Amanjiwo, Indonesia
A hidden jewel at Java’s centre Amanjiwo rests in the shadows of the largest Buddhist temple complex in the world, Borobudur, which reopens to visitors from 1 March 2023.
Based on the original islanders’ homes, Aman Sveti Stefan’s Deluxe Cottages offer 60–100 square metres (645–1,076 square feet) of living space, affording guests a secluded getaway where space and privacy are found in abundance. Ideal for couples, the cottages’ king-size beds provide a sumptuous place to sleep and some feature separate living and dressing rooms. Paying homage to the traditional architecture, natural materials furnish the space, where a palette of earth colours creates a tranquil atmosphere in which to relax and reset.
