“I am very satisfied staying at Baobab Resort with all the very unique amenities.”
When we were searching for a unique place to stay in Indonesia for our next visit to the country, we discovered Baobab Safari Resort. It is an African Savanna-inspired resort on the slopes of Mount Arjuno in Taman Safari Prigen in East Java.
Baobab Safari Resort surprised us in many ways. During our stay, we explored the jungle and had a great time interacting with the safari animals. It’s not often that you get to enjoy a posh resort and have wildlife encounters at the same time. Families with kids will definitely love this place like we did. Who wouldn’t like waking up to the view of zebras, giraffes, antelopes, and more animals you usually see in the wild? Simply being surrounded by these creatures is a privilege for all ages.
Aside from spending our days feeding the giraffes for free, we enjoyed swimming in the resort's infinity pool. But the best part of it was that we saw some animals roam freely around the area. The nature lover in us delighted and marvelled at the grandiose beauty of Mount Arjuno, too. We’d say that staying at Baobab Safari Resort was truly one for the books, and we recommend it for those who love both nature and luxury.

Escape the busy weekday life. Start your mornings with a peek of the Arjuno Mountain from your Deluxe Room balcony instead. Baobab Safari Resort's Deluxe Room has enough space to move around. It’s still spacious even when your suitcases and other valuables are on the floor. The cosy ambience of the room is in line with the ambience of the whole resort with earth colours dominating the entire place. The theme bleeds from the wooden furniture to the marble tiles of the bathroom. Pendant lamps on both sides of the bed also give off a glamorous style of camping in the jungle.

What is better than having a balcony in your room for your coffee session? For us, it's when you get up close with the animals from your room! Guests staying in the Deluxe Safari room don’t need to go out of the building to watch the safari animals. You might not realise it at first, but one of the giraffes could just be waiting to meet you from outside the terrace. Just try not to let them reach for your coffee or drinks from the mini bar!

It is pretty common to find the giraffes fed by guests in zoos and safaris all over the world. But, we did it for free in Baobab Safari Resort. They even joined us for breakfast on the deck! Close encounters with meerkats are encouraged as well in the sanctuary. Guests can feed the affectionate animals every day. What we liked the most about Baobab Safari Resort is that even if the animals freely roam around, the grounds are not smelly at all!
During the weekends, Baobab Safari Resort holds Night Walking and Storytelling activities. Night Walking is an educational program in Baobab Safari Resort. In this activity, guests can spot the night creatures in the resort only with a flashlight in hand.
Aside from night walking, storytelling over a bonfire is also a fun activity best enjoyed by the kids. It is an excellent way to cap off your fun-filled adventurous weekend night. Parents may then skip reading children’s bedtime stories before lights are turned off. It's like going to a jungle camp but with much comfort and style.
The Taman Safari Prigen wherein guests can find the Baobab Safari Resort covers a land area of around 860 acres. It is the biggest safari in Southeast Asia. Guests of the luxury resort get exclusive access to Taman Safari Prigen. 2000 animals await joiners of the wild Safari Adventure.
Taman Safari Prigen does not only provide Safari Adventure to guests. There are also other activities like elephant interaction and even swimming with the dolphins. The experience is both fun and educational. That’s the reason why the event is suited to both kids and their parents.
Baobab Safari Resort is living up to the standards of being a place for postcard-perfect photos since you’ll always have the Arjuno Mountain as the backdrop of your photos in certain spots of the resort. You should also know that the Baobab tree is a tree that grows in the drier parts of Madagascar. Given this, the resort lobby where a replica of the Baobab tree welcomes each guest, is a must-see. Don’t forget to take photos with your family and friends by the infinity pool with the savanna in the background.
