Hotels with Shopping in Bintan Island

**Had initially submitted a 3/5 star review for delayed check-in and about the "ocean view" villa not having any view of the ocean. I was quickly contacted by Kaleb from guest relations who assured me that the hotel takes the feedback seriously. They offered various options for service recovery which we gladly accepted.** Overall experience - the hotel is very clean and relatively new, and the amenities are more than sufficient for a short stay. The best part of the experience is the staff - all of them (including those at the two restaurants) were super friendly and always greeted us with smiles and asked if we had any issues and how they could help. Around the area, we had heard before the trip that Plaza Lagoi was a ghost town with vacant shop spaces but it wasn't as bad. There were a couple of restaurants, a Yeah Mart, a Mama-B bakery and a gelato shop, and a massage spa too.

Relaxing stay with attentive service. The resort grounds are lovely and new, and facilities are well spread out. Food quality was ok given the price and the prices of treatments at the spa (at the neighbouring Holiday Inn) were very affordable. The only downsides were the smell (liken to wet dog smell) that greeted us when we first entered our garden pool suite. It took some airing and a dehumidifier supplied by the resort to mediate the matter plus the safe that kept malfunctioning. Otherwise, everything else made for a lovely long long weekend in Bintan.

This property surrounding environment is nature and tranquil, room is spacious and clean, with the helpful and courteous staffs, the resort stays are perfectly good and enjoyable, a place cannot miss in Bintan island.
