I've been there alone, for two days, I must say that I was surprised by the quality and the situation of this little resort. I was looking for a getaway place, somewhere I just can relax. Villa Sumbing Indha is that place. Great view on the Sumbing volcano, the paddy fields all around and 10mn drive from Magelang city. The... More

Wasn't quite sure what to expect from this place as I chose it purely from the reviews here but was pleasantly surprised. Perfect for a quiet (as in non-city) getaway, the villa is 1.5 hours from Yogyakarta airport to the north, actually going pass Borobudur (which was the main reason for my visit) next to the city of Magelang right...

Very charming hotel with a pleasant staff in a lovely countryside environment. Spacious rooms in local style, nice private terrace outside with comfortable furniture, beautiful garden, XL swimming pool, good food from the restaurant. We loved the back to basic attitude of the owners, although they created a that can meet modern comfort standards. Also the trips they offer, aswell... More

What a relief to get out of Jogyakarta and be in the tranquil countryside! We chose Villa Sumbing on the recommendation of other travelers and we were really happy! It is a beautiful small boutique hotel with only a few rooms, set in the lush countryside about a half hour from Borobudur, the largest and most impressive Buddhist temple in... More

My wife and I were drawn to this hotel for its country charm, well-rated cuisine, and promise of peace of mind. Only the first of these was fulfilled, as described by others. The food offerings were far from being French, as the French owner doesn't cook and his local staff know nothing about French cuisine. The meal choices and quality... More

We travelled from Surabaya by train (much better than travelling by road) and were picked up in Yogyakarta by a driver from the villa. We stopped off at Prambanan the Hindu temples on the way to the villa and then relaxed in the pool before dinner that evening. The next day we headed off to see the Borobudur and followed... More

The hotel is small and very remote. The staff is very helpful and the owners bent over backwards to make our stay special. We were met at the airport as arranged by the hotel and the driver suggested a detour to see an amazing Hindu site (we went to see Borobudur so this was a bonus) then took us to... More

We spent 3 nights early October at Villa Sumbing, where we had booked a standard room. The driver picked us up at Solo airport, and it took us approx. 3hrs to reach the hotel, that is in the middle of nowhere (but this was our choice). It is a very quiet and very nice place, amidst the rice fields (although,... More

This hotel is situated at a very nice location on the slopes of mount Sumbing near a hamlet called Bandegon. It is however difficult to find, especially because the map on the hotel's website is not fully correct. For those of you with GPS in the smartphone or Ipad these are the coordinates: S 07-27'-14" E 110-09'-24" situated on the... More
