Wish it was Longer

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 June 2017
We stayed just one night at the Amata resort in order to view Borobudur. We really regretted not having a second night just to enjoy our lovely room and the nice ambience at the Amata. We staff was attentive and friendly. The food was good and artistically presented; kudos to the chef. And I found they helped with car hire and didn't gouge the price like hotels often do. I wish we'd been able to stay another day and just hang around the pool. It's a small resort so you will feel pampered. Although we were not right by Borobudur this didn't seem a disadvantage. We walked there the first night just to have a look from afar. They provided a free shuttle the next morning for us to join the sunrise tour.
Date of stay: June 2017
Room Tip: We had a deluxe room and it was very roomy and nice.

This was our second stay at Amata Borobudur - we enjoyed our first visit with them so much, we felt we had to come back again. The reason for our return stay can be summed up in two words - customer care. They have a great team working at the resort and nothing is too much trouble for them. All the staff, from the guys who clean and prepare the rooms so professionally, to the girls who serve the food with a smile, or work in reception, helping to organise day trips out, are friendly, polite and unfailingly kind. They all speak English and go out of their way to engage with their clients and make them feel special. The food is fantastic too - five course breakfasts, snacks during the day and evening meals all prepared with care and beautifully garnished - their chef works really hard and all the food is delicious. Amata is a place to relax and de-stress in beautiful surroundings - traditional bungalow accommodation, pretty, well-tended gardens and a glorious azure swimming pool. Highly recommended - a wonderful place to stay.

We travelled here with 3 kids (6, 10, 13). We stayed in the two luxury rooms which are joined by a verandah. Lovely rooms. The friendly staff were the highlight of our stay. They even helped fetch medicine when my Daughter had an ear ache. Nice pool, efficient pickup from airport and extensive breakfast. The restaurant is great for tasty and good quality evening meals. Nice little selection of gifts in reception.

It's about 3km from the temple, but they arrange a free shuttle. The staff can arrange a horse and cart village tour which was fun, or a car to tour the hills/drop you places.

Amata could benefit from supplying a list of other suggested activities for people to fill in their day once they've seen the temple. Just a suggestion though.

We stayed in a group of 14 people at this great Resort. A nice combination of rustic and modern cabins with everything you need, including wifi. Since we arrived, the staff was trying everything to make our stay very confortable and cozy. Everybody was very friendly. Although some of them didn't speak fluent english, they tried their best to solve any question. And if they couldn't, Clara was there to help all the time. Clara is simply what all hotels should have as Managers. My only concern is that they couldn't manage cold beer all the time for my thirsty group. And the side part of the swimming pool should have nice tiles instead of rustic cement.
