Villa Borobudur Resort Reviews

Nice place with great view on Borobudur even if you don’t notice it when you arrive ! Perfectly quiet .

We were a group of four people and one child. We originally booked two suites, but I didn't expect to be upgraded to a villa with a swimming pool. It was a pleasant surprise. The welcome fruit was also very good, and the service was even better. We booked tickets to the top of Borobudur on behalf of us, and there was a special driver to pick us up. It felt like a VIP throughout the trip. The hotel is located on the hillside, and the scenery is superb. When the visibility is good, you can see two volcanoes and the Borobudur scenic area.

The hotel is on a hill, and the room overlooks the village and Borobudur. Every morning I am awakened by the sound of birds chirping, traditional Indonesian music in the hotel is like the tinkling of spring water, and in the afternoon the sound of chanting comes from the foot of the mountain. At night, watching the stars under the mountain in the darkness, this is the feeling of relaxation. The hotel's wifi is very poor, but isn't vacationing just about escaping from the world? The room is a traditional Indonesian building, the ceiling and windows are very distinctive, and the bed is very comfortable. The breakfast is very rich, including Western-style toast and omelettes, Indonesian fried rice and noodles, and a lot of fruit juices, all of which taste good. The hotel can also help arrange tickets for climbing to the top of Borobudur, and the car and tour guide services are excellent. is a great choice.

Located halfway up the mountain, when you enter it, it's like entering a black shop, but there is another shop in the dark, and the scenery is good. You can see Borobudur and the volcano through the window, and the scenery is beautiful. As long as you are not afraid of ants, I highly recommend staying there.

Very comfortable and happy! The service was excellent! Uniquely styled resort hotel.

Very comfortable...quiet a**osphere...nice view.....good food...friendly staff

approx

Awesome setting, high above the town with the Borobudur Temple visible off in the distance. The common area and bedrooms have traditional decor. The bedroom and bathroom are spacious. The bedroom includes modern amenities, such as multiple charging ports, a/c and a writing table. For added protection, the bed had mosquitoe netting that did not appear to be needed when we were there. The internet signal was strong throughout the property. There is no tv. The pool was clean and inviting. The facility provides transporation to nearby sites and can arrange transport throughout the region. The staff was warm and accommodating. Food was simple and delicious. They had a well stocked bar and offered a good selection of wine. Caution...the steps from reception to the rooms and pool are steep. This is not the best location for patrons with physical disabilities. On site they have a wonderful vista for sunrise and sunset viewing.

This was a beautiful and relaxing place to get away for a weekend! I would highly recommend it to anyone coming to visit Borobudur, which you can actually see from your patio. The staff is very attentive, the food was great, and there are many excursions they can help you to book. As for me, I didn't go anywhere the whole weekend and loved every minute!

wonderful place!! I had been upgraded to a hill top villa with private pool, the staff are so friendly and helpful, will introduce to my family for sure

This is a gorgeous gorgeous hotel. It's located on a hill facing Borobudur and Sumbing volcano. The property is so beautiful and the villas are just breathtaking. They even have a tea place to watch sunrise that they will drive you to if you ask. It's like right next to Amanjiwo, just as beautiful, and at a faction of the price. The staff is so helpful, we got driver and car for excursions and they are all top notch. I can't say enough good things about this place. The only thing to mention is that the villas are built on a pretty steep hill, so if you have mobility issues, make sure they don't give you a villa toward the top of the hill. Also, the call to prayer will wake you up at insanely early hours. But it's like that everywhere and nothing you or the hotel can do. Just take it as your sunrise wake up call.

This secluded resort where you can truly rest without crowds surrounding you is a gem. While the suites do show ( just a tiny bit) some wear and tear, the overall comfort was just great. Rooms and bathroom are big, and one sleeps well. No TV and that was perfect. What makes this resort truly exceptional is the quality of the service. All staff from house keeping, reception, restaurant, drivers are absolutely dedicated to make to stay a great one. Always smiling, prompt at assisting you, handling all your excursions booking without a single hitch and without its having to remind them about any of our requests. Last bit not least, their restaurant “Taste Java” offers a great selection of local food (99.9% of the menu is made of Javanese dishes, including may ways to prepare bananas…). One has to dig into the menu and try as many things as possible as the quality is top notch, and very healthy. Of note for those wondering why the restaurant is not very busy: don’t get fooled….Most guests are staying in villas that have dining rooms, where the food would be served. The suites guests would be the ones eating at the restaurant while enjoying a beautiful scenery. Bottom line, we enjoyed a hassle and problem free week in Borobudur Villa and highly recommend them.

Villa up the hill with a fantastic view of Borobudur Temple and the surrounding peaks. Beautiful and comfortable villa with 2 bedrooms and a swimming pool. Very dedicated staff always ready to assist.

Service by staff is excellent. Everything is on time and on the dot. One of the cleanest private pool I've seen Food is good. One of the pricest hotel around the area though.
