“Staycation in Yabbieyaku; home away from home, stellar meals, entertaining Mas/Pak Hodgkin.”
+The romantic, rustic, beautiful design of the bungalow (#2) and gardens; the wonderful food with organic vegetables and herbs from their farm (and quality meat and other ingredients from elsewhere) served elegantly; the breezy, serene garden seating at the restaurant filled with occasional birdsongs; the attentive, helpful, gracious and knowledgeable staff; the interesting modern designs of batik sarungs by local artists; and the incredibly fascinating owner, Dave Hodgkin whose NGO life ought to be dramatized by Netfix for many seasons.
−The mosquitoes which existed way before mankind and Yabbieyaku claimed the land. And the location, in a poor village, where there isn’t much beauty to explore or I didn’t try hard enough.

+Yabbiekayu Eco-Bungalows in Yogyakarta is a breathtaking masterclass in sustainable luxury, proving that mindful tourism never has to compromise on comfort. Tucked into the peaceful rice paddies of Tembi village, the resort breathes new life into restored heritage Javanese teak houses, utilizing brilliant passive-cooling architecture instead of energy-heavy air conditioning. From the stunning open-air stone baths to the organic paddock-to-plate dining sourced straight from their edible gardens, every detail is engineered with deep ecological integrity, including solar power, low-footprint water recycling, and a powerful social enterprise model that directly employs and empowers the local community. It is the ultimate, soul-nourishing sanctuary for conscious travelers seeking an authentic, deeply respectful connection to Java's rich culture and landscape.

“Fantástica y especial, es un lugar hermoso.”
+El lugar en si, es muy acogedor, tranquilo y diría ideal para una luna de miel, los desayunos son increíbles ya que todo es preparado con productos orgánicos y del jardin que ellos tienen. Es un lugar de ensueño y seguro volveríamos a elegirlo.
−Nada, todo estuvo perfecto.

+Un posto di grandissimo incanto a Giava, consigliatissimo! La struttura e’ un po’ discostata dal centro (affittate un motorino o spostatevi con grab/taxi) e avrete in cambio una struttura bellissima, con piccole casette in stile indonesiano, restaurate e decorate benissimo, con fontane e piante, immerse in un bellissimo giardino e anxhe un piccolo giardino privato. Il bagno e’ magnifico, all’aperto ma con doccia e vasca da cui guardare le stelle… insomma una esperienza splendida. colazione ottima e curata e cosi’ anche la cena. Dave e sua moglie, i proprietari sono davvero persone speciali ed e’ stato piacevolissimo parlare con loro e comprendere molte cose del paese e delle loro usanze. Un posto dove tornare!

“总之，这是一个乡下的传统小屋，如果你想体验乡下的生活可以来感受一下挺有趣的，如果你想享受五星级的干净，那就别选择。”
+传统爪哇式小木屋，非同寻常的体验。工作人员非常nice。早餐丰盛
−首先是蚂蚁虫子太多了，你必须得不介意这一点才行。一天我的床上有蚂蚁，我叫工作人员来帮忙，他们拿着杀虫剂，告诉我get used to it。酒店坐落在日惹的乡下，周围的村子没啥看头，不过打车去城市也就半个小时。屋子室外部分维护不是特别干净，浴缸我看了一眼很脏，全是蚂蚁。

“Geweldige rustige plek net buiten Yogya”
+Het personeel was zo vriendelijk, het ontbijt echt perfect en de bungalow hebben een rustgevend uitzicht over de rijstvelden. Een badkamer buiten is bijzonder en in het mega bad onder de sterren zitten helemaal.
−De moskee die vroeg begint, oordopjes in en verder slapen. Verder niets negatiefs.

“Een prachtig verblijf in Javaanse bouwstijl in een tropische tuin.”
+Dit verblijf voelde echt als een cadeautje. Een perfecte mix van comfort, luxe, passend in het landschap/ land qua bouwstijl, lekker eten en ontzettend vriendelijk personeel. De tuin, de buiten badkamer, het heerlijke ontbijt, het uitzicht op de rijstvelden, het bed; alles vonden wij even fijn.
−Alleen de hele harde gebedsoproep Van de nabijgelegen moskeeën. Vooral om 4.00 in de nacht. Als je dat niet gewend bent wordt je gegarandeerd wakker. Maar hier kan het verblijf niks aan doen en het is iets waar moeilijk aan te ontkomen is. Goede oordoppen meenemen dus.
