We have seen movies and read books that portray vacation spots with innermost tranquillity. Yet, some of these places have become packed with more people over the years.
With a small population, Bintan is more ideal for the perfect quiet getaway.
And if you like a more crowded, yet friendly location, you can also always visit Singapore since the distance from Bintan Island is not more than an hour by ferry ride.
We hope you find the best resort for you and your family.
Enjoy your vacation!
