though 55 mins away... not a bad experience afterall !

Always hear people talking about Bintan this, Bintan that. Finally had a chance to go experience ourselves.

Actually Bintan is only 55 mins away from sg, which probably explains why we dont particularly felt like we are in overseas... :) Our journey started off pretty "choppy"... probably too long never take ferry liao. felt abit giddy leh! (old liao old liao)

When we arrived at the resort, we were welcomed by the resort dancers. It felt good when they welcomed you with their traditional dance (i guess) and a drink to quench your thirst. Bintan lagoon resort was really big, equipped with almost all kind of facilities. Well, the food was not very fantastic though. But overall quite ok la. The resort was nice... nice beach, nice pool... weather was great... had a very cosy room... etc. oh ya... We had a nice romantic dinner by the beach... It was overall a great 3D2N getaway. Everything was great except the "price" la! wa seh... things there are not cheap man...especially the food. The menu are simply in sing dollars. And guess what... they dont bother to tell you that it's in sing dollars ok! well... since we are there... dont bother la. :) spend first... pinch later !!! anyway this trip was meant to be a wedding anniversary gift for the both of us... :D

Prices there: 2 (better budget more. dont think it's cheap huh.)
