Relaxing moment with Marriott Batam
#infinitypool #marriotthotel #batamfun
5 stars hotel. Convenient location. Hotel is just above immigration checkpoint. Lots of shops and restaurants cafes around- just take your pick. KFC, indomart, all the restaurants and minimarts also Eska spa just downstairs. Nagoya mall is 5 mins via grab which cost only $1.90 😍 Our favourite hotel to come for short getaway with our toddler, the hotel staffs recognised us whenever we come to stay as we are regulars 😁
Room is perfect and clean, we always book the one with balcony facing the pool as we have a toddler so she can go in and out to the balcony to maximise her energy and curiosity!
Room service is great but singapore price! Shower is amazing as they have rain shower and strong water pressure. Spa is amazing and good pricing similar to Eska downstairs.
Breakfast is always amazing with lots of varieties from local cuisine to western to japanese.
Downside - hotel is near mosque so you can hear the call to prayer and quran recital in the morning and evening.
Also if you stay on weekends there will be a weekend market next to the hotel in an open space parking lot. It can be quite noisy especially if your room is facing the city view which is the parking space view. Otherwise all is great!#2024
Traveling to Batam, Indonesia, can be a rewarding experience, especially if you're looking for a mix of relaxation, adventure, and cultural exploration.
Experience**: Batam is a great place for affordable spa treatments. Spend a day indulging in massages, facials, and other wellness treatments.#batam #indonesia #Swiss-Belhotel
Sunset in batam
Blue fire beach club is such a chill place to have a cup of drink and enjoy the sunset. It’s it’s a valuable place to take photo but not the food. I have order three food and at the end just came two. Me and my friends waited around one hour and the food haven’t been served. So for this pink sand place, only picture and drinks are recommended. Other than that, swimming pool is clean too.
Sambal station 😻
I love sambal and this really made my day each morning at breakfast my gosh

The Lounge or Altitude Rooftop Bar
The Lounge or Altitude Rooftop Bar & Lounge, experience the ultimate evening of glamour and indulgence.
From 6pm to 10pm for just IDR 199,000,- Buy 1 Cocktail Get 1 Free Cocktail.
Definitely need to try this out!
Getting There - Harbour Bay terminal, just beside the hotel
Just a lift away.
Attractions - The swimming pool with the pool bar. Another bar at the Roof top bar called Altitude was amazing,you will be amazed, surprised that you’re in BKK. As usual there are gym, spa like the most hotels but this one has a shopping Center below and a 24/7 convenience store with plenty of food options.
Hotels - I would rate a 3star for the price as there are rooms for improvement for the toilet seat, drainage and the shower head wasn’t working, hence we used the normal shower head instead. They provides Baygon in the room as there are 2 babies cockroaches. (Last pic) Requested for extra Baygon, the service was fast to get the Baygon to our room. And the swimming pool open till 8pm, gym 10pm, bars 12midnight. After that we sleep.
Food & Restaurants - they have very classy restaurants in the hotel but there are more choices of restaurants outside of the hotel.
Shopping - Just a lift away
Definitely need to try this out if you’re a lazy person like me. Don’t book through 3rd party app. Go to their website to have 60 or 90 minutes spa treat.
Recommended if you don’t want to get jammed to Malaysia or flying to BKK. Just remember not Batam Centre ferry Terminal. It’s Harbour Bay ferry Terminal. You will love it.

#hotelreview
Planet Holiday Hotel in Batam is a good accommodation option located conveniently close to the city center. It offers comfortable rooms and a range of amenities to ensure a pleasant stay. The hotel's highlights include a swimming pool, basic gym, and sauna, and its proximity to some local dining options, restaurants, and cafe, including McDonald's. The room is spacious and clean and the water pressure is strong.
This hotel is well-known by locals, and it is not far from Nagoya Hill Shopping centre, Lucky Plaza, several local food courts, money changers and foot massage. Its also not too far from Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal. Therefore, from my room window, I can see the Singapore skyscrapers.
The service is good, friendly staff, and to go around, the best is to order Grab. Its a safe place, the security guard is always around and guests need an access card to go up to the room. Overall, it's a delightful and affordable choice for travelers looking for a cozy retreat in Batam.
Modern and comfortable Batam stay
✔️ Four Points Hotel By Sheraton
📍 Komplek Panorama Nagoya, Jodoh River, Batu Ampar, Batam City, Riau Islands 29432, Indonesia
Situated in the heart of Batam’s Nagoya district, this 4-star hotel is an affordable option for tourists looking for a more modern accommodation to stay in! It is part of the Marriott Bonvoy hotel group, with generally comfortable and hygienic rooms. Our room was quite high up so we got to enjoy a nice city view.
On the ground floor, there is an all-day dining restaurant that serves pretty decent local food. If your package includes breakfast, it will be served here as well. We didn’t opt for the breakfast inclusion as there are many eateries and food markets located nearby!
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
