Club Med Resort, Bintan Island Review

Everything was amazing, but the teens club could use some more funding so when it rains there are more activities to do.

This is our first time to Club Med Bintan, but not our first introduction to Club Med. The experience is great! The food and the views, plus activities, are fantastic. Worth going now since the renovations are done.

Nice chill place with lots to do. The trapeze went down well with our kids. Food was amazing, including the head chef who helped select the right food for a family member that had allergies.

Very fun and a lot of ammenities. Good food, buffet and seaside dinner. A lot of activities and people working there are very friendly.

Excellent entertainment programmes through the day with theme nights too. Awesome staff. Great food n drinks in the all inclusive resort. Good property with pool, beach,bars, buffet n a la carte restaurant,spa, kids club, trampoline and lots of other activities.

The first Impression I know Hospitality Industry ... I have Nice Memories in Club Med Bintan ... Love You Foreva Club Med Bintan

I want to go back with my family
4 nights !!

Got a connecting room facing the sea. Short stroll to the beach. The most memorable experience for me is the food. They spent almost every effort to make your dish looks like a high-class meal and it tastes delicious! Most meals are buffets style and every day is a different dish (you will not get the same type of dish every day, except for ice creams and drinks). Staffs are friendly and kids love them. There are activities every days and you have the option to join in or laze around in the room. There are excursions you can sign up (i.e: firefly experience, mangrove tour etc) but those will be at an additional cost.

TIPS: Avoid going during monsoon season. You will spent most of your time inland due to strong current and heavy rain.

Wonderful 4D3N at Club Med Bintan. Our 7 and 3 year old girl & boy adored it and so did we.
Everything is top notch, the GO team, Kitchen & Bar staff, everyone. Food was good, in my experience it's really unusual for somewhere that serves food buffet style to be so good. There was a huge choices in breakfast, lunch & dinner. Special note the Head chef from South Africa, Indian Chef Dev - For treating our special request with great care & love. Thanks much!

Petit club & Mini club was amazing - My kids did a fashion show, loved to see them performing on stage, learning trapeze, archery etc. Also jungle party, white sensation party, so many games - Kids enjoyed every single moment without disturbing us.That's the best part seeing them enjoying so much make us real happy :)

All the GOs are awesome, full of energy, enthusiastic, multi talented and patience-full. We were lucky to have night shows/party every night which showed how extraordinarily talented the GOs are.

If you have kids but don't want to compromise with a kids holiday then this is for you.

We tried award winning club med spa, its mind blowing from choosing your own oil, sea view room to massage, do not miss it! Lovely experience.

Improvement areas, Terrace restaurant should have more vegetarian options :( ice quality can be better, property needs renovation.

Special thanks to Jonathan Abbadie /Chef de village GM - For sure you made the difference during our stay, keep up the good work! Thanks for making this vacation unforgettable for 4 of us <3

You will see us again for sure!

. If you're coming from Jakarta or other Indonesian cities, just fly to Tanjung Pinang airport instead of goong through SG. The road from airport to Club Med is now in good condition and t'll take you only an hour.

3 times I've been here, still feel like coming back. Super relax! My son loves the Petit Club. The GO's were extremely professional. Food was only ok, but who is here for the food...

Lovely place, helpful and organized staff ready to make you feel at ease and guarantee a wonderful holiday

Great place for short getaway. Many facilities that we can enjoy and evening drink activities. There is a show in the evening time.

Great family holiday at a wonderful location with a magnificent beach.

Club Med is no doubt the best hotel I've ever stayed in. The G.O.s are very friendly. They're very professional and I love how this hotel has a lot of G.O.s from different countries so that people can easily talk to them, either with native language or English. There are a lot of activities to do for all ages. The night shows will definitely make your stomach hurts from laughing. The food and drinks here made me speechless. Nice room and also nice view. I will always looking forward for the next visit to any of Club Med hotel.

Truly paradise on earth. But make sure you get a room close to the reception

Very good place but you`d better careful jelly fish

I was at clubmed for christmas eve, all the GO was amazing. They very helpfull and the spa was great. Hopefully can back here next year

Awesome experience.... Beautiful resort and wonderful hospitality ...enjoyed alloott

Good for families with young kids, but not for quiet small groups or couples

Excellent management, kids club and facilities, unfortunately they currently have a small amount of oil pollution on the beach, so have down graded rating, as even very small amounts manage to stick to you. I would recommend taking a surf mat or boggie board, as generally too hot for afternoon sports.

Everything u need to experience.. nice food.. drinks... dancing. All kinda sports.. best for the family.

The service is very good, the food is good, the weather is not very hot or sticky, it is suitable for vacation

Good place to relax and recharge....stay away from busy lifestyle and daily stress.

considering the distance from Italy, you can find even better we see Sardinia ... good eating beautiful sea Spa but impractical

Comfortable bed with plenty varieties all you can eat foods

I actually had great time there but it was a bit ruined by its poor services

Everything is free and catered for, excellent food and service, well worth the cost. Almost a steal

Excellent buffet for variety and quality. Entertainment of any kind and entrusted to competent people. An enchanting place and a transparent sea which, as the only negative point, has some small but annoying stains of diesel fuel due to the pollution of the boats / ships in the vicinity. Do not miss the Spa offering high quality massages.

Great all inclusive family resort. Major renovations are underway so this place should be even better after NOV16.

The restaurant is really good! They have a wonderful array of foods.

Bellissimo, appena ristrutturato, con uno staff di prim'ordine e una cucina varia e buonissima.

The GO used to be very friendly and approachable, however it isn't that great now. The overall services and food quality have dropped. I hope they will improve their service.

My family of 5 enjoyed all the activities organized. All my kids went to mini club and petit club. Rooms are not luxurious, but more than sufficient for a good night's rest. Our room at Block E is near enough to the main building and facilities. Toiletries are provided, even mosquito repellent wipes. Compared to our previous stay at another Club Med, we find that the food standard is ok, but not as good. However as per Club Med standard, there are lots of variety and there is bound to be something you'll like at the restaurant. The reservations-only restaurant is outdoors, so bring along the insect repellent wipes just in case it's a bugs night out.

A beautiful well developed seaside resort with excellent staff and wonderful peace and security.

Second day in and I'm loving it with kids. Kids place here where they keep kids and activities around them. Free drinks and food. Loved food as well. Lovely part was to get connecting rooms with ocean views. One picture is from room balcony and other is from back of another building structure where we accidentally chanced upon monkeys. (They took us to wrong standard rooms while we had booked superior rooms with ocean views so make sure they take you to the right side of resort based on your booking. Genuine mistake on their part perhaps but make sure that you check it as it will save to and fro time). Coming back to monkeys, you are better off leaving doors windows locked else monkeys are smart enough to get in and grab your stuff.(its advised here as soon as you check in)
Toilets are separate from baths here. Good with kids.
Bar on the beach and also on pool.
Kids activities all day long.
Beach was great on first day with green flag flying..so no rough waters. Mind you no lifeguards are on duty.
Room had a writing table a luggage place and a safe vault as well.
Mind you its a 15 min bus ride from when you arrive at bin tan ferry terminal. After 45 min ferry ride from Singapore i was in no mood for a long bus ride so was good to know it was just 15 min ride.
Of course rooms are not like 5 star given some marks here n there and windows of walk in balcony were hard to operate. But no dramas.
I'll give food as 5 stars though. Drink eat as much as you can at your own risk..don't go overboard :)
The kids show and theatre performance, of a million dreams, led by the resort GM himself, was amazing. Multiple pool activities.
Huge resort where you can get lost :)
Table tennis, tennis, trapeze, squash courts..amazing! I'm coming again and next time will get my sneakers with me for squash and tennis..made a mistake of getting the outdoor shoes.
Will come back again with family for sure!

Excellent. Best place to enjoy the beautiful beach. Gentle staff with smiling face

Lovely location and well appointed facilities. Most of the staff very friendly. Well worth a visit.

An amazing holiday full of laughs, activity, relaxation, pushing boundaries, making new friends, surrounded in natural beauty!

Not as good as its reputation. Facilities and staffs are okay but not the foods selection. The room is only acceptable. Not worth a stay but maybe one day pass.

Just four days on the journey, it is too fast! Because happiness is always very fast! In the village, the children are very caring and caring, very exciting and active, very memorable and memorable! Mom and Dad can stay away from the children for a while and enjoy the journey. I am very grateful to the minsclub staff! Breakfast, lunch and dinner are very delicious, all the staff are very very warm

Excellent Hotel and Friendly Staff Everywhere it's a Must Visit - Beautiful Clean Beach and lots of Sport Activities and Entertainment all around.

My second experience in clubmed. Good experience but not excellent. Facility is a bit too fashion, maintainence has good room to improve, service is well organized but not as much as the one in Malaysia, choices of food is also a bit disappointing. Probably not so recommended if u r not living in Singapore.

Really nice place for a family vacation! My kids enjoyed the kids club big times, great food, nice shows...

Great people,good food, great entertainment. Jono the "Boss"Sam the guy at water sport, Kevin Risk....great Yoga classes, Tino at the Restaurant,Xoli with Water aerobics,best Bar facility... Clean beach...lovely garden and to many GO's

Free alcohol and meals. Not much choice of activities. All the facilities of activities can be bored after 4th days of stay. Best duration of stay is 4 days, 3 nights.

Fantastic place for a short getaway. Will definitely come again.

What a beautiful place Bintan Island is, another relaxed holiday with Club Med, no worries about extra $ for drinks with alcohol package as it s all free, don t need to think of what to eat, it s all prepared fresh for you daily, resort outlook is good, rooms generous size, bed comfortable & showers hot.
There are 2 large pools & the beach. Golf at the nearby Ria Bintan 27 hole course with wildlife a plenty. Lots of resort activities - Trapeze, Archery, basketball, tennis, soccer & a host more.
GO s put on nightly shows which are all well received. Staff are all very friendly & helpful.
Nothing to do here but just Relax

More for those who love the sun, sea and outdoor /water activities

A beautiful structure with always smiling and helpful staff

Will do a review on TripAdvisor later... FANTASTIC people and place to visit

The best beach getaway if you want a fuss and stress free holiday.
