Hotel information
Soak up views of UNESCO World Heritage Site Borobudur whilst enjoying a Java luxury holiday at this exquisite Aman retreat.
Amanjiwo’s main building offers up to 36 suites set within two graceful crescents around the central ‘Rotunda’. The suites feature top quality facilities with terrazzo flooring, high ceilings with thatched, domed roofs, as well as sliding glass doors that open up into private gardens with daybeds that allow for outdoor lounging in the sun, or dining, as you take in the scenic views. Many also have their own private pool.
Throughout your time at the resort, dining at the Makan Malam – which serves a series of classic Javanese dishes - is definitely a must try. Facilities also include art rooms, spa services, swimming pools and tennis, with the library allowing for unique lectures with Indonesian experts giving talks on the history and culture.
For a spot of culture, why not immerse yourself in the famous Borobudur; seen as one of the best ancient monuments around the world. To make the most of this unique experience, travelling by Andong - a traditional horse cart - is an authentic experience that villagers throughout the region use daily. Along with this, there are also several local villages all within walking distance should you want to experience markets and shopping for souvenirs.
Why not combine your stay here with Aman property in Indonesia? Amandari in Ubud, Amankila on the east coast of Bali, Amanusa on Bali’s southern peninsula of Nusa Dua beach, and Amanwana on Moyo Island (a marine reserve to the east of Bali), all offer the same high standards as this outstanding hotel.
