D'Primahotel Lagoi Bintan

Clean, tidy and hygienic, good

The price/performance ratio is quite high, and it's very convenient to eat nearby. You just need to take a taxi to the beach.

I am traveling alone. 1 Transportation to and from the ferry terminal: The hotel is 1.8km away from the ferry terminal. I didn't take a taxi when I got off the ferry. I walked with my luggage for a while. On the way, I met a resort manager who drove me in a small car and took me to the hotel door. When I left, the hotel arranged a taxi. , the cost is 80,000 rupees, which is equivalent to RMB 37. In fact, it is only a 2-minute drive away. This fee is actually a bit expensive, and the fee is given to the hotel and not directly to the driver. It is estimated that the hotel takes a commission. 1 Some of the single rooms I booked had windows (which could not be opened), and some did not have windows. However, the photos on the website looked like they had windows. After I checked in, the front desk arranged a room without windows for me, so I complained to Ctrip. , Ctrip asked me to take photos of the room and upload them to the customer service system. Ctrip thought my suggestion was reasonable. After coordination, the customer service moved me to a single room with a corner window, which I thought was acceptable. 2 The room is indeed small. After opening the 28-inch large box, the aisle is blocked. This is in line with expectations. After all, it is a single room in a budget hotel. There is no refrigerator in the room either. 3. For breakfast, when there are few guests, you need to make a reservation (breakfast starts at 8 o'clock local time at the earliest, but in fact it is already 9 o'clock in Singapore, and it is already dawn) and choose the type. When there are many people, it is a buffet breakfast. I encountered both situations. 4 The hotel does not provide bicycles for guests to use, so it is very inconvenient to go out. The customer service rented me a gasoline-filled motorcycle (presumably the locals are not using it temporarily when they are free) for 300,000 rupees per day ( Equivalent to RMB 140 per day), I think this price is twice that of Bali. But the customer service said that the price is almost the same in Bintan Island. Maybe Bali is densely populated and has many tourists, so there are many motorcycle rental shops. There are no such specialized shops in Bintan Island Resort. It is speculated that the hotel borrows motorcycles from locals and rents them to customers. I rented it for 2 days and rode more than 100 kilometers every day. I experienced three ways of refueling at a formal gas station, refueling with a simple glass jar at a canteen, and buying a large 1.5-liter bottle of gasoline and refueling with a funnel. On the first day, I went to the Blue Lagoon Sand Dunes in the south, a Cilff Cafe on the edge of Bintan Mountain (for lunch at the cliff restaurant, it is a commanding point, you can see the view of Bintan Mountain), and Tanjung Pinang (got a massage there, 250,000 for 90 minutes) The rupee is equivalent to RMB 120, which is relatively cheap. However, there are no separate rooms. They are separated by curtains and mats are spread on the ground. Massage by Indonesian aunts). The next day, I went to Trikora Beach in the east and saw many floating houses on the beach. , we also went to the PANLONG Fishing Village (Sea Gypsy) on the edge of the mangroves in the northeast corner, and then to the Lagoi Lake, Reservoir, and Lagoi Beach in the northern resort area. They are all open. In the evening, we went to Nirvana Garden. Unfortunately, I didn’t know that KELONG Seafood Restaurant was closed on Monday, so I didn’t get to eat seafood. As long as you say you are going in to eat, the security at the resort entrance will let you go, so you can go to the beach too! 5 I met some people on the road who rented mountain bikes for a cycling trip. There will be service vehicles to follow the riders, but the speed is much slower than my motorcycle. It is actually not suitable for visiting scenic spots, and it is very sunny in Bintan Island. Oh! Applying sunscreen vigorously can’t prevent you from getting tanned! It’s better to stop riding! 5 The hotel is located in a small settlement. There is a food court where locals eat, a small supermarket, and 2 massage parlors. However, the massage prices are the same as those in the resort, which is 2-2 lower than the local massage parlors in Tanjung Pinang. 3 times. To the south of this small settlement are the Mangrove Tour (day boat ride) and Firefly Tour (night boat ride). I rode a motorcycle for 2 days and passed many bridges, rivers, and beaches. I saw too many mangroves, so I didn’t go on the mangrove tour on this boat. Finally, let’s talk about the key suggestions again! It would be convenient if the hotel provided bicycles to customers for free. Customers could ride to the nearby Treasure Bay and the beautiful lagoon swimming pool (a package of Anmon Resort), and they could go in and enjoy and swim by buying a ticket! Guests can also ride to Lagoi Lake, Reservoir and Lagoi Beach, which are also open; guests can also go to Nirwana Gardens to the beach and eat seafood at Kelong Restaurant, so that they can actually enjoy the core facilities of the resort. Bintan Island Resort is managed by Singapore entrusted by Indonesia. The area itself is quite small. Renting a motorcycle is too expensive and not cost-effective, and walking seems too big. Therefore, it is a major regret that guests cannot go anywhere without free bicycles. It is recommended that the hotel consider this in the future.
