Ijen Resort

East Java


This top-end resort, set in fertile grounds, has beautiful rooms with stone or timber floors, open-air bathrooms and attractive furnishings. From the figure-eight infinity pool, you can admire views out over the rice terraces to distant brooding volcanoes. If you can afford it, the resort is an ideal place to while away a few days in blissful peace.

There's a quality restaurant that serves local and Western food, and tours and transport can be fixed. The resort is about 25 minutes above Banyuwangi on the road up to Ijen.
