An hour’s drive from Yogyakarta airport or a scenic two hour drive from Solo airport, Amanjiwo is a 36 suite resort set in the heartland of Central Java. The resort’s architectural style pays homage to centuries of grand temple construction in the region.
Set within a natural amphitheatre with views to the Kedu Plain and four volcanoes on the horizon, Amanjiwo looks onto the world’s largest Buddhist sanctuary, 8th century Borobudur. Suites feature terrazzo flooring and domed roofs, with sliding glass doors that open to a garden terrace. Interiors boast a four-poster bed on a raised terrazzo platform, sungkai wood screens, coconut wood and rattan furniture, batik pillows, traditional glass paintings and a sunken outdoor bathtub. All suites include a thatched bale with a daybed for relaxing and dining and 15 suites come with private swimming pools.
Excursions take place by car, bicycle, horse or elephant. A haven for trekkers and hikers, Central Java presents myriad cultural activities. At the end of a busy day, the bar offers spectacular views while Indonesian and Western cuisines are served in the restaurant, including the speciality of the house, Makan Malam, a series of classic Javanese dishes served in traditional brass bowls.
