Rumah Dharma Boutique Villa

We really enjoyed our stay here. A special thank you to the two wonderful guys working there — they were incredibly attentive, friendly, and spoke perfect English. One of them even took us on a bicycle ride around the area, showing us some beautiful viewpoints and taking us to a lovely local restaurant. It was such a thoughtful touch and really made our stay special. The food was good too, and overall we had a great experience. Thanks again to the wonderful staff — we really appreciated your hospitality and would happily stay here again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Off the beaten track and very quiet. Helpful Staff and excellent food. Highly recommend

Staff gentilissimo e molto attento. Ci siamo sentiti a casa

È stato senza dubbio l'hotel migliore dove abbiamo soggiornato nella nostra vacanza in Indonesia. È un'oasi di pace e tranquillità. Lo staff è stato gentilissimo, la stanza era spaziosa e molto bella. Raggiungere il tempio con le bici in dotazione è stata un'esperienza bellissima. Lo consiglio vivamente!

L'accueil, la grande taille des chambres, la propreté des lieux, le calme, l'emplacement, la sérénité, la qualité des plats...

Very nice place, clean, very good food, the team was very helpful answered all my questions and helped me to organize my trip to the hotel from the airport and next trip perfectly. They have bicycles which can just be used and make getting to the magnificent Borobudur even easier, than walking for 15-20 min. Super pittoresk and quiet location in the midst of rice fields, while still in the city but off the main road.

All was amazing. The rooms, the pool, the wooden structure… amazing.

Watch out: there are 2 Rumah Dharma places and Grab only recognizes the other one, not the Boutique one

A very nice, clean, peaceful place near Borobudur. We booked Borobudur Sunrise, and this place is 5 min drive away from the entrance. After the sunrise tour, we spent time to have coffee and tea in a peaceful nice area. Saw that we can also rent bikes there. Really recommended!

Pretty, clean, peaceful place near, very friendly staff!

De sfeer en architectuur zijn prettig. Het personeel is heel aardig en behulpzaam op een nonchalante manier. De kamer is ruim en comfortabel. Het eten is heerlijk

We hadden wat moeite om de ingang te vinden met de navigator. En dat er een hotel is met vrijwel dezelfde naam helpt niet als locals je willen assisteren 😉

Very nice! Great location and free bikes!

Juste à côté de Borobudur en 10 mn à vélo qui sont mis à disposition. Arrivée par un petit pont au milieu des rizières. Magnifiques chambres tout comfort et belle piscine pour se rafraîchir. Les petits déjeuners et les dîners sont sublimes - parmis les meilleurs que nous ayions eu durant nos 3 semaines à Java. Personnel chaleureux.

It was a peaceful and absolutely comfortable stay. The property is located in the middle of rice paddy so the mornings and evenings siting by the courtyard is so pleasant and peaceful.

The rooms by normal standards are quite spacious. For such big rooms there should be 2 ACs in a room. Ours had 1. Afternoon can get quite hot and sunny, and 1 ac is not sufficient to cool the room.

Sehr freundliches Personal, sehr ruhig gelegen.

Family room was very large Small pool was refreshing Staff needs to take initiative but they were kind

AC units are not powerful enough to cool rooms. Staff sit around smoking while many things need attention: lounge chairs around the pool are dirty, guests need pool towels, etc. The room was clean but the wooden headboard was full of dust. I don’t think it has ever been cleaned. The last step to get in and out the pool is so high it might be difficult with people with mobility difficulties. The meals provided are way too expensive for what they give: 7 tiny skewers of chicken for 3 adults, rice, tofu, and vegetables(3 different kinds) Definitely not worth the 175000 IDR per person fixed price. Close to Borobudur by car, not by walking.

Struttura da sogno, tra le risaie, arredata con molta cura. Dotata di tutti i confort. Staff gentilissimo e molto disponibile a dare indicazioni. La colazione ottima. La posizione è comoda per raggiungere il tempio di Borobudur attraverso una scorciatoia a piedi che la reception è pronta ad indicarvi. Abbiamo avuto dei problemi con i biglietti d’ingresso al tempio e il ragazzo della reception ci ha accompagnati alla biglietteria offrendosi per un aiuto. Grazie ancora! Peccato di averci trascorso solo una notte.

Beautiful location in my opinion. Calm peaceful and serene. Staff were fabulous and friendly. Option to use their bicycle and take yourself off to see temples and other beautiful finds.

Personally everything was exactly what I was looking for.

Unfortunately I took a gamble on the street food and paid the price, which knocked me out for 1/3 days I was in Borobudur. Fortunately, I was staying at Rumah Dharma Boutique, probably the most comfortable place in the area to slowly and feverishly perish. Fantastic location, peaceful, welcoming, and comfortable. If you’re thinking of staying here, you have a good intuition.

A arquitetura do local é belíssima! Banho bom, piscina boa. Há bicicletas de qualidade disponíveis aos hóspedes. O motorista (Guntur) foi muito gentil e agradável.

Não há frigobar, chaleira para café, secador de cabelos nem tv no quarto. Não há tomada próxima do espelho banheiro. Local de banho aberto, sem proteção (molha ao redor). Somente 2 toalhas de banho são disponíveis. Se quiser toalhas de rosto, tem que solicitar. Café da manhã com pouquíssimas opções para hóspedes ocidentais. Não há cardápio disponível (você não sabe quanto irá pagar num suco, por exemplo). Não há bebidas alcoólicas, somente cerveja. Grande dificuldade para agendar passeios, demorou 24 hs para obter uma resposta. Somente 4 espreguiçadeiras na piscina. Não há um lobby, se quiser ficar sentado, só na área do restaurante. Falta profissionalismo na gestão do hotel. Uma pena, pois o local é muito bonito…

Очень приятное место, дружелюбные владельцы! Красивые, большие, качественно отделанные номера, красивый дизайн, нежное постельное бельё. Великолепный, чистый комфортный бассейн Очень вкусные завтраки, великолепный кофе. Максимум комфорта! 100% рекомендую!

Недостатков нет

Superfreundliches Personal, das sich bemüht hat, alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Köstliches Essen, ruhige Lage, ein geräumiges Zimmer und Badezimmer. Toll, dass gut gepflegte Fahrräder zur Verfügung standen.

Lo staff è stato meraviglioso! Cena da provare e gentilezza incredibile. Vicinissimi al tempio di borobudur. Potete raggiungerlo con le biciclette che vi danno gratuitamente. Esperienza da fare!

staff very pleasant and helpful excellent facilities very clean beautiful ambience

Hotel bersih , asri dengan udara segar Kamar cukup luas dan nyaman Staf sangat membantu dan ramah

Tempat sampah diluar kamar tidak ada

Tout, incroyable, personnel très gentil et serviable, très souriant, endroit calme et tranquille. Vélo à disposition pour aller en ville et voir le temple. L’endroit est vraiment superbe. Nous recommandons +++

Quiet and pretty environment. Simple and basic facility, but it was perfect for a hub to come back to after activities. Breakfast and dinner were prepared upon request. For dinner, a fixed menu was prepared freshly in the kitchen. It was delicious.

There are a few RDarma, and this could be confusing for the TukTuk or car driver. So make sure you know which one.

Het personeel was erg zorgzaam en lief. Het eten was elke dag weer een feest. Hele ruime kamer. Letterlijk om de hoek bij de Borobodur, ideaal.

Very nice. Quiet and good environment

A bit far from tourist area

Villa pool facing.low season so very quiet most times.the design of the room.the pool

-nothing-

The room was spacious and very clean, and the beds were super comfy The staff were quite helpful and friendly The interior design was cool, and the breakfast was nice It's in the middle of the fields, really nice surroundings

Nothing

A proximité de Borobudur Temple (20 mn à pied). Très bel hôtel calme et confortable. Belle piscine. Petit déjeuner varié et très bon. Au dîner excellente cuisine indonésienne. Personnel très aimable et aux petits soins.

Peut-être quelques points d'amélioration : il manquait une bouilloire même si on nous a aimablement apporté de l'eau chaude et une théière.... Une table et une chaise auraient été appréciées dans la chambre

The location was fantastic, a short walk to town and the temple. The local children were on school holidays and would fly their kites from the road across the rice paddies, it was great as we would talk to them when out walking. We were the only guests and it was a wonderful peaceful break on our holiday in Java.

More meal options or even access to a kitchen and refrigerator would be great.

Breakfast was freshly made , Tasty Enjoyable & was adequate. location is very exotic with paddy & greenery around. Was something unique for city person.

In shower area curtains sd be provided to avoid splashing of shower water on floor which can get slippery & cause one to slip.

Amazing hotel, the staff were very welcoming and friendly(very amazing with helping us plan day trips), the location was perfect with close proximity to Borobudur temple, they offer dining (local dishes) which was delicious, and the overall property had a very tranquil atmosphere

Nothing , it was perfect

This place was great. The location was in a bit of a village-feel area, not long from the local market, which we liked a lot. It was nice having some rice/chilli fields next to the hotel, and local kids came to fly their kits on the driveway at dusk. The hotel guys gave us a quick lift to the temple on their motorbikes, to save our daughter walking the 15 minutes to the entrance. (Note that the temple entrance moved in April, although it was not well documented in the internet in June 2025). The rooms were big and nice. The breakfast area and pool were also nice.

Just a note, the place was more beautiful than we expected, and we wonder if maybe the photos could be redone to get the feeling across more?

What an amazing experience! Extremely helpfull and very professional staff who helped us with everything.The dinner was star worthy, amazing flavours, a whole and special experience. Our best food we had in our one month travel in Indonesia. The room is splendid, architecture is divine! We felt like kings. Gunder was our driver, he is also very recommended! Also, the most important tip: visit Borobudur center and not just the temples, that was for us the best experience, even better then the temple, the people of Borobudor with an amazing big heart so friendly and genuine.So go visit the center, the market is very close.

Great location - walking distance to the Borobudur temple. Free bike hire. Tasty breakfast and dinner. Helpful staff.

It's beautifully designed and finished, with just six 6 or 7 spacious 1-bedroom villas around a pool and dining area. The design takes inspiration from the nearby Borabodur temple, which is just 10 minutes away on a bicycle, or 5 mins on the back of a scooter. Excellent cooking from the young chef, who makes everything to order, with lots of local dishes available. The location is quiet and peaceful - except for the regular call to prayer blasting from four or five nearby mosques every couple of hours.

It's as if they ran out of money after building the place and couldn't afford to fit it out properly. There's no chair or table in the room, no kettle or mini-fridge/mini-bar. The bedding is cheap and mismatched. No kettle is a problem for English tea drinkers, because the black tea was weak and lukewarm. They use hot water from a thermos, which is fine for green tea or jasmine tea, but useless for English black tea with milk. If they don't want kettles in rooms, maybe they could have a communal tea area with boiling water available. Disappointing, because while room rates are reasonably priced, it's not inexpensive. And odd, because they have two other, larger properties close by, so they're not new to hospitality for international guests.

Beautiful location in rice fields, free bikes, spacious and clean villas, artistic woodwork. A true Indonesian gem. A beautiful pool to relax in the heat. An amazing staff 100% dedicated to making your stay as enjoyable as possible. The set daily menu/ meals were fantastic and for a really good price

Nothing. Everything was great

Nice property, professional staff. Very pleasant stay, will come back if in the area.

Quite location in rice fields, free bike rental, spacious and clean Villas, artistic wood work, sculptures and fountains, and beautiful pool to relax in the heat. Very delicious breakfast and dinner with authentic Indonesian food. Lovely staff, 100% committed to make our stay comfortable. They advised us well organized trips, transfers and laundry. A true indonesian luxury holiday experience.

Tiles on walkways get slippery during the rainy season.

The set daily menu/meal is fantastic. For a really good price. Compared to Bali prices.

The rooms are very basic. Could have had more bed linen. And maybe daily cleaning..?

A stunning, cozy boutique hotel, away from the roads, in a quiet place, surrounded by rice fields. The staff is very friendly, helps with all issues: from washing clothes to buying tickets to the Borobudur Temple. The hotel offers delicious lunches or dinners in the buffet format of national dishes. This is a great opportunity to get acquainted with the cuisine of the island of Java.

The location is more than perfect. Close to Borobudur temple. The temple is about a 15-minute bike ride from the villa. They have push bikes that can be used for free by the guests. The villa is also about 15 minutes walk from the traditional market. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had dinner at the hotel, which was fantastic.

Awesome location close to Borobudur but next to post fields; quiet and convenient,

Could do with a desk in the room, it’s a bit spartan.

The staff was very friendly and personable. They were also helpful in arranging rides and helping to find the temple. The breakfast and dinner were very tasty. The close location to Borobudur Temple made it very convenient to visit.

Nothing. Everything was great.

Picturesque location by a padi field, yet easily walking/cycling distance to the main town centre and Borobudur. Very nice young staff.

Exclusive, far from hustle and bustle, exotic, serene, awesome bathroom, nice swimming pool, friendly staff. Great for those looking for a quiet accommodation with a traditional Javanese feel.

- !! Upon arriving, my pillowcase had visible dirt and dead bugs. - At night, it’s too dark outside. - Got bamboozled by the villa windows. At a glance, they looked like one-way glass (people inside could look out, but people outside couldn’t look in). We got changed, etc without closing the curtains. Turned out, they weren’t one-way - people could look inside through the windows. - It seems most staff were still in training - we had to peer into the kitchen to ask for breakfast. It felt awkward and unprofessional. There should be staff on standby around the dining area ready to take orders. We had a nice stay nonetheless.

Comfortable, beautiful and simple with a great pool. Tranquility at night with only sounds of nature.

Nothing.

The staff were friendly and the breakfast was great. We had the whole place to ourselves and there were little pavilions that we can chill and have dinner in. Very relaxing atmosphere. Coffee was great!

There's limited food options.

I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Rumah Dharma Boutique, and it was truly a memorable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the serene and peaceful atmosphere of the villa. The design is a beautiful blend of traditional and modern touches, creating a cozy yet luxurious ambiance. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests or offer local recommendations. The villa itself was spotless and spacious, with all the amenities I could ask for. I especially loved the pool and lush garden, which made for a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The location is also ideal, tucked away in a quiet area yet close enough to enjoy nearby attractions. The personalized service and tranquil setting made my stay feel special and rejuvenating. If you’re looking for a peaceful, boutique getaway with top-notch service, Villa Rumah Dharma Boutique is the perfect choice. I would definitely return!

Do not have a table to work, no table or bench to put luggage, no boiling of hot water (need to walk to service counter), no supply of tea bag or coffee, no TV (luckily got free wifi), swimming pool is very small...No recommendation on tourist spots by the Villa. Luckily we met a good driver that is kind enough to bring us around.

Very nice stay, in the middle of the nature. We were the only guests and our room had view on the pool. Very good breakfast. We could use a bicycle to go to Bromo (only 10min away). We highly recommand this stay!

Nothing

The room is big and very comfortable, the bed was huge. The pool is also really nice to enjoy peacefully in the afternoon. Perfect to visit Borobudur and relax.

Everything was perfect

Very spacious, clean and beautiful. Quite near to everything yet I wasn't waken up by the mosques sound blast at 4am.. Well located or soundproofing. Recommend it

Amazing property and amazing location !! The staff were very friendly and helpful !! The customer support is 24/7 !! The food is amazing !! The bathroom looks stunning !! The whole place is very clean, cozy and a must visit. This place is a 10 out of 10. Very close to Borobudur ( right across the street ) but in a quiet and calm environment. The facilities were many, they were free and amazing ! Recommend it and will stay here again next time we visit Java

Everything. The atmosphere is perfect and very relaxing. Perfect strategic location for visiting borobudur temple. The food was amazing and the staff were very attentive to my needs when ever wanted. Highly recommended!

There is nothing I didn't like about this place.

Superb comfortable and large room in a quiet environment, in the middle of the rice fields. By renting a scooter you can visit the surroundings easily. Available bicycles to go for a ride in the morning is very appreciable. 10 min walking to Borobudur temple entrance. Excellent breakfast with many choices and delicious Indonesian sweets. Dinner was also excellent, prepared by the chef with a lot of attention. A big bravo to the whole staff for their availability, great attention to our confort and advice throughout our stay, specially Zarah, Irgi and Joko. They played a big role in making our stay very pleasant. Recommended 100%!

A little bit more attention on the cleaning of the room as mentioned would make the stay even more perfect 😉

All was perfect and beyond expectations. We stayed for only one night but it was really good. Welcome when arriving, the rooms and the whole accomodation and setting, breakfast and lunch. It was all perfect. Staff is really helpful and friendly. We booked the cycle tour which was really nice followed by Borobudur. I would recommend it, as it brings you to nice spots.

Nothing

Fantastic ! ...Pitty that were only two nights. The boys there ( the hosts) were fantastic, also give us the option for an indonesian dinner. It was tasty and interesting. Also very tasty the breakfast -some indonesian sweets absolutely amazing. About the location - it was near Borobudur, so we take a walk and enter the gate near the souvenir shops. The room was practically a house with a huge bedroom and huge bathroom. They have also pool , a dinning area , a relaxing place, bicycles for rent and rice field ....at the gate.

a noise at the bathroom , when flushing the toilet. And some ants at the entrance...but this is nature .

Extremely nice staff, excellent food, both for dinner and breakfast

Futility, Free Breakfast and paid dinner are exceptional,

Beautiful villa, quiet and near to Borobudur

It will be nice have a kettle inside the room.

Pretty close with Borobudur area, we can reach by walking. The location is well designed and neat. The area is cool and close to rice fields. The room feels like a private villa (one room/building). Free to use the bicycle. The staff is very good, informative and very helpful. We can enjoy breakfast in the gazebo with natural views. Property photos are accurate to the real one.

Does not have hair dryer and slippers.

Pretty new and beautiful villa with Java decoration style and surrounded by rice filed. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. You cant imagine how quiet is the place, and the Borobudur temple is just five mins walk from the villa. The breakfast is very delicious. We really enjoyed the stay.

It's a brand new Villa of Rumah Dharma. The room is very spacious and clean. But the ceiling decoration and paint color is not to my liking. Maybe need to put extra table and sofa/chair for guest to chill in the room? The swimming pool is very nice and breakfast is great.

The location. A bit difficult to find. It's nice and quiet, not far from the main road, but signage is needed.

Nice, clean, and quite place to stay.

None

Stuffs are very kind and smart, and they helped me a lot. I could spend great stay there. Location is so good and it is calm at night. I wanted to stay much more!

Great location, literally 10min walk from Borodbudur entrance and a good night market in the evenings. Quiet and scenic location among the rice paddies and only a few rooms around the pool so super chilled. Dinner and breakfast were both simple but delicious, and the staff were helpful. Free bikes to use was great.

If they invested in keeping the bikes in better condition (a pump would help) and a couple of kids bikes it would be great. Also would recommend they consider getting a bit more capability to arrange tours in the local area for their guests.

Excellent breakfast. Brand new, beautiful rooms. Excellent helpful and friendly staff. The dinner was very good also, with several dishes of local produce.

There a a few things that are potential safety issues. 1. The tiled floors in the bathroom are beautiful, but slippery when wet 2. There is a raised strip of wood on the floor between the bathroom and bedroom which is a trip hazard. 3. The stairs up to the dining area are black colored so difficult to see at night. Someone could fall down them.
