Banyan Tree Group’s new minimalist brand Garrya is continuing its global expansion with the launch of Garrya Bianti Yogyakarta on Indonesia’s island of Java.

Located on the banks of Denggung River in Gabugan Village, Garrya Bianti Yogyakarta encapsulates the area’s rich traditions and draws design inspiration from Javanese culture and from Yogyakarta’s iconic temple. The resort will feature 24 modern villas, a residential two-bedroom villa with a full-size swimming pool, gazebo, jacuzzi, and a spacious living room, as well as a signature Wellbeing Sanctuary Villa for the ultimate rejuvenating experience. Garrya Bianti Yogyakarta’s four-room 8lements Spa will specialize in indigenous wellness therapies rooted in Asian wisdom.

“Following the success of our first minimalist resorts under the Garrya brand, we are excited to bring our holistic approach to wellbeing and relaxation to the beautiful island of Java with the opening of Garrya Bianti Yogyakarta,” said Philip Lim, Senior Vice President, Head of Regional Operations and Group Specialist Services at Banyan Tree Group. “We look forward to welcoming travelers seeking a sense of seclusion and immersion into nature, with a keen curiosity about the rich cultural heritage and vibrant arts scene of Yogyakarta.”

In keeping with the current expansion pace, by 2025 Banyan Tree Group’s Garrya brand is poised to open four resorts in Vietnam – in Mu Cang Chai, Da Nang, Hoi An and Hoa Binh, and two in China – in Xianju and Yangcheng Lake.
