BINTAN ISLAND, INDONESIA Bintan Lagoon Resort has launched a new private ferry service to Singapore, with the vessel docking at the resort's beachfront.
Two high-speed ferries with a capacity of 266 passengers are scheduled to make the 70-minute journey twice daily. Ferries depart from Singapore’s Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal to Bintan Lagoon Resort at 9:30AM and 1:40PM, while trips back to the city from the island are scheduled at 10:40AM and 3:40PM.
Business events groups of up to 150 will also benefit from a Fast Track Service that will enable the entire group to go through the immigration process in five minutes or less with the help of an immigration officer. An express check-in system is in place where members of big groups receive the key to their room while on the ferry as well. Upon arrival, luggage are immediately delivered to their respective rooms.
"With the new, high-capacity ferry service, travelling to Bintan's largest MICE resort is now more convenient, with each way of the journey reduced by 30 minutes,” said Roland Jegge, Worldhotels executive vice-president Asia-Pacific. “And the resort's comprehensive range of facilities renders it a one-stop destination for both corporate and leisure travellers."
Located on Bintan Island in Indonesia’s Riau Archipelago, Bintan Lagoon Resort boasts world-class facilities including an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus and Ian Baker-Finch, 300 hectares of lush gardens available for paintball and quad biking activities, spas, as well as conference and private function rooms.
