The views are genuinely breathtaking.
Within traditional, reconstructed Javan houses, the interiors are spacious and bright with a very contemporary sense of luxury, yet decorated with original features and antiques. All benefit from a private outdoor space and splendid views across the plantation or into the valley beyond. Wellbeing and healthy living are the focus here and there’s a comprehensive range of spa treatments, fitness activities and retreat packages. Enjoy walks in the mountains, herbal massages, homely local food, and plenty of fresh air.
In the cool, coffee-growing hills of central Java, about an hour’s drive from Borobudur, this classic, spacious hilltop resort is surrounded by manicured gardens and lush wilderness - the ideal escape.
