Villa Borobudur Resort

Amazing staff, super friendly, service amazing. Food menu is extensive, breakfast very nice. Good cocktails. The hotel arranged VIP tickets for the borobodur. The transportation to and from other places was within the hotel fee, without any trouble. This hotel is a gem if you like the quietness for a few days, everything is very relaxed. The pool is amazing and also has a view towards the Borobodur temple complex. Hotel room was very nice, Indonesian style interior with a very comfortable bed.

Amazing views with super friendly and helpful staff. A great location close to Borobudur temple with easy transport from the hotel. We loved the private pool! A note for pickier travelers - Food was fine and on par with most Indonesian resorts outside of Bali (and this may not be to western standards). It’s Javanese style so open air design in the living area and the villa is surrounded by jungle which means bugs, ants and mosquitos. With mozzie nets and mosquito spray we managed just fine (and it’s easy to Gojek some from the nearby Indomaret)

A most beautiful resort with stunning views over jungle, Borobudur temple and volcano! The villas are aesthetically and exquisite, a work of Javanese art. Most comfortable bed with beautiful mosquito net around, lots of space, amazing paintings on the wall, richly carved wood ceiling. It somehow felt like staying in a little museum. Where ever you look around - inside the villas and outside in the beautiful resort area there is so much beauty to discover. The staff was excellent, nothing was too much to ask for. I had plenty contact to them before our arrival and all the bookings done through the resort worked out perfectly! In fact they couldn´t have been better!! Spend sunset at Borobudur temple on a VIP tour directly booked and arranged by the hotel. This was extraordinary! Booked a Jeep tour according to our wishes through the villages and up the tiny slopes of the mountains through mist and had another most unforgettable day with plenty precious moments. Sinar hill is also a lovely place to spend time during sunset and sunrise with a nice drink to be served up there. We had a most fantastic and unforgettable time there and would have loved to stay longer ( stayed there 3 nights )! Highly reccomended! Would and will always return if it happen to be in the area again.

Possibly the most beautiful hotel I've ever stayed in. In the hills above Borobudur the villas are aesthetically exquisite, a work of art in and of themselves. There is a king size 4-poster bed with mosquito netting in the middle of the room and able it a richly carved wood ceiling. The wood carving outside was also of the highest quality. It was like staying in a museum piece in its best sense. The staff are superb. Ridan and the rest of the team attended our every wish and always with a gracious and genuine smile. The food was excellent and we asked for it to be served on the verandah of our villa. Indonesian food is very sophisticated in its flavoring. Our drivers both from the airport and to Yogyakarta afterwards were efficient and helpful. A highlight was going up to Sinar Hill at 5.30am in the morning to the sunrise over the active volcano Merapi. Don't miss it. The sun rose directly over the volcano's peak when we were there. Coffee was brought to us. Afterwards we swam in their elegant pool then spent the morning in Borobudur temple complex in a VIP tour organized by the hotel. Another "don't miss it" experience. If you're coming to Indonesia, try to see Borobudur and definitely stay at Villa Borobudur Resort.

Absolutely gorgeous place - the location and the villa itself! The staff made us feel so comfortable. Looking over the valley and Borobodur in the distance both in the morning and the evening was superb. I was worried if it would be as beautiful as in the pictures but it really was!
