There is little reason why you want to use aluminium frame with a wooden door. If you worry about rust, wood will get damaged with moisture too. And aluminium frame cannot support heavy wooden door and you have to install the cheap low quality wooden door which will not last. Stick to metal frame should be fine.

For my case, it's because the bedroom door is adjacent to the toilet and sometime water from the toilets get splashed out to the floor, in contact with the door frame. Door is few cm off the floor and opened most of the time, so avoided the direct contact with water.

i'm going with metal frame and looking for some water repellent stuff to apply to the bottom of the metal door frame on top of existing paint. any suggestion?

Yes just go ahead with metal frame. It is cheap and widely available. Just put two or three coats of good quality rust protection paint will. Seal the lowermost part with silicone to repel water. It will last a long time.
