Singapore & Bintan

The perfect combination of beach and city holiday - three nights of sand, sun, golf, spa and family time together in Bintan Island, Indonesia, just 1-hour away from the cosmopolitan city-state of Singapore.
And in an unconventional reverse of holiday planning, notch up the intensity from peace to pace by catching up on the best shopping (for replenishments, apparel, wine and toys), dining, and thrills for the kids!

The island of BIntan has ten resorts catering to wide variety of budgets including the signature Banyan Tree Bintan Resort & Spa. On its north west coast are the spectacular resorts, golf courses, watersports, and fancy shopping malls that are strung across like a necklace of pearls, each one trying to outdo the other. Choose any one of these places depending upon how much you want to spend, and you are assured of a great family vacation or a romantic and pampered interlude.

When you are done with Bintan, transfer by the one-hour ferry to Singapore for 2-nights. Take a half-day city tour and drive around the Civic District and enjoy the impressive views of Marina Bay, some of the oldest Buddhist-Taoist temples at Chinatown, and the National Orchid Garden, which boasts a staggering 60,000 orchid plants. Then discover Singapore on top of Asia’s most iconic architectural and engineering marvel – the Singapore Flyer. From sunrise until sunset, experience the breathtaking, panoromic views of Singapore and beyond. And visit the world’s first Night Safari set in 40 hectares of secondary jungle. See a myriad of nocturnal animals, from fierce predators to timid forest dwellers, in their natural habitat under subtle moonglow lighting.
