Renting and booking

How do I book a cottage?

Directly with the owner – with no middleman and no commission; we do not handle bookings ourselves. Click the cottage name to see its detailed description (in Polish), photos, address and the owner's phone number. For New Year's Eve, the winter holidays and the summer season it is worth booking well in advance.

How much does it cost to rent a cottage in the mountains?

The price depends on the season, the location, the standard of the cottage and the length of stay – you agree the final price with the owner. New Year's Eve is the most expensive period, late October and November the cheapest. Most cottages in our region are very well equipped, so the rental price is comparable to a room in a good hotel. Out of season, larger cottages can often be rented for 2 people at a lower price than for the full number of guests – it is worth asking the owner.

Can I bring my dog to the cottage?

Unfortunately, most cottage owners in Zakopane and the surrounding area do not accept guests with dogs. A list of cottages that accept dogs can be found on Zakopane with a dog (in Polish). Please note: dogs are not allowed in the Tatra National Park (TPN).

Can I book a cottage via Booking.com?

Yes – all cottages on this list have a guest rating of 9 or higher on Booking.com and can also be booked there: just click the photo of the cottage or the “see guest reviews” link. You will find other guests' reviews and online booking there. If you book directly with the owner, you can arrange all the details of your stay without a middleman.

Choosing a cottage

Which cottages have a jacuzzi?

A sauna and a jacuzzi are available, for example, at Domki Osada nad Potokiem (in each of the three houses), Domek u Kowola and Luxury Chalets Villa Gorsky. A jacuzzi is also offered by Domki pod Reglami (in the main building), Bajkowa Chata in Murzasichle (a Finnish hot tub with jacuzzi on the terrace) and Domki Przystań w Tatrach near the Bukovina Thermal Baths (at one of the three houses). More offers: cottages with a jacuzzi (in Polish).

Is there a cottage with a swimming pool?

Yes. Chata Walczaków in Zakopane has an indoor pool in a grotto and a sauna – the whole villa is rented to groups of up to 30 people. A seasonal pool in the garden is offered by Osada na Brzyzku in Poronin (a house for 20 people with a sauna) and Janulkowe Domki in Zakopane.

Which cottages are close to a ski slope?

Domki Maciejówka stand right by the Kaniówka ski slope, part of the Kotelnica resort in Białka Tatrzańska. Domki z widokiem are close to the Harenda ski slope in Zakopane. More offers: cottages near the slopes (in Polish).

Which cottage is suitable for a large group?

The largest are Chałupki pod Giewontem in Murzasichle – eight wooden chalets with 94 beds in total. The whole Chata Walczaków villa can be rented by up to 30 people. For groups we also recommend Osada na Brzyzku (20 beds), Luxury Chalets Villa Gorsky (three houses with 6, 4 and 3 bedrooms) and Dom Wioska Jagny (14 beds). More offers: cottages for groups (in Polish).

Practical information

Are the trails in the Tatra National Park open all year round?

Most hiking trails in the Tatra National Park (TPN) are open all year round. In winter, however, expect snow, ice and avalanche danger, and some sections may be temporarily closed – check current conditions before setting out. There is an entrance fee to the TPN, and dogs are not allowed. Cottages close to the TPN can be found on cottages near hiking trails (in Polish).

Where can I buy tickets for the Kasprowy Wierch cable car?

It is worth buying Kasprowy Wierch cable car tickets in advance online at www.pkl.pl. This way you avoid long queues at the ticket office, especially in high season.

Which ski pass should I buy for Zakopane and the surrounding area?

The Tatry Super Ski pass lets you ski on most slopes in Zakopane and the surrounding area. The most popular ski resort in Poland is Kotelnica Białczańska in Białka Tatrzańska. In the winter season the roads to Kotelnica are often congested, so it is worth heading to the slopes early in the morning, between 8 and 9 a.m.

Zakopane, Kościelisko or Białka Tatrzańska – where should I rent a cottage?

We recommend Zakopane (30,000 inhabitants, 100 km from Kraków) to visitors who want to enjoy cultural events, museums, galleries and the cable cars to Kasprowy Wierch and Gubałówka – it is also a good choice for visitors without a car. Kościelisko offers beautiful views of the Western Tatras and Giewont; it suits active visitors (preferably with a car), cyclists and, in winter, cross-country skiers. We recommend Białka Tatrzańska and the surrounding area (Bukowina Tatrzańska, Rzepiska) to skiers – it has the most popular ski resort in Poland and the year-round Terma Bania thermal baths.
