
