Premium Holiday at Montigo Resort Batam

Peeve of something is really pointless.

Create your own story, then you will know there are so many ways you can do, to get a happiness.

Yeah, beginning of this year, maybe we got same problem with domestic flight tickets price. Now its getting higher in Indonesia. The choice is, go to holiday with an expensive price of flight ticket or choose a vacation in a classy place in the area where we live. So based on the best choice, me and my friend decided to choose a vacation at a luxury resort located in the Nongsa area, namely Montigo Resort.

At this time, Montigo Resorts has two resorts in Indonesia. First, Montigo Resorts Nongsa at Batam, and second is Montigo Resorts Seminyak at Bali. Its under auspices of the KOP Limited SGX Catalist. Located in Nongsa, the northern coast of Batam. Just need 5-minute drive from the Ferry Terminal Nongsa Point Marina to Montigo Resort.

When I arrived, the weather was quite hot that afternoon, but returned refreshed after I drank the welcome drink with the ginger and lemongrass flavor given by the Montigo staff. After the check-in process, we were taken to the room using buggy because this area is very spacious. If walking, it feels very draining. Buggy services are available for all guests staying.

There are so many games to choose at Tilo Kids Club, such playing at wading pool, private cabins stocked with board and video games, and communal spaces offering fun-filled activities such as guided arts & crafts. It's free and available for children aged from four to twelve years.

Dinner at Tiigo Beach Club

Located at the tip of the resort with a view overlooking the sea and has a swimming pool in the front. Unwind in the comfort of shaded outdoor loungers, at the sand park or on the cabana beds. The perfect time to relax and enjoy the beautiful view of Tiigo Beach Club is in the afternoon, where we can see the beautiful orange light, down to the horizon. Sunset at Tiigo Beach Club is very charming. Tiigo Beach Club open from 9.00am to 23.00pm.
