I had an amazing stay at the resort. During my stay in May 2018, there's a snorkeling and kelong visit at just 350k IDR per pax, the place is fun and the scene is amazing! The breakfast provided by the resort is above average but they provide very good lunch! While the activities and food may be slightly pricy but they are of quality and there's some treasure in this resort's vicinity.
To the left of the resort (walk out of the resort and turn left), 5 minutes walk will get you a restaurant that sells very good seafood. We have had an awesome 2 person meal with tons of seafood at just 190k IDR with some Bintan beer. Recommend to go at night.
To the right of the resort (walk out of the resort and turn right), 15 minutes walk will get you Bintan Laguna Restaurant And Resort. they provide very good massage at just 250k IDR.
Overall, i will recommend someone to stay here if they wish to have a nice get away - away from town.

Very relaxing place for a vacation. Also when the sea tide is low, you can walk to small island. Nice experience!

I love this place. Just perfect for a relaxed getaway. The service you get is incredible with all the activities well thought out and planned. Snorkelling was lovely near the kelong where many coral and fish could be seen. The mangrove firefly tour was enchanting. Lovely low tide walk and crystal blue waters. All good is freshly prepared and very tasty. The seafood BBQ is delicious and what was ordered a la carte was also great whether western or local. Beautiful chill spots set up with hammocks, loungers and just nice grass patches. Again, shout out to the magical staff especially Willy doing activities and Dery at the restaurant. Lovely wonderful people. Suggest to bring baby oil along to get some of the tar spots off from the water if you do go in.

Peaceful place. Far from everywhere. Slightly run down. Very limited breakfast items to choose from. Spacious rooms overlooking the ocean. Had to carry our luggage to the 2nd floor ourselves, no staff assigned to do so. No lifts either.
Walk through the water to reach the small island across the resort in low tide was the highlight of the stay there. Most of the staff was all smiles and friendly.
Make sure you inform them a day in advance your travel plans else they'll not arrange any pick up from the ferry terminal. Totally unreasonable but that's the way it is. You'll have to spend S$50 equivalent to reach the resort.

Loved it! Quiet, peaceful, and had a wonderfully intimate, private feel to it because it is smaller than most resorts. Though it's not geared toward children, my 3-year-old had a great time, and we felt very welcome having him here. We had several delicious dishes at their restaurant, and their breakfast spread went beyond our standards. We also loved that we had options to do activities like the mangrove tours that they offer - options like these allowed us to have the relaxation of a resort while also getting a taste of local life, which is a big plus for my husband and me. Lastly, everyone on staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating! They seemed like they enjoyed their work environment and enjoyed working together - another big plus for us, as we prefer spending our dollars on businesses that are good to their employees. I would also add that the staff took great care of us, and they were super sweet with our kiddo! This was our first time visiting, but it will not be our last!! We are grateful to everyone there for our stellar experience!!!

Good for a relaxing getaway. Don't expect activities as it's pretty secluded. Plus point is it's weekend market in the resort compounds which serves up great Street food that's light on the pockets.

This place is a hidden gem. The spa treatments are wonderful in a picturesque setting.
Pool villa rooms are amazing with private jacuzzi pool and waterfront views.
The staff are polite and endearing.
A perfect place to relax.

Very friendly staff and service..
It's a very interesting beach as it drains during low tide and you can walk to a mini island that you would need to rise a boat there otherwise.
Not much to go around outside the villa, but the villa has a full array of activities to fill your days!
Chilling around in the pool or sun tanning is always an option too!

Good place to get out for weekend. Nice location, friendly staffs, sea sport activities, games, sea front view room.
Ian Phone (04/07/2017 15:05)
Nice place with well maintained and comfortable rooms. The staff are the real star: they are well trained, friendly and they all speak English. Only down side is the long commute from the ferry terminal and the proximity to a main road.

Excellent get away from city life. Quiet secluded pte beach resort all to yourself . Very friendly and efficient service. A local Seafood restaurant is just walking distance away. A great place to rest and relax only....and .no.....there is no shopping available...you will need to get to city centre for that.
Petri Riikonen (19/06/2017 12:11)
Quite a nice resort in Bintan, not too far from Singapore. The prices in the resort are quite high. The food was quite good in my opinion, had some lobster and also the BBQ Stingray was tasty. There are some activities that can be done at the resort and the sea water around it is clean. Nice weekend stay, but personally I wouldn't stay much longer as I would get bored.

The most amazing time had here! All the people who work at this little piece of paradise, just amazing! They all also have such a respect for each other always smiling incredible service, incredible food, incredible place, pristine facilities, just heaven!
Thank you to all of you who have given us more special moments to add to our memory bank.
Totally recommend you take the extra drive to this part of the Island you will not regret it!
See you again soon!

Smooth check in-out.. Friendly staff.. You may go far to the sea while wait for sun rising.. Clean and well maintained swimming pool
Paul Hughes (09/03/2017 11:58)
Beautifully chilled and relaxed resort with great sporting facilities. The kite surfing here is exceptional with smooth seas but a fantastic on shore wind. Ideal for learning!!
Travis Morrow (08/02/2017 10:13)
Not really a fan of black mold in my hotel rooms. I don't think this is too much to ask, especially at a resort. The air conditioner leaked water in the room and the electrical in this place is something else.
Staff was very friendly... certainly the best part of the resort.
The van ride from the ferry terminal is risky.

Pricy resort with minimum facility

"A Tranquil Getaway. Literally.”
While in Singapore and having received mixed reviews of trekking to Bintan - we decided to find out for ourselves. I did a lot of research and read plenty of reviews of this and other resorts. Especially if comparing the time and effort given in going to this trip versus simply taking a flight to Phuket or Bali. While you need a visa to enter Indonesia - if you are just visiting for vacation you can get a visa on arrival. Since this entire trip is not for those with weak stomaches. It is an hour ferry ride (from Tanah Merah Ferry - which is close to Changi Airport), and this ride could get ugly.. I have witnessed first hand from our ferry ride beginning to end those excited passengers pre-boarding through mid to end of the ride where everyone had little sick bags and those fleeing in and out of washrooms. No exaggeration, however, it could have been that one ride was filled with those with weak stomaches, or the ride was just unusually bumpy - because the ride back from Bintan Island was not as bad and far less people feeling sick. So it's a 50/50 gamble.
The resort itself, is just peaceful and remote. This resort isn't like your other typical pool and beach grandiose resorts, if this is what you were/are expecting, you will be displeased and disappointed.
This resort has got some unique traits that you will encounter only if you have travelled to some of the most remote parts around the world. Only then will you truly appreciate this resort for where and what it is.
The resort's ground is beautiful, well-maintained, and the view is just breathtaking, and depending on the weather and time of day, the water actually dries out to mid-sea but the water level climbs back to shore by evening, but it's fairly shallow for some nice romantic walks.
There really isn't a "beach" if you are wanting white soft sands, or a "pool" to lounge by. There are some lounge chairs if you want to get a tan.
The resort does not have many rooms either, the resort's website is actually quite helpful and accurate, so do check out the rooms and its packages that they offer.
We took the Romantic Spa package; which included 150 minute of spa time, dinner, breakfast, but also the ferry and land rides (a piece of mind if you don't want to worry about hailing cabs, etc.,) - we booked directly with the resort itself, we booked it online but called the number provided via their site, and they were extremely helpful and had a quick turn around time with everything. The booking was seamless.
The Spa was the highlight of the trip of course, the staff and masseuse were professional and friendly.
The food was good, they have decent bbq seafood sets, the chill crab was spicy and tasteful.
The staff are friendly and helpful. They have mini activities for a decent price, so do give them a try. I do recommend the boat ride and snorkelling as those were the only ones we were able to squeeze in.
It was a simple 2 day 1 night quick mini getaway we wanted at the very last minute. It was worth the trek (despite all the contrary and reviews we had read) - bring a book, iPad, and just relax by enjoying the sounds of the sea, it is really like no other. Go to the spa, walk around the waters, and enjoy a nice cold bottle of Indonesia's local beer (Bintang), eat some seafood and get those ants out of your pants. And if you are the type that just cannot relax, there is a mini area that has a pool table, magnet darts, and karaoke.
Maybe it was the remoteness of where we were, or that it was an off season therefore there wasn't too many people, or that there was no queue anywhere, but our stay felt ever so relaxing. It almost felt like time froze while we were away. A true tranquil getaway.

Poor restaurant service. Simple order took 45 minutes. Room has moldy smell. Facility not maintain eg. pool table, carrom table. No convinient shop or minimart. Far from ferry terminal. Over-charged food and beverage. Tasted average. It is worth to pay a little more for better resorts at Lagoi area.
