Sampireun - ᮞᮃᮙ᮪ᮕᮤᮛᮩᮔ᮪

“Sampireun” is a poetic word from the Sundanese language, traditionally spoken in West Java, Indonesia. Rooted in local wisdom, it carries the gentle meaning of “a place to stop by, to rest, and to refresh oneself.” More than a physical space, Sampireun reflects a philosophy of welcoming, where visitors are not just guests, but part of a shared life rhythm that honours nature, community, and simplicity.

With Sampireun Hideaway, we carry forward this timeless spirit; not as a name, but as a purpose. Nestled in the highlands of Garut, our sanctuary is designed to help you pause from the rush of modern life, and reconnect with the authenticity of culture and place.

Here, your journey is not only about rest, but about discovery.

We invite you to walk through endless green paddy fields, explore the steaming crater of Kamojang, and witness the beauty of handcrafted "Akar Wangi" traditions passed down through generations; from the rhythms of Calung music, to the grace of pencak silat, and the soulful stories behind every cup of herbal “Teh Kewer.”

Sampireun Hideaway is deeply committed to community-based tourism. Every visit you make directly supports local families, empowers traditional artisans, and helps preserve the cultural and environmental heritage of our homeland. This is not just about travel; it’s about belonging, about giving back to the land and people who make your journey meaningful.

So when you visit West Java, Indonesia, let Sampireun be your home between moments; a place where you’re not just stopping by, but becoming part of something enduring, something real.

Create your Journey with Sampireun Hideaway – your sanctuary of culture, nature, and calm.
