We just stayed at Nirwana Resort Hotel a few days ago. It was the a nightmare. Firstly, we arrived early as we booked for check-in for 1pm. When we arrived we were told that they can only guarantee at 3pm. So why give the option of check-in at 1pm ? Apparently its subject to availability- which I cant recall seeing.... More

The transport by Ferry from Singapore was very agreeable we arrived on time in Bintan. The visa on arrival worked fine and the hotel offers transportation from the ferry to the hotel. They welcome us with a group of dancers and a non-alcoholic drink. We spent 5 days there I we liked: They offered us an upgrade to a suite... More

stayed at the resort hotel for a short 2d1n trip. it was ok, on average. we had the superior room facing the garden on the ground floor. nothing too fanciful or out of the ordinary. the only thing was that, upgrading works was being carried out and altho the notice stated works carried out only till 1800hrs, there were still...

Among the benefits - a huge area hotel, nice beach with white sand. Prices in restaurants and hotel spas are inflated by several times. The hotel is designed for affluent customers from Singapore. Spa in the nearby village of cheaper and better in quality. For the rest it is better to choose other islands of Indonesia than Bintan.

We expected to have a great time after reading reviews here, somehow things didn't seem to work for us from the moment we stepped in on the island. The ferry terminal authorities blatantly asked us to cough up S$ 3/visa on arrival as bribe. We definitely... More

Just spent a couple of days on Bintan whilst visiting Singapore. Its really big, spacious resort with shuttle buses to get you around everywhere. Lots of activities from jet skiing, archery, shooting, golf and even a big bowling alley and game center, with a bar. So great for families, yet not overbearing for couples at all. Unfortunately during our stay,... More

We booked 2 nights here at the end of a Singapore trip. The ferry trip was extremely rocky and the 50 minutes felt a lot longer! Luckily, we got through immigration relatively quickly and were directed to the Nirwana resort bus with the other 50 people. There are only a few resorts near the ferry terminal area so we were...

The resort lives up to customer's expectations! Looks exactly in the pictures! Great ambiance, well-kept and tidied up rooms! Plus a buffet breakfast that'll surely satisfy a glutton in you =) not to mention the clean pools and great beach! Definitely a paradise that you will get back to.. Thank you, Nirwana! See you again soon!

The whole resort is definitely a paradise like from a picture book. So many beautiful views that serve all cliches you may have of 'paradise'. And here we already are at the sad side of it: it is sad to see the tar at the beach, and as soon as you put your head under water you will see plastics... More
