The only thing - and it seems they haven't worked this out in Java in general - was that there were no fly screens to keep mosquitoes out. It would have been great to keep windows open - room got a bit stuffy.

The location was wonderful with views on Merapi mountain or into the forest. Staff were very friendly. Beds were very comfy.

Bathroom could have done with a little spruce up, upstairs room could have done with some additional decoration.

Beautiful garden, room had a lovely view, comfortable bed. Lovely attentive staff.

Such a peaceful paradise surrounded by rice fields and forest. Staying in the traditional-style villa was a unique experience, plus very comfortable.

Niko the cat, stunning jungle location, Dede - the accommodating manager who was very easy with our late arrival and my careless booking - where I accidentally booked the wrong date. The delicious nasi goreng breakfast and fried bananas , beautiful gardens and pool and jungle surrounds.

I think for the price , no air-conditioning or breakfast they would get a lot more guests with a better price per room

We have stayed before, and it is very beautiful the nature . And came back again as very lovely . Bed comfortable and staff very nice.

The property is set in a peaceful location. The grounds are well kept and the villas are well maintained and very clean. I stayed here after having lived in Jakarta and so this was the perfect place to relax and find my soul again. The pool is very refreshing, after a good hike and the restaurant menu was vert tasty. I really enjoyed my stay and wished I could have stayed longer. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and hiring a scooter was easy. I recommend hiring a scooter and exploring this amazing part of Indonesia.

The location was perfect, very peaceful with views of Merapi. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The pool was great to relax in. The cafe on site did really good food, especially the pisang goreng and pisang pancakes! We rented a moped so we could explore the area, it's about 50 minutes into Yogykarta. Dedy was really helpful and took us to the train station. It was a difficult place to leave!!!

My only complaint is no hot water in the shower, other than that everything was perfect.

Staff were lovely, location is fantastic, cafe food and drinks are good with very reasonable prices, very accommodating stay.

Stayed in April 2025

there was only cold water in the shower and we are at th altitude of 600 meter so it was not tropical hot.

Non stop personal attention, nothing was tooo much! I checked in at 21:00 and the prepared dinner! Fantastic!

Such a lovely, cute and cozy place, with an incredible volcano view! They have restaurant with great food and beverages, breakfast is delicious and generous and staff very kind and helpful! It's on a beautiful serene place out of the rush of a city, but with a good connection. Lots of hiking possibilities around. Truly one of the best places to stay in Java, we loved it so much, thank you for everything!
