Think of a holiday, an escapade from the daily hustle and bustle. An island destination with fine powdery sand, crystal clear turquoise water and pristine beaches where the sun greets you warmly.
Picture this.
You don’t have to wait for airfare promotions nor endure a long coach ride for a beach retreat. In less than an hour’s ride from Singapore, the pace of busy urban life screeches to a halt as the ferry arrives at Bandar Bentan Ferry Terminal in Bintan.
A Holiday at Bintan Resorts
On the picturesque coast of the largest Riau island of Indonesia, relaxing beach front resorts hotels, restaurants and activity centres dotted the tropical shoreline facing the majestic South China Sea. Also known as Lagoi, Bintan Resorts cover the entire northern coast of Bintan with different styles of accommodation from rustic beachside chalets to family resort hotels and bungalows. For golfers, the unique golf destination boasts four designer golf courses nestled amidst the lush green rainforest without traffic noise and tall buildings looming in the distance.
While adrenaline junkies can try their hands on kayaking, jetskiing, wakeboarding, banana boat rides, go karting and ATV among others at the extensive sea sports facilities and activities centres, nature and heritage lovers can join discovery tours to meet the wildlife and indigenous folks. Discerning spa lovers will be spoilt for choice with a wide range of spa treatments follow by shopping and great dining experiences.
