De villa was prachtig, super schoon en heel groot met een zit kamer, en een slapkamer met een geweldig badkamer. De personeel was super aardig, altijd klaar om te helpen. Het ontbijt is zeer uitgebreid en je kunt van alles vinden - lokale gerechten, maar ook continentale gerechten. Het specialty restaurant is geweldig is een MUST, Verrukkelijk eten!!! Het zwembad is een infinity pool, niet groot met genoeg bedden. Prachtige zee en strand!!
Het hotel ligt heel ver (ongeveer 1.5 uur ) van de Ferry Terminal en buiten het resort is er niets te doen behalve de georganiseerde door het hotel tours. Wij zijn op een snorkel trip geweest en het was suuuper leuk maar verder hebben weinig van het eiland gezien.

Special thanks to Dani and his other colleagues - absolutely love it when the staff is so good!! The Residence Bintan is an example of how the service industry should be!!
Everything was wonderful! However, if I have to pick one thing - it was perhaps the journey from the fairy terminal to the hotel, it wasn't as comfortable. I would suggest to pick a private cab instead of the hotel bus!
Staying at the Residence Bintan was absolute bliss. We were picked up from the airport and checked in very smoothly. A buggy brought us to our room and our luggage was already there. We could use the buggy or bikes to go around. We absolutely loved the staff, Dani, Nono and all the others thank you for taking such good care of us.

Reviewed Jul 10, 2026The Residence Bintan is a wonderful destination for families, young children, and elderly guests looking for a peaceful and relaxing beach getaway. Although it is about an 80-minute drive from BBT Ferry Terminal, it is absolutely worth the journey. We stayed for 4 days and 3 nights in July 2026, and the duration felt just right for the rest and relaxation we were looking for.
From the moment we checked in until the day we left, the service was impeccable. Every member of the staff was professional, friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our stay as comfortable as possible. Before we arrived, they had already prepared our room with a sofa bed, baby cot, and a children's toilet seat. We were also delighted by the adorable teddy bear towel art in our room—a thoughtful touch and a lovely memory of our stay at The Residence Bintan.
The food within the resort was good, and since restaurants outside the resort are quite a distance away, we ate most of our meals there. One thing we really appreciated was that the room service menu was priced the same as dining at the café, making it very convenient for families. There are several dining options, including The Pool Bar, The Café, and Rica Rica, the Indonesian restaurant, which was our favourite. Danny provided exceptional service—he was warm, friendly, and always checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. The other restaurant staff were equally attentive, caring, and efficient.
A special thank you goes to the entire team for their outstanding care when our daughter suffered a laceration during our stay. The staff responded immediately by providing a first aid kit and arranging transport to a nearby clinic about 15 minutes away. We are especially grateful to the resort nurse, Mr. Rahman, who helped change her dressings regularly so she could continue enjoying the swimming pool and beach safely. We sincerely appreciate the excellent teamwork, prompt communication, and genuine concern shown by everyone. To our surprise, the staff even prepared a cake wishing her a speedy recovery. Many staff members also checked on her every day, asking how her wound was healing, which made her feel incredibly special and well cared for.
For families with children, there are plenty of activities available, with most Kids' Club activities being complimentary (although some, such as T-shirt and tote bag painting, require a small fee). Activities include colouring, recycled paper crafts, henna art, feeding chickens, rabbits and fish, movie days, and many more. The Kids' Club staff were friendly, patient, and welcoming. There is a comfortable air-conditioned indoor play area for younger children, as well as an outdoor playground. Children under five years old do need to be accompanied by an adult.
The beach is clean, peaceful, and breezy, with plenty of hammocks and complimentary towels available for guests. There are also many water sports and beach activities to enjoy. The swimming pool was warm and well maintained, featuring a 1.2-metre main pool as well as a separate baby and children's pool.
For adults, the resort also offers a well-equipped gym, yoga sessions, and a spa with massage treatments for those looking to unwind further.
Overall, we had a truly memorable family holiday at The Residence Bintan. The exceptional hospitality, genuine warmth, and attention to detail shown by every member of the team made our stay unforgettable. We highly recommend this resort to anyone seeking peace, tranquillity, spacious accommodation, excellent family-friendly facilities, and truly outstanding service. We look forward to returning again in the future.
The staff were exceptional. They loved the kids and did everything they could to make their stay special. Dani in the main restaurant deserves a special shout out.

This would be our first time outside of it and thus a new adventure with no expectations. When we arrived, we were greeted by the friendly front desk staff, and learnt that the following day till end of the week was the “Island Roots Cultural Weekend”. The Residence Bintan already has many different activities available including complimentary ones such as stand up paddle, kayaking, animal feeding, etc. Along with these, the cultural activities further added to the schedule and kept us busy. Our kids had tremendous fun at every activity and learnt a lot about the Indonesian culture. What stood out was how all the staff were extremely warm and friendly and took time to explain to us the history behind the traditional performances and games. We naturally joined in the fun. Needless to say, that was the reason why we decided to say Yes when our kids asked us if we could extend our stay for another 2 nights to experience all the cultural activities with the very wonderful staff.

Reviewed Jun 21, 2026We booked the beach pool villa for 2 nights. A quick getaway. The room had breakfast included. The resort is hidden and tugged away at the edge.
On the website, it shows how long it takes from each ferry, and we decided to take a ferry from SG to Tanjung Pinang since the shuttle ride was only supposed to be 45 minutes.
We informed them of our ferry details. 11 am departure from SG and arrived on time. It turned out that we had to wait over one hour in the hotel shuttle. The hotel staff was not forthcoming with the wait time and kept saying it was a few minutes.
In the end, we arrived at the resort at slightly past 2pm(IND time) which meant, it took us 4 hours to get here from Tanah Merah ferry terminal. The ride from the ferry terminal to the resort is bumpy. And mostly unpaved roads.
We were hungry. And annoyed. And the guy at the front desk proceeded to dismiss us. And claimed that he will give us an early check in. Annoyed, I said, I’d give them a one star review. Which I wanted to. And he tried to offer some stuff which we turned down.
However, when we got to our room — the operation manager came to see us. Offering us a pizza and coconut. It was hard to reject but he was very friendly and persistent.
Pool is very tiny and somewhat dirty. Lots of chlorine though. And… it looked nothing like the photos. Room was ok.
Had dinner on the first night at Rica Rica. Food is pretty good — Singapore prices. Rimbun offers grilled stuff.
Breakfast was decent. With a good spread.
When we went back to the room after breakfast, the door didn’t work. We couldn’t get into the room.
The service: the manager was really good. He went above and beyond to connect with other guests as well. The rest — manage your expectations and definitely not 5 star standard.
They offered a car to drive us back to the ferry terminal for our departure. I don’t usually accept any of the service recovery but I have to applaud them for being so insistent that it’s almost uncomfortable if we do not accept it.

Reviewed Jun 21, 2026It’s our 4 or 5th time as returning guests to the bintan residences and it’s like coming back to a familiar friend every time. Rajeev and his solid team, Toni, Jarwo and jay are always a joy to see. They are attentive without being intrusive. They are dedicated, swift, quiet and discreet in their engagements to make sure that the guests are well taken care of. Be it attending to a minor cut of my younger son when he accidentally shattered the glass bottle in the room, to getting the external pest control to work when I casually mentioned about mosquitoes, this team have been tight since the inception of the resort and what I marvel about them is that they make a conscious effort to remember their guests and their preferences, even from where we last left off.
For our recent trip we tried the banana boat experience and revisited the atv course which has gotten more challenging than I last remembered. New additions like an outdoor badminton setup, a basketball hoop kept my boys occupied. And for me, the yoga at the beach was an absolute dream. And old favs like the games room with pool and table tennis and onsite farm visit certainly took some iPad gaming time away from the kids.
We were fortunate to come by during the week where the resort has lined up cultural activities like outdoor traditional dance performance, hat making, henna painting, and onsite vendor market. They were very nice distractions from our usual afternoon fiesta when the sun was too hot and instead we were napping our time away

Mustika was always helpful, friendly, and dependable during our buggy transfers and throughout our stay. He consistently went the extra mile, including helping me get the cigarettes I was looking for. His willingness to help was greatly appreciated.
Ryanto welcomed us warmly from the moment we arrived and ensured our stay went smoothly. He patiently shared information about the resort’s activities and facilities, helping us make the most of our holiday.
We would also like to thank the staff member at breakfast whose name we unfortunately did not catch. He prepared kopi tarik, teh tarik, and Milo for us, and the kopi tarik tasted exactly like the traditional kopitiam-style kopi tarik that I love. It was a small detail, but one that made us smile and feel at home.
Together, they made our family feel genuinely cared for.
We’ve stayed at beautiful resorts before, but what makes this resort truly special is its people. Every staff member greeted us with genuine warmth, kindness, and hospitality. Throughout our stay, our family felt welcomed, comfortable, and at home.
Thank you for creating such wonderful memories for us. We will leave with fond memories and hope to return again in the future.
We didn’t have any major issues during our stay. Everything met our expectations, and we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday.
The only minor downside is that the resort is quite secluded, so there aren’t many attractions or restaurants nearby. However, this also makes it a perfect destination for those looking for peace and relaxation.
The food and drinks at the resort were a little on the expensive side, but the quality and service were good.
The other side note is that there’s alot of insects near our private pool. So plese bring insects repellent not only mosquitoes repellent.

Reviewed Jun 17, 2026The location is around 90min drive from ferry terminal. But it was beautiful place. It was quiet and nice. Though we didn’t play a lot of activities there due to young kids, we saw that there are many water and land sports. We also able to access to the beach. We got to do stargazing even. Kids club were kind of smaller than expected and outdoor playground. Nothing much but somehow my kids enjoyed it there. It was a chill trip to lepak and what we really enjoyed most was the service. Service was excellent. My kids (4 & 7yo) love the staffs and keep on talking about how they made their days. We got a decent massage and earth basket tour too! Oh yes. We booked a tour to see fireflies too.
