Rajaklana Resort and Spa

The resort is nice and vibes were great. However, the family villa I got was at the bottom of a hill so the long walk down and back up was a bit of a bummer. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the view in the morning from the balcony was nubbad... so I can't complain.

Finally, we arrived in Jogja. As it was the weekend and we didn't want to be in the middle of the crowd of the city, we tried to find a hotel in kind of in remote area. Well, too bad, out of our expectations, this hotel was full in capacity with a lot of kids. I didn't have many complaints regarding the room itself. The room is very spacious, traditional built, open-space bathroom, good AC, and good lighting inside the room as well. Water heater and water pressure were fine. For the wifi, it was hopeless, because we had to bear with non-wifi for our stay there. Thank God it was only 1 night. Actually they are 18 units in the hotel area. We were at Halmahera unit. Each unit has its own patio. However, since it is a traditional building with open space bathroom, we could hear neighbor's noise. Too bad, we had to listen the kid crying next door before our sleep at night and traffic noise that I didn't know if there was a road behind our unit. Breakfast was delivered to our room. The common area such as pool and sitting area are cozy with a lot of palm trees. Restaurant and spa room are in different location. The hotel offers shuttle for free to transport the guest from/to hotel and restaurant/spa room. We tried the massage in the spa room. It was a great experience. An open space facing to little forest with tons of trees. Just back to the nature while doing the couples massage. Restaurant is also an open space area. They have family cottages in this area with swimming pool as well. Guess this area is more suitable for guests coming with kids though. But, anyway, we were having good times with the massage though.

My experience at this hotel was far from relaxing. Despite booking a villa that was advertised as serene and tranquil, I was shocked to find that it was located right in the middle of a noisy children's playground. The constant noise and commotion completely ruined any hope of a peaceful getaway. The misrepresentation of the surroundings in the pictures is unforgivable, and I'm extremely disappointed. Since we were not able to come to a resolution, we decided to leave the property. 250 euro in the bin.

Nice but noisier than you would expect Nice location overlooking the valley. Rooms comfortable however very noisy during the day with goat noise and then in the morning with roosters. Breakfast not included even though it says it is on the booking page
