Cari Hotel dengan Balkoni di Pulau Bintan

Amazing experience! They gave snacks (cookies & water) and cool towels during our land transfer. The location is far from the ferry port, it takes around 75mins, but good enough we had Wifi on board. Upon arrival of the hotel, the staff greeted us with warm welcome, served us refreshing drinks, and assisted our check-in right away. We rode the buggy to our villa, and they assisted us in bringing our luggage. The villa is amazing. It was so big! I love the hammock! The room is very clean. It has mini bar so you may have some drinks and pay upon check-out. We had a coffee maker in our room with complimentary coffee pods. The food on The Dining Room, Pool Bar, and Rica-rica were all delicious. Breakfast has a lot of choices. Although too sad they don't have hot chocolate so we just had coffee. We were surprised they told us we have one-time complimentary cocktail/mocktail! And oh, they gave my husband a birthday cake! The SPA offered excellent massage experience. We had land and water activities to make the stay more fun. The beach is so-so, we didn't swim there. But we loved the swimming pool. A lot of free activities also like kayaking, standing paddle, darts, billiards, table tennis, board games. We didn't get to try biking as we get tired easily haha. The staff are the best. Everyone wears beautiful smiles all the time. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience!

This place has the nice vibes of a traditional resort. Staff were largely polite, welcoming and friendly. There’s a large private beach area. However, my stay was marred by several issues. I booked a room with options for either a double bed or 2 twin beds. Upon arrival, I was told that there were no double beds available. I asked the staff if there’s anyone in a double bed room who’s checking out today, and told the staff I’m willing to wait if there is. She said there’s a guest in a double bed room who’s checking out that day, but she’s unable to “confirm”. She suggested that I take a room with 2 twin beds combined instead. Sensing that I’ve no choice, I reluctantly accepted it, and upon reaching that room, I saw the adjacent room with a double bed and the room looked vacant. I went back to the reception to ask if I could take that other room, and this time another staff took over and told me there’s a room with double bed for me but I have to wait for it to be ready. I agreed but felt perplexed why the first staff couldn’t have just told me the same thing. It’s not like I insisted on having a double bed room immediately, I already said I’m willing to wait. Another issue was the wifi. We all had problems connecting to the wifi, and when we finally got connected, the connection was often unstable. On the second night, there was a power failure and the electricity was out for several minutes. Overall, this is still a nice comfortable resort that makes a good getaway from the city. It will be even better if staff communication and wifi can be improved.

Resort was very quiet when we arrived on Thursday. The lagoon was spectacular. Very impressive. Very clean. The lagoon was separated into areas for specific activities. And all activities on the resort comes with additional fees. But they currently have a promo for November which comes with free Slip and Slide, it’s awesome! Kids had a great time there. All the paid activities are expensive. Better to get the package deal from Klook. I had a terrible food poisoning on Day 2. And I was the only one to get it in my family of four. Was sent off to the clinic for anti vomit jab and recovered on the second day. Ordered bbq at our tent for dinner on one of the night and it was so nicely set up. Unfortunately food was not nice 😅 too salty or too sweet! There’s only one restaurant in the resort. Food is expensive. And quality is just average. Breakfast is about the same everyday. 😅

I recently stayed at Cassia Bintan for a weekend getaway, and my experience was a mixed bag of highs and lows. Let's start with the positives. The beachfront location of the hotel is absolutely stunning. The serene atmosphere, with the sound of waves crashing gently against the shore, provided the perfect backdrop for relaxation. Whether you're lounging under the sun or taking a leisurely stroll along the coastline, the beach here is truly a gem. Now, onto the activities. The pool Zumba and bubble party were definitely highlights of my stay. The energetic instructor made the Zumba sessions both enjoyable and effective, and the bubble party added a fun and whimsical touch to the poolside atmosphere. It was great to see guests of all ages coming together to dance, laugh, and simply have a good time. However, despite these enjoyable aspects, I couldn't ignore the elephant in the room: the price. Unfortunately, the cost of staying at Cassia Bintan was quite steep, especially the food at the restaurant. While the beach and activities were fantastic, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was paying a premium for what should have been included in the standard rate. In conclusion, Cassia Bintan offers a picturesque beach setting, enjoyable activities like pool Zumba and bubble parties, but be prepared to dig deep into your pockets for the experience. If you're willing to splurge for a luxurious getaway, this might be the place for you. However, if you're budget-conscious, you may want to explore other options.

Amazing experience at Doulus Phos ship hotel. Staying on this amazing Guinness world record ship is definitely one for the books for me. I was once able to bought a book on this MV Doulus when it was sailing to sell books worldwide. The view, the amazing staff and the facilities are truly one of a kind. It was monsoon when we stay that’s why we didn’t manage to enjoy the infinity pool. We would like to come back to experience the outdoor movie with bonfire, the infinity pool and the sunset dinner. The food is great (“, ) and we truly love the amazing warm hospitality of the staff. Definitely we will be back with our family during summer time. It is a good place for family, friends or a retreat. The facilities is huge, a lot if possible activities that can be done and enjoy and not to mention that the tranquility. There is also a spa, it is still under soft opening and still undergoing for improvement but nonetheless it is worth every penny you have.

The hotel and its facilities are very nice. Here and there a few spots of improvements needed but otherwise a very attractive hotel with lovely features. A very pleasant stay starts with a dedicated lounge at the ferry terminal which is available upon arrival and departure (taking care of your visa and other requirements). Travel to the actual hotel is within short 20 minutes by hotel shuttle bus. You can chose between colonial style suites at the main building or near by or Thai/ Bali style villas on the large ground and a short walk away from the main building. The Thai villas are very nice, filled with all the necessary amenities and some top of the range products. Plenty of storage space, outdoor veranda seating and well kept exterior make it really nice. At the main section, the pool is with its 50 meter in length a true highlight, together with the very easy and close proximity to the pristine and huge beach section. Although facing north, the beach is actually in a bay and can be explored for hours. Also well worth mentioning is the spa which provides truly amazing treatments administered by very experienced therapists who will truly pamper you from start to finish. Regrettably, there are also a number of shortcomings. Although the hotel provides insect repellant for your daily use, even the best of preventions and best of cleaning/ spraying efforts of the staff will not stop billions of sand flees attacking you on the beach, especially after rain or during the evening hours when you become their dinner. However, the biggest drawback is the food and beverage section. For a hotel operating in such a high price category, the restaurant is a true letdown perhaps even the sole reason for not coming back again. Yes staff everywhere is very friendly, attentive and making it their business to know you by your first name from the start, but the entire food and beverage section requires a lot of improvements to even get close to a star rated service. Yes the drinks are well made (guess can be expected at prices of US$20 plus) but the restaurant service truly lacks what it takes. The food, expensive as it is, lacks any sort of imagination, is void of any special touches, and surely does not represent Indonesian cuisine in any shape or form. As said, staff are very friendly and trying their best however, if they are not taught the basics or led by indifferent managers, then things need to change. Management comes from the top. In summary, if you are looking for a nice place to relax in a colonial style building, not too crowded with a lovely pool, then please try the Sanchaya. However, if you looking for cuisine which is anything but poor, not even ordinary, then you better look elsewhere.

It was a great experience to celebrate my birthday with them. For a long time, I never felt alone on this kind of days, I was welcomed with genuine and sincere people around with such efforts to make me happy. From the exchange of email with Ms. Paskah to make sure that I'll be accommodated from picking me up to taking note of my requests. To Ms. Jessica, Asep and Mr. Agung who decorated my room as a surprise for my birthday (that was so cute). To Ledy who assisted me from check in to check out and who helped me out to get a Balinese Massage by Wanda. To Bram and Sonia whose been so good, made me feel special on my day, such kind and very hospitable ones. I've been travelling most of the time, and this is the first time I felt at peace and genuinely happy. To realize that life is worth living and the world is beautiful. Thank you so much everyone. That was a day to remember. You touched my heart, and made me believe that gentleness and being sincere still exist.
