Banyan Tree Bintan

Beautiful hotel on Bintan! We’d recommend it. We’ve enjoyed a villa with pool and beautiful view. Some items are a little dated, but overall we thought it’s in good nick and they maintain the villas and common areas well. The beach is a total hidden gem as it’s incredibly beautiful only a step down from the large pool. You wouldn’t need a private pool. The service stands out with exceptional care throughout from check-in to housekeeping. Nice restaurants on site (Treetops our favourite). Breakfast buffet has a fantastic variety! There isn’t a convenience shop close by, so make sure to pack what you need (diapers in our case). Bring loose clothing to protect you from mosquitos as it’s lovely to sit outside and enjoy the view. The property is quite hilly which wasn’t an issue with kids for us, but to keep in mind if you have issues getting around stairs. The trips (mangrove and island) are worth doing!

I had literally one of the best times here. Basically Rizan was my personal butler. He handled EVERYTHING via wassap and this was so convenient. The beach is fantastic with clear water and safe waters for kids. Not even an exaggeration. We even went fishing on the Kelong Villa with the help of Rizan. Caught three fish and my kid was so excited. Location is obviously perfect bc its a 45 min trip from Singapore. Now I dont need to go to the maldives even!! Banyan Tree tree service is truly marvelous. Complete luxury in 45 mins.
