Founded by Yozua and Dewi Makes, the collection draws on regional architecture, gardens, and the landscape to give each stay its own character.

History
Plataran’s early addresses connect Indonesian buildings and landscapes: a centuries-old joglo in Kerobokan, a retreat near Borobudur, and a beach setting in Komodo. Made Wijaya’s gardens at the Kerobokan villa sit within that history, bringing the grounds into the experience of the house. As the collection grew, these connections to architecture, nature, and place remained a common thread.
