Sunshine World Metro Ski Show

Sunshine World was honored to be invited to host an exhibit at the 2009 Metro Ski and Snowboard show at London's Olympia Exhibition centre. Literally thousands of people visited us at stand 128 and we helped hundreds of people to book what we are pretty sure were the cheapest full service, all inclusive, ATOL Protected packages at the whole of the show! Look out for us on a bigger stand at the same location next year.

He have solid snow in Zakopane now and the majority of runs are open providing a nice variety of skiing and and snowboarding. Also the picture shows the sunshine world chalet and one of the unique van's that we provide transport for our guests to and from the hills.

Zakopane has snow! 13th dec 09

After 2 days of snowfall the resort has transformed into that lovely winter colour that we all love. After waking up to a white resort the Sunshine World team went back up the mountain, minus the hike like last week, in search of the fluffy stuff. Check the picture out to see what we found....

The Sunshine team hike the mountain!

As the wait for the snow draws to a close the the Sunshine Team thought why not hike the mountain in search of the white stuff! Check out the pics to see how we got on!

Epic snow conditions in Zakopane continue!!

26th March. Thats right, even though we have now technically entered spring this bumper winter season 2009 in Poland continues!! An incredible amount of snow continues to dump itself on the charming resort of Zakopane, making this a truly legendary season. Continued snowfall coupled with the current off peak season ensures fresh tracks on the slopes of Harenda and Syymoszkowa off and even on piste! For all you powder hounds, the advanced ski area Kasprowy Wierch with its 1000m vertical drop, has some awesome off piste just begging for those fresh lines. Be sure to check out our website or call the office for late season BARGIN OFFERS and come and experience the magical resort of Zakopane! It rocks!!

Kasia In New News Section Update Shock!

This just in! Kasia has recently learned not only how to create news on the Sunshine World Poland News page but also how to mock Tex in more and more interesting and exhilarating ways:)Look at the picture - Zakopane is a real temptation!

 


ALL ski areas in and around Zakopane are now open!

5th Jan 2009

Greetings fellow winter enthusiasts,

Happy Snowy New Year!

Indeed it is now that magical time when we can report that all the ski and snowboard areas in and around Zakopane are now 100% open and fully operational (like the second Death Star in Star Wars Episode 6 only less destructive)... Anyway, the ski slopes at Bialka Tatrzanska are now all open, including a brand new "black run" (it's red really by normal standards :). The slopes at Harenda and Szymoszkowa have excellent snow cover- even off piste. The 1000metres of vertical drop is open for skiing and snowboarding action on Kasprowy Wierch with both bowls open for enjoyment and tons of fresh snow on and off the piste!

At Sunshine World we've already looked after over 100 happy guests and we've had an action packed Christmas and New Year.

If you're interested the first slopes actually opened on 25th November this year. The temperature is ideal for snow right now and it looks like the season will be an extended one with the slopes HOPEFULLY staying open well into April and Kasprowy Wierch LIKELY to stay open until early MAY!

Remember if you still haven't booked your skiing holiday or snowboarding holiday yet this season we have plenty of excellent deals available which we're sure cannot be matched anywhere in Europe. Yes we are biassed but we're also AWESOME :) Go on, call us! You know you want to :)

See you soon hopefully,

First Considerable snowfall hits Zakopane in OCTOBER 2008

21st October 2008

Yes that's right- It's only October but the snows are coming. This photo was taken by myself just 4 days ago. It is worth noting that it has since rained and the mountain does not look quite so picture-postcard right now :)

However, this does not negate the fact that the snow has arrived early this year and the prophetic "old men" of Zakopane have predicted a snow-heavy ski season this winter. Now they aren't the BBC of course but they have been fairly accurate in the last 3 seasons that I've been hearing their predictions.

This does not mean that there wont be a crazy bout of unpredictable global-warming to ruin our party for sure but this little news snippet will keep you up to date as the ski season draws nearer and we will bring you the truth about the weather and the snow cover as it happens.

Fingers crossed for more early, and then normal time and then late snow this season!

Zakopane: Poland's leading ski resort

Yes, Zakopane is Poland's best ski resort by a country mile. What makes Zakopane so fantastic is largely due to size of the picturesque town itself: There is one of Poland's largest (and brand new) Aquaparks, dozens of restaurants offering a full range of food from around the world and of course plenty of traditional "Goral" polish mountain food, 10 nightclubs and well over 30 bars to party the night away, 3 luxury spa hotels, over 10 3* hotels with pool and jacuzzi and sauna facilities, an ice rink, tennis courts, olympic swimming pool, paintballing battlefield in the trees, about 10 good snow mobiling and quad biking centres, 4 football pitches, 2 cinemas, 2 ten pin bowling centres, dozens of beauty salons and therapeutic massage parlors among much more to see and do and that's without even mentioning skiing and snowboarding! We love Zakopane!

2008 Ski Poland News Section Launch

Dear Sunshine People,

We figured it was about time that we created a news page to keep you up to date with the latest exciting, or just plain silly, developments at Sunshine World here in Zakopane, Poland.

As this is our first posting I feel it's a nice opportunity to let you know what's been happening lately. Well first of all we've now completed every stage of our brand new office which is located in our lovely chalet in Zakopane so we now have a firm base in both London and in Poland. We have a new office team comprising of the lovely Kasia Stalowska, Karolina Szydzik and then there's me, Alan, who if you know Sunshine World already you've already heard far too much about and if you don't know Sunshine World yet there's plenty of time to get to know each other. I do have a tendency to ramble on and drift off subject. Like now! The nice thing which I've just realised about our new news section is that it doesn't matter if I begin to babble on this page because it will soon end up at the bottom of a long stream of posts and will be rarely read by anyone. For now, while people are still reading, I'm sure you don't mind this unprofessional babbling TOO much while this is at the top of our news page. Hmm. If you're still reading now I'm most surprised!

Ok back to the subject at hand, our new polish office is go go go and we're busy putting together our best ever season (this will be our 4th consecutive season organising the best skiing and snowboarding holidays Zakopane has ever seen- Of course my opinion is as biassed as can be but I feel I am fair in my assessment. Our past guests have been wonderful in their kind comments which you can read on our testimonials page giving at least some credibility to my biassed-ness). Oops another ramble off topic! This page is great fun! I can't usually write like this on the rest of our website or I don't think anyone would ever book a holiday with us!

Anyway that's more than enough from me for quite a while, although no doubt I'll plague the page with more fairly useless babble soon. If you are still reading many thanks and please do get in touch ANY time and we'll be delighted to help you put together a wonderful, full service, fully tailored ski holiday or snowboard holiday this winter!
