From misty forests to ancient temples, central Java is a land where time seems to stand still. With traditionally styled villas and luxury trims and trappings, Plataran Borobudur balances historical immersion with contemporary creature comforts with an unbeatable view over the ninth-century Borobudur monument from its perch in the lush Menoreh Hills.
From open-sided yoga pavilions to wall-to-wall windows in the hillside villas, the hotel’s design makes the most of its million-dollar vista. Wake up to views of stone cupolas rising above the canopy on quiet mornings, soak up the scenery while languishing in rough-hewn rock baths at the spa, and glimpse the treetop canopy, birdlife, and distant mountains while cooling off in your villa’s private pool.
Either hiding from view behind dense walls of foliage or peeking out of the trees in clearings, each villa is a sophisticated, stylish escape. Some lean modern with minimalist spaces while others emote a distinct sense of place, adorned with traditional Balinese design and antique-style furnishings and decor. Each villa has a pool and outdoor area, and sizes range from intimate one-bedrooms for couples to spacious, family-friendly multi-rooms.
Made with local, seasonal ingredients from the region and the resort’s own organic garden, meals are best taken on outdoor terraces with sweeping mountain views. Set off to explore Borobudur, the world’s largest Buddhist temple (one of the best things to do in Indonesia), or venture along volcanoes on day excursions, with well-earned spa treatments upon your return. End a splendid day with al fresco drinks while the sun sets into the forest in a captivating display.
