Amanjiwo

An absolutely wonderful five-night stay at Amanjiwo. We had so many memorable experiences: visiting Borobudur at sunrise, exploring a local village by horse-drawn carriage, dining at Pak Bilal’s house, and much more. The staff were always cheerful, incredibly helpful and genuinely friendly, making our stay feel truly special. A big thank you to everyone, and especially to Rio at the pool restaurant and Nafi, “our” absolutely wonderful driver. You made our stay even more memorable. Thank you for an unforgettable experience

We came to Amanjiwo hoping that the three of us could climb Borobudur together. I desperately wanted to do it with my parents, but honestly wasn’t sure we could. We did it. Standing together on Borobudur became one of the most special moments of our trip to Indonesia, and Amanjiwo played a very real part in making it possible. We stayed at Dalenjiwo, which is extraordinary, but what I will remember most is how genuinely cared for we felt. Djoko and Dodo quickly learned our routines and preferences and looked after us beautifully. Ruri, our driver, took wonderful care of us, and the culinary and food and beverage teams went out of their way to adapt meals for our family. It was all the little things: morning jamu and coffee, my endlessly replenished cassava chips, thoughtful surprises, and people remembering what each of us liked. My parents casually mentioned missing Taarak Mehta, and somehow a television and satellite dish appeared in their pavilion! The spa team was extraordinary and became an important part of our stay. They took wonderful care of my parents and gave them a place where they could completely relax and be looked after. And Amanjiwo made travel feel almost frictionless. From our airport pick-up to our departure, transfers, luggage, boarding passes and airport assistance were handled so seamlessly that we barely had to think about any of it. Even as we were leaving, Wawan came personally to say goodbye, which meant a great deal to us. But Borobudur was the heart of our stay. The Amanjiwo team helped us approach it at our own pace and made something that had seemed daunting feel possible. Seeing my parents standing there with me is a memory I will keep forever. Dalenjiwo gave us an extraordinary place from which to experience Borobudur. The people of Amanjiwo made Borobudur part of our family’s story. Thank you Djoko, Dodo, Ruri, Wawan, the extraordinary spa team, and the culinary and food and beverage teams for taking such wonderful care of the three of us. We did it together — and we will never forget it.

Great service, accommodation, tours and food. We booked a garden pool suite and were surprised when our room had a distant view of Borobudur Temple. The concierge also arranged a fantastic bike tour through rice paddies and villages as well. Many thanks to the management and staff for a fantastic stay. One suggestion for improvement is to continue to train some your restaurant staff. Some areas for improvement there in terms of accuracy of orders and table set up

Phenomenal. Perfect in every way.

A hotel with a great atmosphere, overall meeting Aman standards. I really wanted to give it five stars because it exceeded my expectations in many ways. However, at the standard check-in time of 2 p.m., the room was still not ready — something I did not expect to happen at an Aman hotel, which was disappointing, especially since we arrived before 10 a.m. and had already informed the hotel of our flight details. Moreover, we saw many guests who arrived much later than us gradually being checked into their rooms, which made us very uncomfortable. (Yes I know there are different room types, and I trust that the hotel did not do this on purpose, but it was still hard not to feel that we were being treated differently.) Also here every staff member is trained to remember our itinerary. This is very nice, but they seemed to lack internal communication. We received reminders from four different staff members giving us a different departure times for an activity, which left us very confused.
