Authentic household with most friendly hosts you could imagine or wish for sorrounded with endless amazing beautiful untouched nature. Just top notch hospitality. An experience I can't recommend enough.

Such a wonderful quiet getaway. Tucked away in the mountains behind the lake, this is perfect for hikers and nature lovers. A very warm welcome from the hosts, and a great practice in universal communication if you don’t speak Macedonian, Hungarian or Greek. Getting there will require a car or a long hike from the main road. I made a rewarding one day hike during my stay: walking all the way into the valley, up the road to the top, and then left over the mountain ridges, passing high over the village until coming down on the road back to Vrben. Recommended!

Vaska e Mladen hanno cercato di farci stare a nostro agio nella loro casa a Vila Vrben, sulle montagne del parco nazionale di Mavrovo, dove la natura è incontaminata e il tempo sembra essersi fermato. Anche se parlano pochissimo inglese hanno comunicato con noi grazie alla loro ospitalità squisita e al loro cuore. Stando in questo posto incantevole mi è tornata in mente la frase di Antoine de Saint Exupéry sulla bellezza che è invisibile agli occhi. Grazie per un soggiorno che ci ha riportato all'essenzialità della vita. Fabrizio & Simone

It was a great experience to stay with Mladen and Vaska in their house which is beautifully located between the mountains. Because we didn't have a common language communication was an adventure - but always fun! The place is amazing for nature loving people who want to hike, go for mushrooms or discover bear tracks. Mladen and Vaska were always warmheartingly advising us where to go and what to look for. Important info: As others already mentioned the place is NOT in Mavrovo town down at the lake but in the small village of Vrben up in the mountains.

ONLY IF YOU HAVE A CAR! Vrben is beautifully located within the mountains, it is calm and nice for hiking. Nevertheless, the next supermarket/bus stop/any service/restaurants are far away (1.5 hours hike) so you really (!!!) need to prepare well and/or have a car. Asking Kates grandparents for help (pickup from the bus, since there are no taxis) costs extra (8€ per drive). You will stay with them and they speak a mix of languages, broken english, but they are very kind people. The room is very basic, good for a couple or a short stay, would only recommend it in summer (because of the temperatures)
