I love their food and they have a lot of nice spots for those who like to take food pics or do photoshoots. The pool is a plus, you can explore the area and also use it for a small fee. Must visit! The lunch sets are great value at around 100k Indonesian. The coffee and food quality was quite decent. staff is heplful and warm. The prices of something's may be more than other cafes in the vicinity but the quality and ambience makes it worth it. #batamtrip#travel

#batamtrip Barelang Bridge is more than just a connection between Batam’s islands—it’s one of the most iconic landmarks in the area. Made up of six bridges spanning multiple islands, the main bridge is a favorite photo spot, especially during sunset. You can enjoy a scenic drive across or simply park nearby and take in the views. On weekends, it’s a lively hangout for locals and tourists alike, with food vendors and street snacks adding to the vibe. The ocean views are stunning, and the breeze is refreshing. If you’re visiting Batam, a quick trip to Barelang Bridge is a must on your #batamtrip itinerary.

#batamtrip Ranoh Island is a slice of paradise that feels almost untouched. Just a short boat ride from Batam, this private island offers white sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and loads of activities. Whether you're into snorkeling, kayaking, or just laying out under a palm tree, it’s the perfect day-trip destination. The water is calm and ideal for swimming, and the island has a clean, well-maintained vibe. It’s a favorite among Instagrammers thanks to the beautiful swings, beach hammocks, and tropical backdrops. Ranoh is the definition of an island escape and absolutely deserves a spot on your #batamtrip bucket list.

#batamtrip The hotel overall was pretty good. The villa is right on the water with 7 rooms connected to one another. Private Balcony for each room. Common balcony was also nice. The hotel itself had room service but when i contacted the number no response. Had to walk back to the reception to get food. Around 400m. Quiet and relaxing but far from everything else. If you like quiet this is the place. Not so environmentally friendly.

have a nice day a jembatan barelang - batam island #batam #barelang #barelangseafood

Stretching across the shimmering waters of Batam, Barelang Bridge 1, also known as the Fisabilillah Bridge, is more than just a bridge; it's a symbol of ambition and connection. Its striking frame commands attention and offers breathtaking panoramic views. While driving across is a must-do, consider stopping at one of the viewing points to fully appreciate its scale and grandeur. You'll find vendors selling refreshments and souvenirs, and it's a popular spot for photos. The bridge is especially captivating at sunset when the sky erupts in a kaleidoscope of colors. Even if you aren't an engineering buff, Barelang Bridge 1 (or Fisabilillah Bridge) is worth a visit. It's a testament to human ingenuity and a reminder of the beauty of connecting people and places.

Galang Island is an island in the government area of Batam City, Riau Islands province, which is the third large island chain connected by six Barelang bridges. This island is famous for its large-scale Vietnamese refugee camps in 1979–1996 and became the focus of the United Nations and international circles. The Galang refugee camp is now a tourist and historical attraction for the city of Batam, because of its relatively close distance to Batam Island (around 7 km).#triplocal

amazing

Holiday Mood is here!! Hoola everyone! The most memorable trip I have ever had was when I was 17 traveling to Vietnam alone. I was living and working in Vietnam for 4 months as a bartender (and ended up meeting my amazing girlfriend there too!). The most emotional part of the trip was when I was leaving back to Australia to visit my Grandmother who had been very sick. I felt like I lost everything (and even being able to see the person who I had come to love). I worked hard for 6 months and was able to find my way back here. 3 years later I live in this beautiful country and able to speak the native language while living with my girlfriend

Both the church and temple are architectural marvels, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail that characterize places of worship.
