Weekend in Batam

A June 2005 trip to Batam Island by Raymond Ang

We went there for a weekend getaway. It takes only 1 hour to reach Batam by ferry from Singapore. Relax, jet ski, and use the large swimming pool with pool bar.

Best Things Nearby:
Seafood restaurant, pub and shopping are only 5 minutes away.

Best Things About the Resort:
Clean, friendly staff, big swimming pool with a covered Jacuzzi pool for those do not want to get sunburned, as it is summer throughout the year.

Resort Experience:
The room we have is a hotel unit with a queen bed and a double sofa bed with a pool view balcony. There is no kitchen in the unit but a coffee maker is available. We spent the whole 3 days in the resort doing activities like go-carts, parasailing, jet skiing, bowling, and many more. With all this sport activity, remember to try out the spa and massage to relax. Value for money.
