Villa Borobudur Resort

Amazing view. Really friendly staff. Nice food at the restaurant. The shuttle drivers were fantastic. Great location near to Borobudar - you can see it from the hotel. Nice swimming pools. ||Downside is that the rooms kept running out of hot water when having a shower which is a bit of a nuisance when showering kids. Also would suggest needs more vegetarian options on the menu if expecting more western tourists.

This property is a little remote and needs transport to go anywhere. The resort offers a shuttle to Borobudur. We had a junior suite, which is quite basic. We rated it 3 star for the room. The main lobby and other parts of the hotel were under renovation. We saw the renovation and it should look nice once finished. Best part of our stay were the stunning views from the resort in the morning during sunrise. You have a beautiful view on the volcano, mountains and surroundings. The Borobudur temple can also been seen. The view made the difference and compensated for the rather average rooms and facilities. We guess that we will see a much nicer resort after they finished the renovation. The staff were very nice and helpful. Finally, warning about the very loud morning prayers before sunrise. Wear the ear plugs provided by the resort. Come here for the great view and relaxation after visiting the temple.

Really breathtaking scenery, friendly and supportive staffs, tasty foods, and surrounded by natures...many good points they have. You can enjoy chill time there. Each room has bird's name in local language which is very cute.As the place is quite far from the city and the road is very narrow and bumping, if you easily get car sick, it's better to take medicine for that before head to there.

Awesome resort, no regrets at all. We wish we had more time to stay here. Just one note for anyone who wants to stay here, make sure you have the right vehicle as the slope is very steep before entering the resort area.

BEAUTIFUL SETTING|For this hotel in the middle of the forest and just outside Borobudur village. Spectacular view to Borobudur bouddhiste temple. Beautiful rooms, spacious and well equipped. Very calm except during Mosque callings (sometimes very early in the morning and lasting very loooooong). |Personnel very efficient and friendly. Beautiful pool. Good local food. |On a very steep hill….

You know, it's one thing when you stay in a nice hotel that has spacious rooms and a friendly staff. It's entirely another when, as you approach the hotel and exit your car, they greet you by name, show you to your room (where they have souvenir water bottles for you), and they then bring down an afternoon snack of spring roll chocolate croissants and tea. Those are the little things that take ratings up a notch. Absolutely the best place we stayed in Indonesia, all for $100/night. Best value anywhere. Amazing views, glorious pool, a perfect getaway.

I arrived at 8pm, just to drop a friend. The villa is located on the highland. We have to hike for few hundred meters before reaching the villa. Resident's houses line the left and right of the road. Public car is only up to the lobby. The rest journey is taken by shuttle bus.|It seems wonderful up there, may be nest time I could feel it.

We had 3 great nights at the resort. Everything from checking in to checking out, the tours and the food was great. Very helpful and accommodating staff!||From the restaurant as well as from the porch and pool, you can see Borbodur as well as Sumbing and Merapi - weather needs to play along of course.||The resort is in the hills and surrounded by jungle. So if you plan to party, this might not be the right spot. And yes, there are all sorts of creatures in the jungle and flying and jumping around in the resort… we loved it!
