Amanjiwo Reviews

The villas are very luxurious and large, service was excellent. Huge pool. The food was excellent and they were very accomodating to off-menu requests and substitutions.

Impeccable service, top notch resort in the world, will come back again.

Perfect!

It is like a paradise, and you can see Borobudur from a distance. The room with a yard is more than 240 square meters, with first-class facilities and a little old. The four marble pillars around the bed are quite impressive. The hotel breakfast is cooked to order and is very rich. You can order dinner to be delivered to the room or to the restaurant, but the restaurant has no air conditioning, so we chose to eat in the room for two days.

Although the hotel is a bit old, all the facilities and equipment are well maintained. The only thing is that the power sockets and door and window locks are a bit old. The service is perfect. No matter where you are, the service staff can accurately call your name. You don't need to sign any bills for all consumption, and it will be automatically charged to the room account. And the service staff will always know when you are not in the room, and will take the opportunity to clean the room. They clean 10 times a day. It is a paradise for detail control. I will definitely bring my family back.

The location is very good, with the green mountains at the back and Borobudur facing the city. There is also a volcanic scenery in the distance, which is absolutely beautiful! The service is at the same level as Aman, and it feels like home. The dining is very authentic, with a variety of choices, which is great!

The room is clean and cleaned many times a day. The waiters are warm and thoughtful. Airport pick-up and drop-off are in place, there are snacks and afternoon tea, and there are gifts every day. It is well deserved 👍👍👍👍👍

I have also lived in several Amans, and I can only say that each Aman has its own advantages. This Aman is built in the tropical rainforest. The building is designed based on Borobudur. The restaurant and lobby are fully open. The architectural format is similar to a temple. The design of the whole villa suite is not comparable to many Aman. This Aman opened in 1997. Compared with the other hotels we have stayed in, the public facilities are slightly insufficient. There is no separate spa, and the spa is located in a guest room. The spa service and experience itself are still very good. Aman’s service is as usual and there are no faults. When checking in, the manager accompanied the whole process, asked about their health, answered various questions of guests, and arranged activities according to the needs of guests. I saw later that the manager had a form that recorded all the guests’ daily activities. The itinerary is very detailed. We chose Borobudur and the back mountain forest for hiking. The back mountain forest hike is very good, you can see the scenery of the whole valley, and know a lot of plants, including cloves, durians, snake skin fruits and so on. Another major feature of this Aman is that the food and beverages are particularly good. There are no good restaurants nearby. We ate at the hotel the whole time. It was the first time I saw a hotel with a full 11-page menu, and all of them can be served in the room. There are many choices. The taste is also quite good. There is also a special dinner every Friday night, which is made in the form of a food market, with traditional singing and dancing performances, which is very lively. There is also a pick-up and drop-off service, which is very convenient.

The service is very good and the view is beautiful.

The best Aman, impeccable, a must visit once in a lifetime

Compared with the price, it is lower than expected.

Very good palace style

Our Tauck group was greeted by charming little girls tossing rose petals Room 15 was very quiet except the 4:30 call to prayer. The platform bed had a flashlight and water right at hand. The private out door seating area was very welcoming, including some shade . There is a lovely menu with variety, service was a little slow but we were in no rush. The view to the Subling volcano and Borobudur across the valley was clear on the days we were there which I guess is a rarity. The pool area is spectacular, there is limited food menu available there. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They even provide a water color set to feed your creative soul.

This review has been long overdue. But it is still something to write home about. We booked 2 garden pool suites for 3 nights and they were amazing. The hotel itself is simply breathtaking. The design, ambience and the feel about the place is really unique, traditional but yet still classy. The pool and its surrounding foliage is really stunning. You really feel like you are in your own sanctuary. The room was good, with some basic necessities provided. Although i have to say the property showed its age, it was still one of the best in the area. The food and breakfast was awesome. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. We did a lot of activities from Andong, Village visit, Borobudur visit, bicycle tour, batik making, Pak Bilal dinner and river picnic. I have to say the Pak Bilal dinner was the highlight of the trip. They are A MUST DO ACTIVITY at the property. However, my daughter were bitten by some kind of bugs that left her skin irritated and itchy during the picnic. The staff were attentive and provided the necessary medicine and they even checked out on her a couple of days after we checked out. All in all, do yourself a favour, and when visiting Borobudur, stay here. You too will be impressed, dazed and amazed.
