Desa Alamanis Resort Vila — Hotel in Java

The village really feels like a real village. Perfect for people who love something unique, natural, and cute, like playing in a mini village 💓

The vibe is calm and cool, though it can get a bit hot during the day. There’s AC in the room, hairdryer, basic amenities, fridge, TV, and water heater. But no working desk or study table.

Even though it looks simple like a real village, they really pay attention to the details. Each room has a small fence in front of it. They also add cute village vibes with tamarind drinks in the fridge, welcome drinks with boiled banana and sweet potato, and at 6 PM there are free snacks like serabi and sticky rice, plus an outdoor movie.

💓 At night, a staff member goes around in front of each “room house” offering free warm drinks like bajigur or bandrek.

💓 Even though there are lots of trees, it doesn’t feel scary at all. The paths have warm yellow lights and nice touches in front of the rooms.

Breakfast is pretty good. There’s an Indomie and fried rice corner included and made to order, traditional drinks, and tasty chicken porridge. But the coffee is just kopi tubruk.

GoFood and GrabFood still work here. The staff brings your food straight to your room without you having to ask. The service is friendly, fast, and helpful, even during the busy Eid season 💓

Tips: Better to bring a backpack or tote bag instead of a trolley suitcase so it’s easier for the staff to help carry your things because there are stairs around 200 meters. Bring an umbrella too.

❌️❌️❌️ Not really suitable for elderly people with leg problems, pregnant women, or toddlers. There are lots of stairs to the rooms, and the bathroom is semi-outdoor with steep steps and no handrail

Sadly, we already asked for a room that’s not too far because we brought our 70-year-old parent, but they gave us one of the farthest rooms in RT 5 with a steep outdoor bathroom that was slippery and had no handrail. Even though we got a free room upgrade, it made our family not want to stay there again

Suggestions / Input: Some areas, especially around the night market, outdoor movie area, and RT 4, need more lights. The paths there are a bit too dark and make it hard to see the way clearly. Since there are lots of small animals like snails, millipedes, and other creatures on the path, it's easy to accidentally step on them, which is both sad and dangerous because the path can...

We spent 3d2n in this resort. We love the design and concept. What we dont like is the way to our room. So far away down. We got RT 5. Though i like to workout, but walking up and down to our room with our stuffs felt a bit of a turn off. The room is clean, the floor so clean i dare to walk without any slippers. The bathroom so unique and clean, the vintage concept amazed us. When we checked in, the shower gel is empty and toilet tissue so thin they didnt provide the new one. We ordered soto ayam and rice for dinner day-2, for a hotel price and standard, i have to say we terribly disappointed with the soto. No taste at all, only glass noodle, a bit of slices of chicken, half boiled egg, beansprout and that's it. No traces of chives at all. We complained and they replace with clear soup of the soto. With a 50k something for a small bowl of soto ayam, that's embarrassing. Anyway, the STAFFS are all amazing, kind, friendly, helpful and attentive. They work happily and we love to see that. The pool has warm water but perhaps because of the sun. We love playing in the pool, the warung have very reasonable price for indomie and snacks. Love it. We also appreciate the jamu for welcome drink during our check in. Overall, we say this resort more suitable for honeymooners...

Stayed here for 1 day wasn’t enough to enjoy the atmosphere of living in a village. Village-style resort with 4-star service hotel!! The name of the room was also very unique, I got room no. RT4/11. Wat a cute room name! Around 4-5 PM, they got movie nite outdoor in one of their gardens. They gave complementary traditional cake snacks and coconut drinks that we can enjoy it in front of the campfire. There were some games that children too. But please don't forget to apply mosquito repellent cream. What's more interesting was at night around 10 o'clock above, they offered traditional drink called Bandrek, a traditional drink made from ginger, brown sugar and other spices. The staff walked around by ringing wooden gongs to offer this Bandrek. We felt exactly like living in a village. Btw 4 thumbs up for Mas Leo, one of the reception staff who helped us so much in booking 12 seats for additional breakfast for me...
