Amanjiwo, Luxury resort hotel in Borobudur, Magelang, Indonesia.
This premium accommodation features 36 suites arranged in two crescent formations around a central rotunda, constructed with local coral-beige limestone and designed to resemble a large pillared temple overlooking the Menoreh Hills.
Established in 1997 by architect Ed Tuttle, this property opened as part of the Aman Resorts collection, positioning itself directly across from the 9th-century Buddhist monument Borobudur, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The hotel incorporates traditional Javanese architectural elements including wooden carvings, portraits of notable Indonesians, and daily Gamelan music performances, while offering cultural workshops such as batik-making classes and temple history lectures.
Suite rates range from $850 to $3,500 per night excluding taxes, with amenities including private pools in selected accommodations, spa services, airport transfers, and guided tours to nearby temples and villages.
Seven Garden Pool Suites feature private pools integrated into rice field settings, while the main swimming pool uses green tiles called hijau danau, creating a distinctive connection between luxury hospitality and agricultural landscapes.
