Banyan Tree Bintan sits within the Laguna Bintan enclave on a hillside still covered by old-growth rainforest, looking straight out over the South China Sea. Its villas are raised on stilts among tall trees, which gives guests a degree of seclusion that is hard to find elsewhere on the island. The architecture draws on traditional Indonesian forms, with plenty of timber and natural materials.

Good to know

  • Villas with a private pool or spa tub and views of the sea or the jungle
  • A private beach in a sheltered bay
  • Banyan Tree Spa offering Asian-style treatments
  • Laguna Bintan golf course just a few minutes away

The resort suits couples, honeymooners and anyone looking for quiet time in nature. Families with small children often find the neighbouring resorts, with their bigger kids' programmes, a better fit. The drive from Bandar Bentan Telani ferry terminal is short.
